Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1178 âIf I intervene in this matter, itâll be very awkward for the Mead and Snow families if this gets out of hand. Brother Shaun will be put in an awkward spot too.â
Ryan was in a dilemma. He explained, âYou donât understand. There are so many people here tonight.
Since Hannah dares to do this, she mustâve gotten her parentsâ permission. Sheâs their only daughter.
The Mead family dotes on her a lot. My dad and the Mead family are on the same boat now. There canât be conflicts between us.â
Catherineâs scalp tingled. She was still slightly angry. âWho let him attend the party in the first place?
Itâs none of my f*cking business. Just let Hannah give him relief. Maybe he can even play up to the Mead family.â
In the end, Shaun was the one who got into this trouble himself. Why must she be the one to handle it?
The bathroom door abruptly opened.
Shaun had already taken off his outerwear. He just had a shirt on him, and the buttons were all open, exposing a large area of his muscular chest. Water droplets were all over his flushed face. It was as if flames were burning in his eyes.
âIâm not here to play up to the Mead family.â
Shaun fought back the agony, which felt as if bugs were biting his body. He gazed at Catherine deeply.
âYesterday, you were the one who said⦠youâll be coming today. Thatâs why I came.â
Catherine was taken aback.
She recalled him asking her if she was free today the day before yesterday. She said that she had to attend Senator Meadâs daughterâs party.
He came here because of her?
While she was in a daze, Shaun closed the door again. He leaned back on the door. His distressed, hoarse voice could be heard. It made the two women blush with their hearts pounding.
Freya felt like she could not continue listening anymore. She even wanted to clean her ears. âErâ¦
Cathy, why donât you go in and help him out?â
Catherine glared at Freya in embarrassment. Did Freya know what help she would be giving if she went in?
âThatâs right, â Ryan said hurriedly, âIf Hannah comes looking for him here, sheâll surely realize heâs inside if she hears his voice. At that time, sheâll definitely want to provide him relief. Men are capable of doing irrational things when they lose control. There are many guests here tonight too. Hannah will surely force Shaun to take responsibility.â
Freya cleared her throat. âYou donât want Hannah to be Suzie and Lucasâ stepmother, right?â
Catherine did not want that, but asking her to do it with Shaunâ¦
Furthermore, Wesley was just downstairs. She could not bring herself to do such a thing.
Her brain was in a mess like mush.
Bang! Bang!
Suddenly, there was the sound of someone knocking on the door from outside. Hannahâs voice could be heard. âRyan, are you inside?â
Catherine and the othersâ expressions changed. Ryan gritted his teeth. He could not think too much about it anymore. He opened the bathroom door and pushed Catherine inside.
Freya was startled. âYouâ¦â
âIf sheâs unwilling, she can still come out. Letâs talk again after we dodge this oncoming problem.â Ryan touched his nose helplessly.
Freya was speechless. Nevertheless, after Catherine went in, the panting sounds did get softer. Tsk, could it be that those two were already⦠Ahem.
Seeing that Ryan was going to open the door, Freya ran over to the sofa and sat down. She acted like she was eating fruits and watching television.
The door opened. Hannah immediately walked in. When she saw that only Freya was there, she could not help but feel that it was weird. She said, âRyan, what were you doing inside here with your godsister? You even locked the door.â
Those ambiguous words almost made Freya choke on a mango.
â Sis, be careful.â Ryan nervously poured a glass of water for Freya in a hurry. Then, he patted Freyaâs back gently.
Hannah watched that scene with a profound gaze. â Have I⦠interrupted something?â
âNo⦠â Freya could not resist retorting furiously, but Ryan beat her to it and said, âMy sister isnât feeling too well. My mom asked me to accompany her here. Hannah, why are you up here and not downstairs enjoying your birthday party?â
