Chapter 1496

Hill Manor.

At 8:oo a.m., Catherine prepared breakfast. Lucas was dressed handsomely in his uniform and sat
down to eat his noodles obediently, but Suzie did not behave herself. She did not like to eat breakfast
and only wanted to eat doughnuts.

“Suzie, you can’t eat sweets in the morning.” Shaun coaxed his daughter and fed her spoonful by
spoonful.

That scene made Catherine feel quite happy. In the past, she was the one who had to do this kind of
thing, but she finally did not need to do it anymore.

“ Scummy dad, I don’t wanna eat noodles. ” Suzie puffed up her little cheeks.

Lucas snorted bluntly. “If you eat snacks every day, you’ll become fat. I won’t admit to you being my
little sister in preschool then.”

“Mommy, he’s picking on me again.” Suzie began to complain.

Catherine rubbed her forehead.

The phone that Shaun left on the table suddenly rang. It was from Hadley.

He answered the call, and after a moment, his handsome face darkened. “I’ll come to the company
right away.”

Catherine looked up at him. “Didn’t you say you wanted to send them to preschool together? You’re
leaving now?”



“Something came up at the company.” Shaun reached out to rub her hair. “I have to go now.”

Catherine looked at his solemn expression and nodded.

After breakfast, she drove the two children to the preschool at the foot of the mountain.

When the two children went in, she drove to the company.

Along the way, she suddenly received a call from Freya. “Patrick was released.”



“Huh?” Catherine was taken aback. “Did the Snow family let him go so soon? Didn’t they say he would
be locked up for decades?”

“Yeah, that’s what I thought at first, ” Freya said in a low voice, “ I asked my godmother about it. The
Snow family has never intended to release Patrick. He was supposed to be locked up for at least ten

years, but he was suddenly released. Godmother said it was an order from the executive council…”

“Is Patrick great enough to be saved by the people in the executive council?” Catherine was baffled.

“I also find it strange. If the Jackson family were that capable, his parents wouldn’t have needed to beg
my parents.” Freya was also confused. “But it’s true. Patrick is fine now.”

The more Catherine listened, the more she felt that it was strange.

“By the way, do you know that something happened to Hill Corporation?” Freya suddenly asked.

“What happened?” Catherine was at a loss.



“Didn’t Shaun tell you?” Freya was surprised. “Hill Corporation has been included in an investigation
blacklist. Currently, all the relevant departments have set up investigation teams to charge into Hill
Corporation for investigation.”

Catherine suddenly remembered how Shaun had left in a hurry this morning and got a bad feeling. “
Why is Hill Corporation suddenly being blacklisted for no reason? By the way, isn’t Shaun close to the
Snow family?”

Freya opened her mouth, and after a moment, she said with difficulty, “I heard my godfather say that
Hill Corporation might be facing an unprecedented crisis this time. It’s not the same as what happened
last time. Shaun might lose everything.”

“You’re joking, right?” Catherine could not believe it. “Hill Corporation just made a comeback and it’s
time for them to rise…”
