After Shaun finished speaking, he picked up his suit jacket and prepared to leave.“I think you just want him to die there so no one can compete with you for Hill Corporation,” Lea said in a sharp tone.Shaun’s long legs paused and he said quietly, “Think whatever you want.”“Shaun Hill, my greatest regret is giving birth to you. I should’ve aborted you.”Lea’s voice sounded from behind.Shaun entered the elevator directly.Hadley carefully observed his face. He was unperturbed and expressionless but Hadley knew that currently, it was the calm before the storm.This happened every time Shaun and Lea met. The two would definitely fight, as though the mother and son were natural enemies.Hadley sighed in his heart. The madam was too biased.The driver brought the car over, and Shaun opened the door and got in before driving away himself.Canberra was large, but it seemed like he had nowhere to go.He drove to New Metropolis Park.He opened the door and went in. The spacious m
Catherine felt like she had fallen into a terrible abyss that became her worst nightmare…...2:00 a.m.Shaun snapped out of his rage and what he saw startled himself.The woman beside him was curled up in a ball of pain. Her face was extremely pale and her lips were bloodless. “Catherine!” Shaun’s heart thundered.However, the woman was unresponsive.Shaun was shocked. He hastily wrapped the woman with the bedsheet before picking her up and rushing to the hospital.Late at night in the hospital corridor.Shaun stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows and tried to light a cigarette, only to find that his hand was shaking. Even after a long time, he did not manage to light the cigarette.“Let me.” Chester Jewell, dressed in a white coat, approached him with a complex gaze. “You lost control. Did you have an episode again? I think your smoking addiction has also gotten worse.”“I met Lea Hill today and lost control of my emotions.” Shaun was agitated. “How is she?”“The female
Shaun’s hand froze in mid-air, and his mouth was full of bitterness. He finally knew the taste of reaping what one sowed.What on earth had he done to reduce a person to this state?The Catherine from before was bright and delicate, full of confidence.He often saw how narcissistic she was in front of a mirror, as though she believed herself to be the most beautiful person in the world.He missed that cute and mischievous girl.“Come out. Don’t hide under the covers. You’ll suffocate.” He reached out to yank the covers away but saw her biting her fingers hard. Her face was streaked with tears.“Alright, I’ll go out. I’ll ask someone to bring you some food since you haven’t eaten all night.”Shaun sighed and turned to leave.Before long, a nurse entered.When Catherine saw that Shaun had left, the fear in her heart dissipated a little, but her body still hurt badly. She had no appetite at all and slept after taking a few bites.When she woke up the next day, the sky was alread
“I’ll do it.” Shaun took off his jacket and rolled up his sleeves.Catherine was astonished. After knowing him for so long, she had never seen him so much as hold a spatula. How would he cook?Shaun really did not know how to cook, but he could learn. There were many tutorials on his phone, so he believed that it could not be that hard.After spending an hour, he finally cooked two dishes and a soup. The fish fillet, caramelized eggplant, and chicken soup looked barely presentable.Catherine glanced at the back of his hand which had turned red because it was splashed with hot oil. If he did not apply some ointment to it immediately, he would definitely get blisters tomorrow.Her lips moved, but she did not speak. He deserved it, so she would not be soft-hearted.“Eat up.” Shaun scooped a bowl of chicken soup for her.The chicken was badly chopped by him, and it was clear that his knife work was mediocre. However, the ingredients of the chicken soup itself were good and the taste
Shaun had just finished speaking when his phone rang.When he took it out to see, Catherine saw the word ‘Grandmother’ on the screen.Shaun went out with the phone. “Grandma, did something happen?”“Can’t I call you if nothing happened? What are you busy with all day long? You haven’t been back to the old residence for several days. Your mother is back, so you can sleep at the manor at night.”Shaun glanced at the bedroom door and refused. “I’m not free.”“You weren’t free for the company meeting, and you weren’t free when Melanie asked you out on a date. What the hell are you doing?” Old Madam Hill said angrily, “You must come back. The whole family will have a meal together.”Shaun sneered, “Is it really just a meal? Or do you want to force me to bring Liam back?”Old Madam Hill sighed. “Shaun, these years, it was because your grandfather and I kept applying pressure that we’ve kept your mother from managing the company’s affairs, letting you and Liam be in the company. Everyo
Soon, news about Liam rushed to the top of the popular search query.Various media-driven topics also appeared online.#LiamHillDisappearance [I heard that Liam Hill was forced to Country F by his own brother. Wars often break out in Country F now. It’s obvious what would happen if he was sent there at this time.]#LiamHillDisappearance [I heard that the conflict in Country F this morning involved bombs and there were many casualties. Second Young Master Hill might have been struck with misfortune.]#LiamHillDisappearance [Eldest Young Master Hill is too ruthless. Hill Corporation already belongs to him, but he won’t even spare his own younger brother.][Second Young Master Hill is a good person. He often helps our poor areas and donates money to build schools. Eldest Young Master Hill is too vicious.][The comment above is awesome. You actually dare to openly talk about Eldest Young Master Hill? Aren’t you afraid you’ll get into an accident later?][Hehe, it’s not like Eldest Y
A week later.Freya accompanied Catherine to a private hospital to get her stitches removed.Chester personally went to the parking lot to meet with the two people. This was the first time Catherine met him, and she had to say that Shaun’s friends all looked like supermodels.Chester wore a white coat and glasses. His figure was tall and he looked gentle. His handsome face was warm and harmless. The spring-like smile on his lips made him look easygoing and approachable, but his thin lips showed that he was a cool and indifferent man.Freya gasped. “Are all doctors these days this hot? He looks like a male model posing in front of a camera for a movie.”“You’re good at joking, Ms. Lynch.” Chester smiled. “Let’s go. I’ve arranged for a doctor to take you there.”“Sorry for the trouble. I can just go by myself.” Catherine felt embarrassed. After all, she was going to the gynecology department because of that kind of matter.Chester shook his head and smiled. “That won’t do. Shaun p
“Okay, call me if you need anything.”Chester turned to leave when Lea’s phone suddenly rang. “What… They’re back? Okay… Okay, we’ll go to the airport right away.”After hanging up the phone, Lea gave a rare smile to Melanie. “Liam and Shaun just arrived at the airport. Let’s go, we’ll drive and pick them up and then come back for the check-up next time.”“Yes, Aunty. I miss Shaun too.” Melanie glanced at Catherine smugly and swiftly left with Lea.Freya gave Catherine a nervous and sympathetic look but saw that her expression was full of calmness. “Let’s go, the elevator is here.”“It looks like I can accompany you again.” Chester followed them in and coughed softly into his fist. “Melanie Yule is just engrossed in her own wishful thinking. Shaun’s heart is with you. We’re basically brothers to him and understand him the most, so don’t overthink it.”“I’m not.” Catherine smiled at him. She was truly relieved. It seemed that Liam was fine.When she came out of the hospital, Frey
