Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 45

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 45
Shaun sent Catherine to the nearest hospital.

He clenched his fists while waiting for her outside the emergency room. Around half an hour later, the doctor came out of the emergency room and said, “Was she kidnapped? If she was sent here an hour later, even God wouldn’t have been able to rescue her.”

“She has been rescued?” Shaun sighed deeply with relief. A weight had finally been lifted off his heart.

“Yes, but her bodily functions have declined. Also, she’s having a persistent fever.” With furrowed brows, the doctor added, “She hasn’t had any water to drink for at least three days, and she probably didn’t eat much rice as well. What’s worse, the rice she had was mostly stale. It’ll likely take her half a month to recover.”

Not only was Shaun shocked, but Hadley was also dumbfounded. “Are the Joneses even human?”

Shaun’s handsome face fell. “Tell the reporters what happened today so that the world knows the Jones family’s true colors.”

“Alright.”

Catherine had a dream where she was almost dead. However, she received a warm hug from someone reluctant to let her go.

It was because of the warmth that she felt as if she had met a knight in shining armor.

It dawned on her that she was actually… still alive.

This was the thought that first struck Catherine when she opened her eyes.

At that moment, her body was covered with a warm blanket. There was a small lamp lighting up the ward, and the air conditioner was on. She was not in the old dark house.

“Catherine, you’re finally awake, you damned woman!” Freya leaped up to her with red eyes and said in a sobbing voice, “You keep being admitted to the hospital, and it’s always more serious than the previous admission. You really scared the hell out of me.”

“Was it you who found me?”

All Catherine could recall was that she felt dizzy and seemed to be burning. Her stomach had also been hurting very badly. She really thought that she would die.
