Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 680 Catherine chuckled. Even the blood in her body felt⦠pumped up.
The night was going to be interesting.
After three years, the familiar people were all gathered in the same place.
Wesley raised his glass toward her from afar. Soon, she received a WhatsApp message from him: [I know what youâre aiming for, so I didnât approach you. But Iâll be watching out for you.]
Catherineâs heart warmed.
Liam, who wore a white suit, walked toward her gracefully and passed her a glass of wine. âI didnât want to come at first, but I immediately came when I heard that youâd be attending. Itâs lively tonight.â
âItâs quite lively indeed. I like it very much.â Catherine took a sip of wine before the corners of her mouth lifted into an attractive smile.
A gleam flashed across Liamâs eyes. All of a sudden, he sighed regretfully. âHad you not gotten married to Shaun in the first place, I wouldâve surely married you. If I were to woo you right now, the Hill family members would definitely tell me off. No one would be able to accept two brothers marrying the same woman.â
âLuckily, you didnât woo me. I wouldâve been pressured.â
âWhy?â
âBecause I have too many suitors.â Catherine glanced at the men who were staring at her from the sides. âLook, there are so many guys who are trying to hit on me.â
âTsk, it canât be helped. Youâre now the woman who has beauty, talent, and net worth in Australia.â Liam extended his hand to her. âAre you interested in dancing with me? I want to be the most envied man tonight. Do give me this pleasure.â
âOkay.â
Catherine put her hand on his wide palm, and both of them walked onto the dance floor.
They took the floor like a perfect couple. They instantly attracted many peopleâs envy and gossip, but both of them ignored all of it and started a conversation instead.
âSay, why did you come today? To trash the party?â
Catherine rolled her eyes. âItâs Times Corporationâs gala. If I trash the party, Iâll be kicked out of this community. I just want to sing a song and play the piano.â
âYou know how to play the piano?â Liam coughed. âThey invited Cindy to perform tonight. Sheâs a professional.â
âThatâs even better. I want to perform after her.â Catherine was determined. âI wrote a new song, and it sounds pretty good. Can you think of a way to arrange it for me?â
Liam almost danced a step wrong. âMy little sister, are you trying to provoke Cindy? Itâs even newly written. Do you think of yourself as a musician?â
âYou donât believe me?â Catherine glared at him. âI was the one who wrote Cindyâs famous songs. I was playing Balakirevâs Islamey before Cindy had even learned how to play Beethovenâs Moonlight Sonata.â
Liam had âwhat the f*ckâ written on his face.
âItâs a pity that she has forgotten to be grateful. I must teach her that today.â Catherine lamented.
âExactly what other skills do you have that I donât know of?â Liam was speechless.
âIâm a treasure. My love life was too arduous before, and my brilliance was impeded by others. Now, itâs my time to shine.â
Liam could not help but burst out laughing.
When Shaun and Sarah entered, they immediately saw Liam and Catherine in the middle of the dance floor. They were dancing together like a couple who had a lot of chemistry.
One was as pretty as a princess, while the other was wearing a white suit like a prince.
Under the light, they talked and laughed. From time to time, Catherine would say something that made Liam laugh out loud. She also had a charming and relaxed smile on her face.
That scene pricked Shaunâs heart badly.
At that moment, he had the urge to rush up and yank them both apart.
