Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1171 âTsk. The previously arrogant Shaun has become so despicable now.â
âExactly. Tonight is interesting. Look, his ex-wife, Catherine Jones, is here too.â
The guests were discussing it in whispers.
Having heard it all, Shaun looked grim and pursed his thin lips. He pretended as if he did not hear any of it.
Senator Mead and his wife became flushed with embarrassment for a short moment. Senator Mead then said with a smile, âWelcome, Shaun. Well, I have yet to properly thank you for rescuing my daughter the other day.â
Ryan raised his brows and gave an evil smile. â Brother Shaun, it turns out that youâre the one Eldest Young Miss Mead is interested in. How unlucky of you.â
âStop talking nonsense.â Hannah glowered at Ryan before she pulled on Shaunâs arm. âLetâs go to the other side. Iâll introduce my friends to you.â
Shaun turned around to look at Catherine. Before he could take a good look at her, Hannah dragged him away.
At the sight of the scene, Catherine was simmering with rage.
F*ck! This despicable man had just flirted with her yesterday, but here he was attending Hannahâs birthday party. Hannah was even pulling on his arm so intimately.
He even claimed that he was not close to Hannah yesterday.
What a damn liar!
Of course, she did not dare reveal her feelings.
After all, everyone knew that she was Shaunâs ex- wife. Nearly everyone was secretly observing her, so all she could do was remain calm with a smile.
It seemed as if she sincerely wished her ex- husband happiness.
âCathy, letâs go over there.â Freya came to her and held her hand. âItâs been a few days since we last met. What have you been up to recently?â
Catherine took the opportunity to walk some distance away with Freya. However, she did not walk too far away. She arrived at the garden and watched Wesley through the French window in a low-key manner.
âHey, why do you keep staring at Wesley? Is it because youâve fallen for him so youâre afraid that someone will snatch him away?â Freya made fun of her with a snigger.
âYouâre overthinking it.â
After some thought, Catherine whispered the truth in Freyaâs ears.
Freya was shocked upon hearing it. âHow could it be? Wesââ
Catherine covered her mouth and warned her with a low voice, âYouâd better be careful. Donât ever let the cat out of the bag, especially not in front of him.â
âOh.â Freya lowered her voice and said, âBut if youâre right and Ethan wanted you to watch out for him, does it mean that Wesley is going to hurt you?â
âI have no idea as well.â A complicated look crossed Catherineâs face. âAnyway, no matter how good Wesley is at hiding, I think heâll probably reveal his true self during such an occasion. With so many influential figures here, Iâm sure heâll take great pains to butter them up.â
âYeah.â Freya came to a realization through Catherineâs words. âIâll help you keep an eye on him and also ask Ryan to probe him.â
âRyan?â Catherine smiled discreetly. âAre you close to this little brother who came out of nowhere?â
âHehe. The Snows are actually quite nice, except for Rodney, that dumb*ss.â Freya snorted with disgust.
âThat sounds like a good plan too. I saw Wesley fawning over Ryan just now. Anyway, donât let anyone know what Iâve just told you, â Catherine reminded Freya.
