Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 560
Catherine noticed the receptionist’s gaze. She said insistently, “I’m still going up even if he’s busy.”
She headed straight upstairs.
When she pushed the office door open, Shaun’s upset voice sounded from inside. “Who allowed you to come in without knocking—”
Before he finished his sentence, he stopped abruptly when he saw Catherine.
Catherine saw what was happening in the office. Sarah was sitting on Shaun’s lap. That scene was so disgusting that she wanted to throw up again even though she just did in the morning.
“Young Madam…” Sarah stood away from Shaun’s lap frantically. “I’m sorry…”
“Stop pretending, Sarah. Don’t you feel even an ounce of shame for seducing a married man?” Catherine could not hold it in anymore. She rushed over and raised her hand to slap Sarah across her face.
However, Shaun grabbed her wrist halfway.
He stared at her coldly. “Catherine, who do you think you are? How dare you hit Sarah? Get lost.”
He flung her arm away hard. If Elle had not held on to Catherine, she would have fallen to the ground.
“Eldest Young Master Hill, you can’t do this. Young Madam is pregnant,” Elle reminded him.
“She was the one who didn’t stay at the manor and came out,” Shaun said in annoyance.
Catherine showed a sorrowful smile. “Do you think I wanted to? My husband is accompanying another woman and hugging her. How could I sleep? Were you with her last night as well?”
Shaun averted his gaze and did not answer her. However, him remaining silent meant that he was tacitly agreeing.
At that instant, Catherine was enveloped by despair and sadness. Her face was as white as a sheet.
Shaun’s thin lips moved. For some reason, he felt an ache in his heart.
