Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 158

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 158
After burning the offerings, Shaun suddenly stood in front of Granny Jones’ tombstone and kneeled down somberly. His thin lips moved slightly as if he was saying something.

Catherine was slightly surprised. Although her grandmother was an elder, she really did not expect him to do something like this with his high and mighty attitude.

An unknown feeling flashed in her heart. “What did you tell my grandmother?”

Shaun glanced at her. “I said, as long as you stay by my side obediently, I’ll protect you so that she can rest easy.”

Catherine could not help but pout. “Forget it. It’s enough if you can have more trust in me.”

When they came down from the mountain and passed a tombstone, Shaun saw the picture on it and suddenly paused. “This woman…”

“Oh, she’s my aunt.” Catherine stopped to pay her respect.

“She looks quite similar to you,” Shaun said.

“Yeah, my grandmother also said that my aunt and I look very alike.” Catherine shrugged.

Shaun pondered before saying, “Actually, I don’t think you look like your mother. Jeffery and his wife don’t seem to treat you well either. Are you actually your aunt’s daughter?”

Catherine was stunned but immediately shook her head. “That’s impossible. My aunt never got married and passed away at a young age. How could she have had a daughter? Forget it. There are vicious parents out there everywhere.”

Shaun fell silent.

After the two went down the hill, Catherine looked up apprehensively and said, “I want to go to work today, can I?”

Shaun frowned. “You don’t have to be so careful in front of me in the future. You just need to stay away from Ethan Lowe and Wesley Lyons and all those from the opposite sex. Also, you have to answer my calls no matter what.”

“…Okay.”

Catherine nodded obediently. She would just let it be. Only by quickly earning more money could she have the courage to leave him once and for all.
