Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1016 âThink about it. Donât you think this person is quite scary?â Chester darted a glance at Rodney.â Weâre all fighting in the business industry, and those who have succeeded are all crafty and unyielding.
Wesleyâs company has only been around for a few years, yet it is now a leading company in Australia. I still remember when Golden Corporation was set up in Canberra a few years back, a lot of people looked down on it. Itâs not clear when he gained a foothold in Canberra. But these days, heâs always present in social gatherings involving prominent figures in the business industry.â
ââ¦Precisely.â Rodney was enlightened by his reminder.
âWhatâs more⦠Do you remember when Catherine came from Melbourne three years ago? She was Wesleyâs fiancée at that time, but Shaun later snatched her from Wesley. Then, during Wesley and Catherineâs wedding, Shaun came to seize her in public again. It was a slap in Wesleyâs face. Do you think any man could put up with that?â
âYeah.â Rodney recalled the incident and nodded. â Chester, if thatâs the case, Wesley is actually very manipulative. Since he could mess with Shaun in the police station, it shows that heâs not simple. If he keeps targeting Shaun, itâs going to be troublesome.â
âWhatâs worse is that heâll secretly deal with Shaun while looking calm on the surface.â
The two of them did not say anything else until Shaun was pushed out of the emergency room. He did not lose consciousness, but his face was as white as a sheet.
After entering the ward, the doctor said helplessly, â Weâve performed debridement and suture on his wound. Considering that his wound is quite severe, I canât tell if heâs still potent.â
âWhat do you mean? I wonât be able to do it anymoreâ¦?â It came as a real blow to Shaun.
âYou canât say that either. Itâs⦠not definitely the case.â The doctor glanced at him pitifully. âYou need to be optimistic.â
Shaun laughed sardonically.
The doctorâs words did not seem to offer him comfort.
Did this mean that all he could do now was to keep an optimistic attitude?
In fact, he was not the kind who had a desperate sexual urge. Even before Catherineâs return, he was fien with not sleeping with any women for a few years.
However, at the thought of his possible importance, he wondered what right he had to win Catherine back. What was the poing of asking her tobe with him again?
To become a widow?
It seemed that God did not want to bring him together with Catherine again. First, it was Hill Corporationâs collapse, and now, it was himself. Ha!
He must have hurt Catherine too much back then, so God wanted to punish him and make him grow old alone.
He was suddenly plugged into dejection.
He had initially planned to bounce back come what may. After all, he was still young to make a comeback with Hill Corporation. Only then could he have the nerve and confidence to win Catherineâs heart back. Neverthless, he had now lost the motivation to work hard.
âDonât be like this, Shau.â Rodney had never seen Shaun in such a state before. Shaun had always been arrogant, so much that it made others feel like punching him. However, Rodney noticed that self- confidence had vanished in Shuanâs eyes. He did not look so disheartened even when his microchip was stolen.
âYeah. Youâve managed to have your earlier mental illness cured, so with the current technology, this can be cured. â Chester consoled him. âI know a lot of well-known doctors. Trust me.â
âThank you. â Shaun laughed bitterly. âIf it hadnât been for the two of you, I would probably still be in the police station. I never thought that Iâd end up in this state.â
â It was all because of that woman.â Rodney could not help mumble. âIf you didnât bring Catherine to the island and stayed in Hill Corporation until the microchip was a success, the Campos family wouldnât have taken advantage of it.â
âDrop it,â Chester warned Rodney.
Rodney let out a sigh.
Shaun remained silent, knowing that Rodney was just telling the truth. However, he did not regret what he did. If he were given another chance, he would do the same thing again. At least he was happy during that one month.
