Chapter 369
Artificial Insemination Zion was speechless. However, all he could taste was the sweetness of the
peach. Desi giggled. “Isn’t it sweet?” Zion nodded. “Don’t forget to eat all of it,” Desi urged. “I’ll be off.”
After speaking, she turned away. Zion sighed. Since it was already in his mouth, all he could do was
swallow it anyway. Meanwhile, Kathleen busied herself at the mall. She pursed her lips, unsure of what
a thirteen-year-old boy would like. As such, she could only buy a random assortment of things. After
shopping, she came out of the mall with bags in tow. A man wearing sunglasses walked up to her.
“Are you Gizem?” Kathleen arched a finely plucked brow. “In the flesh.” “The lady of the house would
like a word,” the man said coldly. Lady? “And who might that be?” asked Kathleen, her tone equally icy.
“You’ll know when you see her.” The man frowned. Kathleen sneered. “You know what? Nobody has
dared to speak to me like this. I’m afraid you know nothing about my temper.” The man was upset,
hearing this. “I can also tell you that no one has dared to—” The man howled as Kathleen punched him
in the face. Soon, the corners of the man’s mouth were tinged with scarlet. “Don’t even get me started
on your tone!” hissed Kathleen. “You want me to meet her, but this is how you treat me? Who is she,
the Queen?
You can go back and tell her that I am God!” Everyone had stopped to look at them. Because Kathleen
had sunglasses on, nobody recognized her. The man merely stood there, seething. Kathleen said
indifferently, “P*ss off!” The man was furious, but there were many people watching. All he could do
was leave. Kathleen carried all her purchases to the car park. She was about to open the car door

A graceful-looking middle-aged woman stood there, her red lips curved into a smirk. “Ms. Johnson,
allow me to apologize for my subordinate’s uncouth behavior.” Her subordinate? So this was the
woman the man mentioned earlier? Why would such a person show up now? “Who are you?” Kathleen
frowned.
With a hand outstretched, the woman introduced herself. “My name is Dorothy Cartwright.” Her nails
were painted a gorgeous shade of red. Kathleen glanced at her warily. “Did you need something?”
“Can you hand over the child in your care?” Dorothy asked with a wry smile. “Zion?” Kathleen frowned.
“Why?” “Ms. Johnson, that child is bad news. Letting him stay with you will not help you,” Dorothy
explained with a smile. “Also, you can’t nullify the poison that courses through his veins.” Kathleen
sneered. “Are you looking down on me?” Dorothy raised her hands in mock defeat. She then took out a
business card and gave it to Kathleen. “All I’m suggesting is that you don’t waste your time. My
number’s on the card. I’ll give you three days—” Kathleen immediately ripped the card. ”I’m really sick
of you people pretending to be high and mighty.
If you have anything worth saying, spit it out.” Dorothy’s expression changed slightly. Kathleen looked
at her coldly and raised her chin. “If you can’t learn to speak, don’t bother me.” Dorothy hissed at her. “I
can tell you this. Zion is my son!” What? Kathleen was a little shocked. “If you don’t believe me, I can
do a maternity test.” Dorothy looked at Kathleen with a frigid expression. “Now, can you hand him
over?” Kathleen scoffed, “Since you are his mother, then how did he end up in the hands of someone
else?” “It’s none of your business.” Dorothy’s expression took a grim turn. “Kathleen, I’m warning you. If
you don’t listen to what I say, then I will make your life a living hell.” “I’d like to see you try,” retorted
Kathleen scornfully. She opened the door and got in the car. Dorothy gritted her teeth. “Kathleen, don’t
think that you can let your guard down just because you have Samuel to help you!” Kathleen lowered
the car window, smirking wickedly at her.
“Let me also warn you. I’m not the Kathleen I used to be.” After speaking, she drove away. Dorothy was
left standing there, her face contorted with fury. Kathleen returned home when she spotted Samuel’s
car in the driveway. Looks like he showed up after all. Kathleen walked into her home. She noticed that
Samuel was spending time with both Desi and Eil. She walked over to greet him. “Oh, you’re here.”
Samuel’s handsome face was expressionless as he hummed in response. He then told Eil, “Why don’t
you bring your sister upstairs?” Eil nodded and took Desi by the hand. Samuel’s eyes were deep. “Is
that boy Zion?” Kathleen was stunned. “You knew?” “I’ve told you this before. Nobody is more well-
informed than I am in Jadeborough,” said Samuel in a hushed tone. “But what is he doing here?” “I cut
a deal with Theodore,” Kathleen replied. Samuel narrowed his eyes. “Aren’t you concerned that this is
a plot of his?”
No.” Kathleen was very determined. “This can’t be a plot. When I took Zion’s pulse, I saw that he truly
was dying. He can’t be saved with Desi’s blood anymore. I don’t think they would be that stupid and
make a gamble like this.” Samuel said nothing. “Since you are so well-informed, can I ask you
something? Who is Dorothy Cartwright?” Kathleen was curious. Samuel’s voice was a measured calm.

teased. “She was with one of Trevor’s older sons. I also heard that she was obsessed with coveting the
position of the matriarch. Zion is indeed her son.” “How obsessed are we talking about?” Kathleen was
very interested. “Zion is a test-tube baby,” Samuel said coldly. “Do you understand?” Kathleen was
surprised. “How did she do it?” “She kidnapped Zayne and found a doctor,” Samuel explained. “If she
has already kidnapped him, why did she need a doctor?” Kathleen didn’t understand. “Because there is
no guarantee that she could have conceived immediately,” replied Samuel. “And what happened after
that?” Kathleen asked again. She really didn’t expect Samuel to know so much and in such vivid detail.
Samuel’s thin lips were pursed. He knew that this was one of the times where her gaze would be
devoid of all warmth. “I’m hungry,” interjected Samuel. Kathleen snorted. “Wait, there is food in the
kitchen.” She went to get Samuel something to eat. Samuel swallowed audibly. He knew he was
shameless, always using this trick against her. However, there was nothing he could do.
Since she wanted to go so badly, he could just continue doing it until the time came. It was likely that
he would have had no chance to do so in the future. Kathleen warmed up the food and served it to him.
She sat beside Samuel and watched him eat. Samuel’s mannerisms were as delicate as Eil’s. Kathleen
looked at him deeply. Samuel stopped chewing after a while. “A heavily pregnant Dorothy went to
Zayne and demanded that he take responsibility. However, Zayne was in no position to do so.” “Why?”
Kathleen blinked her charming eyes. “Because Zayne’s wife did not agree,” Samuel explained. “The
Hoover family does not tolerate illegitimate children regardless of who conceived them.”
