Chapter 1174

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

After all, Catherine had always perceived Wesley as an elegant gentleman with a noble reputation.

“Cathy, where’s Freya? Go and have fun with her. I’m afraid you’ll feel bored mingling with people like
us.” Smiling, Wesley persuaded her to leave.

“But I’m your wife. It’s not good to walk away just like that.” Pretending as if she was torn, Catherine
continued, “What’s more, Shaun is here. I’m worried that you’ll overthink.”

“No. I trust you.” Wesley gazed at her earnestly.

Catherine nearly believed in his words.

She turned around and walked away. However, Instead of scurrying off, she hid in an inconspicuous
spot. If she had not done this, she would not have seen Wesley sitting beside Senator Mead and
attentively lighting a cigarette for him.

At the sight of his behavior, frustration crept into Catherine’s mind.

She could sense that Wesley had been trying to appear gentle and elegant in front of her before this.

Did it mean that there was another side of him unknown to her when she was not around?

“Miss Jones, you’re here.” A female servant walked to her. “Miss Lynch has been looking for you
everywhere. She’s asking you to head over as she wants to introduce two people to you.”

“Alright.”

Catherine nodded and walked to the courtyard with the servant.



There was a large pool in the back garden. Some people were playing in the pool, while some were
chatting over the barbecue grill.

The servant suddenly stopped by the pool. “Miss Jones, please hold on. My shoelaces are loose.”

When she bent over to tie her shoelaces, she swiftly tried to push Catherine.

A glint flashed across Catherine’s eyes. She smiled faintly and dodged aside. The servant was the one
who fell into the pool instead.

Due to the huge splash of water, everyone turned their eyes to the pool.

“Help! Someone has fallen into the pool, ” Catherine screamed while feigning fear.

Someone immediately saved the servant, who was in a sorry state.

Upon hearing Catherine’s scream, Shaun ran out from a dark spot and fixed his eyes on her nervously.
“Are you okay?”

“What do you think would’ve happened to me?” Catherine rolled her eyes and snorted. “Because of you,
I almost became the one who fell into the pool. Luckily, I was clever enough.”

Shaun froze for a moment before he glanced sideways at the servant’s silhouette. His handsome face
darkened. Given that he was not a fool, he had more or less guessed what was going on.

“What’s the matter?” Hannah hurried over. She had been looking forward to watching Catherine fall into
the pool in her gown, yet what she ended up seeing was the servant, whom she gave her order to, being
saved out of the pool. It infuriated her so much that she almost vomited blood.

When Hannah noticed how Shaun was protecting Catherine with a concerned look, her hatred for
Catherine reached its peak.



Hannah had not been able to find Shaun when she looked everywhere for him just now. With Catherine’s
scream, however, he showed up straight away.

She had underestimated Shaun’s love for Catherine.

“Miss… ” The servant was shocked to see Hannah’s eyes that were full of displeasure. She shuddered
and quickly said, “I don’t know how I offended Miss Jones. She suddenly pushed me into the pool.”

Upon hearing the remark, everyone shifted their gaze to Catherine.

Hannah asked furiously, “Madam Lyons, why did you do that?”

Her best friend, Camilla, teased, “Madam Lyons, you’ve divorced President Hill. It’s not right to ruin
Hannah’s birthday party just because she’s into him.” After hearing what Camilla said, the guests began
whispering to each other.
