Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 111
“Patrick’s dad and Linda’s dad are comrades. After retiring from military service, they set up a business together. Patrick and Linda lived in the same area and grew up together. He just treats Linda as his sister.”
“Somehow, I feel that Linda doesn’t just treat him as her brother.” Catherine threw a glance at Freya.
Freya remained silent for a moment, then sighed. “You think so too? I used to doubt it as well, but I have no evidence.”
“Just keep an eye on her.” Catherine reminded Freya.
“Okay.”
…
A week later.
Rebecca and her parents returned to Melbourne after vacation.
Shortly after they got back to the Jones family’s villa, Ethan gave Rebecca another call.
The moment Rebecca looked at the notification of the incoming call, her eyes flashed with annoyance. Nevertheless, she ended up picking up the call. With a smile, she asked, “What’s the matter, Ethan?”
“Can’t I just give you a random call?”
At that instant, Ethan was somewhere near the villa’s entrance where he had seen Rebecca and her parents return.
“What are you thinking? Of course, you can.” Ethan’s expression was not as grim when Catherine’s gentle voice sounded. However, her next sentence left him in a somber mood.
“But I’m still overseas. I plan to go surfing today, and I have a tight schedule.”
“Really?” Ethan felt anger burning in his chest. “But I saw you returning home just now. I’m right outside the entrance of your villa. Why are you lying to me?”
“…”
Rebecca glanced out of the window.
