Chapter 269
Clara, Jennifer's mother, originated from the Morans. They were one of the four most influential families
in Kyoland.
She was not a simple lady. Back then, she already had the Morans' secret notebook.
When she passed away, the important notebook was then passed on to Jennifer for safekeeping.
The Morans had always wanted to get the notebook back ever since they knew it was in Jennifer's
hands.
As such, they had been bothering Jennifer for the past few years.
Even when Jennifer was abroad, they went to tremendous measures to find out where she was so that
they could steal the notebook.
However, Katherine's protective measures were so carefully done that the Morans were unable to find
any gaps. With that, they could only keep the matter in abeyance for the moment.
Now that they knew Jennifer had returned to the country, they were planning to make a move again.
Although Jennifer was in Hovington rather than Kyoland, the Morans had already made several sneaky
movements there.
Jennifer would be walking right into their trap if she returned to Kyoland now!
That being the case, Donald naturally had to stop her from doing so.
"Jenny, the Morans have been eyeing you as if you are their prey. Even though you are now well
protected by Miss Cornell and they can't do anything to you, your every move is being watched.
Kyoland is their territory. It would be extremely easy for them to lay their hands on you if you leave
Hovington right now and go there."
Jennifer's face revealed her frustration. After a lengthy pause, she muttered, "I am well aware of that,
but I have my reasons to go back."
She raised her gaze to look at Donald and continued with a solemn expression, "Kathy has gone to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKyoland. The Frasers are in trouble because of the man-faced curse. Since Kathy can save and heal
them, she can't just sit back and do nothing. Hence, I've already asked her to go. However, I am
worried. The matter of the Frasers suffering from the man-faced curse surely has something to do with
my brother and his gang. I am concerned that something might happen to Kathy this time."
Donald did not expect such an incident to happen. He furrowed his brows after he heard Jennifer's
words. "Are you worried about…"
Jennifer nodded in response and sighed. "I'm afraid that if my brother and those on his side find out
about Kathy, they will do something to her. I can never rest in peace if Kathy dies in their hands. I have
to go to Kyoland now so that she can be safe from them!"
When it came to Katherine, Jennifer was unyielding.
Donald knew this too. Seeing her determined expression, he understood that he could not change her
mind no matter what he said or did. Hence, he agreed to her request.
An hour and a half later, Donald packed everything and went back to the hospital.
Jennifer had called Xavier earlier to take care of Noah, who was in the hospital. Before departing with
Donald, she had also told Xavier not to notify Katherine that she was leaving Hovington.
…
Just as they had anticipated, they were noticed by the Morans when they reached Kyoland, even
before they had found a place to stay.
Donald furrowed his brows as he looked through the rearview mirror at the car that was tailing them.
"Hold on tight, Jenny. I have to get rid of these irritating flies."
Jennifer hastily buckled up her seatbelt and gripped the armrest by the door as she nodded. Her body
leaned backward when the car accelerated as it cut nimbly and erratically through the traffic like an
arrow sent flying from a bow.
Fifteen minutes later, Donald finally got rid of the car following them. He steered the vehicle into a
shadowy alley and came to a stop.
At the same time, Jennifer opened her bag and took out a full set of cosmetics. She then began to work
on her face.
Fifteen minutes passed before she set the mirror down. Her looks appeared dramatically different with
makeup on. It was as if she were a completely different person.
Jennifer then took her time to pack her belongings before she pulled out a coat that was entirely out of
character for her from her luggage.
When everything was done, she cleared her throat and said, "I'm done. Let's get out of the car." Even
her voice had changed drastically.
Donald immediately did as he was told. After locking the car, he looked back at Jennifer and couldn't
help but give her a thumbs up.
"Your disguise techniques are foolproof, Jenny! No one would have realized that you are wearing a
disguise or that you are the Jennifer Moran that they know!"
At her age, Jennifer naturally enjoyed hearing flattering remarks. As such, when she heard Donald's
compliments, she narrowed her eyes proudly and exclaimed, "Since the Morans want to hunt me down,
let them do whatever they want. With their meager capabilities, they will never be able to locate a
person who has disappeared even if they turn Kyoland upside down!"
She spoke in a way that would have seemed overconfident to someone else.
However, Jennifer was indeed capable enough to be overconfident. Her skills at disguising herself were
unrivaled. Once she put on her disguise, no one would realize who she was, just as it was practically
futile to find a needle in a haystack.
Both of them then left the car, made their way out from the other side of the alley, and blended into the
crowd.
…
Meanwhile, Joaquin and Katherine had arrived at the Fraser Residence.
Katherine stepped out of the car and stood at the Fraser Residence's front entrance. Looking at the
magnificent manor, she lifted her eyebrows slightly and commented, "The Fraser Family seems to be
doing well all these years."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMarcus nodded in agreement as he stood next to her. "You are correct. The Fraser Family is a well-
known family in Kyoland, and each generation has made a substantial contribution to the nation. Mr.
Fraser has contributed a lot too, so it makes sense that they are being treated nicely."
Although Katherine knew he was right, she refrained from responding. She quickly exchanged a glance
with Joaquin before entering the manor.
Marcus trailed behind. They then reached a red wooden door, after which he rang the doorbell.
Within seconds, the door was opened. A woman in her early forties appeared, looking panicked. She
exhaled a sigh of relief when she spotted Marcus, but she wrinkled her brows as she shifted her gaze
and noticed Katherine and Joaquin.
Instead of letting them in, she stood by the door and asked, "Mr. Town, who are—"
Seeing that, Katherine frowned, seemingly annoyed by the woman's attitude.
"They are the ones whom I invited from Hovington. Let us in now!"
Only after the woman heard Marcus' words that she opened the door and moved to the side.
Katherine merely threw a passing glance at the woman and entered with an indifferent expression.
As soon as she got to the living room, she smelled a strong vinegar smell which made her uneasy and
caused her to furrow her brows.
Joaquin also raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose as he scanned the living area with a deep
frown.
"What happened? Why is there such a strong vinegar smell?"
The woman who had opened the door earlier moved forward and gave a tepid response. "Madam,
Miss Fraser, and Mr. Fraser all looked sickly. I had no idea what to do, so I splashed vinegar all over
the house. Vinegar kills germs, no?"
Hearing that, Katherine simply gave her a sidelong glance while remaining silent.
However, such a glance of hers made the woman displeased and she immediately hissed impolitely.
"Mr. Town, I know you've put a lot of effort into helping the Frasers and it has been really hard on you,
but why did you bring in these two rookies?"
