Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 301

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 301
8:00 a.m.

Catherine walked into the villa with a yawn.

Melanie, who was eating breakfast, immediately got up and said, “Dad, look. I told you she went out last night and didn’t return all night. What kind of proper lady stays out all night? I think she might be fooling around outside.”

“…”

Catherine glanced at her and sneered in her heart. If Melanie had handled her boyfriend better, would Catherine still have needed to go there in the middle of the night to serve him?

“What’s that look for? Did I say anything wrong?” Melanie retorted righteously.

“No, you’re right. It’s because I’m not a proper lady. You were the one who called me a country bumpkin and an illegitimate daughter.” Catherine smiled and ignored her. She sat down at the table to have breakfast calmly and elegantly.

“Dad, did you hear what she said…”

“Stop arguing. I believe in Catherine. She already has a fiancé,” Joel interrupted with a cold face. “Besides, didn’t you used to always play around at night as well? You have quite some nerve to talk about her.”

Melanie flushed in embarrassment and stomped her foot in anger. “Dad, you’re too biased…”

At the side, Nicola’s phone suddenly rang. She answered the call and stood up angrily. “What? The plot of land was given to Hudson… What happened? Didn’t you say that Eldest Young Master Hill talked to them?”

Catherine froze and choked on her sandwich. Nicola had already hung up and was pointing at her. “Catherine Jones, what the hell did you do? Why was the plot of land on the coastline taken away by Hudson?”

“That can’t be.” Melanie was also shocked. “Is it possible that there’s someone else who dares to go against Eldest Young Master Hill?”

“Your uncle personally called me and said that the other party has suddenly changed their mind.” Nicola stared at her and said, “Catherine, you’re a girl who just arrived here and has no connections besides your father. You didn’t stay out all night to do something unseemly, right? The land doesn’t matter, but you can’t embarrass the Yule family.”

Hearing that, Joel also frowned at Catherine. He did not want to believe it, but it was something that even he could not control, so it was really quite fishy.

Catherine looked up with a calm face. “Aunty, are you saying that I slept outside last night in order to get the land? In that case, whose company did you think I sought?”
