Only the sound of the burning charcoal could be heard amid the silence.
A while later, Shaun took his coat and then put his hand around Catherine’s waist. "I don't feel like eating anymore. It's boring. Let's go to my room."
"I feel like going home," Catherine said all of a sudden.
Rodney was very glum. "Shaun, didn't you promise to g o fishing in the sea tomorrow morning? You can ask Hadley to send her home. It’s rare that all of us are free to get together and have fun."
"Suit yourselves.” Catherine broke free from Shaun's grasp and walked forward.
"I’m not joining tomorrow." Shaun went after Catherine with big strides.
Shelley hurriedly took some stuff and went after them as well.
Rodney was so annoyed that he kicked the barbecue grill down.
On their way home.
Hadley drove Catherine and Shaun, who were seated i n the backseats, as well as Shelley, who was seated in
the passenger seat.
After some time, Shelley cautiously handed a slice of cake to Catherine and Shaun. "Eldest Young Master Hill, Young Madam, have this slice of cake to fill your tummies since you guys didn't eat anything for dinner.”
Catherine remained still and stared Shelley down until her face became increasingly pale.
With a frown, Shaun stretched out his hand to take the cake. Then, he put it in front of Catherine. "It'll take at least another hour for us to get home. Just eat i t."
"No need. I don't feel like eating." Catherine lowered her head and played with her phone.
The atmosphere on their way back to the seaside villa was tense.
