Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1325 Was Shaun dumb?
Logan noticed that Catherineâs pretty, confused face gradually paled, and he could not help but let out a sigh.
âTo be honest, when you got back together with Shaun, I wondered if there wasnât a better man in this world. I didnât understand why you had to cling to him. But frankly speaking, he may have been tricked by Sarah back then, but he does truly love you now. If it werenât for you, how could he have brought himself to chop off his finger? He did that for the sole purpose of reducing the distance between you and him.â
Catherine, of course, grasped his point.
She had verbally agreed to get back together with Shaun these few days.
In fact, she did it for the sake of the children. Moreover, he had been pestering her so much that she could not do anything nor be bothered to oppose him.
However, she had not yet opened her heart to him.
Logan shrugged. âWhen you returned from overseas, you kept saying that you wanted to take revenge on him before getting back together with him. However, I could see that you were swayed. It was because he chopped off my finger that you totally gave up on him.
âActually, Iâve long since gotten over it. Youâre the one who hasnât, and itâs probably because you think that youâve dragged me down with you and failed to protect me. But I hope that the two of you can patch things up this time.â
After he was done speaking, he turned around and walked in the other direction.
A few steps later, he turned around again and added, âI just came from his place, and he didnât look so good.â
Catherine stood frozen for a while until Harvey came over and said, âchairwoman Jones, General Manager Wolfe wants to ask you out for lunch and talk about businessâ¦â
â âIâm not available. Iâm taking today off, and I wonât be back in the office.â
Catherine then tossed the document to him and immediately left the office.
She drove directly to Hill Corporation.
Once she arrived, she took the elevator to the top floor and kicked the office door open.
There were five to six executives inside, and all of them cast bizarre gazes on her.
âCathy, what brings you here?â Shaun instantly stood up. There was a look of surprise on his slightly pale face.
âPresident Hill, weâll leave now. â The executives excused themselves knowingly.
When the executives left, they were still gossiping in whispers.
âIt seems like Young Master Hill has gotten back together with his ex-wife.â
âDuh. Rumors were flying about it earlier. How could it be fake?â
âHey, I have never seen Catherine come to look for Young Master Hill before, but now, Iâm convinced. â
âDo you guys think Iâm deaf? Hurry up and get out. â Shaun glowered at the bunch of executives impatiently before he slammed the door shut.
Then, he asked delightedly in a gentle tone, âCathy, has Logan told you something?â
âWhich hand did you chop off your finger from? Show it to me.â Catherine ordered glumly.
âThereâs nothing much to see. Itâs grotesque, and it might give you a fright.â Shaun retreated awkwardly.
He had never experienced such poor self-esteem until he looked at her foxy face at this moment.
âShaun.â Catherine lifted her reddened eyes and stared at him. âWhy didnât you think that it would frighten me when you chopped off your finger?â
Shaunâs exquisite, thin lips quivered. At last, he stretched out his hand obediently.
Among the positions of his five fingers, there was one empty spot wrapped with a thick layer of bandage.
