Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 521 âShe didnât show up,â Shaun replied.
Old Master Hill snorted at the sound of that. âIs she still supporting Mason? Iâm really upset with her.â
Shaun refused to comment.
Lea was not stupid, she just loved and trusted Mason too much.
âWow, youâre having dinner. Grandpa, Grandma, guess who I met in the pub last night?â Both Willie and Liam suddenly walked in through the door. âI bumped into Saââ
He suddenly froze the second he saw Catherine and Shaun at the dining table. All color drained from his face instantly. When did this man start coming to the villa?
Liam, on the other hand, glanced calmly at the man before positioning himself next to Old Master Hill.
âWho did you bump into?â Old Madam Hill asked.
Willie inhaled deeply before replying, âUm⦠no one. Iâm starving. Aunty Yasmine, can you please pass me a bowl?â
Old Master Hill glared at him and gave a snort of disdain. âYou only know how to hang out in pubs.
Havenât you seen that the subsidiary companiesâ performance is declining? Why canât you two learn something from Shaun? Look at how well heâs managing Hill Electronics.â
Liamâs face fell and he clenched his teeth. Grandpa would never notice all the hard work he put in no matter what.
On the other hand, Willie did not seem bothered at all. âGrandpa, not everyone is as talented as him.
Australia can only have one richest man.â
âYouâre right.â Old Madam Hill sighed. She suddenly turned to look at Catherineâs belly and smiled. âBut the babies in Cathyâs belly will surely inherit their fatherâs great genes.â
Shaun patted Catherineâs head softly. âI donât care about anything else as long as theyâre healthy.â
âThatâs right.â
A complicated feeling materialized in Liamâs heart upon seeing that.
âOh right, Liam, even Shaun is going to become a father soon. When are you going to find a girlfriend and get married?â Old Madam Hill suddenly changed her focus on her other grandson. âIâve thought about it recently. Actually, the daughter from the Lowe familyââ
âGrandma, please stop introducing young ladies to me.â Liam covered his ears. âThe Campos family arranged several blind dates for me these days and Iâm about to lose my mind.â
Old Master Hill frowned. âWho did they introduce you to?â
âSomeone from the Yates family, daughters of some shareholders in Campos Corporation, and also a foreign woman.â
âWhat do you think?â the old man asked coldly.
Liam felt a shudder run down his spine. âIâm not thinking of getting married yet.â
âHmm, remember that youâre a Hill. We didnât raise you to become a tool for the Campos family,â Old Master Hill reminded coldly, âThe Campos family will also not allow an outsider to infiltrate their companyâs internal structure.â
Liam lowered his head to eat dinner.
In actuality, he had indeed thought about trying his luck in Campos Corporation since he was not being appreciated over here. However, Charlie was already a great candidate. Perhaps his position would be even lower in Campos Corporation than here among the Hills.
He truly felt like he did not belong anywhere.
After dinner, Old Master Hill rose to his feet. âShaun, come to the study with me.â
The man frowned before turning to Catherine. âYou can go take a rest first. Iâll join you later.â
âYou donât have to.â She walked toward the door indifferently.
Inside the study, Old Master Hill heaved a long sigh. âThe Campos family is not even trying to hide their wild ambitions now. They want to use Liam as a tool for consolidating connections through marriage.
Whatâs your opinion on that?â
âI donât care as long as people in the Hill family donât drag me down.â
ââ¦â
Old Master Hill was speechless.
Damn it. He should not have called for this discussion. This grandson of his was always testing his limits.
