Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 161

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 161
“Do I have the clutch of a devil?” Shaun’s handsome face darkened.

“Cough. I was wrong.” Chase slapped his mouth meekly. “Anyway, how dare Hudson hurt you without giving an explanation?! I’m definitely going to mess up their property development project.”

“I heard that Hudson has turned from a small business into one of the top 500 global enterprises within a decade. It has been doing well over these years all because there’s a mysterious powerhouse supporting it,” Hadley suddenly said, “The powerhouse is from Canberra.”

The statement gave Chase a shock. Shaun bit his thin lip. “Yeah. He’s right. Go and find out whether what happened today was an accident or human error, Hadley.”

Catherine was momentarily stunned. “It was probably an accident since I didn’t offend anyone in Hudson. Apart from the Jones family, Janet, and Cindy, I don’t think I’ve offended anyone in Melbourne.”

“…”

The corners of Chase’s mouth were raised. “Sister-in-law, you’ve offended quite a handful of people, huh?”

The number of people she had offended was slightly less than that of Chase who was domineering.

Catherine felt awkward.

Shaun glanced at her and said arrogantly, “It doesn’t matter. As long as you’re under my wing, I’ll protect you even if you’ve offended everyone in Melbourne.”

Although Catherine found that it was too presumptuous of him to make this remark, she was slightly touched deep down.

She gazed at him with a flushed face, not knowing what to say.

Hadley and Chase were speechless too.

As bachelors, they felt that their presence was unnecessary.

“Cough, cough. Hadley, we’d better leave.” Chase coughed while clenching his fist. “Since Shaun got injured while saving Cathy, Cathy will have to take care of Shaun. Am I right, Cathy?”

“Yeah, yeah. I will.” Catherine quickly nodded.
