Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 123
After carrying her to the backseat of the car, Shaun stretched out his hands to remove Catherine’s drenched shirt.
Catherine subconsciously stopped him, her eyes expressing embarrassment.
“Stop moving around and shut up. Let me take a look.” Shaun used one hand to press on her arm and the other hand to undo her shirt forcefully. Her originally snowy skin was filled with bruises at that point, which made her look miserable.
Shaun somehow felt a tight sensation deep down, and his face looked extremely grim.
Catherine could not be bothered about him. She only felt embarrassed about her unsightly bruises at that point.
“Are you done looking?” She struggled in shame. Upon moving slightly, she felt so much pain that her face turned pale.
“You’d better be obedient.” Shaun directly threw her drenched clothes to one side. He swiftly took off his sweater and windbreaker, then put them on for her.
The moment he touched the wounds on her body, she gasped in pain.
“Does it hurt badly?” With this tragic outcome, Shaun then added, “Remember the pain and learn your lesson.”
He warned her so that she would not leave him just like that again. He felt the need to make her understand that she would be safest only when she stayed by his side.
Nevertheless, Catherine was under the impression that Shaun wanted her to bear in mind not to get tricked anymore. She gnashed her teeth obediently and remained still while suppressing the pain.
Shaun was quite satisfied that she was listening to his advice.
He opened the car door and got out, saying to Freya, “Sit in the back of the car and take care of her. I’ll drive.”
…
The car traveled on a busy city street in the wee hours.
