Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 295 Melanie looked nervous and whispered, âMom, the eldest young masterâs temper is eccentric. I donât know if heââ
âYou have to go. If he disagrees, you can go to Old Madam Hill. Itâs time to prove our position in the Yule family.â Nicola reminded her.
Melanieâs eyes brightened and she nodded.

Behind the mountain, in a horse racing venue.
A handsome stallion galloped wildly on the grass. The man on the horse held a long whip. His handsome black riding outfit made him look elegant and noble as if he was a European aristocrat. His body exuded a breathtaking manly charm.
Soon, the horse stopped and Shaun jumped down from the horse. He undid some buttons on his collar.
The executives hurriedly gathered around.
âEldest Young Master, your horseback riding skills are getting better and better.â
âEldest Young Master, youâre really amazing to be able to conquer the wind.â
ââ¦â
Shaun looked at them expressionlessly. âGet to the point.â
An executive steeled his nerves and said, âEldest Young Master, when will you return to Hill Corporation? Youâve been away for less than four months but the companyâs profit has been dropping.
Second Young Master doesnât listen to us and insists on doing things his way. Please come back to the company.â
âEldest Young Master, we need you.â
âThe company canât do without you.â
Shaun took the water handed to him by Hadley and tipped his chin, taking a large gulp. His eyes were indifferent. âFine, get out of my sight. Iâll return to the company next week.â
âThatâs great. Welcome back, Eldest Young Master! Weâll get out of your sight immediately.â
The executives went back in high spirits.
Hadley laughed and lowered his voice to say, âEldest Young Master, youâre still the best. Even after leaving for four months, Liam Hill still canât win the hearts of those executives.â
âLiam Hill is like his father, so I know exactly what heâs like, but my mother⦠wonât be happy.â Shaun scoffed softly.
Hadley fell silent, feeling that it was unfair for Shaun.
âEldest Young Master.â
Someone suddenly called out to him.
He frowned and turned around. Melanie, wearing a white knitted sweater and a beret, quickly ran to him. Her beautiful face was filled with pleasant surprise. âEldest Young Master, I heard Grandma say that you were here and you really are.â
âIâm busy.â Shaun mounted the horse. He would rather ride a few more laps around the track than face Melanie.
Melanie became anxious and hurriedly stopped in front of the horse. âEldest Young Master, I need to talk to you.â
A trace of impatience flashed in Shaunâs eyes, but he suppressed it. âWhat is it?â
âYou should remember my half-sister, right? She encouraged my father to give her a plot of land along the coastline the other day, but my father had already promised my uncle that plot of land previouslyâ¦â
Melanie said apprehensively. She sensed that Shaun was being impatient with her, but she had no choice. She could not stand by and watch Catherine climb over Nicola and her.
âSoâ¦â Shaun glanced at her, the corners of his mouth curling into a smile.
Melanie looked at him pitifully. âCould you help me, please?â
He sat on the horse and looked down at her quietly for a moment. Suddenly, he smiled. âSure.â
Melanieâs eyes brightened. Eldest Young Master Hill really did love her the most! âThank you, Eldest Young Master. I⦠I love you.â
After saying those three words, she lowered her head shyly, not noticing the hint of mockery in Shaunâs eyes.
Love?
She had only met him a few times, but she was already talking about love.
