Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 98
Ahhhhhhhh were the heavens playing a trick on her?
Ethan’s uncle liked her, but she had married the wrong person!
She was riddled with scars. How would she be in the mood to move on to another relationship?
“I… I’m sorry, Mr. Lyons. I… I only think of you as a friend.”
“I’m glad that you do.” Ethan was a little disheartened, but he continued to smile. “It’s okay. I didn’t confess to you because I wanted you to accept me. I just want you to understand my feelings so I can pursue you.”
Catherine felt her head throb. “But I have no intention of dating now. I want to focus on my work.”
“I can wait for you. Alright, let’s sit down and order first.” Wesley gentlemanly pulled out a chair for her.
Catherine was helpless and could only lower her head and order her meal.
…
At the intersection outside the window of the restaurant, a Ferrari was waiting for the red light.
Sitting in the passenger seat was Shaun Hill, whose dark eyes suddenly hardened when he took a glance outside.
“Turn left. We’ll eat at that western restaurant by the roadside.
“Oh, that won’t do. We have an appointment with Mr. Jackson to talk about the case.” Chase followed Shaun’s gaze and looked over. He instantly understood why the temperature in the car had suddenly dropped. Shaun was jealous.
“Cancel it,” Shaun’s eyes were cold as ice as he ordered.
Chase could only do as ordered and stop the car after turning in.
When the two appeared at the door of the restaurant, the receptionist froze for a moment.
It was her first time seeing two young and handsome men coming together to eat at the restaurant… Could they be in… that kind of relationship?
The receptionist looked regretful but said politely, “Would you like the couple booth?”
