‘Boo-hoo. Sorry, Cathy. I’m doing this for the sake of saving you. Please forgive me for talking nonsense.

‘You’ll have to fend for yourself after you get out of jail.’

At that instant, the boisterous private room became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Shaun kept his face impassive when he knocked on the cards on the table with his fingers.

It was hard to decipher the look on his face, and only he would realize the surge of emotions within him.

It could be true that Catherine had not gotten over him. Considering that she loved him so much that she could disregard her dignity previously, she could not possibly have moved on.

In fact, Catherine was mentally weak.

They said the deeper one loved, the more one suffered.

Nevertheless, he was very upset at that woman’s capability to lure men.

“I’ll sleep on it. You may leave now.”

After what seemed like an eternity, Shaun finally opened his mouth to speak.

“How long do you need to think about it? Cathy has been locked for eight hours.”

“Is eight hours very long just because she’s precious?” Shaun took his cards again. “If you continue staying here, she might be locked until she’s 80 years old.”

Freya’s eyes glowed as she detected a glimmer of hope in his words.

With that, she readily left the room.

Once the door was closed, Chester Jewell shuffled the cards in his hands with a fancy technique and asked curiously, “Are you really going to save her?”

Shaun took his cup and sipped some coffee without saying a word.
