Chapter 54
Soon enough, Katherine had arrived at the hospital. Lisa was still having her internal crisis
as her face turned pallid while sitting on the hospital bed. Jorge also stood beside her and
wore an unpleasant expression. Clearly, the atmosphere in the ward was tense as though
the two had just had a quarrel.
Katherine took a moment to pause at the door before entering the ward with a defeated
and resentful expression on her face.
"Dad, Madam Sutton."
"How dare you come, Katherine? Tell your father how you injured me!" Lisa was so
emotional when she spotted Katherine that she leaped up and cursed at her.
When Katherine saw Lisa, she recoiled in terror. Her eyes immediately became crimson
and she stared at Lisa hopelessly before defending herself in a quiet voice. "What are you
talking about, Madam Sutton? I-I don't understand."
"Stop with your acting! You're the one that came home today and threatened to break my
hand today, and take my life next time! Do you have the audacity to claim that you never
came to my house hours ago?" Lisa looked at Katherine, who was full of pretense, and she
felt frustrated.
However, this was precisely the tactic that Lisa used to defame Elsie back then. Now,
Katherine was getting her sweet revenge.
"Dad, I honestly have no idea what Madam Sutton is talking about. I did return home
today, but it was her who called me up to do so. When I arrived, she scolded me, saying
that I'm a cheap lowlife. She reprimands me for not agreeing to put in some good words
for Rosemary to marry Robert. As a result, I left the house." Katherine gave Jorge a teary-
eyed face and tears could not stop streaming down her face.
At that moment, Jorge immediately believed what she had just said because he recalled
Lisa using the same words against Katherine when they were alone.
He was unhappy as he watched Lisa maintain her aggressive demeanor. His displeasure
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwas evident in his chilly expression and somewhat icy voice. "Stop it, Lisa! Stop playing
around! As I've already stated, Kathy has nothing to do with this situation."
"Why don't you believe me, Jorge?" Lisa looked at him in disbelief.
Hearing this, Jorge closed his eyes in exhaustion and there was no longer warmth in his
eyes when he opened them. "Joaquin and Katherine's wedding will be taking place in a few
days. Why are you stirring up trouble now? Do you enjoy enraging everyone?"
Suddenly, Lisa's visage turned pale and she came to a realization as she looked at Jorge,
whom she had loved her entire life.
He doesn't care about anything but profits and power.
He will mercilessly remove everyone who gets in his way.
He did the same to Elsie, and I might just be the next victim…
Lisa's body trembled and there was a look of despondence on her face.
Watching as her plan unfolded, Katherine smirked secretly as she looked at Lisa's
despaired face. Katherine remained a pitiful expression as she tugged on Jorge's sleeve.
"Dad, it does seem like Madam Sutton dislikes me. Well, I can also understand. Perhaps I
should stay out of the Cornells way on the day of my wedding? I don't want Madam Sutton
to be unhappy and fight with you."
Jorge became even more upset upon observing Katherine's calm and filial demeanor. On
the other hand, his expression grew increasingly agitated as he looked at Lisa. "Kathy,
ignore her. As long as I am around, I will always look out for you. Don't worry. You should
just go on with the wedding as you please."
"But—"
"No more buts. I'm making the final decision." Jorge abruptly cut off Katherine's sentence.
As such, poor Katherine had no choice but to agree with her father, just as she planned.
In addition to having a pallid face and a burning heart, Lisa was furious and thought the
father and daughter's behavior was absurd.
You shameless man! All this just for the cooperation with the Levisays?
"If it's okay with you, Dad, I'll head back first. Joaquin is waiting for me," Katherine spoke
timidly and dipped her head.
The more Jorge engaged with her, the more pleased he was.
Even if Joaquin had a deformed face and an amputated leg, he would still be the eldest
young master in the Levisay Family. Since Katherine and Joaquin got along well, it
indicated that the Levisay Group and Cornell Group would likewise form a great
relationship as well.
Now that he was delighted with Katherine, he even forgot how she had originally
blackmailed him.
Following Katherine's departure, Lisa snorted icily. "What a loving pair of father and
daughter. Remember, Jorge, she's not even your biological daughter. One day when she
finds out—"
"Shut up, Lisa! I'll kill you if you dare to say anything else!"
Only Jorge knew how much of a burdening secret this was to harbor within him. At this
point, he felt completely powerless as Lisa stripped him of his dignity. He gave Lisa a
death stare as if he was about to kill her.
In response, Lisa's countenance instantly changed as she pursed her lips in fear to speak
another word.
Staring at her, Jorge gasped violently and exclaimed, "Katherine is my daughter, and even
if she dies, she is still the daughter of the Cornells! You must not bring up this subject in
the future! Never!"
After he finished his statement, he turned around and stormed out of the ward without
giving Lisa another glance.
With resentment, Lisa stared at his back as she clenched her fist tightly.
Meanwhile, Katherine took a cab straight to the Levisay Residence after leaving the
hospital now that she did not want to return to Soulin International.
Rosemary, on the other hand, coexisted peacefully with the Levisays and treated their
residence as her own. She was completely ignorant about Lisa's accident and her
subsequent hospitalization. Instead, she was seated there enjoying coffee and a snack
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwhen Katherine entered the room.
"I see that you're enjoying yourself, Rose." Katherine slowly approached Rosemary before
drawing out a chair and took a seat next to her.
When Rosemary saw Katherine, she was extremely repulsed. She flung the small spoon
she was holding onto the table and impatiently questioned, "Katherine, what are you
doing here?"
"Ha!" Katherine could not help but chuckle. "The fools would assume that this is the
Cornell Residence and you are the head of the family. Rose, come back to your senses!
This is the Levisay Residence and you are only the sister of the future Mrs. Levisay! I am
Mrs. Levisay and the future head of this family. Do you understand?"
After being rudely admonished by Katherine, Rosemary's face was unappealing, but she
held her chest out and muttered, "The future head of the family? Are you worthy of
holding such a position? I'll soon be Robert's wife and I'll run the Levisays instead!. What
do you have to be proud of when you are only married to a useless man?"
"Tsk… I expected you to at least keep up the facade," Katherine snickered as she admired
Rosemary's arrogance and lack of self-consciousness.
In truth, Robert had not even returned home for a while and he was unaware of
Rosemary's existence, but she dared to have the audacity to act like she was already an
official family member.
"Katherine, I'm warning you right now. Don't try to test my patience or I'll do things you
cannot even imagine! I will definitely marry Robert! If you dare to ruin my plans, I will
make you regret it! Hmph!"
Rosemary and Katherine had been at odds for a while and she did not bother to put on
any sisterhood play.
Narrowing her eyes, Katherine cast a cold glance at this brat.
At this moment, she approached Katherine and spoke in an arrogant and provocative tone.
"Haven't you been hunting down the jade pendant your mother wore as she fought for her
life? The fact that I am holding that object is a coincidence."
As soon as Rosemary's words fell, Katherine's expression instantly changed as she shot
her an increasingly chilly and scary glare.
