Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 264
Catherine had been feeling guilty over the way she treated Wesley.
She stood in front of the ward with flowers and fruits. When she was about to knock on the door, she suddenly heard a woman weeping softly in the room.
“Don’t cry, Mom.” Wesley comforted his mother.
“How can I not cry? You’re the only son in the Lyons family. I was expecting you to carry on the Lyons family’s lineage, but look what has happened. I wonder who exposed the matter regarding your kidney? All the women who initially wished to marry you are now shunning you. Nobody wants to marry you either.”
Wesley replied, “It doesn’t matter, Mom. Anyway, I don’t feel like getting married yet.”
“I was the one who gave birth to you. Do you think I’ll buy it? You can’t stop thinking about Catherine, right? You even risked your life because of her.”
“…”
Holding the basket of fruits tightly, Catherine listened to what Old Madam Lyons said next. “She’s not even concerned about you. You’ve been admitted to the hospital for days, yet she hasn’t visited you at all.”
“Enough, Mom. It’s my choice. Loving someone doesn’t mean you have to be with her. Protecting her and watching her live happily is more than enough.”
Catherine had a lump in her throat. Something seemed to be stuck in her throat, which made her feel uncomfortable.
Never did she expect that Wesley would be so deeply in love with her.
“Why are you standing here?”
Old Master Lyons snorted in annoyance behind Catherine out of the blue.
