If he dared to openly kill the prime minister and ascend to power, it would definitely arouse national discontent.
Gavin certainly did not have the guts to do that.
“Forget it, it’s useless to talk about this. Even if I wanted to escape, I can’t escape now. ” Cate shrugged and smiled bitterly.
Mireya grew anxious. Cate was in a much more dangerous situation than her.
However, she could not help at all.
After leaving Mireya’s villa, Cate went back to the Yules’ residence.
“Mommy, how’s Grandpa? When are you taking us to visit him?”
Suzie and Lucas ran over and immediately hugged her legs.
Cate squatted down and looked at her two precious children, a suffocating pain enveloping her heart.
She gave birth to them but was unable to protect them. She really felt useless.
“Mommy, what’s wrong?” Lucas tilted his head and looked at her. “Did Shaun bully you?”
“No.” Cate hugged them tightly, secretly vowing to protect the two children even at the cost of her life.
Just then, her phone suddenly rang. When she saw the name ¡®Eliza Robbins’ on the screen, her heart thumped.
Eliza rarely appeared on TV after she was injured by her father. Cate heard that she had gone back to her hometown to recover. Besides, she was not that familiar with Eliza, so why was she suddenly calling?
After hesitating, Cate still answered the call. ” Eliza, have you recovered?”
“Yes, I’m fine now. I came back to Canberra yesterday.” Eliza’s voice sounded gentle. If it were in the past, Cate would have invited her out to dinner, but with so many things happening recently, she was not in the mood at all. “Eliza, I’m sorry. I—“
“Do you need my help?” Eliza suddenly interrupted her. “The situation in the capital seems to have changed. I heard that Wesley is quite powerful now.”
Cate was dumbfounded for a moment, slightly shocked.
She had always thought that Eliza was just an ordinary actress. How did she…
“Thank you for your kindness, but you can’t help me.” She refused wryly. Even Chester was still figuring out what to do, so what could Eliza do?
“I have a friend who has wide connections. I can ask him to find someone to bring you and your family away from the border even if you don’t have a visa or passport, ” Eliza said in a low voice.
Cate was stunned and felt her breathing speed up due to her excitement. “Really?”
“Yeah,” Eliza said, “No matter what the situation is, it’s always good to avoid potential problems.”
“Eliza, how did you meet such a person? You even know so much. Who exactly are you?” Cate was filled with bewilderment. She was not that close to Eliza. They only had dinner together once.
After a moment of silence, Eliza said, “All you need to know is that I won’t harm you.”
“Okay, I believe you.”
Cate did not hesitate as she was not left with another choice.
“Alright. Gavin Mead’s birthday is in three days. That night, a car will come to pick you up.”
“Why does it have to be three days later?” Cate was a little anxious. According to Mireya, Gavin might carry out his grand plan on his birthday. It would be like trying to escape in the middle of a storm.
Eliza sighed softly. “Have you not noticed that Wesley has sent people to spy on you and your family?”
Cate’s expression changed. She had thought about it before, but even when she paid attention, she did not spot any suspicious people following her.
“He didn’t get people to tail you because he knows that you’re very vigilant. Instead, he got people to keep an eye on the Yule family and your children. I’m guessing he’s also afraid that you’ll take the children with you and go into hiding.”
Eliza said, “Three days later is Gavin’s birthday, and they’ll have their own plans then. Even if Eugene doesn’t deploy all of his men, they’ll still let down their guard somewhat. That’ll be your chance to leave.”
Cate was completely stunned. Just who was Eliza? How did she know so much?
“Okay, I’ll listen to you, but I want to leave with my two children and my father. He can’t move his legs now…”
“It doesn’t matter. The person will send you all the way out of the border. Don’t tell anyone about this matter.”
After the call ended, Cate still could not calm down after a long time.
For one, she was shocked at Eliza’s contacts. She was also excited that she could take her family and leave safely.
She looked at her two children. However, she could not tell them about this yet.
Especially Suzie, who was a blabbermouth.
When she went to the hospital, she said to Joel, ” Dad, don’t worry about the company for now. Even if you stay, with Wesley suppressing the company, you can’t turn the tide no matter how capable you are.”
“Sigh, I know.” Joel was disheartened.
He had put in a lot of blood, sweat, and tears to establish Joule Corporation.
“Dad, when you go abroad, you can start a new company again. Staying alive is the most important thing now. Do you want Wesley to threaten me with you and the children?” Cate hated to be threatened.
“Alright. I can’t help you, but I know that I can’t hold you back either. ” Joel nodded. “I’ll leave the hospital this afternoon.”
Cate nodded and helped him with the discharge procedures.
At night.
In the elegant and quiet restaurant, Shaun slowly and methodically cut the steak on his plate.
The gorgeous crystal lamp cast a pale light, outlining his handsome and dignified features.
He wore a white shirt, and his waistcoat was wrapped around his sturdy and upright figure. He looked handsome and domineering like he was the noblest of all.
Hannah sat across him with burning eyes.
She had seen too many men, within the country and also abroad. However, she had never seen a man who looked as good as Shaun when wearing a white shirt with a waistcoat.
She must have this man.
“Shaun…” Her fingers slowly inched toward his hand, and her charming voice was full of seduction. “Tonight… Do you want to go to my place for a cup of coffee?”
“Do you want coffee or do you want me to sleep with you?” Shaun elegantly placed a piece of steak into his mouth and chewed on it, his thin lips curling into a wicked smile.
He said it too bluntly, but instead of getting angry from embarrassment, Hannah smiled. She grew up in a foreign country, so her personality was bold and unrestrained. She was not a prude at all. ” I really want you to sleep with me, but I heard that you—“
“I’m cured.” Shaun swallowed the steak and confidently interrupted her.
“Really?” Hannah’s eyes lit up. Her leg immediately crawled up his calf restlessly. “Let me try.”
Shaun’s hands holding the knife and fork stiffened as an imperceptible trace of disgust flashed across his eyes.
He knew that Hannah was testing him. However, he had no reaction to her at all.
He tightened his grip on the knife and fork, closing his eyes. The image of Cate bathing him emerged in his mind, and his throat instantly burned.
“Wow…” Hannah laughed in surprise. “You’re really cured.”
“Can you take your foot away now?” Shaun stared at her tightly.
Hannah smiled smugly and got up, going around to sit down beside him. Her hands roamed up his chest. “You look like you’re in pain. Why don’t we… try it now? No one will dare to come in anyway.”
Shaun was revolted. This woman truly made him “No.” Shaun lowered his head and grabbed her hand, saying in a deep voice, “I don’t want to be casual when it comes to you.”
Hannah looked at his long eyelashes and her heart raced in infatuation. She really wanted to pounce on him, but since he said so, she could not act too casually either. It would make him think that she had no self-respect. “Then, what do you propose?”
“Of course… I want to meet your parents. ” Shaun’s gaze was dark. “Otherwise, I’ll think that you’re just toying with me.”
