Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 470
Catherine suppressed the nauseous feeling until she rushed into the washroom to throw it all up.
She had drunk too much the last time that it had upset her stomach lately.
After that, she went ahead to read the document in her hand.
‘Not related’ appeared in front of her eyes in red, bold words.
What the hell? She was utterly shocked.
Melanie was not Joel’s daughter. However, he abandoned her mother to marry Nicola in the past
because the latter was pregnant.
In other words, Nicola had cheated on Joel more than twenty years ago. That man must be Damien.
Why else would Melanie resemble Joel?
She then put the document away carefully.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis was shocking news but now was not the time to make it public.
Just as she was thinking about that, Doctor Angelo called her on the phone. “Miss Jones, the place I
was staying at last night caught on fire all of a sudden. Fortunately, you reminded me that I might be in
danger lately, so I’ve been secretly leaving through the backdoor after I get home. Your predictions are
so accurate.”
“That’s good. Please instruct your assistant to tell the public that you died in the fire. In the meantime,
please continue treating my dad in secret.”
She sighed at Damien’s ruthlessness to harm a world-famous doctor. Luckily, she predicted that the
man would target the doctor since Joel was under maximum watch.
Damien and the rest must believe Doctor Angelo was dead by now.
…
Yule villa.
Nicola smiled delightfully at the news of the doctor’s death. “He really didn’t disappoint. Joel will not
regain consciousness so soon now that Doctor Angelo’s dead. Catherine’s too stupid to keep an eye
on the hospital only. She must be crying her heart out now.”
Melanie was confused. “Mom, who do you mean by him? My dad?”
“Yup, your dad is on his way here so the two of you can meet each other officially. We would have to
depend on him in the future.” Nicola patted her daughter on the head. Although she looked down on
that man all these years, she had to admit that he could provide her what she wanted, unlike Joel who
never stopped thinking about Sheryl.
Melanie looked at her with expectant eyes.
Tem minutes later, a man was pushed inside in a wheelchair.
Melanie was stunned to see him, but eventually, she thought it all made sense.
No wonder she looked like Joel even though he was not her real father. Moreover, Uncle Damien had

“Melanie, come over here. I’m your dad.” Damien gestured at her.
“Uncle Damien… It’s you?” She walked toward him hesitantly.
He frowned, and Nicola quickly explained the situation. “Actually, your uncle has been interested in me
since twenty or so years ago. But I didn’t know better and put all my hopes on Joel. In order to marry
him, your uncle and I even… After that, I told them that my child belongs to Joel to make him marry me.
All these years, your uncle has been looking after us. Without him, Catherine would probably have full
control of Yule Corporation by now.”
“Stop calling me uncle. Call me dad instead.” He held Melanie’s hands. “I’ll give you the best.”
“Thanks, Dad.” She wrapped her arms around his neck.
Damien treated her so much better than Joel. “Dad, I hate Catherine. I want her dead.”
“I’ll make anyone who bullies my daughter pay for their actions. But the priority right now is to speed up
your wedding with the Campos family,” he said.
“The Hill family will have no place in this city once the Yule and Campos reunite.”
