Let Me Go Mr Hill novel Chapter 51

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 51
Chase comforted the plaintiff with a cup of hot coffee.

“Why are you here?” A look of surprise took over Shaun’s face.

“Come on, I have a case in Courtroom 2 today. Can you pay more attention to me?” Chase grumbled, “By the way, why are you wearing a mask? Are you ill?”

Shaun declined to comment.

“Eh, it’s good that you’re being considerate and wearing a mask to prevent spreading the virus. Shaun, you’ve become more thoughtful since moving to Melbourne,” Chase complimented.

“What on…”

“I got bitten by a dog.” Shaun’s cold voice reeked of intimidation. He walked into the courtroom with big strides.

Chase burst out in laughter. Did Shaun think he could fool him? That man had evidently been bitten by a woman.

“…”

Catherine had just walked out of yet another interview, feeling lost and furious. She had spent so much time and effort on her education but still could not find a job.
