Let Me Go, Mr. Hill!

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 311
Joel was not a fool. Upon realizing what had happened, he glared at Nicola.

Nicola was shocked. “What do you mean, Catherine? I heard with my own ears the Hill family’s servant claim that you secretly went to the hot spring. I thought you were planning on seducing Willie. Given Willie’s wickedness, I was worried about you so I hurried there…”

“Yeah, you hurried there. If you had happened to see me in disheveled clothes and Willie pressed against me, my reputation would have been damaged. The Hill family would surely consider me indecent, so how would they possibly agree to let Willie marry me?”

Catherine sighed in a light-hearted manner. “Aunty Nicola, if you were really concerned about me, you would’ve gone to the hot spring alone in secret and not bring the whole family there. You should’ve felt more relieved that you couldn’t find me rather than expose it by kicking up a fuss.”

She expressed every sentence in a clear and orderly manner. Even if Joel was a fool, he would be under no illusions that it had something to do with Nicola.

“Nicola, you’re really wicked.” Joel trembled with anger. “Why are you holding a grudge against a young lady like her? Not only do you and Melanie always target her at home, but you also had the thought of ruining her in the Hill household.”

Catherine frowned. “Dad, couldn’t you tell that even the chef had purposely targeted me during dinner?”
