Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 386 âYouâll be engaged to the Campos family soon. Donât care too much about what others say of you.â
Nicola held Melanieâs hand. âWith the Campos family backing us, itâs only a matter of time before Shaun Hill and Catherine Jones are dealt with.â
Melanie nodded. She would definitely return this insult a thousand times over. âMom, is Dad really going to divorce you?â
âYour grandfather wonât allow it.â
â¦
In Hill Manor.
Early in the morning, Old Master Hill almost died of anger because of Shaunâs marriage certificate.
âThat rascal, to think that he married Catherine Jones so long ago.â
Old Madam Hill rubbed her forehead. She still had not gotten her bearings back yet. âWell, heâs all grown up now, and he has fooled all of us. I even worried about his marriage like a fool.â
Valerie said angrily, âMom, what Shaun said on TV was too much. Our family raised and nurtured him, but in the end, he made our family seem like snobs.â
âYou speak as if weâre not,â Willie Hill could not help but mutter.
âWillie.â Spencer shot him a look.
âDonât scold me. Why donât we focus on the family instead? Now, Shaunâs reputation is taking a turn. If thereâs a problem with Hill Corporationâs future developments, weâll definitely be reduced to a joke.â
Everyone immediately turned to Liam.
âLiam, you better donât let me down. Iâm really disappointed with Shaun.â The Old Master looked at him and said.
Liam smiled. âGrandpa, donât worry. Hill Corporation is the top enterprise in Australia. Although some people say that it was Shaun who made Hill Corporation what it is today, I think that itâs the connections our family gained over generations and our financial power which helped him. Hill Corporation has many talents, so his absence wonât have much of an impact.â
âYouâre right.â Old Master Hill was very satisfied. âShaun is too arrogant. Heâll regret it sooner or later.
Now that he has left Hill Corporation, heâs nothing.â
â¦
The black Bentley left the villa.
Lea, who was sitting in the backseat, asked casually, âLiam, howâs the progress with the research and development of the microchip? The press conference will be held next month.â
âMom, the chief engineer of the microchip development, Clifton Stone, led the group to submit their resignation letters.â Liam gripped the steering wheel tightly. His handsome face suddenly turned dark and cold. âI didnât approve, but they havenât been to the laboratory for several days.â
âWhat?â Lea looked up in surprise and immediately realized. âI remember now. Clifton Stone is a talent that Shaun Hill brought back from the States five years ago. Almost all the people in the lab were recruited by Clifton.â
âYes, Shaun is most likely the mastermind.â Liam did not look good. âI was looking for someone to replace Clifton Stone, but we donât have the time. People like Clifton canât be found in just a month or two.â
Mason suddenly said, âNo wonder, I had a feeling that Shaun left too easily. He stayed in Hill Corporation for so many years, yet he didnât make a fuss at all. It turns out itâs because he still had a card left to play.â
âThis microchip launch is very important. If itâs delayed, the competing companies will take the opportunity to rise.â
Lea frowned and reprimanded, âThe situation isnât great, yet you still boasted in front of your grandfather.â
âMom, it wasnât easy for me to take over Hill Corporation. I canât let Grandpa think that Iâm no match for Shaun after just taking office.â Liam pouted.
âForget it. Iâll go to Shaun in the afternoon to investigateâ¦â
âWhat for? You two have always been at odds with each other.â Mason patted the back of her hand.
âJust forget it and let him return to the company. The two brothers can work together. Is there really a need to fight to the death?â
