Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1454
Shaun lowered his eyes full of guilt. To put it bluntly, the scars he inflicted on her would always be there. “Cathy, I was angry today because I was afraid of losing you. Think about it. If one day, I lied to you and said that I was eating with a colleague, but you found out that I was actually eating with a young girl you don’t know, would you feel uncomfortable?”
Catherine bit her lips. If she were in his shoes, she would indeed feel uncomfortable.
“Sorry. I… won’t meet him in the future.”
“There’s no need for that,” Shaun rubbed her head and suddenly smiled. “Didn’t you say it yourself? You think of him as a younger brother. I should trust you more. Just don’t lie to me next time.”
“You really… won’t mind?” Catherine was stunned.
“Only him. It doesn’t apply for others, ” Shaun said faintly. “Don’t worry, although I agree for you to continue meeting him, I’ll never eat or go out with other young girls alone.”
Catherine’s heart softened at his words. She stood on her tiptoes and took the initiative to hook her arms around his neck, and kissed him on the lips. “ Thank you, Shaunny. Don’t worry. At most, I’ll help Matthew have a look when he wants to buy a house. He really doesn’t know much about the capital. If he invites me for dinner, I’ll call you too. If you don’t go, I won’t eat alone with him either.”
“Okay.” Shaun felt his mouth taste as sweet as honey from her kiss.
If they were not in a public area, he wanted nothing more than to pull her into his arms and give her a long and hot kiss. “Cathy, did you say that he wanted to buy a house in Canberra?”
“Yeah, he said his parents would come back and settle down for a while,” Catherine said.
