Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 640 Chase quickly went between the two men. âShaun, calm down. Joseph is just joking.â
âI wasnât joking, though.â Joseph smirked.
Shaun, who was being provoked again, narrowed his gaze. He sneered, âItâs too bad sheâs unwilling.
Itâs her who refuses to get divorced now.â
After he spoke, he pulled Catherine to him and stared at her sharply. âSay your thoughts. Do you want to divorce me?â
Catherine grinned. âI do.â
Shaunâs face stiffened. His blazing eyes looked as though he wanted to eat her alive.
She had adamantly refused to get proof of divorce just a few days ago. However, now that she had another man, she wanted to leave him immediately.
âBut not now,â Catherine continued saying, âYou and Sarah tortured me and made my life a living hell. I came back after three years, yet Sarah still did countless stupid acts. Tell her to dream on if she thinks I would surrender the position of Young Madam Hill so easily.â
Joseph immediately poured a glass of wine for her and put on an affectionate expression. âIâll support you no matter what you do. Iâll be waiting for you.â
âThank you.â Catherine was about to hold the wine glass.
However, she was yanked down from the chair by Shaun before she even touched the glass.
âLeave with me.â
âThat wonât do. The nightlife is just starting.â Joseph grabbed Catherineâs other hand.
âLet go. If you mess with me, I can still cause harm to Talton Design even if I canât ruin it. It doesnât matter that youâre in a different industry,â Shaun warned.
The gazes of the two men clashed with each other. Catherine turned toward Joseph helplessly and said in a soft voice, âJoseph, Iâm sorry. Iâll treat you to another meal next time.â
âYouâre not allowed to eat with him again,â Shaun uttered another warning.
ââ¦â
Joseph laughed and ignored Shaunâs words. âOkay, next time. Be careful and call me if anything happens. Iâll always be by your side.â
âThankââ Catherine had not finished talking yet when she was lifted onto Shaunâs shoulders and carried out.
Chase gave Joseph a thumbs up. âYouâre amazing. You dare to go against Shaun so openly. Youâre really not scared of him.â
âIâm in architecture and heâs in technology. Even if he wants to destroy me, whoâs in another industry, thatâll take some planning. It wonât be that easy.â Joseph shrugged his shoulders calmly.
âToo bad youâre not an actor.â
âWhy do you say Iâm acting? Canât I be serious about it?â Joseph raised his eyebrows in a teasing manner.
Chase was taken aback. âNo way⦠Youâre serious?â
âMen always desire beautiful women,â Joseph said while grinning, âAlthough I know that I canât have her, it doesnât change the fact that sheâs my sweetheart.â
â¦
Catherine was thrown into the car by Shaun.
When she fell, it was as if her organs had almost fallen out of her as well.
The canvas shoe on her foot dropped under the car when she fell.
âMyâ¦â She clambered to pick them up but she only heard Shaun close the door hard.
The door was quickly locked, and she could not open it no matter how much she tried.
Shaun sat on the driverâs seat. He stepped on the accelerator and sped off.
âShaun, stop the car. My shoe fell off.â Catherine went over and pulled on him.
âDonât try to trick me. I know you just want to go back and look for Joseph, donât you?â Shaun had a raging fire inside of him. âCatherine Jones, why are you such a b*tch? I was wondering how you managed to sign a collaboration with Hazle Group and Talton Design, and it turns out that you relied on your looks and body. Youâre shameless, but Iâm not.â
âWhat did you say?â Catherine widened her eyes.
Shaun sneered, âDo you need a clearer explanation from me? With your ability, would Hazle Group even consider Hudson Corporation if you hadnât had some shady exchange? You really have some tricks up your sleeve. You made Joseph fall for you and he doesnât even think youâre dirty.â
Catherine took a deep breath. Although she knew that no good words could come out of his nasty mouth, she wanted to hit him to death with her shoe when he accused her in such a filthy way.
In fact, she really did it.
She quickly took off the remaining shoe on her foot and smacked it across his face without hesitation.
