Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 523

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 523
Half an hour into the film, Shaun’s phone rang out of the blue.

He retrieved it from the pocket. Catherine stole a glance at it and noticed someone named Nyasia was calling him.

“I’ll take this outside.”

He walked out of the room and answered the call in a low voice. “Is something wrong?”

“Can I not call you just because?” Sarah’s disappointed voice sounded from the speaker.

“It’s not that… I…”

The woman on the other end chuckled. “I was messing with you. I did some research into your case during the day and came up with a treatment plan. Let’s start the treatment tonight.”

“Tonight?” He was surprised.

“Uh-huh. I came up with 30 treatment plans for now and they’re to be carried out at different times of the day. The condition gets more repressed at night and I think the human body is the most relaxed at this time, so it’d be easier for you to connect with your true feelings. Besides, it’s harder to treat your condition the longer we drag it on. Tonight’s the best time.”

He frowned and said after a brief hesitation, “Sorry but I’m occupied at the moment…”

“I see. Are you accompanying your wife? Sorry about that…” Sarah sounded flustered. “I almost forgot that you’re a married man now.”

“It’s fine. What about tomorrow night?” he replied.

“Sure.” She smiled bitterly. “I’m quite jealous of your wife.”

This took him by surprise. A complicated emotion materialized in his heart. If things had gone according to plans, Sarah would be his wife now.

Just as he was thinking about what to say to that, the person on the other end of the phone had already said goodbye and hung up.

He stood there for a few seconds before reentering the theater room.

Catherine lifted her eyes to look at him. “You guys found the psychologist Nyasia?”

“Yup. It seems like there’s a chance I can recover fully.” He hugged the woman.
