After finishing the call, Shaun turned his head and said, “I’m going back to the company. I’ll be working
overtime tonight, but you can take the children back to Hill Manor tomorrow. It’s bigger there, so it’ll be
more fun for them.”
“Yes, yes! Can I ride a horse again?” Suzie turned to Lucas happily. “I’m telling you, Hill Manor is really,
really big. There’s a playground, a horse ranch, a small river, and lots and lots of fruits. It’s really fun.”
Although Lucas had never been to Hill Manor before, Suzie’s words made him a little excited.
“It’s fine for you two to stay there, but I… I haven’t divorced Wesley yet. ” Catherine was still concerned
about this matter. Although she did not care about how other people saw her, she did not feel
comfortable being with Shaun like this.
“Don’t worry. I don’t believe Wesley’s not involved in Mason’s incident.” Shaun snorted. “It’s just a
matter of time before the divorce.”
“Hm.” Catherine nodded.
With his current capability, she believed him.
After separating from Shaun, she had just taken the two children to the Hill residence when she
received a call from Logan. His voice sounded urgent and in pain. “Miss Jones, Austin and I have
gotten into an accident.”
“What happened?” Catherine was shocked. “How are you now?”
So many things had happened the past few days that she almost forgot she sent Logan and Austin to
keep an eye on the prison. When she counted down the days, today was the day Jeffery and Sally
would be released from prison.
“This evening, after Jeffery and his wife were released, an unlicensed luxury car picked them up. I
followed your instructions and followed them with Austin separately. But after following them for about
half an hour, I noticed that Austin had disappeared. I searched his vicinity for a long time and found him
tossed in an alley, covered in blood. When I went to save him, I was ambushed by two people and
suffered some injuries. Fortunately, I managed to take Austin and escaped to somewhere crowded, so
they didn’t come after us.”
Catherine asked anxiously, “How is Austin?”
“His injuries are worse than mine. He has been stabbed in the lower abdomen, so it’ll be difficult for him
to recover in a month. I also got cut in many places.”
Logan fell silent for a moment before saying, “I fought with those two guys, and their skills were the
same as mine. They had probably honed them on various battlefields. They’re even more powerful
than the assassins in Neah Bay. Otherwise, Austin wouldn’t have been knocked down so easily.”
Catherine was horrified. What kind of force was backing Rebecca?
“I don’t feel rest assured keeping you both in Melbourne. I’ll tell Shaun to get someone to pick you up, ”
she said.
“Okay. ” Logan did not refuse. “I just… find it a bit strange. The other party seemed to know I was with
Austin, so they ambushed me after defeating Austin. I think Rebecca seems to know us very well.”
“I’m guessing it’s because Wesley has told Rebecca about me. She must know me very well now. I was
careless. ” Catherine was filled with chagrin. “By the way, did you see who picked up Jeffery and
Sally?”
“The car windows were tinted, so I couldn’t look inside.”
