Chapter 1211

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South]

Shaun did not go after the driver because he wanted to protect the kids. Moreover, since the incident
took place in public with surveillance cameras around, the police should be able to capture the hit- and-
run driver soon.

Shortly after someone called the police, the police hurried over and took Shaun’s statement.

Meanwhile, Suzie was weeping over the phone with Catherine.

“Mommy. Mommy. Boo—hoo…”

The minute Catherine heard Suzie cry, she was shocked. “Darling, what’s wrong?”

“Mommy, something scary happened. Just now, a car sped toward Lucas and me, and we almost died.
Luckily, our scummy dad pulled us out of the car.” Suzie could not stop sobbing.

Her words sent a chill down Catherine’s spine. “ Where are you guys? I’ll be there right away. Pass the
phone to your dad.”

“Scummy dad is speaking to the police now. We’re a t the place where you bought me the cake earlier.”
As Suzie was speaking, she began to bawl, which made Catherine overwrought.

“Don’t be scared, darling. I’ll be there in a moment.”

Upon hanging up, Wesley tightened his grip on the steering wheel calmly. “Did something happen to the
kids? Where are they? Let’s get there now.”

“Mm.” Catherine’s mind was in a mess.



After she told Wesley the address, he sped to the scene. Nevertheless, the road had been blocked due t
o an accident. Since Wesley’s car could not enter the area, Catherine unfastened her seat belt. “I’ll just
walk there on my own.”

With that, she swiftly got out of the car and left before Wesley could reply.

Wesley punched the steering wheel. Soon, he dialed a number. “Dumb*ss, why did you fail again?”

“Shaun carried the kids out of the car after he came out of the bakery. ” The person replied, “He might
have seen the car speeding toward him.”

“Duh, dumb*ss, ” Wesley insulted. “Have you cleaned up the mess?”

“Don’t worry. There won’t be any problem.”

Even so, Wesley felt exasperated that he had wasted another chance and money. Shaun must have nine
lives, or else how could he be so fortunate?

After running for a while, Catherine caught sight of the appalling situation. The back of Shaun’s car
seemed completely wrecked.

“Mommy. ” Suzie and Lucas dashed to Catherine the instant they saw her.

“Mommy, we nearly couldn’t see you again.” Lucas said with a low voice, “Thankfully… We have our
scummy dad this time.”

It was very rare of Lucas to compliment Shaun, but Catherine was immensely grateful to Shaun as well.
If Shaun had not reacted quickly enough, she might not be able to see the kids anymore.

“Cathy… ” Shaun walked to her, his deep -set eyes filled with guilt. “I’m sorry that the kids encountered
such an awful situation…”



“What actually happened?” At the sight of this accident, Catherine could not help but recall Ethan’s
death.

Why was it an accident again?

The people around her had been frequently involved in accidents in less than a month. This made her
feel a little more alert and terrified.

Was this man-made or coincidental?

Were these accidents targeted at her or Shaun?

Shaun’s thin lips twitched. He thought it would be inappropriate to say it with the kids around. “Let’s leave
this place and send the kids home first. Later, I’ll still need to go to the police station.”

Catherine understood it, but she felt gloomier deep down.

As cars had been blocked from entering this area, Shaun carried Suzie and Lucas in each of his arms
before he walked forward.

Watching his tall figure, Catherine zoned out for a few seconds before she hurriedly caught up with him.

She had even forgotten that Wesley was waiting for her.

Only until she hopped into Hadley’s car did she remember to send Wesley a WhatsApp message, asking
him to return home first.

Along the way, she kept comforting the two kids.

After dropping them at the Hill family’s house, she headed to the police station with Shaun.



“Sorry, Cathy. This was a case of attempted murder.” Shaun handed Catherine his phone, which
displayed Chance’s reminder message. “I assigned Chance to the Campos family to spy on them. If it
weren’t for his reminder, Suzie and Lucas…”
