Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill
Chapter 475

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 475

"You're concerned about Shaun?" Charlie grabbed her hand and played with it. "You can't possibly still care for him right?"

"Of course not. There's only you in my heart now." Melanie lowered her gaze and smiled. "I'm just curious."

Charlie replied in the affirmative.

Not only that, Shaun's illness had worsened. He even fainted a few days ago and was sent to the hospital in a hurry.

That person was truly amazing.

After Catherine left, someone in a black car by the road called Shaun immediately.

"... Young Madam met Charlie Campos and Melanie Yule. They took her seat away from her."

In front of the full-length window, Shaun plucked a leaf from the windowsill. "It's time to punish these two people. Give them a grand present. As for that cafe, there's no reason for it to operate anymore."

At the cafe.

Charlie and Melanie were only halfway through their breakfast.

A group of officers from the Health Protection Service seized the restaurant. "Someone reported that they had a stomach ache after eating breakfast here. Therefore, the restaurant must be closed for investigation. All unrelated people should leave."

The officers chased the people out of the restaurant. "Leave quickly."

Melanie was exasperated. "I haven't even finished eating yet. Do you know who I am?"

"I'm not interested in knowing who you are, but I know you're getting in the way of my work."

The officers chased them out and even threw their bags out.

Melanie kept exclaiming in anger, "I'll report you guys!"

Charlie was not in a good mood either. "Don't worry, I know some higher-ups. I can make those people lose their jobs with just a call."

"Charlie, you're amazing." Melanie's expression was full of admiration.

Charlie smirked and took his phone out. He was about to make the call when his secretary called him. "President Campos, we're in trouble. Hill Corporation's legal department sent someone to Campos Corporation. They said that during these 20 years, the Campos family has taken a net profit of 80 billion from Hill Corporation when the Campos and Hill families had joint projects. Hill Corporation has sent someone to demand their money back."

"What?" Charlie's expression changed drastically. "Is Shaun insane?"

"They brought the ledger. Everything was put down in black and white. They calculated all of it clearly." The secretary smiled bitterly. "They shut our legal department down too."

"Damn it!"

Charlie was infuriated.

He finally understood, from the incident at the breakfast restaurant to the problem with the company's accounts.

All of this could not be a mere coincidence.

It had to be Shaun.

This Shaun was about to go crazy, yet he was not giving him a break.

Unfortunately, all of it was true.

All those years when Lea was in control, she had helped the Campos family a lot. She even collaborated with the Campos family on many joint projects. Usually, Hill Corporation did not participate in the projects, so they basically shut their eyes and let the Campos family earn money. It was only a few days ago that they tightened their policies after Shaun assumed the position.

It was not that the Campos family did not have 80 billion. However, taking out such a large amount of money so suddenly would affect a huge project that the Campos family was about to start. That project could change the future of the Campos family. Therefore, they could not hand out the money.

Catherine arrived at the company.

When General Manager Wolfe came to get her signature, he said uneasily, "I heard that... you're living apart from Mr. Hill and you're getting ready... for a divorce?" The pen that was signing something halted.

Catherine raised her head calmly. "It's being circulated like that outside?"

"Yes, some companies that had a verbal agreement with us previously canceled their collaborations with us. They're not even picking up our company's calls now."

"Never mind. It's profitable enough for us if we just focus on developing the building at the seaside." Catherine was not angry at all. "There are too many restless people in the company anyways. It's better for everyone to stay grounded."

"Okay."
