Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1122 âAsk Gary to settle it,â Mason said nonchalantly.
âWill Gary agree on it?â A helpless expression flashed across Mauriceâs face. âIâm sure the Holt family would rather sacrifice Chelsea than offend the Mead family and the Snow family.
âI have dirt on the Holt family. When I threaten them, Iâll also give them some benefits.â
Mason paused for an instant and glanced at Charlie gravely. âItâs not as simple as you guys think. We can shift the blame to Chelsea, but the Mead family and the Snow family arenât fools. Theyâll definitely suspect us.â
âSo⦠what should we do?â Charlieâs face turned ghastly.
âOffer them benefits.â Mason secretly rubbed his fingers together. âLetâs start from the Mead family.
Money talks.â
âOkay, I got it. Uncle Mason, youâre awesome.â Charlie admired Mason a lot However, Mason remained indifferent. âUse your brains before you act next time. It doesnât matter if you die. Just donât drag the Campos family into the mess.â
Abashed, Charlie could not help but lower his head and admit his reckless impetuousness this time. â
Iâm sorry.â
âShaun is even more skillful than a top special agent. If youâre planning to kill him with your poor tactics, you can dream on.â Mason glowered at Charlie. âNow, get lost.â
After Charlie left despondently, Maurice said with concern, âWill Shaun jump at this opportunity to develop a good relationship with the Mead family? We canât possibly allow him to make a comeback.â
âGet someone to keep an eye on him all the time.â
After spending a night in the hospital, Shaun directly headed to Hill Corporation for work.
Once Lea knew that he came, she walked to him and told him off, âGo back and rest. Youâve just been discharged from the hospital, yet the first thing you do is to come to the office. Donât you dare drop dead in the office. I still want you to be around in my last moments.â
Shaun raised his eyebrows. He could sense her care for him from her somber tone. âDonât worry. Iâll be with you in your last moments.â
Lea lifted her brows. She felt that something seemed quite different about him.
Although Shaun had been coming to the office every day before this, he hardly did anything. He just lived in a daze, as if he had lost all motivation to live.
Could he have bestirred himself because he was on the verge of death last night?
âWhat actually happened last night?â
When Lea recalled almost losing this son last night, her gaze turned gentle. âWhy did the elevator suddenly go wrong? Was it because someone planned to kill Hannah? Or could the person be targeting you?â
âIâm not sure. Just leave it to the police to find out, â Shaun responded indifferently.
âIs the Campos family trying to kill you? I heard both the Campos family and the Holt family were targeting you at the banquetâ¦â
âThereâs no evidence, â Shaun interrupted her.
Leaâs expression looked awful. It even had a hint of hatred and despair.
Since Shaun did not deny it, it meant that it could be the Campos familyâs doing.
She could not get her head around it. The Campos family was already the most influential family in Australia, Hill Corporation had already been defeated and left in a tight corner, and she had also been abandoned. She had even lost one of her sons.
In this case, why would the Campos family want to go as far as killing her family?
What had she done wrong to make the Campos family turn against people around her time and time again?
âDonât overthink things.â Shaun looked at her expression. âThis matter has nothing to do with you. The Campos family is petty. Whatâs more, I jeered at Charlie last time, so he has been holding a grudge against me ever since.â
Lea was astounded. âTheyâre trying to kill you just because of that jeer?â
