Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 232

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 232
Several women who were married to wealthy businessmen soon surrounded Catherine and buttered her up.

“Chairwoman Jones, where did you buy this gown? It’s beautiful!”

“The necklace you’re wearing is from Tiffany and it’s the newest design, right?”

“…”

“Good evening, everyone.”

All of a sudden, Janet held a glass of red wine and walked over to Catherine with ill intentions. “Ah, Chairwoman Jones, I didn’t expect that you’d have the leisure to participate in the auction. Hang on, I’m not sure if I should still call you Chairwoman Jones now.”

“It’s been a while since we last met, Madam Wolfe.”

Shortly afterward, the bunch of women gave excuses and left the spot promptly.

“You must be panicking, right? You probably didn’t expect that you’ll lose the position of chairwoman when you’ve just begun to enjoy it.” Janet smiled complacently and then turned to look at the handsome Shaun. “Mr. Hill, I advise you to stay away from her so that you won’t be dragged into this mess.”

Shaun raised his eyebrows indifferently
