Crawling out and waiting for help did not necessarily mean that he was saved, as the things in the shaft could kill him brutally at any time.
To put it another way, staying alive was not easy. In fact, it was nothing short of a miracle that he managed to save someone else as well.
Even so, Catherine remained indifferent. "Young Master Hill, how impressive of you. You didn't forget t o save the woman even though you were on the verge o f death."
The woman even had a crush on him now. Indeed, he would never forget to lure women.
Shaun raised his brows when he heard her. "Cathy, you're jealous."
"Jealous, your *ss."
Despite being an elite young lady, Catherine was forced to use swear words time and time again because of him. "Shaun, you claimed that Wesley has ulterior motives, but I think you're no different than him. Now that you've saved Senator Mead's daughter, his family probably considers you as Hannah's lifesaver and feels eternally grateful to you. Perhaps you can turn things around again after marrying
Hannah. That’s quite a brilliant plan too."
The spark in Shaun's eyes vanished. He had never expected this to be Catherine’s impression of him.
A hint of self-mockery lit up in his eyes. Nevertheless, who could he blame?
He was the one who had destroyed his own image in her heart, bit by bit.
"No, Cathy."
He explained to her softly, "If I escaped without saving Hannah today, Senator Mead would’ve taken my life away. For someone of his character, he wouldn't let m e off the hook even if I wasn't the one who killed her daughter. He would wonder what gave me the right to survive when his daughter was dead. He wouldn't bother considering how difficult it was to escape the situation. In fact, saving his daughter was much harder than reaching the sky."
Catherine was suddenly at a loss for words.
Indeed, the more powerful one was, the more selfish they would be.
In everyone else’s eyes, their family's lives were more significant than other people's.
It seemed that her earlier remarks had gone too far.
