NovelBarLet me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 414
“Don’t worry, I won’t think too much about it. I’m in no state to think about anything else besides my dad
now,” Catherine cut him off nonchalantly.
He was not aware that she had known about Sarah’s existence since long ago.
She also understood that Sarah was deeply engraved in his heart.
That was why she would not feel uncomfortable.
She was over that period of discomfort already.
There was no use in trying to make her feel repulsed over that matter as well.
The dead could not fight against the living anyways.
“…Okay, that’s good then.” Despite saying this, Shaun’s heart still sank unknowingly.
He was afraid that she would misunderstand or overthink things. However, he felt uncomfortable seeing
her express no concern at all.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter all, the reason she would not overthink things might be because she did not love him enough.
He stared at her.
The annoyance in his heart was resurfacing.
He went out and smoked two cigarettes.
He came back half an hour later. Catherine was feeding some water to Joel when she heard the door
open. She glanced at him over her shoulder and then averted her gaze.
Shaun felt an uncomfortable feeling in his heart. He left the ward for so long, yet she was not even
asking why he had gone out. She was truly indifferent toward him.
However, looking at Joel’s state, he felt that it was a bit too much to think about this nonsense.
Therefore, he coughed lightly and said, “I gave a heads-up to Chester just now and asked him to
arrange for the best caregiver to take care of your dad. He’ll also contact the top leading specialists
overseas to discuss your dad’s condition…”
“Thank you,” Catherine said sincerely.
“There’s no need for you to thank me. You’re my wife. I’m just doing my part.” Shaun was dissatisfied
with her being so polite to him. “By the way, did you fight to take care of your dad because you were
suspicious of Nicola?”
“Yes, I suspect she might have found out that my dad wanted to transfer 35 percent of the shares to
me. A woman as selfish as Nicola, with Fergus behind her back, would do anything to protect her
gains.”
“Indeed.” Shaun nodded. “I already got someone to investigate the cause of the accident.”
Catherine looked deep in thought. “But… There’s another person who gives me an odd feeling.”
“Who?”
“Damien. When I asked to take care of my dad before, Nicola kept disagreeing and made a fuss. But
when Damien persuaded her, she suddenly agreed. I also think he kept changing the topic to help
Nicola, whether intentionally or not. When I first went to the Yule family’s house, he did steer the topics
to aim for me. Although he’s a man of few words, I think he’s not as simple as he looks.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter Catherine was done talking, she realized that Shaun was staring at her.
“What? Is there something on my face?” She touched her face.
“No, I just think that my woman’s senses are getting sharper.” Shaun pinched her small face. “As
expected of the woman I’ve fallen in love with.”
Catherine was speechless. She was not in the mood to flirt with him.
“Alright, I just couldn’t help praising you.” He withdrew his hand sheepishly and put on a straight face. “I
wouldn’t have noticed if you hadn’t mentioned it. This Damien wasn’t eye-catching at all. I heard that
he’s congenitally deficient. He was crippled at birth, so everyone in the Yule family is nice to him. Even
after growing up, he still lives under the protection of your dad and the Yule family. He’s not married
yet.”
“Why? He can’t have sex?” Catherine’s words were startling.
“…”
Shaun digested her words for a moment. Then, he said crossly, “Do you think it’s appropriate for you, a
lady, to discuss such things about other people?”
