Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1438 Lucas said in a low voice, âYou guys are deceiving us kids. I heard that when parents hug each other to sleep, theyâll easily have a new baby.â
âYou guys want a new baby?â Suzie was stunned for a moment before her eyes reddened. âIsnât having Lucas and me enough? You still want a new baby? I donât approve of it.â
Catherine and Shaun were awkward and speechless.
âLucas, who did you hear that from? Your mom and I were just sleeping,â Shaun explained while the corners of his mouth twitched. âHaving both of you as third wheelers is enough. We donât need another one.â
âWhen did we become third wheelers?â Suzie was confused.
âIt means we are always in their faces.â Lucas said, âWeâre disturbing his and Momâs alone time.â
âThatâs too much.â Suzie was furious. âWe didnât even hate you for snatching our mom. Go away.â
The little girl crawled over and pushed Shaun away, sitting in Catherineâs embrace. âMom, you guys have slept for a very long time. When are we going to the hospital to visit Granny?â
Catherine looked at the time. It was already 3:00 p.m. âLetâs go now.â
When they were about to depart, Shaun received a call from the police station. âIt seems like Mason has confessed to some new offenses, so the police have asked me to go over. You can go ahead with the children first. Iâll arrange for Hadley to escort you guys.â
Catherine nodded.
Once Shaun arrived at the police station, the chief, who was in charge of the case, gave him a copy of Masonâs statement.
After reading through it, Shaun remained silent for a long time.
He really did not expect Mason to have done a lot more bad deeds than he had imagined.
Furthermore, it seemed like Mason was afraid that Shaun would hurt his son too. As such, he explained everything clearly.
âPlease continue interrogating him on whether there are any accomplices or not,â Shaun said.
âWe would, but he had a lot of injuries on him when we caught him during dawn. Currently, his body canât take it, so we plan to let him rest for two days. Then, weâll continue interrogating him.â
âThank you.â
Shaun took the statement and left.
He drove to the hospital straight away. However, he did not go to Leaâs ward. Instead, he went to Chesterâs office.
Chester had just returned after finishing his rounds. He removed his stethoscope and punched Shaunâs body lightly. A smile then etched on his handsome face. âCongratulations, Young Master Hill. The public is in an uproar now. You, Young Master Hill, are about to become the First Young Master of Australia again. Tsk, you stole the limelight from me again.â
Shaun gazed at Chester with furrowed brows and did not say a word.
âAlright, donât look so solemn. Iâve asked the doctor whoâs in charge of your mom. Sheâll recover after one or two monthsâ rest, â Chester said with a smile.
âI just came from the police station. When the police interrogated Mason, he revealed some things that I think you need to know. â Shaun passed the statement to Chester. âThree years ago, Charity really was framed for Shelleyâs death. The person who planned all of it was Mason.â
Chesterâs body stiffened. He gazed at that statement and did not move.
Seeing that Chester did not take the statement, Shaun kept it. âWhat Cathy said was real. Back then, after I sent Rebecca away, it was Mason who brought Rebecca out. He made her undergo plastic surgery to have Shelleyâs looks and arranged for her to be by my side. At that time, the milk Shelley gave me to drink contained drugs that made my memory deteriorate. After Catherine realized Shelley was Rebecca in disguise, they played along and burnt the real Shelley. Afterward, they blamed it on Charity.â
Chester turned around. His handsome face was so calm that it looked cold.
However, only he knew how tight his heart was clenching that he felt like he could suffocate for a few seconds.
