Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1018 When Catherine was looking at a menâs suit, someone tapped her from behind.
Freya smilingly appeared beside her. âItâs been more than a month. Tsk, absence really does make the heart grow fonder. You finally asked me out.â
âAlright. I just want you to help me pick a menâs shirt.â Catherine took a blue shirt and asked, âWhat about this?â
âThis shirt looks young. If youâre not buying this for your dad, it has to be either for Wesley or Shaun, â
Freya responded after glancing at it.
Catherineâs face fell. âDo you think Iâll buy it for Shaun? Iâm getting it for Wesley. I made him angry, so Iâm planning to buy him a shirt and apologize to him. But I donât know his size. Sigh.â
âDonât bother buying a shirt, then. If itâs for a man, you should buy a watch instead. Come on. Letâs go and pick a nice watch.â
With that, Freya dragged her out of the store. Catherine thought it through for a while and felt that a watch would match a manâs identity better as well. âDid I interrupt your work by asking you out this afternoon?â
âPlease, Iâm a director as well as Rodneyâs fiancée. I can leave whenever I want. Who would have the guts to stop me? Whatâs more, Rodney is busy bailing Shaun out of the police station. Heâs too busy to concern himself with the companyâs affairs.â
Catherine furrowed her brows. Freya and she seemed to mention Shaunâs name very frequently.
Just as Catherine was about to change the topic, Freya suddenly moved closer to her and whispered into her ear, âI heard something happened to Shaun in the detention center. He was even sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.â
Catherine was stunned. âWith his skills, how could something have happened to him? He should be able to deal with ten people easily.â
âI have no idea, but his injuries seem quite severe.â Freya added, âWhen I had a meal with the Snows the other day, I heard Aunty Wendy mentioning it. Oh well, what goes around comes around.â
Catherine was dazed, but in the end, she forced herself not to dwell on it. âStop bringing Shaun up.
Iâm not interested. Come on, take a look at the watches.â
âTsk. I just wanted you to cheer you up.â
âAs long as he doesnât come looking for me, Iâm happy.â
Catherine eventually chose a Patek Philippe SA watch.
Catherine was about to return home after they both had dinner, but Freya held onto her. âAccompany m e to a place. Letâs go.â
Only when they arrived at the venue did Catherine realize that it was an auction, and all the wealthy families in Australia were gathered here tonight.
âWhy did you bring me here?â Catherine pulled a long face.
âPlease, the Hill familyâs manor is up for auction tonight. I canât afford it, but it wonât stop me from watching the fun.â Freya dragged Catherine in excitedly.
âHold on. Let me buy a cap.â Catherine stopped her. âIâm sure Melanie and the rest are here as well. I donât want to see them. Iâm afraid I might be disgusted.â
âThatâs true. Now that her husband, Charlie, is the most influential young master in Australia, I guess she has become very uppity.â Freya bought the same cap as her as well, and with sunglasses on, both of them walked into the private room on the second floor, keeping a low profile.
There were many items up for auction tonight, with the Hill familyâs manor being the last one.
During the auction, Catherine headed to the restroom and happened to come across Lea and Mason.
However, they were not a loving couple anymore. Mason had his hand wrapped around a lovely young woman beside him, who was none other than Joanne Holt. Both of them seemed like they were trying to put Lea in a difficult position.
