Chapter 1168


    Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1168


    Only when Suzie was tired of ying did Catherine carry her out of the pool. She helped Suzie wipe her


    body and wrapped a towel around her from behind.


    She turned around, only to meet Shaun’s deep -set eyes.


    “Come on. Close your eyes.”


    He lowered his head and wiped the water off Catherine’s neck and body.


    This intimate gesture made Catherine feel so awkward that she tilted away. “You don’t have to wipe


    anymore. I’m going to take a showerter.”


    “Okay. Bring this towel with you. It’s cold at night. Don’t catch a cold.”


    Shaun nodded gently and watched Catherine leave with Suzie. Then, he turned around and met Lucas’


    distracted gaze.


    “Are you trying to make peace with Mommy?” Lucas’ lips twitched. “Forget it. I admit that you’re quite


    capable, but Mommy has already married Uncle Wesley. I won’t take your side.”


    “Lucas, let me teach you something, ” Shaun said seriously, “One must not give up easily.”


    Lucas rolled his eyes. “Not giving up easily and pestering someone relentlessly are two different things.”


    “When have I pestered her relentlessly?” Shaun raised his brows. “Have you seen your mommy acting


    like she’s annoyed at me?”


    “Hasn’t she made it obvious enough?”


    “No. I can only see that she’s in a dilemma because she’s afraid that she’ll fall for me again.”


    Shaun let out a sigh. “You won’t understand these matters between adults. When you fall for a girl one


    day, you’ll then understand how I feel. At this point, you still don’t know what love is.”


    Lucas was speechless.


    Shaun felt that his words had no impact on Lucas, considering that he was not even three years old. To


    Lucas, love was something iprehensible.


    “Also, I want to remind you of something.” Shaun stared at Lucas earnestly. “Sometimes, we need a pair


    of observant eyes because the adult world is veryplicated. You won’t be able to see through


    hypocrites easily.”


    “What do you mean?” Lucas pulled a long face. “ Are you saying that Uncle Wesley is a hypocrite?”


    Shaun did not admit it nor deny it. “Lucas, I just want to tell you that adults won’t reveal their wicked side


    on their faces or through their actions. I hope you’ll know how to analyze them. Your mommy is the


    president of a listedpany, while your grandpa has assets worth hundreds of billions of dors.


    There’ll be a lot of people approaching you with ulterior motives and trying to gain advantages from you


    in the future. As a kid, you might think you’re clever, but other people already know how they can trick


    you.”


    Lucas opened his mouth grumpily, but after some thought, he pursed his thin lips again. He frowned and


    remained silent for a long time.


    When Catherine came out, he saw Shaun and Lucas in silence.


    “What’s wrong with you guys?” She found them acting strange.


    “I’m teaching him how to distinguish between good people and bad people. ” Shaun immediately


    exined, “Having been a victim, I’m very experienced in this area. No one understands this more than I


    do.”This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    Catherine was at a loss for words.


    Since he had knowledge of this, she really had no idea what to say. Then, she darted a nce at Lucas.


    “Alright. It’s good for you to learn about this as well. After all, your dad met a woman at the age of seven


    or eight who continued to deceive him for over ten years. You should learn about this now so that you


    won’t follow in his footsteps.”


    Stung by Catherine’s words, Shaun hung his head silently.


    Lucas shot a look at Shaun in disgust. “I’m not as foolish as him.”


    Catherine sighed. “You can’t say that. It seems to happen to your family a lot. Your granny was deceived


    for 3o years, while your dad was deceived for 2o years. You guys— ”


    “We won’t be deceived, ” Lucas and Suzie interrupted Catherine simultaneously. “We take after you,


    Mommy.”


    “Uh…”


    Catherine was dumbfounded. In fact, she felt that… She had been deceived before too, especially in


    regards to her marriage. Nevertheless, as their mother, she wanted to retain her dignity.


    ”Let’s go. I’ll bring you to get your car.” Shaun changed the topic. ”Are you avable at night tomorrow?


    Let’s apany the kids to… ”
