Let me go, Mr. Hill By Shallow South Chapter 1778 Catherineâs feelings were complicated. âShaun, didnât my dad tell you yesterday? He doesnât wish for us to be togetherâ¦â
âHe did, but itâs not your dad that I want to be with anyway. His words canât affect me at all. Moreover, he has already gone to the company. The negative news regarding the fire that broke out at the company has affected his company greatly. He has no time to care about me at all. I reckon he has to work extra hours until late at night these days.â
Shaun was confident.
Catherine touched her forehead. He really did know how to take advantage of the situation. However, it was true that Joel might not have the time to care about Shaun now.
âBut I already told you last timeââ
âYou indeed said it clearly enough. Itâs precisely because itâs too clear that Iâve come to understand my thoughts. â Shaun bent over and went near her ear. He whispered, âIâve already approached other women but I realize that youâre the only one that I want to have s*x with. What is love if this isnât it?â
Catherineâs face heated up from his flirtatious words.
She glared at Shaun. âYouâre overthinking. All men want to sleep with pretty women as soon as they see one.â
âCathy, not all men are like that. Those who are controlled by their lower body are sex maniacs. Iâm not.
Itâs only because I like you and I love you.â Shaunâs dark eyes were filled with affection. âYou can reject me, but I have the right to pursue you. I didnât pursue you before because I thought I didnât have the right to do so. However, I think Iâm qualified now.â
âWhy do you think so?â Catherine was puzzled.
âFirstly, I can protect you. Secondly, I wonât lose my memories again. I wonât let my memories be altered by anybody else too. Thirdly, I have ample time now. I can slowly pursue you.â
He held three fingers up and said everything confidently.
Catherine was speechless. She could understand the first two reasons, but something was off with the third one. â Shaun, youâre still young. You should have a job and a career. I think you should return to Hill Corporation. Itâs the fruit of your efforts, after all.â
âNo, Iâm not interested in having a career right now. I just want to be a good husband who does the laundry and cooking at home.â
Shaun gazed at Catherine with his hands in his pockets. âBy the way, do you have any clothes that I need to wash?â
â⦠Thank you, but Iâve already washed them.â
âYou can just leave it in the future. Let me wash your clothes for you.â After Shaun spoke, he returned to the kitchen to cook lunch.
Catherine had a headache.
She called Aunty Cally over. âAfter this when Shaun sends Suzie and Lucas to preschool, can you get the security not to let him back in?â
After a moment of silence, Aunty Cally said, âMiss, the security guard didnât let him in. He climbed over the wall himself. After he came in, he kept helping me with various chores. Heâs such a huge person that I canât chase him out.â
Catherine really had to hand it to Shaun.
The wall of her house that was three meters tall could not even block him out. What other ways could there possibly be?
âForget it. Iâll just take it as thereâs an extra helper in the house whoâs providing his services for free. Itâs a waste not to use him anyway.â Catherine sighed. She could only think of it that way.
After having the cake and fruit juice, Catherine rested for a while. Then, it was already lunchtime.
Shaun served the dishesâfish, chicken wings, and vegetable soup.
The dishes had bright colors, and the taste was not bad as well.
After Catherine had her fill, she went upstairs and changed into a denim maxi skirt, pairing it with an almond -colored knitted sweater. She also put on makeup.
She had been in an irritable mood lately, so she had not dressed up in a long time.
She even wore a pair of earrings and a necklace that day. Her skin was fair, and her face was plump with collagen. Her features were stunning as well. After dressing up, she was so pretty that her looks could surpass even those celebrities on television.
