Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 706
After Catherine hung up the phone, she said to her two kids, “Your grandpa isn’t feeling well, so I have to go to the hospital now. Both of you stay home and behave well, okay? Your godmother will be back in a moment.”
“Mommy, can we visit Grandpa too?” Lucas asked with a frown.
“Now is not the time. What’s more, Grandpa is too weak to talk to you. You can visit him sometime later.”
After comforting her two darling kids, she rushed to the hospital helplessly.
On the way there, she called Freya, asking her to return home early.

After Catherine left, Suzie got a stool so that she could climb to where the cabinet was and take some snacks. “Hehe. I knew Mom would hide the snacks here. She thought I wouldn’t know.”
Suzie tossed a packet of chips to Lucas. “Do you want it?”
“I don’t eat junk food. It’ll make you dumb.” Lucas glanced at her speechlessly. He did not understand why she found this kind of food tasty. Since his mother did not enjoy it, Suzie must have taken after Shaun.
After some thought, Lucas turned on the laptop and keyed in the words ‘Shaun Hill’.
Shortly after, an elegant man’s face appeared. The man was dressed in a black suit, and his gaze looked somber.
Suzie, who was eating chips, approached Lucas. “Wow, what a handsome man! He’s even more handsome than Uncle Wesley. I must get a boyfriend who is as handsome as him in the future.”
“This is Shaun Hill.” Lucas rolled his eyes at her. “Mommy probably got cheated because she had the same thought as you.”
“Our scummy dad?” Suzie widened her eyes.
Lucas replied with a low voice, “Mm. According to the news, he’s going to get married early next month. The woman he’ll be marrying is Sarah Langley, and this is how she looks.”
With that, he swiftly searched for Sarah’s photo.
“She could be hiding.”
“Go and have a look around.”
A few people were heard entering the bedroom. They rummaged around in the wardrobe and under the bed.
“There’s no one, Brother Vega.”
The speaker’s eyes then swept across the room. He fixed his eyes on the small suitcase in the wardrobe. “Could she be hiding inside it?”
When he stretched out his hand to open it, the man called Brother Vega kicked him. “You dickhead! Do you think an adult can fit in such a small suitcase?”
He paused for a moment before he glanced around and said, “Fine. Just smash everything here.”
With that, he used the steel rod he was holding to hit the suitcase…
