Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill
Chapter 439

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 439

"Shaunny, I had a grandma too. It was only when she passed that I regretted not spending more time with her. Family is literally blood and it's extremely difficult to cut them off. Because of you, I can try to tolerate and forgive them. As long as it makes you happy." With an intense gaze, Catherine looked Shaun in the eye.

He was moved.

The emotions that had been suppressed at the bottom of his heart erupted like a volcano.

He lowered his head to kiss her passionately on the lips. "I'm sorry, baby."

'For making you go through this.' Her face was disfigured by the Hill family yet she still tolerated them for him.

That was not necessary. He promised to make them pay for what they did to her.

Valerie included.

"One day, I'll replace someone to treat your face. I'll love you for the rest of my life."

Catherine shut her eyes close. At this very moment, she felt strong and calm.

It did not matter that her face was disfigured. All that mattered was that he did not mind.

The following day.

Catherine went to work at the company.

Just then, Hadley showed up with a few nurses. There was a strange expression on his face as he said, "Eldest Young Master Hill, these are the nurses handpicked by the hospital director." Shaun, who was reading, lifted his head.

His mental illness was not something that could be cured in a couple of days. Catherine had her own career to work on, thus she could not possibly look after him all the time. In order to prevent him from having another relapse, it was good to have a properly-trained nurse at home to keep an eye on him.

However, he looked distracted when his gaze landed on a particularly beautiful face.

Soon, a shadow veiled across his features. "What's your name?"

The woman appeared startled under his gaze before replying in a soft voice, "My name's Shelly Langley."

"Langley?" He frowned. "What's your relationship with Sarah Langley Neeson?"

"She's my cousin." Shelley blinked blankly at the man. "You know my cousin?"

He more than knew her.

Shaun sighed internally. "You're still a Langley, at the very least. Why did you end up a nurse? This is not an easy job."

"The Langleys are no longer what we used to be before. But it's fine. We still have food in our bellies and a roof over our heads."

She lifted her eyes and smiled gratefully. "Perhaps my taking up this profession has something to do with my cousin. The two of us used to be really close when we were younger but she was sent to the menta hospital. I felt really bad for her. My initial plan was to become a certified psychologist but I didn't make it. I'm actually in the middle of preparing to take the exam again."

He was distracted again upon hearing this. Hadley's reminder brought him back to reality. "Eldest Young Master Hill, who would you like to hire?"

"Shelley Langley it is." The man picked up his book again.

A huge smile spread across her face. "Thanks, Eldest Young Master Hill. I'll do my best to help you recover."

Hadley seemed taken aback.

Once Shelley left for home to pack up her belongings, Shaun looked over his shoulder and instructed, "Look into this woman.”

"Eldest Young Master Hill, are you suspecting that—"

"Just in case."

In less than half a day, Hadley returned with some results. "Shelley Langley is indeed Miss Neeson's cousin. She had been studying abroad and only recently came home. Ever since Miss Neeson's mother's passing, the Langley family has not been doing well under the Neeson family's oppression. Shelly is discriminated against in the hospital as well and is always given the task to look after violent and aggressive patients. However, her performance in the hospital has been pretty good. Not only is she patient but she also has a strong mindset to endure hardships."
