Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1668 When Shaun lowered his head, Catherine retreated a little with her profile facing him. There were two strands of curly hair framing her fair cheeks, and he had a clear view of her elegantly thin neck as well.
All of a sudden, he found his mouth slightly dry. He was tempted to bury his head in her neck and kiss it.
âIâve fastened it. â Catherine looked up out of the blue.
When their eyes met, his gaze was burning fiercely.
Catherine was stunned for a moment before she poked his thin lips amusedly. âTell me, what were you thinking just now?â
Upset, Shaun bit his lip. He was rather embarrassed, but he answered her honestly, âI wanted to kiss your neck.â
Catherineâs face instantly turned crimson as she did not expect him to be so frank.
âWhy did you have such a thought? I was just fastening the seat belt for you, yet you started to overthink it.â She stared at him with coquettish eyes, which made his heart tickle.
Shaun gulped and fixed his eyes on her.
Catherine rubbed her head. âIâm in a rush now. Iâll accompany you tonight.â
âOh.â Shaun was confused even though he was unsure of what she actually meant by âaccompanyâ.
Anyway, he was glad that she would accompany him.
40 minutes later, the car arrived at the car park of the hospital.
Catherine brought Shaun to take the elevator while holding his hand. When she arrived at the ward that Hadley had told her, she happened to spot a few police officers inside.
Sally was accusing Catherine amid her tears. âIt must be Catherine, that wicked woman, who did it. No one would do such a thing except her. She hates us. She said that once weâre dead, our assets will be hers.â
âYeah. Itâs her doing. Go and investigate it right now. She must have hired people to do it.â Jeffery went along with what Sally said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Catherine dashed in with reddened eyes.
âDad, Mom, are you both okay? I got a fright when I learned that something happened to you both.â
Catherine looked extremely anxious.
The police officers were stunned. Sally was so exasperated that she wanted to sit up. Nevertheless, the second she moved, her tailbone hurt very badly. âCatherine Jones, how dare you come?! Officer, it was her doing. Hurry up and arrest her! â
The police officers were baffled. â I heard her call you âDadâ and âMomâ.â
âI⦠I donât acknowledge her as my daughter.â Sally nearly let out that Catherine was not her daughter.
âDad, Mom, itâs good that both of you are fine.â Catherine sighed gloomily before she turned around and said to a police officer, âOfficer, please find out who hurt my parents. Seeing the state theyâre in now really breaks my heart.â
The police officerâs mouth twitched. âBut theyâre claiming that you did this.â
âMe?â Catherine was dumbfounded. âTheyâre my biological parents. How could I possibly have done such a crazy thing?â
âYouâre crazy! â Sally roared.
âMy parents have always disliked me.â A glum look washed over Catherineâs pretty face. âThey dislike the fact that Iâm a girl. They kicked me out of the family long ago. When I paid my respects to my cousin today, they chased me out of the funeral parlor. The person who called the police is my assistant. I asked him to wait for my parents in the parlor and send them home afterward. Who knew they would encounter that kind of incident?â
Hadley immediately said, âYes. She asked me to stay there. I wanted to help out, but there were too many people.â
The police officer knew Hadley. After watching the video of the scene, the police officer was convinced.
âIn this modern era, both of you still have such outdated attitudes, huh?â The police officer glared at Jeffery and Sally.
Sally was livid. âNo, we donât. Clearly, itâsâ¦â
