Chapter 1322

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

“Apparently, you know quite a lot of things.” Shaun’s tone was grim.

Upon hearing it, Thomas’s heart raced in fear. “I can be your witness, but you need to promise me one
thing, that is to ask Chester to protect me. I don’t want to be kidnapped anymore.”

Although Shaun was a shadow of his former self, he was Chester’s good friend. In this regard, Thomas
believed that Chester would still be able to protect him.

“Kidnap?” Shaun was startled.

“Yes. Sarah, that b*tch, probably thinks that I always give her trouble and disrupt her plans, so she wants
to kill me.” Thomas said in agony, “I’ve been locked in a dark cellar for the past one month. Every day
was like a living hell for me. There was a masked woman who occasionally came and tortured me. She
even planned on killing me in the end, but I escaped. I’m still wounded.”

“Alright. I’ll get someone to protect you. Keep a low

profile and don’t let Sarah find out,” Shaun immediately said.

“Okay, okay. Young Master Hill, I’m counting on you to protect my life.” Thomas could not be bothered
about other things at this point.

On the other end.

Shaun put down his phone.

In the private room, Catherine was flipping the oily barbecued meat. The aroma of both the cumin and
the meat subsequently permeated the room. “ Thomas called you and told you that Sarah wants to kill
him, huh?”



“Mm.” Shaun could not make heads or tails of Thomas either. “From his tone, he seemed to have gotten
the fright of his life.”

“Now that he has come to you to ask for help, he must be tortured both mentally and physically. ”
Catherine could not resist tutting. “Having said that, it’s a bit strange. Would a cruel person like Sarah
allow him to escape?”

“That’s what I’m thinking too.” Shaun pondered. “ I suspect someone purposely kidnapped Thomas and
framed Sarah with the sole intention of making

these siblings hate each other.”

“Perhaps.” Catherine shrugged. “Wicked people like them would surely have offended other people apart
from us. You’re really lucky this time, Attorney Hill. It seems like you’ll win the case.”

“Please. I can win it even without Thomas. I just need to use some tactics.”

Shaun took a piece of meat and some salad for her. “ Cathy, believe me. My reputation as the most
brilliant attorney in Australia is well earned.”

“Sure, sure. You once lost to the attorney whom I hired with two thousand dollars, ” Catherine mocked
him.

“That time… It wasn’t because I couldn’t beat him. I knew that I misunderstood you, so I didn’t want to
proceed with the lawsuit, ” Shaun explained with a tinge of guilt.

At the mention of that issue, Catherine went silent.

Although it was over, she could not get over the fact that Logan had lost his finger.



Silence instantly befell the private room. Shaun tightened his grip on the fork. “Cathy, I’d like to make it
up to Logan. See what he needs— ”

“He’s a man who’s easily satisfied. He’s quite content with his present condition, and there’s nothing else
he needs. ” Catherine interrupted him and changed the topic. “Let’s eat.”

Nevertheless, the situation was rather awkward after that. No matter what Shaun said, Catherine was not
really in the mood to interact with him.

As Logan’s boss, she had failed to protect his subordinate, who had been protecting her wholeheartedly.
She even got together with the person who chopped off his finger. As such, Catherine was quite annoyed
with herself.

Shaun stared at her silently and gradually spoke less.

Despite the fact that he had gotten back together with Catherine, he knew that certain wounds were
impossible to heal.
