Let me go, Mr. Hill By Shallow South Chapter 1778
Catherine’s feelings were complicated. “Shaun, didn’t my dad tell you yesterday? He doesn’t wish for us to be together…”
“He did, but it’s not your dad that I want to be with anyway. His words can’t affect me at all. Moreover, he has already gone to the company. The negative news regarding the fire that broke out at the company has affected his company greatly. He has no time to care about me at all. I reckon he has to work extra hours until late at night these days.”
Shaun was confident.
Catherine touched her forehead. He really did know how to take advantage of the situation. However, it was true that Joel might not have the time to care about Shaun now.
“But I already told you last time—”
“You indeed said it clearly enough. It’s precisely because it’s too clear that I’ve come to understand my thoughts. ” Shaun bent over and went near her ear. He whispered, “I’ve already approached other women but I realize that you’re the only one that I
want to have s*x with. What is love if this isn’t it?”
Catherine’s face heated up from his flirtatious words.
She glared at Shaun. “You’re overthinking. All men want to sleep with pretty women as soon as they see one.”
“Cathy, not all men are like that. Those who are controlled by their lower body are sex maniacs. I’m not. It’s only because I like you and I love you.” Shaun’s dark eyes were filled with affection. “You can reject me, but I have the right to pursue you. I didn’t pursue you before because I thought I didn’t have the right to do so. However, I think I’m qualified now.”
“Why do you think so?” Catherine was puzzled.
“Firstly, I can protect you. Secondly, I won’t lose my memories again. I won’t let my memories be altered by anybody else too. Thirdly, I have ample time now. I can slowly pursue you.”
He held three fingers up and said everything confidently.
Catherine was speechless. She could understand the first two reasons, but something was off with the
third one. “ Shaun, you’re still young. You should have a job and a career. I think you should return to Hill Corporation. It’s the fruit of your efforts, after all.”
