Let Me Go, Mr. Hill!

Chapter 57
Catherine did not understand Shaun’s intention to keep this a secret from her. Was it to prevent her from stealing his wealth? Was he planning to let Rebecca design his house?

She could accept the first possibility but not the second.

He knew that the Jones family had almost taken her life, as well as her endless grudges against Rebecca.

“It’s fine if you did. I won’t force you to hire me as your designer,” she said half-jokingly.

“I already said no.” His reply was straightforward.

She clasped her fingers around the cutleries and changed the topic of conversation. “Well, then… Do you have any events coming up lately? Perhaps you’ll need a female companion…”

“Nope.” People in Melbourne were too lowly for him. They were not worth his presence.

“Um… Alright, but I do, though.”

He placed the cutleries on the table and looked her straight in the eyes. “What is it you’re trying to say?”

“My grandma will turn 80 at the end of the month. The birthday party is being celebrated along with Ethan and Rebecca’s engagement ceremony. I have no choice but to show up. My grandma has been great to be since I was little. Would you like to go with me?”
