Let Me Go, Mr. Hill novel Chapter 41

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 41
After Catherine had her SIM card replaced that afternoon, her phone displayed over ten missed calls.

Those calls were made by Freya, Jeffrey, Sally, and many other people.

Could it be that they were concerned about her after finding out what had happened the other day?

She could not help but feel a sense of anticipation deep down. Regardless of the reason, she still called Sally back.

“Mom…”

“You’re finally calling me back.” Sally’s furious voice sounded. “How long more do you intend on staying outside? Come home right now.”

The phrase ‘come home’ made Catherine feel bitter deep down. “Is that still my home?”

“Catherine, if you still don’t come back now, don’t come back forever. You don’t have to acknowledge your dad and me anymore either.”

Sally hung up once she was done speaking.

After some hesitation, Catherine eventually decided to return home.

After all, Jeffrey and Sally were the ones who raised her. She also wanted to bring home the recording containing Henry’s words and let them hear it so that they would become aware of Rebecca’s true colors.

…

An hour later, she drove to the Jones family’s villa.

Although it had only been a little over a month since she last returned, she felt that the people living here had changed.

After parking her car, she entered the villa. Jeffrey, Sally, and Rebecca were all in the living room.

The moment Catherine caught sight of Rebecca’s expression, hatred flamed within her. “Dad, Mom, do you know that she stole my design, and she—”

Sally opened the recording file and deleted it straight away.

“Mom, you… Why?” Catherine was staggered at her behavior. As much as she wanted to snatch her phone back, it was too late.

Sally’s gaze revealed coldness once again. “I can’t let you ruin your sister’s reputation and future with this recording that could be fake. You’d better not go too far.”

Catherine was so frustrated that she shuddered.

At that instant, she gave a hollow laugh.

“Now I see it. Both of you don’t even care if the recording is real or not. All you care about is her. How can you be so cruel? I’m also your daughter.”

Jeffrey slapped the table and stood up. “If I had known earlier that you would turn out to be such a menace, I would’ve abandoned you back then. Look at the great stuff you’ve done. You lost your reputation by doing something shameful during a live video. Would any decent person want to marry you in the future? Secondly, who on earth did you offend that made Summit lose a few huge projects?”

“I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Catherine shook her head while sobbing. “As my parents, aren’t you worried about me since I had encountered such an incident?”
