Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1519 Matthewâs phone rang for quite a while before he answered it.
He sounded rather surprised, yet he kept his voice low. âHi. I didnât expect you to take the initiative to call me.â
âAm I interrupting your date?â As a sharp -witted person, Catherine guessed that it might be inconvenient for him to speak now.
âIâm not on a date. I was just chatting with my family. â Matthew explained with a faint smile, âAs I said, I donât have a girlfriend.â
âAre your parents in Canberra?â Catherine was a little surprised. It was no wonder he rarely contacted her.
Indeed, he previously contacted her a lot to inquire about the villa and get familiar with Canberra.
âThey came a few days ago.â
Amid her thoughts, Catherine realized that was exactly when something happened to Hill Corporation.
âAre you free for lunch tomorrow? Iâd like to ask you something.â
âThatâs rare. Iâve always been the one to consult you,â Matthew said jokingly.
âWill you be available? Otherwiseâ¦â
âYes. Letâs make it at noon tomorrow.â Matthew agreed categorically.
After hanging up, Matthew felt quite uneasy while standing on the balcony. Could Catherine have found out about something since she called him at this time? It was unlikely as he had always been cautious.
Perhaps she wanted to ask him for help regarding Hill Corporationâs matter.
âMatthew, who were you talking to on the phone? Why are you so mysterious? You even walked away.â
Sheryl, who was in the living room, waved at him. âCome over. Your sister has brought home some good food.â
â Itâs from an old restaurant in Canberra that my friend recommended. Mom, I know you love spicy food, and so do I. Thatâs why I ordered a set for takeaway,â Rebecca said while beaming.
âIt seems that daughters are more caring.â Sheryl purposely shot a look at her son.
Matthew felt aggrieved. âMom, if I care for you too much, Dad will find me annoying for being the third wheel.â
Titus snorted. âIâm not as petty as you.â
Matthew chuckled silently. âWho else in the world could be pettier than you?â
âEnough. Whatâs the fuss between you guys?â Sheryl glared at Titus and Matthew. Then, she asked Rebecca gently, âWhat did you do during your outing with Bryce today? How was it?â
âWe went to Zenith Clubhouse that he owns. I also invited two of my old friends there, butâ¦â Rebecca paused. Suddenly, she furrowed her brows in annoyance.
âBut what?â Sheryl thought Rebecca was taken advantage of.
âBut halfway through the gathering, Catherine and two of her friends came to look for trouble. One of them was the Eldest Young Master of the Snow family. Luckily, Young Master Zeller was around, but he got into a fight with Eldest Young Master Snow because I was humiliated, â Rebecca said pathetically.
Matthew was shocked, while Sheryl scowled. âWho i s the Snow family?â
Matthew could not help but explain, âNathan from the Snow family is going to be the new prime minister of Australia in half a month. Young Master Snow is Nathanâs nephew. Also, I heard Rodney and Shaun are as thick as thieves.â
Sheryl said indifferently, âItâs a shame that I returned too late. If Iâd come back earlier, I wouldâve stopped Nathan from running for prime minister.â
âWifey, if youâre unhappy about it, I can make some trouble for the Snow family,â Titus immediately suggested to please his wife.
