Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 88
Besides, Ethan could not bring himself to imagine Catherine being with another man.

“Uncle, I think you’ve gone mad. Some people are not as innocent as they appear on the surface—”

“I’ve had more professional experience than you and I’m also a few years older than you, so you can stop telling me what to do,” Wesley interrupted the man softly.

“Moreover, what kind of a man are you to slander your ex-girlfriend who basically grew up with you?”

“In other words, I knew it was Ethan who betrayed your love. I’m truly sorry about that. Of course, after working with you on the villa project, I came to realize that you’re a talented woman worth appreciating.”

“Then why did you lie about being his distant relative?”

“I know you hate him, hence I didn’t want you to hold a prejudice against me,” he explained truthfully. “My admiration for you is genuine!”
