Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 675 âCatherine, since Iâm in the hospital, Iâll let you handle some matters for me for the time being.â Joel suddenly patted Catherine on the back of her hand. âIâll ask Assistant Church to report to you in the future.â
Catherineâs head started to hurt. âDad, are you forcing me to manage Yule Corporation?â
âHow am I forcing you?â Joel stared at her earnestly. âAs my daughter and the young lady of Yule Corporation, youâll no longer be labeled as the illegitimate daughter. You deserve to be with any man in the whole of Australia. Sarah canât compare to you either.â
Joelâs intention finally hit her.
A warm feeling grew in her.
Needless to say, Joel must have found out that Shaun was going to get married, so he did want her to compare herself. Considering that Catherine was the Eldest Young Lady and soon-to-be successor of Yule Corporation, Sarah could not beat her in terms of honor and status. No matter how great Sarah was, she was just a psychologist. Neeson Corporation would have long collapsed without Shaunâs support, and Thomas would not have seemed presentable.
âDonât bother with it. Youâll be able to find someone much better soon. My daughter is so pretty, capable, and rich. Hardly anyone in Australia can surpass you,â Joel encouraged her with a smile.
âThanks, Dad. Iâm always confident in myself. For those who didnât pick me, itâs their loss.â
âThatâs great.â
4:00 p.m.
Catherine queued in the lobby downstairs to collect the medicine. When she was done, she went back upstairs and saw Yael walking out of the obstetrics and gynecology unit with Sarah.
Dressed in a white dress, Sarah looked so angelic that everyone in the hospital did a double-take on her. On the other hand, Catherine had yet to change since she spent the whole of yesterday looking after Joel in the hospital. She had no makeup on, her hair was a little unkempt, and she looked worn out.
Sarah compared her outward appearance to Catherineâs. She was very pleased with herself, but she did not betray it on her face. âHi, Cathy. What brings you here? Whatâs wrong? Are you not feeling well?â
Catherine rolled her eyes and walked forward, ignoring Sarah. She felt burned out after taking care of Joel for a day. She did not have the energy to play along with her.
âHey, stop. Why are you so impolite?â Yael shouted, âMiss Neeson was speaking to you. Didnât you hear that?â
âWho is Miss Neeson? Why should I answer her question?â Catherine stopped in her steps and stood in the corridor. She threw an annoyed glance at the two of them.
âYouâ¦â Yael was fuming with anger.
Sarah stopped Yael and said gently, âCatherine, I know you hate me. Believe it or not, Iâve prepared myself to accept you. Iâm honestly madly in love with Shaun, so I donât mind the two of us staying by his side. I can accept that.â
ââ¦â
Catherine was disgusted. âOh, thank you. But I donât plan on sharing a husband with anyone. Iâm afraid Iâll get sick.â
Sarahâs expression changed slightly, and then she lowered her head. âHow dare you make such a humiliating remark. Shouldnât you tolerate him if you sincerely love him?â
She touched her stomach as she said, âWell, Iâve planned on giving birth to many children for Shaunic.
I came to the hospital today to look at having twins and triplets through in-vitro fertilization.â
