Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 905
Late at night in the clubhouse.
When Chester finally found Shaun, he was already drunk. However, the man was still holding a bottle o f liquor in his hand and pouring the contents into his mouth.
“Stop drinking. Your stomach won’t be able to stand it.” Chester took away the bottle of wine.
“Give me the bottle!” Shaun’s drunken eyes were slightly red. He patted his chest hard and his voice was hoarse. “Only the stomachache will make it so it doesn’t hurt as much here. I’m not a f*cking human. How could I have… hurt her like that?”
There was a complicated look in Chester’s eyes. Despite knowing Shaun for so long, it was the first time he saw Shaun… crying.
He was really crying.
“Don’t say that.” Chester sat beside him and lit a cigarette. “No one expected Logan Law to be framed.”
“Chester, do you think… this was all Sarah’s doing?” Shaun looked at him blankly. “I don’t want to suspect her, but if she hadn’t said that she wanted Logan’s finger, I wouldn’t have chopped it off. If Thomas hadn’t asked me to take on the lawsuit, I wouldn’t have appeared in court today. It’s because of all this that I can’t go back to Catherine.”
“I don’t know either, but if it’s really Sarah, then the way she hides her true colors is too f*cking scary. I’m afraid not many people can scheme using death. But there really is no trace of those people. Sarah and Thomas shouldn’t have such ability.”
Chester took a large breath. He also grew up with Sarah and thought of her as a younger sister in his heart. In his mind, she was simple, innocent, and kind.
However, all the things that had happened recently also made him begin to suspect that maybe Sarah had changed.
“If it’s not her, then who is trying to use Logan to get Catherine and me to break up? Who would benefit from Catherine and me breaking up?” Shaun’s lips curved. He did not want to suspect Sarah either, but he had to admit that it was possible that Sarah had planned this incident.
Even if it was not her, after the incident, the Neeson siblings had deliberately fanned the flames to worsen the conflict between him and Catherine.
