Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1044 âItâs just a failure. With your capability, whether itâs in law or finance, it wonât be a problem for you to come back to Melbourne and become a big shot.â
âThatâs not it.â Shaun popped a bottle of beer and chugged it, his eyes red again.
Chase was startled. âWhatâs up with you?â
He had known Shaun for more than ten years, but this was his first time seeing Shaun cry. It was as if he saw a ghost.
âYou donât understand. I lost the most important thing in my life.â Shaun looked up and said bitterly, âChase, can you tell me about my past with Catherine? I want to know how we met, got closer, and fell in love with each other.â
âSure. Three years ago, you just came to Melbourne .â Although Chase was confused as to why he suddenly wanted to hear about Catherine, he still talked about it.
He talked until Shaun fell asleep, drunk.
He could not help but call Rodney. âAre you guys even brothers? You guys should accompany Shaun more since such a big thing happened to him. Look, now heâs here in Melbourne drinking his sorrows away.â
â Shaun is in Melbourne?â Rodney became upset. He only found out in the morning that Thomas instigated Young Master Kelly to beat up Shaun. He was currently looking for Thomas all over Canberra.
âYes.â Chase sighed. âRodney, I understand that you fought with Shaun because of Sarah, but youâve known each other for more than ten years. You guys are always there for each other whenever one of you is in trouble, no? Hasnât that happened to you before too?â
âChase, what do you take me for? Yes, I thought that Shaun was too cold-blooded before. But after something so big happened to him, I can still distinguish the seriousness of the matter. Iâm not a fair-
weather friend.â
âOkay, itâs good that you think that way.â
In Canberra.
After Rodney hung up the phone, his chest was about to explode in anger.
He was mainly furious at Thomas. How dare Thomas come back and bully Shaun when he had yet to settle the score with Thomas for drugging Freya the last time.
Thomas did not listen to him now either, and he did not have anyone capable in his hands. Hence, he could only reign in his anger and look for Sarah instead.
When he arrived at the seaside villa and saw the brand-new sports car parked in the yard, he became even more furious.
âRodney, why are you here so late?â Sarah, dressed i n graceful pajamas, came out.
She really did not want to see Rodney at this time, but he must be here because of Thomas. She really admired that stupid pig Thomas, who managed to get his hands dirty even when someone else was doing the dirty work.
âSarah, Iâm just here for Thomas. Where is he hiding?â Even when faced with her s*xy appearance, Rodneyâs beautiful face did not look like he was in a good mood at all. âDid you hear about Shaun getting beaten up?â
âShaun was beaten up?â Sarah was shocked, and pain flashed across her face. âI didnât know. Iâve been working at the hospital recently.â
Rodney said furiously, âThomas saw Shaun drinking last night and told Young Master Kelly about it.
What relationship does Young Master Kelly have with Shaun? He hates Shaunâs guts, so he immediately gathered his people to beat Shaun up.
I really donât understand why you have a brother like that. How many times has Shaun helped him? I f not for Shaun, he would be in jail by now. Just what the hell is going on in his mind?â
âIâm sorry.â Sarah looked embarrassed and bitter. âAfter that incident with you, Iâve been so angry that I havenât contacted him at all. He did call me, but I didnât answer. Rodney, I hate him more than anyone else.â
