Chapter 152

Kate thought about what they had found earlier. "Something just doesn't add up with that mine," Kate pondered aloud to Russell.

"Well I mean it's an illegal mine, there will be a lot that doesn't add up."

"But it's not the mine that is bothering me, it's the cliff it was built into. I know I didn't work there very long, but I did ride most of that property fifteen years ago. I don't remember there being any cliffs like that on Kinsella's," said Kate.

"Maybe you just didn't go there because it's not a place cattle would go?" offered Russell.

"Maybe. Can you give me those coordinates again?" Kate asked. She wanted to research the area a bit more.

Ben had appreciated Dylan's text that they were heading home. When he got it, Jaz was in his arms and he was thinking about making love to her again. Instead, he sighed, got up and got dressed. Jaz did the same. They pulled out some of the leftovers from the picnic in case people were hungry.

"Am I a bad mother if I really enjoyed this child free day I got to spend with just you?" ased Jaz.

"Of course not. There is nothing wrong with us taking some time to focus only on each other and our relationship once in a while, Plus, it's good for Kelly to be with her Aunties and Uncle Dill," said Ben.

"Good, because I thoroughly enjoyed the bath we took this morning." Jaz smiled at her fiance.

"Oh you know I did." said Ben.

Regan pulled Ben's ute up to Wilgul. Kate and Russell were right behind them.

"Okay Kelly, time to see your mommy and daddy again!" Grace said as she took Kelly out of the car seat. "I had so much fun playing with you today, and I hope we can do it again soon!"

"I love you Auntie Grace!" said Kelly.

"Hey Guys! How was droning? Did Kate get the footage she needed? Do you think she'll become our neighbor?" Jaz asked as she came out to meet them.

"Well, we got something else instead, we have Jodi, Tess and Stevie on their way here momentarily, and we will talk all about it then." Grace responded. "Your daughter was an absolute delight today. Weren't you Kelly?" Grace handed Kelly over to her mother who gave her a big smile..

"Mr. Monkey got all dirty." Kelly showed her mom.

"And that's why Mr. Monkey is machine washable," Jaz said to Grace with a smile.

"Hey Jaz, can I get your wifi password? I need to check something." Kate said as she got out of the car.

"Yeah it's on the router in the office, you can go on in," Jaz replied.

"Thanks."
