Let me go, Mr. Hill By Shallow South Chapter 1854 Of course, Patrick also understood that their statuses were different now. She was a princess and the pearl of the Lynch family, whereas he was just the fallen Young Master of the Jackson family.
âPatrick, letâs go.â Linda tugged at Patrick apprehensively.
Since Rebecca was dead, she did not dare to provoke Freya and Rodney anymore.
âWhat? Why are you running when you see me?â Rodneyâs lips curled into a sneer. âWerenât you quite happy throwing in your lot with Rebecca? Oh, by the way, that friend of yours was also found to be a fraudster, and her entire family had gone to jail. It was a huge fraud involving hundreds of billions. I remember you had a really good relationship with her back then. You werenât dragged into it, were you? Did the police investigate you?â
âNo, I didnâtâ¦â Linda panicked, and her face turned white as snow. â Iâm not familiar with Rebecca at all.â
âNot familiar?â Rodney smiled wickedly. âThat canât be. Back then, Rebecca even introduced you to the former prime ministerâs grandson and saved Patrick out of jail. But youâre saying that youâre not familiar with her? Do you think Iâm stupid? I think you must be a fish that slipped through the net, so you have to be caught and put on trial.â
Then, he took out his phone.
Linda looked at Patrick pleadingly. âPatrick, I really didnât know. You have to help me. I was cheated by Rebecca. I only did it because I wanted to save you. Freya is just there, so please help me beg for mercy. I donât want to go to jail. Iâm innocent.â
Patrick could not refute it. He had to admit that he only got out of jail because of Lindaâs help.
He looked up at Freya with a complicated gaze and walked towards her.
However, just as he took a step, Rodney stopped him.
âWhat are you doing? Are you planning to harass my wife?â Rodney warned coldly, âGet lost.â
Patrickâs face reddened in embarrassment, but he could not stand Lindaâs bitter pleading. Hence, he forced his way through. âFreyaâ¦â
He went to her side and looked at her face up close.
Only then did he realize that her face was a little rounder than before, but she seemed much more radiant. Her skin was excellent, and even the aura she exuded was different from what it used to be.
The difference between them now was like the difference between heaven and earth.
âDo you need something?â Freya looked at him calmly, her gaze flat.
Patrickâs heart suddenly flooded with pain, and he was suddenly at a loss. âIâ¦â
âHe wants to plead for mercy on Lindaâs behalf. â Rodney walked over lazily. âDidnât Linda get along well with Rebecca? Rebecca was suspected of fraud, so itâs standard procedure to investigate her friends too. But Patrick canât bear to let Linda be investigated.â
Patrick panicked. âThatâs not it. I justâ¦â
âSo youâre here to plead for mercy on Lindaâs behalf?â Freya interrupted him and stared at him with her dark eyes.
Patrick felt a lump in his throat. In the end, he could only nod stiffly. âI admit that Linda might have done a lot of bad things to you. But when it comes to Rebecca, Linda might reallyâ¦â
âMight? Really?â Freya smiled pensively. â President Jackson, you know Rebecca is involved in a huge national-level fraud. Are you still trying to vouch for Linda? Have you ever thought of what youâll face if youâre wrong? Have you thought about your parents? When you were in prison, your parents ran all around trying to help you. They even knelt at the entrance of the Lynch residence. Youâre not young anymore to be so immature.â
Patrickâs handsome face turned pale.
In the past, he always felt that Freya was not sensible and liked to kick up a fuss without reason.
Now, in her eyes, he was so immature that he looked like an idiot.
Freya said faintly, âIn fact, even if Linda is investigated, she wonât necessarily go to jail. As long as she didnât do anything, the police canât do anything to her. But if sheâs suspected of it, itâs only natural that she goes to jail, isnât it?â
