Old Madam Hill reminded Shaun, "By the way, Suzie’s a little over two years old but not three years old yet. When you're buying presents, buy them according to her age. Also, let me inform you that I'm letting Suzie use the room that was prepared for the twins previously. You won't be using it now anyway."
She hung up the call after she finished speaking. 1
Shaun held his phone and remained in the same position for a long time.
A little over two years old.
If Catherine's children were alive, they would have been around that age too.
At that moment, his phone rang again.
It was Sarah who called. "Shaunic, do you still have to work extra hours today? Didn't we agree to pick a wedding shoot package together later?"
"I don’t have time today. I have to go to the manor after I finish my work, so I won't be going home," Shaun explained.
Sarah bit her lip. "Are you still angry at me because m y brother got someone to destroy Catherine's house? Shaunic, I really didn't know about it. I warned him before, but sometimes he just doesn’t listen to me. I'm
sorry. Your reputation is damaged because I have a brother like that..."
"Sarah, let bygones be bygones. But I suggest that you keep your distance from him. He’s already beyond saving," Shaun interrupted her.
Listening to some words once or twice would make him feel bad for her. However, when it was brought up too often, he would just be even more repulsed by Thomas.
"... Okay," Sarah replied embarrassedly.
"I really have a matter to attend to at the manor today."
After Shaun ended the call, he asked Hadley to prepare presents for the child.
When Hadley heard that Liam had a two-year-old illegitimate daughter, he was in a daze.
