Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 273
The door was pushed open with a bang.
Old Madam Hill came in and said in a huff, “You’re actually hiding in here! I’m purposely holding this banquet for you so that you can pick your future wife, but here you are hiding silently. Are you not planning to get a wife?”
“No,” Shaun answered indifferently.
“…”
Old Madam Hill was overwhelmed by fury. “You have to go out now even if you don’t feel like doing it. Since you’re the eldest grandson in the direct lineage of the Hill family, you must get married. Sarah is already dead. When are you going to stop putting this off?”
Shaun, who was flipping through the document with his slender fingers, paused for a moment.
Old Madam Hill tore the document apart and tossed it aside. “You can work anytime but not today. Go and pick a woman tonight, or I’ll bang my head in front of you until I die.”
“Granny…” Shaun rubbed his forehead. This was exactly why he had not wanted to return. As a man who was going to turn 30 soon, he was always being forced to go on blind dates.
Previously, he deliberately got Catherine to deal with it for the time being. However…
At the thought of the woman, Shaun’s eyes darkened.
Since he was going to get married sooner or later, it seemed that marrying earlier or later would not make a difference.
Perhaps he should listen to his grandmother so that she would feel more at ease.
“Alright.”
He rose to his feet and walked out with Old Madam Hill.
With great delight, Old Madam Hill took him to the second floor to observe the women below. The situation was just like how an emperor selected a consort in those days. “Take a look at the ladies below and pick one you’re interested in.”
