Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 340

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 340
“Look at you. You used to be so bold, but you’ve been tortured by him so much you’ve become a little mouse.”

Freya was dying of anger. “I’ll tell you the truth. When I asked you to help her with the lawsuit back then, all the words I said were lies. She had nothing to do with it. I did it because if she went to prison, I wouldn’t be able to meet her anymore. She doesn’t know anything at all.”

Catherine rubbed her forehead and watched as Shaun’s expression darkened like ink. She stood in front of him. “Freya did it to save me. It has nothing to do with her, so don’t hurt her.”

“…”

Shaun saw how she was acting like a mother hen protecting her chick, and his heart became annoyed and depressed. Did she see him as a devil now?

“Move aside, I’m hungry.”

“Huh?”

“Did you not hear me? I said I’m hungry.” Shaun grabbed her hand and sat on the bench.

The table was full of spicy, grilled, and stir-fried dishes. He frowned. “Why isn’t there any food for me?”

She knew that he could not eat spicy food.

Catherine froze. “I thought you wouldn’t eat these.”

“I can’t help it. You like to eat these, so I can only go along with you.” Shaun picked up the fork and glanced at the table. He could only eat the oysters. He did not know if it was because he had not had a good meal in Country F, but after trying the oysters, he found that the taste was unexpectedly good. “Order another serving of oysters.”

Catherine and Freya exchanged glances in disbelief. Was he really just letting it go?

Then, Catherine ordered some non-spicy dishes for Shaun. She started to eat the crayfish with Freya.

The crayfish was delicious, but the shell was too hard to peel.

Shaun really did not understand what was so delicious about this omnivorous crustacean. However, he saw that her little face was showing a rare look of satisfaction so he reached out to take the crayfish from her bowl. “I’ll peel it for you.”

“Cough…”
