Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1528 âDo you not care, or⦠are you afraid of failure?â
Catherine spoke boldly. Just as she finished speaking, she felt Titusâs bone-chilling gaze on her.
She really felt a sense of danger and intimidation that she had never felt before.
âYouâre trying to provoke me.â Titus smiled coldly. Suddenly, he bent down, and his tone was harsh. âTo be honest, if you let my son sleep with you for a night, maybe Iâll consider your request.â
Catherine frowned. âIâm sorry, but Iâm here to negotiate with you and not to talk about s*x. I think youâre mistaken.â
âThe mistaken one is you. Youâre the one begging me now.â Titus was expressionless.
âYes, Iâm begging, but I have my principles. Money can be earned again if itâs lost, but if all principles are gone, thatâs beyond saving.â
Although Catherine regretted coming, she had tried her best, and she accepted the reality of things. â
Since youâre not willing, forget it. However, I hope you can consider it properly. After all, no king in history hated having more territory.â
She took two steps back after she spoke. âSorry for disturbing you, President Costner.â
After she finished speaking, she turned around and left.
Titus stared at her silhouette for some time. Then, he got in the backseat, deep in thought.
He had to admit that Catherine was quite unique.
Hill Corporation was almost driven into a corner, yet she still kept that poor pride of hers when negotiating with him.
Perhaps she was playing hard to get, or since Hill Corporation was not hers, she could only do so much.
On the road, Titus gave Matthew a call. âGet over here.â
Matthew quickly returned to the villa.
That day, Sheryl had brought Rebecca shopping. Titus wanted to go to the bank for an inspection, so he did not follow. However, he did not expect he would meet Catherine because of that.
âDadâ¦â Seeing his fatherâs expression, Matthew knew that Catherine had gone to look for his father.
Before Matthew could finish his sentence, Titus grabbed an apple from the table and threw it at him.
âHow dare you leak my whereabouts to your motherâs enemy? Youâre quite amazing, huh?â
Matthew was so startled that he jumped aside to avoid it. âDad, I didnât mean anything by that. I just wanted for you to meet Catherine.â
Titus snorted. âYou want me to save her, right? Matthew, donât forget how much your mom hates her.
She caused your grandmotherâs death.â
âDid my grandmother really die because of Catherine? I donât think sheâs that kind of person.â Matthew mustered his courage and muttered, â Didnât you meet her today too?â
