Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 1317

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1317

Chester took a deep drag at his cigarette and warned Eliza.

Eliza stared at his back. Out of his sight, her eyes flamed with hatred.

“As far as I know, Charity had very few friends. The only people she knew were Freya and Catherine. ” Chester said, “You didn’t even visit her when she was in jail. It makes me wonder how she came to be your friend. You even dug up her parents’ ashes. If you don’t give me an explanation…”

He paused for an instant and turned around with a cold gaze. “I could suspect that you’re doing some secret cult activities, and I’ll call the police to arrest you.”

Eliza looked at him. “ If I tell you that she appeared in my dream and delivered the message to me, will you believe it?”

“Do you take me for a fool?” Chester instantly burst into a scornful laugh.

Eliza bit her lip. “What I said is true.”

She slowly took out an antique pendant from her necklace. “It’s most probably because of this pendant. Charity and I used to live in the same courtyard when we were young, and we had a good relationship. My mom was friends with her mom too.

“When we were five, my mom and Charity’s mom took us to a church for worship one day. It was freezing that day, but because Charity and I were dressed too thinly, both of us nestled in my mom’s coat. A priest happened to walk past us and said that

… we were both ill-fated individuals who would die early.”

Chester fixed his eyes on that pendant and clenched his fists in spite of himself.

He recognized that pendant. It was an ordinary topaz that Charity had as well.

When he personally removed Charity’s clothes that year, he caught sight of the same pendant on her chest.

Eliza continued, “The priest noticed my close relationship with Charity, so he gave each of us a pendant. He said that the pendants came in a pair. They’ve been blessed by God, so they’re considered holy objects. If one pendant went missing, the other pendant would sense it.” Chester chuckled.
