Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 982 I Will Kill Your Entire Family

Catherine placed Joseph in the side quarters of the Rogers residence's main house.

As soon as the door swung open, she saw the man sitting on the couch, looking haggard, as if he had aged a

decade in an instant.

This man had once cherished her, loved her, and treated her like the apple of his eye.

Later on, when Harvey became mentally challenged due to someone's schemes, he placed all his hopes on her.

He educated her, nurtured her, and groomed her to become the next head of the family.

Back then, although she didn't harbor a strong desire for power, she remained profoundly grateful to him, for she

thought that this was her father's profound expression of love for her.

Over the years, she diligently cultivated her own strength, fortifying the legitimate line's position within the family.

Quietly and resolutely, she had also navigated the elimination of numerous adversaries, all for the sake of her

father and younger brother.

What took her by surprise, however, was the stark realization that she had been nothing but a pawn in her father's

intricate game right from the outset, serving as a shield to safeguard her younger brother from impending disaster.

The loving facade of her father from the past had, in reality, been nothing more than a deceptive veil that she had

used to obscure the truth, both for herself and those around her.

Joseph's attention was drawn to the commotion at the door, prompting him to slowly lift his head. As his gaze

scanned over Catherine, he couldn't help but put on a mocking, icy smile.

“Are you here to end me?” he asked.

Catherine abruptly stopped in her tracks as she slowly withdrew her right leg, which had been poised to take

another step.

He abandoned any pretense without a second thought now that everything was exposed.

The way he was looking at her at that moment resembled the way one might stare at a sworn enemy.

Certainly, he had every reason to resent and blame her. If she hadn't brought the Luther brothers into the picture,

he might've won the face-off with Broderick.

Even if he faced defeat, the Rogers family would still remain within the hands of their own kin, rather than

succumbing to domination and absorption by the Luther family. In the grand scheme of things, the two brothers

ended up being seen as the sinners responsible for what happened to the Rogers family.

“I never aspired to be the head of the family, nor did I ever consider betraying the Rogers family. It was your

distrust and murderous intent toward me that provoked Simon. Initially, I had planned to ask Bailey to treat Harvey.

After his recovery, I intended to hand over the family affairs to him. Luna and I would then step away from the

center of power in the Rogers family. But why burn bridges? Why treat me like a disposable sacrificial lamb?”

Catherine said.

Joseph's body quivered involuntarily, a fleeting twinge of pain flickering in his eyes, accompanied by a subtle

undercurrent of regret.

He didn't quite believe her when she said she wasn't interested in assuming the family's leadership and revealed

her intentions to involve Bailey in Harvey's treatment.

Yet, one undeniable truth remained. Had he not pushed her to the brink, the Luther brothers would never have

interfered in the Rogers family's matters, and the Rogers family would not have fallen apart as it did.

At this juncture, no matter how fervently he leveled accusations, it was impossible to reverse the course of their

defeat.

Instead of this futile approach, it might be wiser to regain Catherine's trust, leveraging the bonds of family affection

and potentially compelling her to relinquish control of the power currently held by the Luther family.

If she were to appeal to the Luther brothers, there was a good chance that the Luthers might show them some

mercy.

This confrontation primarily inflicted damage upon the main branch of the family, while the branches scattered

around the world remained relatively unscathed.

Therefore, as long as the Luthers didn't actively undermine the Rogers family and allowed them to recover, he held

the belief that within a decade, the Rogers family could reclaim their vitality.

“Cath, I realize my mistake now. I was foolish and acted recklessly. I'm genuinely sorry. Can you find it in your heart

to forgive me just this once, please? The Rogers family's legacy spans thousands of years, and I can't allow it to

crumble under my watch. I made a grave mistake even to consider handing over the family to that fool. Harvey's

condition is beyond cure now. Can you assist me in rebuilding our family? I promise to fully support you as the

rightful leader this time. Is that okay with you? You are the legitimate daughter of the Rogers family, and you're

partly responsible for our family's destiny. Considering that the Rogers family has nurtured you into adulthood,

could you help me this time?” Joseph earnestly implored.

