Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 180
Chase, the boss of the firm, grumbled, “Mr. Hill, you’re early today.”
Shaun walked toward the leather seat and mumbled softly, “Hmm.”
“…”
Chase was speechless.
Did the man fail to discern the sarcasm in his tone? Could Shaun at least show him some respect in front of all these attorneys?
“Don’t mind me,” Shaun said, raising his chin elegantly. At the same time, his phone vibrated.
He reached for his phone to find a WhatsApp text from Catherine. [Have you arrived?]
The corners of his lips curled upward. [Yup.]
Everyone in the meeting room dropped their jaws upon seeing the smile on his face.
What?!
They wondered who was texting with the usually indifferent man. To see a grin on his face was an unbelievable sight.
Chase, especially, had his curiosity piqued. He waved his hand dismissively in the air. “Alright then, that’s it for today. Continue working hard next week.”
“…”
The other attorneys were speechless.
He was still talking about improving work performance not long ago. What an irresponsible boss!
Since the meeting had ended, the rest of them gradually filed out of the room.
Shaun rose to his feet lazily, and Chase dashed toward him within seconds. “Who are you texting? What’s with that coquettish grin?”
