Shaun's chest ached at Freya's words.
He looked at Catherine's cold face and suddenly remembered that just a short while ago, the two of them were still swimming at Mount Wellington. Her bright and clear eyes, the way she occasionally acted coquettishly with him, and how sweet her laugh was...
How did it all change in the blink of an eye?
"I’m..."
"You don't have to say that you're sorry." Catherine's clear and cold voice interrupted him. "Because I'll never forgive you."
"You'd better go protect your precious Sarah," Freya mockingly said, "After all, if something happens to her, you'll always and unconditionally go out of your way to accompany her and protect her. Shaun Hill, in your eyes, Sarah's position is just too special. Why can't you admit it?
"On the one hand, you think you don't love her, yet you want to protect her. On the other hand, you want Catherine's love, yet you want her to come back to you no matter how much you hurt her. Do you think you're filming a drama?" 4
Shaun's delicate and handsome face became pale.
Freya was indescribably happy at his expression. "By the way, I accidentally heard that you gave Sarah a house, a car, and billions of dollars when you broke up with her? My God. That must be the world's most expensive break-up fee. May I ask what you gave to Cathy when you divorced her?" 2
“Cathy, I won't do it again. I swear!" Shaun panicked.
The more Freya spoke, the more he became acutely aware that he had been unfair to Catherine.
"Stop swearing. Your promises make me sick. Shaun Hill, stay away from me in the future. What you can give me isn’t happiness; it's pain that drives me into the abyss time and again. I can never forgive you, so don’t come looking for me again. You disgust me."
Catherine went into the elevator without looking back.
Shaun’s legs felt like they were filled with lead when h e faced her hateful eyes. He tried to approach her but was unable to move.
