Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 545
“I thought about that as well. But she didn’t boast about this the last time she came so I don’t think so.” Charity shook her head as a complicated expression took over her face. “She did say she wanted to steal Shaun from you and the position of Mrs. Hill. You should watch out for her.”
Catherine was startled. It appeared that her hunch was right. “Really? She doesn’t act that way in front of Shaun and his friends.”
“She’s always been this two-faced.” The corners of Charity’s lips twitched. “The three of them spoil her like a princess.”
Catherine scoffed. “I know. Oh right, did you know before this that Sarah wasn’t dead? She even became the world-famous psychologist, Nyasia. She’s the one treating Shaun at the moment.”
Charity looked genuinely shocked. “I really thought she was dead. Several years ago, she left to study abroad in Country M. She got kidnapped when she went to the forest with her friends. All of her friends were dead and the women had been… raped. But she survived. Why didn’t she contact her family or even Shaun? Instead, she lived in secret to become a famous psychologist. Something’s not right about this.”
Catherine’s brows furrowed upon hearing the story of Sarah’s disappearance.
All of a sudden, Charity said, “Catherine, give up if it’s exhausting. You’re all alone with no help. I’m worried you can’t compete with Sarah and will end up losing everything in the end.”
Catherine fell deep into thought.
Of course, she had considered giving up as well.
However, her heart felt an intense pain every time she thought about giving up Shaun to someone else, or when she imagined the image of him and Sarah being intimate.
Why should she have to give him up? He was her husband.
The father of her children.
Charity sighed looking at her. “I think you shouldn’t let her treat Shaun. It’s a long process and he has to spend a lot of time in his ex-girlfriend’s company. Sarah will surely create trouble at every chance she gets. You might not be able to handle her especially now that you’re pregnant.
Catherine smiled bitterly. That was exactly how things were going.
