Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 89

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 89
This took Freya by surprise. “Have I upset you?”

“You didn’t upset me but you’ve pushed me into a grave!” Catherine, who had lost control, started screaming. “Shaun is not Ethan’s uncle at all! You got the wrong person!”

“No way…” Freya did not know what else to say.

“I met Ethan’s uncle today and he turns out to be Wesley Lyons. I was given the project to design his villa in Green Mountain not long ago.” Catherine felt like crying at the moment. “What went wrong that led you to make this mistake? My goodness.”

“…”

Freya resorted to silence as a shudder passed through her. She could not fathom why as she had heard it from her own brother.

…

Half an hour later, Catherine showed up in front of Freya as fast as a bolt of lightning.

The latter had already borrowed a helmet beforehand. “Here’s the rule. You can hit me but not on my face.”

The corners of Catherine’s lips twitched into a helpless smile. “Can I jump into the river together with you then?”

Freya winced pitifully.

“I’ve stood in the rain and reflected on my mistakes for the past 30 minutes. I’ve thought back to the scene when my brother pointed to me the man who was supposed to be Ethan’s uncle. There were two men walking alongside one another at that time. Shaun was definitely one of them. He had an overbearing manner and the poise of a king…”

“And so you naturally assumed he was Ethan’s uncle?” Catherine interrupted with a sarcastic laugh.

Freya lowered her head to the ground, biting her nails without realizing. “Well, it’s natural that I would make that assumption. The man standing next to Shaun was nothing in comparison…”

“Did that man look like this?”

Catherine found a photo of Wesley from her phone, which she had accidentally taken on the day they commenced the renovation process.

“Oh, I wasn’t really paying attention then.” Freya frowned as she gave it some serious thoughts. “It kind of looks like him. Yes, that was him. So he’s Ethan’s uncle?”
