Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 707
Soon, those few men smashed everything in the house. Only after they finished messing up everything did they leave with satisfaction.
About five minutes after they left, the suitcase was zipped open from inside.
Lucas crawled out with a pale face and red eyes. At the same time, he clumsily carried Suzie out. Her head was covered with blood.
“Brother, it hurts so badly…” Suzie looked at him in a daze with a packet of snacks in her hand.
“Don’t be scared, Suzie. I’ll send you to the hospital right now.” Lucas was so anxious that tears trickled down his usually calm face.
As Lucas ran with Suzie on his back, he dialed 000 using his phone. Then, he called Catherine, “Mommy, Suzie is injured.”
“What?!”
Catherine, who had just arrived at the hospital, was overwhelmed with frustration as soon as she heard Lucas’ words. “How did she injure herself? Is it serious?”
“Mommy, I’ll talk to you later. Suzie just fainted. I’ve called the ambulance and I’m now sending her to the hospital.” Lucas sounded choked up.
Catherine knew Lucas’ personality very well. He would not be acting like this if Suzie’s injuries were not severe.
A wave of panic swept over Catherine, almost causing her to miss her footing.
By the time she hurried to the emergency room in another hospital, she saw Lucas standing weakly in the corridor alone. His arms and face were stained with blood.
The second he saw Catherine, he plopped into her arms while sobbing.
“Mommy, it was my fault. I shouldn’t have dragged Suzie into the suitcase and hidden inside with her.”
