Chapter 242 You Know Nothing About Me

When Hailey and Brook took Catherine into the car,

Owen went out and shouted, "Hailey..."

Owen was about to say something, but Hailey

interrupted him, "You don't have to see me off. I

have already booked a room, and we can go by

TO

ourselves."

Owen had arranged the Plaza Grand Hotel for them,

which was an affiliate of Mazedew Group, but as

Jason would stay with Donald, Hailey and the

others felt it would be more convenient to stay in another place.

What's more, Plaza Grand Hotel was where Owen

and Eliza held their wedding, so Hailey didn't like this place from the beginning.

"If you don't like the environment of the Emerald

Hotel, I can also arrange other places for you...

Owen said urgently, but Hailey interrupted him

again, "Don't bother about it. I have a property in

the North City."

Her words made Owen's throat spasm.

Looking at his expression, Hailey added cruelly, "I

brought a house here in the first year of our

marriage. It was convenient for me to go to work

and to take a breath from your bad temper.' Owen looked at her deeply and said nothing.

"As I said, you know nothing about me."

Hailey said calmly, "I have made many mistakes in

front of you in the past, and you could have found

out the truth if you had cared a little bit about me.

Now you don't have to care about me at all."

Hailey knew she had to say something harsh, to

make it clear to Owen that they couldn't be together

anymore.

The car drove away in front of Owen and

disappeared at the end of the street.

Although Poya and North City are only separated by

a river, the two places have very different scenery.

Different from Poya's ink-wash-painting-like

beauty, North City was rougher, and the trees

standing on both sides of the roads were all

poplars.

Brook and Catherine kept their eyes fixed on Hailey.

Hailey was annoyed. She frowned and asked, "Why

are you looking at me all the time? Is there anything wrong with my face?"

Catherine's hands were still tied, and she said

hesitantly, "Aunt Hailey, can you untie me first?"

Hailey refused quickly, "No way."

Catherine leaned back on the back seat and started a

prying mode, "Aunt Hailey, is that handsome man

your ex-husband? Is he trying to be with you again?"

Chapter 242 You Know Nothing About Me

Hailey said with a cold expression, "It's not for a

kid to ask about. Stop sticking your nose into other people's business."

Catherine pouted, "I'm almost 18 years old, and I'm not a kid anymore..."

Brook croaked, "A grown-up won't keep running away from home."

Catherine stared at Brook disapprovingly. How

10

could Brook do that to her?

Hailey also scolded her with a stern face, "Since you

know that you're no longer a child, you should grow up and stop letting other people worry about

you."

Catherine was reprimanded by both of them, and no matter how good her mood was when she met Matthew, it was worn out now.

Then she remembered that her father was still

talking with Matthew in Moore Mansion, and Chapter 242 You Know Nothing About Me became uneasy again.

She didn't know what her father would say to Matt. Anyway, he wouldn't really want to kill the man she loved, right?...

Ryan hadn't really wanted to do something to Matthew, but it was true that he was in a bad mood. When he adopted Catherine, he told himself he

would raise her as his daughter. He also knew that when his daughter grew up, sooner or later she would marry someone else.

As Catherine grew up, he was also aware that he

would have to talk with some man one day, but he

didn't expect it would come so soon. Although Catherine was already 17 and was old

enough to know the meaning of love.

After all, it was understandable for her to fall in love

with a boy at such a young age. In his family,

09.05

people kept talking about the sooner having a baby

would be better, which must have had some effect

on Catherine's marriage view. It was spontaneous

for her to believe she would fall in love young and want to get married and have children as soon as possible.

He also thought about who he could entrust for his naughty little girl in the future, but he didn't expect

that the little brat would choose Matthew Holland.

"Mr. Holland," Ryan said slowly. Matthew wiped away his cold sweat, then added

some tea for Ryan and said with an embarrassed smile, "Dr. Sears, you and my father are of the same generation. I should call you 'uncle' but I think you don't like it, but I'd be taking advantage of you if I call you 'Brother'. So how about I call you

Dr. Sears, and you can call me by my name? Oh, my

Chapter 242 You Know Nothing About Me

T

name is Matthew, by the way."

Ryan looked at Matthew's smiling face in silence.

Matthew's eyes were clean like spring water, but

also very hard to see his emotions.

This boy looked like a timid, frivolous playboy, but

Ryan had checked his background. How could a boy

who

grew up and smoothly become the heir in such

a complicated environment like the Holland family

be simple?

This young man must be dangerous.

"Matthew." Ryan asked straightforwardly, "Do you

kod

like Catherine?"

Matthew blinked and said, "To be honest, Catherine

is a lovely girl, and I certainly like her. But she is

too young. No matter how shameless I am, I won't

go ask such a young girl to be my girlfriend."

Ryan raised his eyebrows and was a little bit surprised about this answer. Chapter 242 You Know Nothing About Me

Matthew chuckled and said, "Dr. Sears, I know what

you're worried about. Everyone knew that I was a playboy. Generally speaking, I seldom date a girl from a good family, because I was afraid of trouble. Especially for a girl like Catherine, I couldn't afford to offend you or the whole Fenneth, let alone she got an aunt like Hailey Newman. So before you warned me, I ran to North City to eschew Miss

Sears, but I didn't expect she would come after me.

I was also surprised..."

Ryan looked at him and said, "You are very

11

considerate.

"I'm a businessman, and I naturally have to consider the advantages and disadvantages carefully. Otherwise, I am afraid that I won't be

able to live until now."

Matthew smiled faintly and added more tea for

Chapter 242 You Know Nothing About Me Ryan, then said seriously, "So, you don't have to worry about me. As long as you can ask Ms. Sears not to follow me, I promise to stay far away from her. However, if she continues to come to me and insists on throwing herself into my arms, I may be able to control myself once or twice, but I can't promise what will happen if she keeps following me. After all, I'm never a gentleman." Matthew took a sip of his tea. His expression was

still calm and gentle, but the light in his eyes was as

cold as ice.

The atmosphere suddenly turned cold.
