Chapter 1732: Chapter 1732

Let me go, Mr. Hill By Shallow South Chapter 1732 Catherine hesitated for a while before she walked out with Shaun.

As the wards here were for VIPs, there was barely anyone in the long corridor.

Catherine leaned against the window. Her pretty face looked cool and serene.

As Shaun recalled her sorrowful and exasperated expression when he entered the ward, his heart clenched in spite of himself. “Cathy, soon, what happened today won’t happen ever again. Give me a little more time.”

Once Wesley’s and Jeffery’s true colors were exposed, Sheryl would discover the truth and forget about taking revenge on Catherine.

Upon hearing his words, Catherine stared at Shaun earnestly, “Shaun, I don’t want to know what you’re planning to do. We don’t have to meet each other in the future unless it’s about the kids. We can just talk on the phone. Also, you’re not obliged to visit my dad. Please leave.”

Seeing her indifferent gaze, Shaun subconsciously tightened his fists. “I’m not into Hannah. I’m doing this for—”

“I know you have an ulterior motive, ” Catherine interjected. “And that’s precisely why you need to keep a distance from me. If you flirt with Hannah while staying in touch with me, your ex-wife, how are other people going to perceive me? If Hannah finds out about it, I’ll suffer the consequences too. ”

Stung by her criticisms, Shaun was at a loss for words.

He had no choice but to suppress his feelings as he looked at her. Aunty Yasmine already informed him that she had moved back to the Yules’ house today.

At the thought that he would not see her in the manor anymore, he did not feel like going home tonight.

To him, a place without her felt empty. “I’m going in now.”

With that, Catherine turned around and walked into the ward.

Just as Shaun was about to tag along, his phone rang. The minute he saw the name ‘Hannah Mead’, hatred flashed across his eyes. Even so, he picked up the call. “What’s the matter?”

“I should be the one asking you that.” Hannah replied coquettishly, “Didn’t we agree to have dinner together tonight? Yet, you stood me up at the last minute. Don’t think I don’t know that you’ve gone to visit Joel. Am I right?”

Hannah snorted. “Is it because you still can’t get over Catherine? Otherwise, why would you go over there just because something happened to her dad? Shaun, have you been fooling me for the past two days?”

“I’m coming to meet you now, ” Shaun answered.

He cast a look at the door, and his dark eyes drooped. Then, he turned around and walked away without looking back.

That night, Catherine kept Joel company in the hospital.

The next day, Joel’s assistant came to give him a report of the situation. “President Yule, according to the police’s investigation, it was a deliveryman who signed the package containing alcohol. The deliveryman claimed that he did not notice the alcohol label at the bottom of the package when he checked it. Then, the warehouse was in flames because the warehouse keeper secretly smoked, and you just happened to arrive at that moment. He was so shocked that he tossed the cigarette onto the floor. In the end, he forgot to step on the cigarette to put it out, which resulted in the fire. However, the police investigated both their bank accounts and detected suspicious money transfers from overseas into their accounts.”

“When did the transfer take place?” Catherine asked.

The assistant paused for an instant and shot a complicated look at Joel before he responded, “ Seven to eight minutes after you left Hill Corporation.”

Joel’s heart trembled, and his face became ashen.

Catherine closed her eyes and scoffed. “Dad, you must accept the fact now, right?”

A dazed look washed over Joel’s face. In this world, there was probably nothing more painful than knowing that the woman he used to be deeply in love with wanted to kill him.
