Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 598
”D-Damien, help me.” Intimidated by Joel’s twisted face, Nicola quickly hid behind Damien.
Joel turned around to glare at his brother. “Damien, I really didn’t expect this from you. It’s heartbreaking. We’re brothers! I’ve given you everything you wanted since we were young, and this is how you repay me? You’re a monster!”
“B*stard! How dare you do something disgraceful like this? Have you no shame?”
Old Master Yule smashed the glass onto the ground in a fit of rage. The Yule family had become the laughing stock of the entire business industry.
“Damien, I’m really disappointed in you,” Old Madam Yule said bitterly. “Nicola, I’ve misjudged you. I wouldn’t have let Joel marry you if I knew.”
Nicola replied grudgingly, “I loved Joel more than anyone could imagine, so much that I had no choice but to do this so that I could marry him…”
“You show your love… by carrying my brother’s child, so you can marry me?” Joel began laughing so much that tears formed in his eyes. “How unfortunate of me to have met you. Get out of my sight! You and your daughter both!”
“Dad…” Melanie’s face was as pale as a ghost.
She was about to take over the Yule Corporation a few seconds ago, yet everything changed in just a blink of an eye. “Dad, I have no idea about this. I’ve always treated you as my father. Please don’t leave me.”
“Are you sure you didn’t know?”
Catherine walked toward the other woman with a smile. “Three years ago, when dad fell into a coma after the accident, you and your mom didn’t even visit him once. Even Dr. Angelo, who was treating Dad at that time, almost died from a fire. If I hadn’t requested the doctor to treat Dad in secret, he might still be unconscious now.”
Flustered, Melanie quickly shook her head. “No, I did visit him. I…”
“You were busy trying to get married to Charles.”
Catherine interrupted, “You even laughed in my face when the news of Dr. Angelo’s death was publicized. You ridiculed me for hoping dad will regain consciousness. I bet you already knew by that point.”
