Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 61

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 61
Catherine ate the much anticipated spicy crabs with Freya until ten at night. Then, she headed home while feeling scared.

Afraid that she would disturb the man inside the house, she did not dare to switch on the lights.

“You came back early.”

Shaun’s tall and stalwart figure suddenly appeared at the door of the bedroom, and there was a definite edge in his voice.

Catherine got a shock and felt very guilty.

She wondered if he had spent a long time waiting for her to return home in order to ask about the one million dollars.

“When it comes to shopping, women tend to forget the time.”

Shaun switched on the lights in the living room, then glanced at Catherine for two seconds. He walked toward her and extended his hand.

“What do you want?”

Holding her breath, Catherine did not move at all. His body cast a shadow on her under the light, and the situation somehow seemed dull. However, after his burning index finger touched her lips, the atmosphere became romantic instead.

Well, what was the hint?

Shaun’s gaze flashed with sarcasm all of a sudden. He then stretched out his index finger to her.

Catherine gazed at the tip of his finger in a daze. His fingernail looked tidy and nice, but what was he trying to do?

She blinked. Puzzled, she gently bit his finger using her teeth.

Shaun’s body froze. He felt as though a strange electric sensation was traveling throughout his body at that instant. He stared at her with dark eyes which conveyed a look of disbelief. “What are you doing?”

“Isn’t this what you want?” Catherine let go of his finger and spoke in an innocent tone, “You touched my lips and stretched out your finger after that…”

Shaun was speechless.
