Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 405
Old Master Hill let out a long sigh after the others left.

Old Madam Hill poured him a glass of water. “Well, at this age, you might as well give up all power. To be honest, none of the younger ones is more capable than Shaun. It isn’t worth losing our title as the most affluent family for this.”

“It just infuriates me that the young lad is such a rebel.” He patted his heavy chest. “But he’s ruthless, that’s for sure. No one else in the family can compare to him. Lea has the potential but she’s nothing in comparison to him.”

“He has to be ruthless to maintain his position in the country’s most affluent family.

…

Hotel parking lot.

Upon entering the car, Catherine could not help stealing glances at the man sitting next to her as she fastened the seat belt.

He drove the limited edition sports car today. The cool, high-tech driver’s seat enveloped his sturdy figure. She had to admit that this man was too attractive, especially the way he spoke at the engagement ceremony earlier… How charming!

She saw this face every single day yet his impeccable beauty still made her heart race.

How frustrating.

What happened to playing cool?

“Look at me all you want. There’s nothing wrong with appreciating your husband’s good looks. I won’t comment on anything.”

Shaun turned sideways to catch her stealing glances at him once again. The corners of his lips curled into a mischievous smile.

“I wasn’t looking at you. I was just stretching my neck. It feels rather stiff.” She looked out of the window casually after saying that.

He pinched her palm playfully as a burst of joyous laughter escaped his mouth. “Were you enchanted by your husband’s charm just now?”

“You’re making things up…” Before her voice trailed off, he grabbed her by the chin and locked his lips with hers.

This man… Would he ever stop?

A dangerous intent filled his eyes.

‘Catherine Jones, is this what you meant when you said you have no choice but to return to Shaun?’

She could not even bring herself to kiss Wesley on the lips.

Yet look at how much she was enjoying this intimate act with Shaun.

In short, she had lied to Wesley. She never intended to leave Shaun! She only had eyes for that man even if it meant she had to suffer.

If that was the case, why had she given him hope from the start?

Right at this moment, Wesley’s heart was filled with hatred.

He slowly rolled up the window and shut his eyes. “Let’s get going.”
