Chapter 1171

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

“Tsk. The previously arrogant Shaun has become so despicable now.”

“Exactly. Tonight is interesting. Look, his ex-wife, Catherine Jones, is here too.”

The guests were discussing it in whispers.

Having heard it all, Shaun looked grim and pursed his thin lips. He pretended as if he did not hear any
of it.

Senator Mead and his wife became flushed with embarrassment for a short moment. Senator Mead
then said with a smile, “Welcome, Shaun. Well, I have yet to properly thank you for rescuing my
daughter the other day.”

Ryan raised his brows and gave an evil smile. “ Brother Shaun, it turns out that you’re the one Eldest
Young Miss Mead is interested in. How unlucky of you.”

“Stop talking nonsense.” Hannah glowered at Ryan before she pulled on Shaun’s arm. “Let’s go to the
other side. I’ll introduce my friends to you.”

Shaun turned around to look at Catherine. Before he could take a good look at her, Hannah dragged
him away.

At the sight of the scene, Catherine was simmering with rage.

F*ck! This despicable man had just flirted with her yesterday, but here he was attending Hannah’s
birthday party. Hannah was even pulling on his arm so intimately.

He even claimed that he was not close to Hannah yesterday.



What a damn liar!

Of course, she did not dare reveal her feelings.

After all, everyone knew that she was Shaun’s ex- wife. Nearly everyone was secretly observing her, so
all she could do was remain calm with a smile.

It seemed as if she sincerely wished her ex- husband happiness.

“Cathy, let’s go over there.” Freya came to her and held her hand. “It’s been a few days since we last
met. What have you been up to recently?”

Catherine took the opportunity to walk some

distance away with Freya. However, she did not walk too far away. She arrived at the garden and
watched Wesley through the French window in a low-key manner.

“Hey, why do you keep staring at Wesley? Is it because you’ve fallen for him so you’re afraid that
someone will snatch him away?” Freya made fun of her with a snigger.

“You’re overthinking it.”

After some thought, Catherine whispered the truth in Freya’s ears.

Freya was shocked upon hearing it. “How could it be? Wes—”

Catherine covered her mouth and warned her with a low voice, “You’d better be careful. Don’t ever let
the cat out of the bag, especially not in front of him.”

“Oh.” Freya lowered her voice and said, “But if you’re right and Ethan wanted you to watch out for him,
does it mean that Wesley is going to hurt you?”



“I have no idea as well.” A complicated look crossed Catherine’s face. “Anyway, no matter how good
Wesley is at hiding, I think he’ll probably reveal his true self during such an occasion. With so many

influential figures here, I’m sure he’ll take great pains to butter them up.”

“Yeah.” Freya came to a realization through Catherine’s words. “I’ll help you keep an eye on him and
also ask Ryan to probe him.”

“Ryan?” Catherine smiled discreetly. “Are you close to this little brother who came out of nowhere?”

“Hehe. The Snows are actually quite nice, except for Rodney, that dumb*ss.” Freya snorted with
disgust.

“That sounds like a good plan too. I saw Wesley fawning over Ryan just now. Anyway, don’t let anyone
know what I’ve just told you, ” Catherine reminded Freya.
