Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 128
“I saw that you were working and didn’t want to disturb you.”
A look of embarrassment washed over Catherine’s face upon hearing the angry words. However, she realized this was all her own fault.
“Indeed, you’ve disturbed me at work.” Shaun crossed his arms in front of his chest, acting as if he was annoyed and impatient to have been interrupted.
Hadley, who was watching this on the side, was undeniably shocked.
‘Boss, you’ve been waiting several days for this. Stop acting! Or you’ll get anxious again if she walks away.’
In order to ease the tense atmosphere, he smiled. “Miss Jones, is that a gift for Mr. Hill that you’re holding?”
“Yes, um, not really. I made him lunch.” She quickly retrieved the lunchbox from its bag.
Shaun began fiddling with the ink pen on the table. His eyes shone with ridicule. “But I remember a certain someone saying she’s not trying to please me anymore, hence she’s not obligated to prepare my meals.”
She clenched her teeth at the sudden attack. “Mr. Hill, I didn’t know better in the past…”
“What did you call me?” he said, tapping the pen against the desk. His words reeked of intimidation.
This caught her by surprise. “Shaun?”
He smiled coldly again, still looking displeased.
Catherine was at a loss of what to say. It was surely difficult to understand what was going on in this man’s mind.
Hadley really felt like rolling his eyes. One of them was pretentious while the other one was slow. Watching their interactions made him anxious. “Miss Jones, you can call him the way you used to in the past.”
“Shaunny?” She finally realized.
However, this infuriated the man and he threw a cold stare at his assistant. “Have you not got work to do? Get out.”
“Sorry.” Hadley lowered his head before scurrying out of the room.