Catherine chuckled softly, her laughter carrying a touch of melancholy that inexplicably evoked a sense of sadness

in those who heard it.

Even at this point, he was still squandering the familial bond that once united them.

She said, “Even without Harvey, you would never have considered passing the family's leadership to me. I'm aware

that you've already identified a promising heir from the side branch and have been grooming him for the top

position. So, Mr. Joseph, please stop pretending to be the loving father and dutiful son; it's quite hypocritical. In your

heart, I've never been a contender for the inheritance. Material possessions don't hold much value for me either.

However, being deceived to such an extent by my own family is something I can't help but resent. You needn't

waste any more words. I'll have the Luther family curtail the remaining influence of the Rogers family. As for this

family manor, I'll retain it for now. The rest of you can spend the remainder of your lives here.”

Upon finishing her words, she pivoted and made her way toward the exit.

A chilling, murderous intent gleamed in Joseph's eyes as he witnessed her unyielding demeanor.

He nonchalantly seized a fruit knife from the table and lunged menacingly toward Catherine.

Since that Luther kid cares so much about this brat, I'll kidnap her and use her to threaten him. With her in my

hands, I'm sure he'll obey me!

He intended not only to demand the Luther brothers stop their assaults on the Rogers family but also to make sure

that the Luther family shouldered all the losses incurred by the Rogers family in this ordeal. With the help of the

Luther family, he was convinced the Rogers family could make a full recovery in less than a month.

As Catherine felt the palpable surge of murderous intent closing in behind her, a bitter smile subconsciously played

at the corner of her lips.

She had stopped Simon from further suppressing the Rogers family. Instead, her remaining forces were diligently

engaged in restructuring Rogers Group, believing that Harvey's return after his eventual recovery would serve as a

catalyst for the gradual restoration of the Rogers family to its former glory.

After all, this was her home, where her roots were deeply anchored.

Yet, she had never expected that her beloved father, whom she had held in high esteem for so many years, would

still want to kill her at this point.

The last shred of affection and attachment she had for her family was completely extinguished.

The pain she expected never materialized. Instead, a dull thud echoed as a heavy object fell from behind.

Almost instinctively, she wanted to turn around but abruptly found herself enveloped in a reassuring embrace.

Simon, panting heavily and trembling uncontrollably, tightened his arm around her waist.

“Catherine, what's going on with you? How could you just stand there and let him stab you?” he asked.

While the man's exasperated voice resounded from above her, she had a playful impulse to retort, “Well, I don't

have eyes in the back of my head, so I can't see what's happening behind me.”

However, when she met his slightly reddened eyes, she opted not to say it.

Just a moment ago, she had indeed experienced a feeling of despair, contemplating that since this life had been

bestowed upon her by her parents, if they desired it back, perhaps she should willingly return it to them.

Now, as she locked eyes with his horrified gaze, a profound wave of regret surged within her heart.

Catherine, are you out of your mind? Luna is still waiting for you to rescue her, and this jerk is still waiting to marry

you. How can you sacrifice your life for these cold-hearted relatives?

Simon's anxiety escalated when she remained silent, prompting him to issue a menacing threat, “If you dare to

disregard the value of your life again, I'll obliterate your entire family.”

It was such a terrifying and violent threat, yet she inexplicably felt a warmth and delight wash over her.

“I knew you would save me, so I didn't have to lift a finger,” she chirped light-heartedly.

In an instant, all of Simon's anger dissipated when he saw her mischievous and playful demeanor.

He realized that the girl he loved was stunningly beautiful when her facade was peeled away. Her usual aloofness

had vanished, replaced by a vivaciousness tinged with a hint of coquettish charm.

As he was lost in thought, a wave of emotion washed over him. Acting on a sudden impulse, he scooped her into his

arms and headed decisively toward her mansion.

“Cath, I want you.”
