Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1324 Logan, who was having a churro, almost threw up.
His eyes swiftly swept over Shaunâs bandaged hand. Then, he widened his eyes in shock. âYoung Master Hill, this isâ¦â
âThis is my compensation to you. I told you before this, didnât I?â Shaun said indifferently. His light-
hearted manner made it seem as if he was merely compensating Logan with money.
Logan was dumbfounded. After coming to his senses, he gazed at Shaun in admiration.
He thought that Shaun was all talk at first because he was still as arrogant as ever even though the Hill family had collapsed. How could he possibly bear to chop off his finger to make it up to someone elseâs subordinate?
However, Shaun did it.
âYoung Master Hill, I know the true reason why you did it. Anyway, itâs really admirable, and I hardly ever admire people. Youâre the first, â Logan said sincerely.
âI donât want to owe anyone, especially you. Although youâre just in charge of protecting Cathy, I know youâre the one who kept her and the kids safe and sound all those years abroad.â Shaun lightly rubbed the wound on his hand, and it hurt. However, he felt less guilty now when facing Logan.
Logan raised his brows. âItâs fine as long as you donât repeat your old mistakes. I, too, hope that sheâll be happy from now on. After all⦠I feel that her life has left her exhausted.â
As soon as Logan finished speaking, he tossed the finger back to Shaun. âYou can keep it to yourself. I donât have the peculiar hobby of keeping other peopleâs fingers.â
After that, Logan headed straight to Hudson Corporation to look for Catherine.
Catherine walked out from a meeting with a few executives, only to see Logan leaning against the wall with both his hands in the pockets of his pants. His cool expression made the female employees who walked past him turn around to do a double â take at him.
âTsk. You and Austin are so handsome, yet you guys are gay.â Catherine felt sorry for the woman every time Catherine saw him. âNo wonder the netizens say that itâs not easy for a woman to get a man. Not only do women have female rivals but also male rivals.â
â If you feel sorry for those women, you can share Shaun with them to settle their trouble.â Logan bit his lip playfully.
Catherine rolled her eyes. âIâm ready to do so, but I donât think itâs fine by him.â
Logan sized her up intently a few seconds before he suddenly asked, âDonât you know about it?â
âKnow about what?â Catherine was puzzled.
âHe still hasnât told you, huh?â It struck Logan that Catherine was unaware of it.
âWhat?â Catherine recalled her conversation with Logan, and her expression darkened. âIs Shaun cheating on me again?â
âWhat do you mean by again? He was previously hypnotized by Sarah, so technically, he didnât cheat on you.â
It was rare for Logan to stand up for Shaun, so hearing him say that made Catherine wonder if pigs could fly. âYou actually spoke up for Shaun. Donât you hate him?â
âIâm not a petty person anyway.â Logan looked into her eyes and said with mixed feelings, âWhatâs more, he has made it up to me.â
Catherine was increasingly bewildered.
Logan lifted his hand from which one finger was missing. âThis morning, Shaun returned a finger to me, and it belonged to him.â
Startled, Catherineâs head began to buzz. It took her a long while before she came back to her senses.
âHe chopped off one of his fingers,â Logan added plainly. âWhat did you tell him yesterday? I was quite surprised that he did this out of the blue.â
âYesterday?â
Catherine recalled that Shaun suddenly mentioned Loganâs finger when they had a barbecue together.
After that, her spirits sank, and she barely spoke to him.
There was a knot in her heart that was too painful to untie.
However, she did not expect Shaun to chop off his finger for real.
She thought that he was all talk. After all, it was a finger, not a strand of hair or a tree.
