Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 315
“Alright, enough of that. Her life has nothing to do with me.”
Shaun started the car and sped off.
With the car traveling like a rocket on the road, Hadley was so scared that he clutched the handle above his head.
Once Shaun arrived at the office, he went upstairs straight away.
Hadley poured a cup of coffee for him. Just as he turned around to leave, Shaun suddenly called out to him, “Stop. What have you found out?”
“…”
What a fickle-minded man.
Hadley looked back and reported to him seriously, “The car was tampered with by someone from the Yule family, and it was the gardener’s doing. He received a sum of money from Brody Jarrett, who took charge of the area in Flagstaff City. As far as I know, Brody and Fergus hang out very frequently. After investigating this matter, however, Fergus seems to have nothing to do with it.”
“That’s unsurprising. Given that Fergus has done a lot of bad things, he’s quite experienced in such things.” Shaun raised his coffee cup and blew on it. “What has Joel found out about this matter?”
“He has gotten the car investigated, but the car is already burnt. What’s more, there weren’t any surveillance cameras at the scene. I’m guessing he won’t be able to find out anything,” Hadley said, “He probably wouldn’t expect the Wicks family to be so cruel.”
“Joel is a decent man, but unfortunately, people like him get tricked far too easily.” Shaun scoffed.
“Elder Young Master Hill, should I inform Cath—”
“What’s the point of telling her?” Shaun suddenly tossed the coffee cup on the table. “She’s not the one who’s paying you either. It’ll serve the foolish woman right if she dies.”
Hadley was at a loss for words.
“Get lost.” Shaun flew into a temper.
Hadley was well aware of his grumpiness. He then asked someone to follow up on the matter. Sure enough, he received new updates about it at night.
