Rodney’s thin lips moved as he muttered the words. After pausing for a moment, he said, "You don't have t o thank me again. Didn't you already say it just now?"
With that, Freya stopped being coy. Now that she was married to Rodney, she felt that they were considered allies. There was no need to behave as though they were enemies.
Catherine was planning to drive to Hill Corporation at first, but she found out later through a call that Shaun was already home.
She then drove back to the Hill family’s villa, only to find that Suzie and Lucas had gone to Old Madam Hill’s place while Shaun was eating pasta.
However, she did not feel like eating, probably because she was in a bad mood.
As soon as Shaun noticed Catherine's return, he put down his fork. "Where did you go? I heard Aunty Yasmine say that you left in a hurry after your dinner."
"To investigate something." Catherine sat down and told him what happened tonight.
Upon hearing it, Shaun's face turned grave. He even looked slightly annoyed. "Catherine Jones, why didn't
you discuss such a serious matter with me?" "I noticed that you were tied up." Catherine battered her innocent eyes. Apparently, any man who saw those eyes could not bear to criticize her.
Nevertheless, Shaun lost his temper. "You don’t even know how wicked Bryce is. How dare Rodney hide it from me. Wasn't he afraid that you'd be left suffering there?”
“Since I had the guts to go there, I was confident that I could ride it out." With that, she shrugged helplessly. "I f I didn't go there, how can I be sure that Rebecca is related to the issue?"
"I’ll ask Liona members to keep a close watch on Bryce. I’m sure Bryce knows the person behind Rebecca, and he’ll go all out to flatter that person too. We’ll find out who it is by then," Shaun said coldly.
He was worried not because Hill Corporation was under investigation but because he was clueless about the other party's background.
"Are you sure you can solve it?" Catherine looked at him anxiously.
