Chapter 1140
Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South]
Brenan returned to the sofa and sat down. He lit another cigarette.
Shaun looked toward him. Only when Shaun was getting impatient did Brennan speak again. “More than
1o years ago, I met a woman when I was at Neah Bay. The true lady owner of Neah Bay. She and
Catherine look very much alike.”
Shaun was astonished. At that moment, it was as if he had found out a secret. “You’re suspecting that
person is Cathy’s family?”
After a moment of silence, Shaun said, “I remember Cathy’s mother was swept away by a typhoon when
she went overseas. It was not long after Cathy was born.”
“At first, I didn’t think too much of it either. That was until I came back and saw Catherine’s picture
because of the matters between you and her…”
Brennan took a long drag on the cigarette. “I can’t be wrong. More than 1o years ago, that woman was
just 30 years old. She was as beautiful as a dangerous rose. She was so beautiful that I would never
forget her in my life. Furthermore, she had a lot of legendary experiences too. She’s the owner of
Soromon Island. She was the one who exploited the petroleum and iron mines of Soromon Island. After
that, she got married to Titus Costner of Neah Bay. Titus is the true owner of Neah Bay, who controls the
sea lanes all around the world. Not only that but the banks of the Costner family are also scattered all
over the world.”
“Dad, I’ve heard of the Costner family before.” Shaun’s Adam’s apple bobbed.
He used to be Australia’s wealthiest man.
Therefore, he knew a lot more compared to ordinary people.
Although the name list of the world’s wealthiest people would be announced every year, it only touched
the surface. The mysterious families, who were the real richest people, always kept a low profile. No
media would dare to report their names.
The Costner family was such an existence.
Even the prominent Hill family before was like an ant compared to the Costner family.
However, all he knew was just about the Costner family. It was his first time hearing the name Titus
Costner.
“He’s the head of the Costner family.”
Brennan said, “The marriage of those two was one between giants. However, after their marriage, they
kept an even lower profile. Currently, everything in the Costner family is managed by their son, Matthew
Costner.”
Shaun did not know what to say. All he felt was a wave of helplessness.
Could Cathy’s mother have a powerful background?
If she returned to her family, would it not be harder for him to woo her back?
When he recalled himself mocking Catherine for taking advantage of his status, he was so ashamed that
he felt like his face was slapped swollen.
“Dad, so you suspect Wesley knows about Catherine’s mother’s identity?” Shaun suddenly asked.
“I tried him before. I never went into details, but his expression was very nervous as if I was spot on.”
Brennan said calmly, “Anyway, this person is a peculiar one. Does he love Catherine that much? Does
he love her so much that he can accept her without any hard feelings even though you snatched his
bride away on their wedding day? He’s not a saint.”
“Exactly.”
Shaun had the same thoughts. “Moreover, Catherine even gave birth to my children. It’s impossible that
he doesn’t know.”
Furthermore, Wesley lost a kidney to save Cathy in the past. After that, Shaun used despicable methods
to threaten Cathy, then she returned to his side again.
Although Cathy was unwilling at first, she was willing to be together with him afterward. Did Wesley not
mind at all?
Catherine trusted Wesley because he always seemed to treat her well. However, Shaun was a man, and
he did not trust Wesley.
“Dad, according to your words, this person is terrifying. He might have already found out about it a long
time ago.”
Shaun said, “Should I tell Cathy about this?”
Brennan shook his head. “Firstly, these are just my suspicions. There’s no evidence. Secondly, why
didn’t Catherine’s mother come back to look for her for the past 2o years? There are too many doubts.
Moreover, do you think she’ll believe it?”
