Let Me Go, Mr. Hill! Chapter 20
A shiver ran through Catherine’s body. She seemed to have forgotten that she made the cat pudding earlier based on the recipe in the book.“Uh… That was actually…”“You can make anything for me as long as I find it tasty.”Shaun reminded her with a grim expression. At that moment, he began to feel nauseous upon realizing that he had consumed cat food. Catherine felt helpless. “Actually, I made it for Fudge, but you ate it and even commented that it was tasty. At that moment… I was too afraid to tell you the truth.”“Catherine.”Shaun gnashed his teeth. Having lived through 28 years of life, this was the first time he had ever wanted to kill a woman so badly.She shrunk her neck upon being shouted at. “In fact, the ingredients... are quite nutritious.”“Since the food’s nutritious, why don’t you eat it yourself?”“Uh, I don’t find it tasty.”“Well done.”While pointing at her, Shaun recalled praising the taste of the food. He became so furious that his face darkened.Cather

By the time Shaun returned home from his morning run, he was startled to discover the grand feast spread out across the table. “You…”“Shaunny, I felt bad that you ate the cat pudding last night so I’m making it up to you with this breakfast spread,” Catherine said thoughtfully as she served him a bowl of oat porridge. There was a strange expression on his face. “It’s alright. You’ve already been punished last night.”She stood there with a tight feeling in her throat. “I was truly grossed out after having the cat’s food last night,” she replied slowly a couple of seconds later.He lowered his gaze to the ground without commenting further.“Are you going to work? Should I drop you off at the subway station?” he asked before heading to the door once he finished his breakfast.Catherine was startled but soon shook her head from side to side. “I was fired.” The desolation was audible in her voice.It was obvious from his forehead that he was frowning. He was told that she was wo

Catherine blushed in embarrassment.“I was involved in the designing of Melbourne theater and airport. Besides, I also have experience in project management, but people don’t believe me because of my age. I can’t possibly reveal my identity as the young lady of the Jones family as well because people might form their own opinions on my motive. That’s why I can only choose from being an assistant in a big company or being a designer in a small business,” she explained while quickly gathering the leaflets.“I don’t want to be an assistant because that’s basically doing odd administrative jobs. Someone higher up will undoubtedly take advantage of me and claim my design concepts as their own. I’d rather start building my profile in a small company. Not only can I share a percentage of profit when closing deals, but managing a project also gives out a handsome paycheck. After a year of doing this, I can probably save enough money, build a team, and start my own business. This hardship is

“Alright Jones, keep up with the good work. Perhaps the traffic will increase after lunch hour. Seize the opportunity to hand out the leaflets as quickly as you can. I agreed to hire you because I think your pretty appearance might attract clients. You must work hard. A great designer is useless if she can’t close deals.”“I will.”Catherine ended the call quietly.Shaun stole a glimpse of her out of the corners of his eyes. The car window was closed, thus he overheard the entire conversation with her boss. “You should work somewhere else.”She twitched her lips into a bitter smile. “It doesn’t matter which company I work for. Everything will be difficult in the beginning.”He tapped his fingers on the steering wheel without commenting further.Coincidentally, they drove past an unusual-looking building with a unique style. “What’s that place?” he asked casually.“Melbourne Culture and Technology Center.” Something came into her mind out of the blue. “The construction has just r

Of course, Chase dared not voice out his opinion. “I know the person in charge of the center quite well. Should I just pull some strings to give her company the project? As far as I know, many other big companies, Summit included, are participating in the bidding too. It’s a fierce competition.”“There’s no need for that. The chance is already presented to her. If she fails to acquire the project, it simply means that she’s not capable. Just ensure it’s a fair competition.” Chase was impressed. This man really showed no mercy even to his own wife. “Right, I’ll do as you say.”Five minutes later, Catherine returned with a bag of streaky pork. “It’s sorted,” he said casually.She appeared startled. Was that all it took? This uncle of Ethan must be a powerful man.“Thank you,” she said sincerely.The corners of his lips curled into a smile. “Now, let’s head home for roast pork.”A look of mock surprise washed over her face. “I wasn’t going to make that. I’m thinking of making pork

The project manager exclaimed, “It’s not that easy. Among the bidders are two listed companies, not to mention the several other companies with decades of experience in the field and numerous branches. I think Summit is probably going to be the winner of this competition.”Catherine felt a tightening feeling in her chest.It was not unusual that Summit was participating too. After all, big projects like this not only brought lots of profit but also honor. She had no idea which designer would represent them for this project. However, she was not concerned anyway. No one knew the designers working at Summit better than she did. Those people had plenty of experience but lacked creativity.After a brief consideration, she said, “President Yates, we should be courageous and take on the challenge. The Culture and Technology Center will be open to the public in the future. I think we can combine both cultural aspects and science concepts into the design to give users a different experience

“Yup, this is my sketch. Let me know what you think.”Catherine opened the laptop and handed it over.A mysterious dark blue color spread across Shaun’s eyes. At first glance, he felt as if he was traveling through a space-time tunnel surrounded by dazzling starlight.She began explaining the concept behind the design. “This sketch is titled ‘Cosmic Eye’. Look, don’t you think the countless nebulae here resemble pairs of twinkling eyes? I believe the main focus of our future expedition lies in the universe. Over here is the Fourth Dimensional World, designed using Escher style…”He listened attentively as she explained the details with assurance. His eyes remained as still as water although he was secretly overwhelmed with astonishment on the inside. This creativity with a touch of exploration was perfectly suitable for the interior design of a technology center. Indeed, he had underestimated her in the past. He did not expect a young lady born with a silver spoon in the mouth

“You’re saying she stole your concept?” President Sawyer frowned.“That’s right. I have evidence on my laptop too. I’ve spent a tremendous amount of time and effort putting these ideas into drawings, even starting the 2D sketch from scratch. I have the rough drawing with me as well.”“Show me.”Catherine immediately retrieved her laptop, but to her utter shock, all the documents had vanished. She failed to locate the initial sketches she kept in her purse too.At the speed of lightning, she snapped her head toward Henry who was standing nearby. “Did you delete my documents?”She could not think of anyone else apart from this man.“Have you lost your mind? I’m your colleague.” Henry sprung to his feet in rage.Rebecca, who was still standing on the podium, said in a stern voice, “Cathy, that’s enough. We can solve our personal dispute some other time, but this is a huge moment for Summit. Must you accuse me in front of the public simply to embarrass me?”President Sawyer appeare
