Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 376 âCut the crap. Spill it. Who instructed you to do it?â Shaun pressed the gun to her forehead. His eyes were gloomy. âOne, twoâ¦â
âIt was Third Young Lady.â Aunt Connie collapsed on the spot. âThird Young Lady gave me the medicine and told me to put it in her porridge. She wonât die after eating it, but the wound will fester more and more until her bones are visible.â
Hadley gasped. The women of the Hill family were vicious, and he subconsciously looked at Catherine.
However, she suddenly smiled and asked, âAre my bones visible from my wound now?â
Aunt Connie looked at her face and trembled, not daring to take a second look.
âScram.â Shaun kicked Aunt Connieâs chest and then strode to the main hall.
As Hadley watched his silhouette, he knew that a storm was brewing.
He gritted his teeth and knelt in front of Catherine. âMiss Jones, Iâm begging you. Please stop Eldest Young Master. In order to save you today, he got people to surround the manor, and it has angered the Old Master. If anything happens to Valerie Hill, the Hill family will never forgive him. And if the Hill family works together with the other influential families in the capital, the Eldest Young Master will be finished.â
Catherine was stunned for a few seconds.
Shaun had the manor surrounded in order to save her?
To be honest, she really did not expect him to go against the Hill family for her.
But⦠So what?
From the start, it was he who forced her. She was the victim, so why did she have to be considerate of him?
âWhy does it matter to me if heâs finished?â Catherine looked at Hadley with hatred in her eyes. âWhat did I do wrong? I can ignore the fact that others call me a mistress and curse me for being a b*tch, but now my face is ruined. If it werenât for Shaun Hill, I wouldnât have ended up like this.â
Elle said helplessly, âIf something happens to Second Miss, Eldest Young Master will be finished. But the Hill family wonât let you off either, as well as your friends and company.â
Catherine gritted her teeth.
She despised Shaun, yet she had to plead for mercy on his behalf. How ridiculous.
Forget it. Who could she blame? She was the one who chose this path, not wanting to leave.
Hadley hurriedly said, âMiss Jones, you can have your revenge later, but nowâs not the time. Youâre surrounded by enemies. Only Eldest Young Master and you are on the same boat now.â
âFine, Iâll go.â Catherine finally agreed.
In the closed hall.
Shaun entered.
Lea said angrily, âNow that youâve saved Catherine Jones, can you get lost? Donât ever show your face in the manor. The Hill family doesnât have an ungrateful child like you. Iâll pretend that you were never born.â
Shaunâs dark eyes were not on her but Valerie, who was subconsciously hiding at the back.
Feeling his dark gaze, Valerie subconsciously turned toward the door.
âThird Aunt, I dare you to take another step.â Shaun pointed the gun at her back.
Valerie was so scared that her legs went weak. She hurriedly hid behind the Old Madam.
âShaun Hill, havenât you had enough?â Old Madam Hill was in disbelief. The heartache was visible in her eyes. âAre you going crazy again? How dare you point a gun at your aunt?â
âShaun, youâre really sick. My mom didnât do anything to you.â Queenie said in exasperation.
âThen ask her what she did.â Shaun walked towards Valerie. âLet me ask you. Why did you tell Aunt Connie to drug Catherineâs porridge thatâll ruin her face?â
Everyone was stunned, and Liam was at a loss. âThatâs impossible.â
