Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 179

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 179
Ethan continued, “I’ve asked around and I’m sure 500 million dollars is more than needed. Cathy, I don’t want to see you lowering yourself to that level. I disappointed you in the past for failing to protect you but I’ll do better starting from today.”

He had been struggling lately. Although there might be a chance that Catherine was no longer pure, he realized it was not her fault. After all, he only had himself to blame.

A complicated look flashed across her face as she returned the card. “I’m not going to accept you.”

“Cathy…” he replied impatiently, “Do you want to stay by Shaun’s side forever? You don’t even like him. Besides, think of how he looked at you the other day. He doesn’t even respect you. The man only thinks of you as a toy.”

“It’s not true that I don’t like him.”

She frowned. “He was just furious the other day.”

“Why are you taking his side?”

The shock was evident in Ethan’s voice, but he also sounded sorrowful at the same time. “Are you still upset at me? This is not the way to seek revenge. Be a good girl and stop this right now. Cut off ties with him and let’s go back to where we were before. I can start planning for our wedding right away.”

“Ethan, what nonsense is that? Have you lost your mind?!” Sonya dashed forward out of the blue and snatched the card from Catherine’s hand. Then, she slapped the man coldly across the face hard.

“The two of us have fallen to this state yet you’re giving her 500 million dollars? Are you crazy? This money is a chance for you to make a comeback!”

“Mom…” His face was as pale as a sheet of paper. “I don’t want to live with regrets anymore. Cathy is the only person I should treasure.”

“But she can’t be of help now that she’s powerless and poor,” Sonya said between sobs, “Your dad hasn’t been home lately. He only wants to spend time at that cheap woman’s place nowadays. Not to mention that you’re no longer in the picture to take over the company. How can I be satisfied? If you really marry this woman, that marks the end of your future!”

Ethan clenched his fists as his features grimaced in pain. “I don’t want to be with someone I don’t like just to fight for the Lowe Corporation.”

“Enough of that. You didn’t like Rebecca before but you still wanted to marry her in the end, didn’t you?”

Sonya retaliated without holding back. “If you dare to be with Catherine again, I’ll kill myself today by running into this door!”

“Please don’t force me…”
