Let Me Go Mr Hill novel Chapter 83

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 83
Catherine turned to look at Rebecca before chuckling again.

“You’re secretly jealous that I’m prettier than you, right? Say it outright instead of trying to throw subtle hints left and right all the time. After all, you only have to say it and someone else will do the dirty work for you, isn’t it? Then you can go off pretending to be weak and innocent again.”

“Catherine, that’s not what I mean. I’m genuinely complimenting you.” Tears of grievance were slowly welling up in Rebecca’s eyes.

Ethan could not watch this any longer. “Catherine, haven’t you had enough? You’re the only one being harsh to Rebecca since the beginning.”

“There, someone is stepping up to protect you now.” The corners of Catherine’s lips twitched into a meaningful smile.

Ethan widened his eyes in rage. Jeffery finally spoke up, “Alright, we still have guests around. Catherine, go to the private room to keep your Grandma company. Come out again when the ceremony starts.”

“I’ll leave after seeing Grandma…”

“You’ll have to feed her later,” Jeffery interrupted impatiently, “Your grandma became paralyzed after she fell not long ago. She can’t even feed herself now.”

This news hit Catherine like a bombshell. She could not believe what she had just heard. It had only been a month since she last visited her grandma. How could this happen?

“Why are you only telling me this now?!”

“What good would it have done? What else can you do apart from infuriating us?”

Catherine walked away coldly toward the private room. A gray-haired old lady was sitting in the wheelchair, staring aimlessly at the window. Another woman next to her was feeding her water.

Tears rolled down her cheeks. “Sorry, Grandma, that I only came to see you now.”

She had not visited recently to avoid making the old woman worry.

Apart from her grandfather who had passed away, her grandmother was the only person left in the Jones family who treated her well since young.

Ever since she was a little girl, Jeffery and Sally had been harsh and distant with her. Her grandmother was the only one who truly loved her without condition.

However, when she left to pursue further education abroad, her grandmother moved back to Plum Garden.
