Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1011 Joel said, âThe Holt family is planning to buy Hill Corporation for a song while the Campos family is secretly inciting the matter. Now, all the wealthy families in Canberra are just waiting to watch the drama unfold.â
As Catherine listened to Joel, she was increasingly disgusted by those wealthy families in Canberra.
âAlas, poor Suzie. I shouldnât have let her return to the Hill family.â Joel sighed. âAnyway, donât overthink it. Have a great life with Wesley in the future. Donât let him down again.â
âMm.â Catherine lowered her head.
When it was time for dinner, Wesley drove over.
The minute Wesley saw Suzie, he held her up happily. âSuzie, why donât you come to my house with your mommy tomorrow?â
âOh, okayâ¦â Suzie answered by stretching out her voice, neither happy nor sad. She just felt that Wesleyâs house was not her home. âMommy, are you going to move to Uncle Wesleyâs place?â
âSuzie, go and have dinner with Lucas first.â
When Catherine sent Suzie away, Wesley gazed at her with a gentle look. âWhatâs wrong?â
âWesley, I might⦠have to move over only after some time.â Faced with a dilemma, Catherine explained, âI could bring Suzie here today only because I promised Shaun not to bring her over to yours to stay. Iâm sorry, but I canât leave Suzie alone. A lot of things have been going on in the Hill family recently, and sheâs been lonely because nobody keeps her company.â
â I thought it was a serious issue.â Wesley touched her head with a smile. âAlthough you canât move to my place, I can move here. Itâs still the same, and you can move to my place once Suzie returns to the Hill family.â
Catherine froze and could not quite catch what he said.
âDonât you welcome me?â Wesley raised his brows all of a sudden.
ââ¦No, no.â Catherine was rather confused. âBut I have two children sleeping with me at night. The bed might not be able to fitâ¦â
âItâs fine. I can sleep in the guest room.â Wesley did not make things difficult for her. Catherine nodded.
âHowever⦠You canât just accompany your kids all the time and ignore me.â Wesley extended his hands and wrapped them around her. With an affectionate tone, he added, âCathy, Iâm also a normal man.â
ââ¦Alright.â
Catherineâs face flushed as she felt awkward.
Particularly when Wesley hugged her, she could smell a faint masculine scent from his body, which somehow reminded her of Shaunâs scent.
In fact, she was not averse to Wesleyâs hugs before she got married.
However, she had been with Shaun every day of this month. Moreover, since Shaun enjoyed kissing her i n particular, she had slowly gotten used to his scent.
As this thought struck her, she suddenly shuddered. She could not behave like this anymore.
âBy the way, when are you going to the police station, Cathy?â Wesley asked abruptly. âThe case of Shaun kidnapping you isnât over yet.â
Catherineâs head began to hurt. Only then did she experience how difficult it was to remarry while having two children.
âWesley, I⦠I donât plan to sue him. Suzieâs birth certificate is with the Hill family. If Shaun goes to jail, Suzie will have no one to depend on. I donât think you know that Liam has gone missingâ¦â
This time, Wesleyâs elegant and handsome face froze in spite of himself.
âCathy, have you thought about how the public will see us if you donât file a lawsuit against Shaun?
They will criticize you for being indecent even though youâre married. They might even think that you havenât gotten over Shaun. As for me, it clearly shows that Iâve been cuckolded. Canât you justâ¦
consider things from my end?â
Given that Catherine rarely saw Wesley getting so indignant, she was at her witsâ end. âBut I need to think about it from Suzieâs end too.â
âBut I donât think youâve even gotten over Shaun. â A miserable look washed over Wesleyâs face. â
Cathy, when you went missing for the whole of last month, what worried me most was not whether you slept with Shaun but whether you fell for him again. No matter how much Iâve done for you, Iâm always the lowest on your list of priorities. â
