Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 195
Catherine felt like crying out of embarrassment.

She quickly glanced around after the kiss finally ended, only to realize the others had already gone off to one side to play a game of dice.

Chase laughed cheekily. “Come on and join us now that you’re done kissing. We’ve already completed a few games since.”

She felt her cheeks flushing once more. “No,” Shaun replied lazily and buried his face into her long hair. “We’re heading home.”

“Not yet. Freya’s been drinking. I need to give her a ride home.”

“Get a taxi.”

She hesitated briefly before refusing. “No, she just had a fight with her boyfriend and I promised to send her home. I can’t ignore her because I’ve got you.”

A look of displeasure flashed across his face again. “What do you mean? Am I less important than your friend?”

“…”

‘Of course, friends are important too.’

Despite that, she kept the thought to herself and replied in a cutesy voice, “Hey, stop overthinking things. We don’t come out and have fun that often. There’s so much more I want to tell you.”

Without holding back, she told him everything she learned from Aunty Wendy in the past few days.

The corners of his lips twitched into a cold smile as he understood the big picture now. “It appears my getting injured at the construction site last time wasn’t an accident either but a set-up from the Jones family. Well, well, well, how dare they trick me?”

The last person who caused him harm was no longer in this world. The Jones father-and-daughter duo was too ambitious.

He pulled out his phone to search for Hadley’s number.

“What are you doing?” she asked.

“Taking care of the Jones father-and-daughter duo.”

The arrogance was evident in his voice. She quickly disconnected the call. “Don’t act on impulse. The Jones family is too influential at the moment and you can’t afford to offend them. Besides, they’re planning to combine forces with the Campbell family through marriage. They’re even disregarding Melbourne’s most powerful Harrison family.”
