Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1113
In the blink of an eye, only Shaun’s corpse was left?
All Catherine could feel was a force clenching her heart, making it hard for her to breathe.
Her mind was blank.
Even the hand that was holding her phone trembled in spite of herself.
She hated Shaun.
When he imprisoned her on the island, she hated him so much that she wished he would die.
However, why did she become lost and flustered the minute she learned that he was dead?
Freya continued to message her. [Are you okay?]
Catherine lowered her head and replied with her trembling fingers. [Are you sure?]
Freya responded. [I’m 100 percent sure. From the footage, I saw Shaun taking the elevator down with Senator
Mead’s daughter. The elevator had only gone down two floors when it malfunctioned. He couldn’t have escaped.]
Catherine fixed her vacant gaze on those strange words.

Senator Mead’s daughter, Hannah Mead, was also inside?
Damn it.
However, he was not involved in the matter. Given that he merely suggested it, the investigation of the matter
would not concern him.
It was a pity to know that Hannah was in the elevator, but it was just a woman.
Everything else would not matter as long as Shaun was dead.
Wesley glanced at Catherine, who looked worried beside him, and the corners of his mouth twitched grimly in the
dark.
Freya had most likely informed her of Shaun’s death.
Although Catherine claimed that she no longer loved Shaun, her expression showed otherwise when she learned
about Shaun’s death.
Once again, the car arrived at the entrance of the hotel.
Catherine got out of the car straight away without saying goodbye to Wesley.
She rushed into the hotel, and at that time, the ambulance and firefighters had just arrived.
All of them gathered on the ground floor. As soon as Freya saw Catherine, she walked to her. “Why did you come
back?”
“Has the dead body… been taken out yet?” Catherine stared intently at her.
“They’re going to take it out now.”
Freya sighed and held Catherine’s hand, only to realize that it was icy. “Cathy, don’t take it too hard.”
“I’m taking it easy. He’s only my ex-husband. Since he has done so many crazy things to me, he deserves death. It
serves him right.”
Catherine spoke impassively, but toward the end of her sentence, she choked so badly that her eyes reddened
uncontrollably.
She did not know what was wrong with her.
She just felt very uncomfortable. It was as if both
her legs were floating in the air, and she could not get them to the ground.
“Freya, I’m not sad. Perhaps I just feel… guilty. He said that he came here today because of me. If I hadn’t come,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhe wouldn’t have died like this, right?”
Catherine looked at Freya in bewilderment. The man who used to be the most brilliant person in Australia had
ultimately died in the elevator. How ridiculous.
Not knowing what to say, Freya just stared at Catherine sadly.
Beside her, Senator Mead’s wife was weeping bitterly, while Senator Mead, who was blind with anger, criticized the
hotel manager, “Your hotel has to be responsible for the sudden malfunction of the elevator. I won’t let you guys off
the hook.”
Upon prying the doors open, the firefighters got down by clutching onto the cable. Everyone watched the dark spot
beneath and waited with bated breath.
“Dad, Mom…”
Suddenly, a woman behind yelled amid her sobs. Senator Mead and his wife froze. They swung around, only to see
a pretty young lady standing behind them. However, she was a sorry mess. Her white dress was ripped in half, and
her lower body was wrapped around with a man’s black suit.
Standing beside the lady was a tall, handsome man.
The man was only wearing a shirt without a suit, and his tie was loosely hanging at the side of his shirt. Despite his
disheveled clothes, he still looked attractive.
