Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 373 Five days later.
Shaun walked out of the judicial department with both his hands shoved in the pockets of his trousers.
After being locked up for a few days, he now had a crew cut, but it did not ruin his attractiveness.
On the contrary, his attractive facial features became more prominent. It made him look even more arrogant and intimidating.
âIt mustâve been a tough few days for you, Eldest Young Master.â Hadley went to him excitedly.
Rodney thumped his chest. âMotherf*cker. I thought Iâd never get to drink with you anymore.â
âAll the families in Canberra are trying to convict me. Theyâve put in quite a lot of effort, but itâs not easy to defeat me.â Shaun then glanced around. Aside from his bodyguards and buddies, the figure he had longed to see was not there.
âWhereâs Catherine?â He furrowed his brows. Did the heartless woman seize this opportunity to run away?
Everyone fell silent while Hadley lowered his head.
âTell me.â Shaunâs voice hardened, and it was filled with rage.
After a while, Chester coughed and said helplessly, âThe Hills took Catherine away the day you were arrested for investigation.â
Shaun pulled Hadley toward himself in a fit of fury. âDidnât I ask you to get someone to look after her?
And look how it turned out. Whereâs Elle? Where the hell did she go?â
âSorry, Eldest Young Master.â Hadley gritted his teeth and said guiltily, âMaster Lowry betrayed you and knocked Elle unconscious. Then, the housekeeper took Catherine away.â
âIan Lowry?â Shaun narrowed his eyes. He did not expect this.
âYes.â
âHow many days has it been?â Shaun asked.
âFive days,â Hadley replied cautiously. âBut Iâve asked someone to monitor the manorâs movements. It seems that Miss Jones hasnât been taken elsewhere.â
âIf she hasnât been taken elsewhere, Iâm sure sheâs locked in the manorâs cellar.â Shaun tugged Hadley furiously. âAnd you just leave her locked there? Why didnât you get someone to save her?â
Unable to tolerate it anymore, Rodney said, âThese days, weâre all trying to deal with the influential families in Canberra while thinking of ways to save you. Besides, Hadley is just your subordinate. He doesnât have the guts to barge into the Hill familyâs manor. You do know how smart Old Master Hill is, donât you?â
Chester nodded and spoke as well, âShaun, if youâre planning to save Catherine, you need to brace yourself to go against Old Master Hill.â
âI must save my woman.â Shaun strode toward his sports car. Though instead of pulling the car door open, he took a gun from the trunk.
Everyone was shocked, but Chester frowned. âShaun, are you planning to enter the manor with a gun?â
âYouâre insane. Is the woman worth all this?â Rodney yelled at Shaun in exasperation, âYouâve been boycotted by all the noble families in Canberra. If youâre going to offend the Hill family as well, the consequences will be disastrous.â
Chase, who had been silent, suddenly said, âIâm on your side, Shaun.â
âChase, donât jump in for fun, okay?â Anger began to well up inside Rodney.
âRodney, Iâm sure you wouldnât have said that if it was Sarah,â Chase said bluntly.
Rodneyâs face froze. âSarah is different. She grew up with us, but Shaun and Catherine have only known each other for a short while.â
âYou guys donât have to say anything else. I didnât manage to protect Catherine last time, so I have to save her this time.â Shaun turned his head around and ordered Hadley, âGet all the members of Liona to head to the Hill familyâs manor. I want that place surrounded.â
Then, he got into the car and dashed out.
Chester watched Shaun leave with a complicated gaze. He then took out his phone to call his assistant. âGet the Chesterton members to head to the Hill familyâs manor right now to back Shaun up.â
âChester, are you going crazy as well?â Rodney was pissed.
âRodney, itâs worth putting out all the stops to help our buddy.â Chester shrugged. âItâs no big deal if you want to help.â
