Let Me Go Mr Hill novel Chapter 221

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 221
In the villa.

Shaun, who was having a video meeting in the study, heard the sound of a car from downstairs. He rose to his feet with his slender figure. “This plan isn’t feasible. Come up with another one.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he disconnected from the meeting and headed downstairs.

Muddle-headed, Catherine walked in through the door. She even forgot to change her shoes.

Shaun narrowed his eyes and gazed at her long black dress. Her snowy arms and half of her calves were revealed.

With a frown, he swiftly took off his coat and put it on her body. As he shifted his eyes downward, he suddenly noticed a snag on the hem.

“Why is your dress snagged?” His black eyes were fixed on her.

Only when she looked down did she notice it. Perhaps the dress had caught on something sharp when she crawled out of the window from the restroom just now.

“I accidentally snagged it.” Catherine averted her eyes, not wanting him to know that she had provoked Willie.

Shaun was just a lawyer, and he could not afford to offend the Hill family.

“You have the bad habit of looking away from me every time you lie.” Shaun held her slim waist tightly, his dark eyes conveying a stronger sense of fierceness. “You attended the anniversary celebration tonight, didn’t you? Who bullied you?”

“Nobody bullied me. Come on, who could bully me when I’m the chairwoman? I’m going to take a shower.” Catherine pushed him away and went upstairs.

“Don’t get on my nerves, Catherine.” Shaun dragged her toward him again. “Look how uneasy you are at the moment. You’d better explain to me if you treat me as your man.”

Catherine pouted, and her eyes reddened in spite of herself. “I offended someone whom I shouldn’t have offended in the whole of Melbourne. Shaunny, if… If… that person targets me, don’t ever think about helping me. You’d better deny all connections with me.”

Shaun raised his brows. “Who on earth are you referring to?”

“Willie from the Hill family.”
