Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 279
Catherine glanced at Shaun incredulously, only to find him smiling. It soon turned to a somber expression as he waited to watch the drama unfold.

She gritted her teeth. What a wicked man he was! “Excuse me, I’m a few months older than you. Clearly, my mom got together with my dad much earlier. Please watch your mouth. Also, I didn’t seduce him.”

“Hah, are you saying that Elder Young Master Hill is playing a joke on you?” Melanie criticized Catherine in a huff. “Just look at Elder Young Master Hill’s status. He’s a prominent figure whereas you’re just a cheap person. I’ve met a lot of b*stards like you who are of low rank yet ambitious.”

Catherine lowered her eyes, her lashes shaking slightly.

Shaun frowned in spite of himself. He was suddenly annoyed even though he was the one who wanted to pull a prank on Catherine.

Previously, he could not form an impression of Melanie. Right now, however, he only felt that she was irritating and ill-mannered. She did not behave like a young lady from an eminent family at all.

“What are you guys arguing about?”

Joel and Nicola walked in upon noticing the commotion.

“Dad, Mom, you guys came at the right time. Catherine was actually trying to seduce Young Master Hill,” Melanie immediately complained, “Mom, she even mocked you by calling you a mistress.”

Nicola’s expression changed drastically in an instant. The reason why Joel married her back then was a taboo subject for her. “You’ve gone too far, Catherine. I’ve been treating you quite well since you came back. I even deliberately bought you branded clothes which you’re wearing right now. That’s very ungrateful of you.”

Joel’s brows furrowed. “Could there be a misunderstanding…”

“What misunderstanding? Elder Young Master Hill said it himself.” Melanie stomped her feet. “Despite having a fiancé, she still behaves indecently. How shameless!”

“Fiancé?” Shaun asked with a smile. Only those who knew him well could feel the hostility in his gaze.
