Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 723 Shaun was speechless.
He knew that Suzie was talking about the safe box. Catherine had stayed in this room three years ago.
She was the one who set the password as well.
After Catherine left, a lot of her belongings in the room were cleared, except for the safe box. Nobody opened it because they did not know the password.
Before this, he had paid no mind to it at all and never even thought of opening it.
He did not expect that the little brat would open it by accident.
âItâs⦠a necklace, â Shaun said with a hoarse voice.
âIs it yours, Uncle Shaun?â Suzie asked out of curiosity. âIâm not too sure either. â Shaun could not recall anything. âBut I think I know who it belongs to. Iâll return it to her.â
âOkay.â Suzie put the necklace in his hands and went to wash her face.
During breakfast, Liam walked over and picked Suzie up. He gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, âSuzie, if your mom finds out that youâre sticking so closely to Shaun, will she be very angry?â
âDaddy, you mustnât tell her.â
Liam was on the verge of crying, but no tears came out. â So you still remember that my identity now is your dad? You only had eyes for Shaun after he came back yesterday. You abandoned me after sleeping halfway into the night. Little girl, you should control yourself.â
âUncle Liam, youâve misunderstood me. Iâm only using my looks to set a trap. â Suzie pouted. She said innocently, âIâm helping Mom teach my vicious stepmother a lesson.â
Liamâs head was about to explode.
âMy little master, please stay put for a while. Your mom already told me to send you to the same kindergarten as Lucas. â
âThatâs great. I have a black card that I want to pass to Lucas,â Suzie said in a serious tone.
Liam felt that it was exhausting to have a kid.
Not long after, the other members of the Hill family came to have breakfast too.
Queenie saw a pretty velvet box placed beside Shaun. She could not resist opening it to have a look.
She exclaimed, â
Isnât this The Queensâs Necklace?â
Shaun raised his head and looked at her while frowning. âWhatâs The Queenâs Necklace?â
â Big Brother, are you planning to give this to Sarah?â Queenie asked with a sour tone.
âI heard that The Queenâs Necklace took a full two years to design, and it was Country Fâs king who commissioned a top designer to design it in the past.
Rumor has it that as long as a man gives The Queenâs Necklace to his beloved, they can be together forever. Ladies in wealthy families like us are all coveting this necklace.â
Shaun went tight-lipped. âIf you like it so much, why didnât you buy it yourself in the past?â
âPlease, which woman would buy it for themselves? It has to be the man who buys it for the woman.â
Queenie pouted. â
I heard people say that this necklace was auctioned off at a sky-high price of three billion dollars during an auction in Melbourne a few years ago.â
Three billion dollars?
Shaunâs heart wavered. If this was a few years ago, Catherine surely did not have a few billion dollars to buy such a necklace. Had he been the one who purchased it and gave it to Catherine?
Why would he do such a thing in the past? However, he could not remember it at all.
After breakfast, Shaun got in the sedan. A s the car left Sherman Mountain, he instructed the driver, âGo to Hudson Corporation.â
9:30 a.m.
After sending Lucas to kindergarten, Catherine arrived at the company. Just as she was about to go upstairs from the parking lot, she saw a black sedan parked right in front of the entrance to the elevator.
Shaunâs long figure was leaning on the sedan. The outline of his body was elegant and smooth from head to toe.
