Chapter 1114

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

Catherine’s eyes suddenly widened.

She would be able to recognize Shaun’s face straight away no matter how much it had changed. Was it
him?

He was alive?

Her head buzzed. By the time she noticed Shaun’s eyes settling on her, it was too late to look away.

Just like that, Shaun had spotted her eyes on him. The two of them looked at each other at a distance
away, separated by all the people between them.

He realized that her eyes were red.

With that, his thin lips curled up a little.

Despite his narrow escape from death just now, he was in an inexplicably good mood.

“Hannah…”

At this moment, Madam Mead called out to her daughter amid her tears. She then ran to her daughter
emotionally and hugged her. “This is

great. You’re still alive. You scared the hell out of me. I thought you were inside.”

“What happened, Hannah? The surveillance footage caught you entering the elevator at that time. ”
Senator Mead then walked to Hannah with his eyes red. He almost lost his footing the instant he knew
that his only daughter was dead.



“Dad, I nearly died.” Hannah hugged his parents and said tearfully, “But luckily, Young Master Hill saved
me.”

After she finished speaking, she darted a shy glance at Shaun.

“Dad, you don’t know how terrifying the situation was just now. The elevator plunged over ten floors, and
it did not stop even after we pressed all the buttons. Thank god Shaun opened the roof in time. When the
elevator fell to the second floor, he swiftly grabbed me and fled to the elevator shaft. Then, he forced
open the doors on the third floor with his bare hands, and we crawled out.”

Toward the end of her sentence, Hannah gazed at Shaun in admiration. “Really. We would’ve died if we
were one or two seconds late. Fortunately, Shaun took it in stride. He could’ve escaped alone at that
time, but he decided to save me even though I might be a drag. He even suffered gashes on his arms
from the cable in order to grab me in the shaft She reached out to hold Shaun’s arm as she was
speaking, but Shaun shunned her touch.

Shaun looked at Senator Mead coldly and said, “If I was alive and something happened to your daughter,
the Mead family might treat me as your arch-enemy. I just didn’t want to get myself into trouble.”

“Anyhow, thank you for rescuing my daughter.” Senator Mead nodded gratefully.

Back then, Senator Mead used to think that Shaun was arrogant even though he had not interacted with
him personally before. However, this incident made him look at Shaun differently.

Well, Shaun’s assumption was right too. If they both entered the elevator and he was alive but Hannah
was dead, Senator Mead would certainly blame him for not rescuing his daughter.

He was not concerned about whether Shaun would risk his life to save his daughter. What mattered to
him was that Shaun would have to save his daughter as long as Shaun was alive.

“Thank you, Shaun. I’m glad you were around tonight, ” Hannah said with tender affection.



She would never forget how Shaun used his muscular arms to save her out of the elevator moments
before her death.

When the two of them were trapped in the shaft later, he hugged her tightly with his strong body without
saying a word.

She even felt this man’s muscles and smelled his pleasant masculine scent.

She had long since heard of the name ‘Shaun Hill’.

Nevertheless, they did not belong in the same world. She was only in her early 20s and had been
studying abroad before this. All this while, she assumed that Shaun was a heartless man. Through
tonight’s incident, she came to realize that this man was not as bad as how the public had described him.

His great charm provided women with a strong sense of security. Moreover, he was the most attractive
man she had ever seen, considering his perfect physique and features that made her breathless.

Being in her early 20s, Hannah finally experienced what was love.

Shaun cast an indifferent look at her and frowned. He pursed his lips so tightly that he was not even in
the mood for talking.

“It’s good that everyone’s fine.” Nathan walked to Shaun and patted him on the shoulder. “Luckily you’re
here tonight, Shaun.”

If Senator Mead’s daughter had died during the banquet where Nathan acknowledged his goddaughter,
this incident would have caused a misunderstanding between Senator Mead and Nathan.
