Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1452
Shaun’s eyebrows furrowed.
Seeing the atmosphere going downhill, Catherine hurriedly said, “Okay, okay. Matthew Costner, have you finished eating? We…”
“I’m not done eating,” Matthew picked up his fork again.
Catherine’s words of ‘We’ll go first’ drowned in her mouth.
“Your last name is Costner?” Shaun’s eyes flashed. “What country are you from?”
“Why are you asking that?” Matthew picked up a piece of beef.
“Are you from the Costner family in Neah Bay?” Shaun narrowed his eyes.
“What Neah Bay? What Costner family?” Matthew looked confused. “I’m from Country L.”
Shaun was silent for a moment, but his exquisite eyes looked carefully at Matthew. He realized that between Matthew and Catherine, although one was a mixed-race man and the other was a beauty, and they were two different faces, when put together, they seemed to look slightly alike.
“What are you looking at?” Catherine asked curiously.
“Are you looking at how handsome I am?” Although Matthew revealed a playful face, his heart sank.
He felt that Shaun might have noticed something.
“It’s nothing. Babe, I’m hungry, ” Shaun turned to Catherine. “I haven’t eaten dinner.”
“Then let’s order more dishes, ” Catherine added a few more dishes. However, because Shaun had a bad stomach, she put them all in the non-spicy mushroom soup pot.
Matthew was surprised. “You live here yet you can’t eat spicy food?”
“The country is very big, there are many others who eat light food too. There are Australians who don’t eat vegemite either,” Shaun explained casually.
