Chapter 472 The Big Boss


    Audrey’s leaving made the Swanns’ living room much quieter.


    Facing Catherine, Rachael was even more rude. In her eyes, Catherine was nothing but aplete


    troublemaker.


    “You jinx, why don’t you just leave? What on earth do you want?”


    Hearing the noise, Catherine slowly sat up, her sharp gaze shooting straight at Rachael’s face.


    “I will leave, but make sure you pay your price!”


    Upon hearing this, Rachael looked at her suspiciously and felt that something was off. Catherine’s


    expression gave her a very bad premonition.


    “What nonsense are you talking about? Is there any unfinished business between us? Just get lost


    now!”


    “Hmph…” Catherine let out a cold, contemptuousugh with a chillingly indifferent expression.


    “Kidnapping, drugging, violent threats…” She suddenly looked up and stared directly at Korbin with a


    cold and terrifyingly sharp gaze, exuding an overwhelming sense of power.


    When Korbin was nced at by her, his heart involuntarily skipped a beat, leaving him momentarily


    breathless with astonishment.


    He didn’t expect a young girl like her to have such a sharp gaze.


    At that moment, Korbin realized something btedly.


    Perhaps the daughter before him was not as unbearable and mediocre as he had imagined.


    But it was toote now.


    After calming down, Korbin still maintained a proud attitude toward Catherine.


    At that point, there wasn’t really anything he couldn’t admit.


    “Catherine, don’t me me for being tough on you. You were born lucky to be my daughter. If you


    don’t act recklessly, disobey me, and foolishly try to take everything from me, I can still give you a


    wealthy life!”


    Korbin was very confident and believed that no one would refuse to be a daughter of the Swanns.

    Only with great luck could one be a child of the Swanns.


    As she heard the speech of the unrepentant and shameless Korbin, Catherine’s eyes filled with an


    even deeper hint of amusement.


    “Even on the verge of disaster, this old geezer still refuses to repent.


    “Why did my grandfather have such an evil child?” thought Catherine. Rachael joined in on the


    argument against Catherine when she saw her husband angrily confronting Catherine.


    “That’s right, Catherine. You were born to bring trouble upon us. We didn’t kill you back then, and


    instead, we let you livefortably until now. You should be grateful to us.


    “You’re now turning on us. Catherine, you’re nothing but a total backstabber! “said Rachael.


    “Is fighting back equivalent to backstabbing?


    “I had indeed witnessed how distorted Rachael’s values were today.


    “No wonder Liana and Johnathan, who are close to her, have such personalities. With a mother like


    that, it’s a miracle they can be normal people!” said Catherine inwardly.


    Seeing Catherine look at them with a cold smile and remain silent, Rachael always felt that something


    was off, thinking that Catherine must have some ulterior motive.


    She made up her mind to unleash her final ace up her sleeve.


    She looked at Catherine with a proud expression. The smile at the corner of her mouth carried a hint of


    arrogance.


    “Catherine, do you think you’ve won?


    “Based on the bond that you have lived in my womb for ten months, I advise you to stop quickly. Spit


    out the shares of the Swanns. Otherwise, I’m afraid you will regret it and cry to me for help, but I won’t


    give you the chance!”


    “Oh… is that so?” Catherine raised an eyebrow and gave a meaningful look at Rachael. “Seems like


    you’re pretty confident that you can handle me.


    “Spill it. What kind of trick are you up to this time?


    “You failed in deceiving and lost money when transferring assets. Even kidnapping didn’t work. What


    else can you do?”


    Catherine’s arrogant demeanor truly infuriated Rachael. What she detested the most was Catherine’s


    arrogance, recklessness, and not treating her seriously.


    “Catherine, do you really think that you can live peacefully just because you have obtained those


    properties? The Swanns is such a prominent family. Do you really believe that a country bumpkin like


    you can control it?


    “I am not afraid to tell you. I already have hired some top-notch experts in the industry. If you don’t


    obediently hand over the Swann Corporation, they’ll team up and turn it upside down in a sh. Do you


    believe me or not?”


    Speaking of this, Rachael seemed quite pleased with herself.


    All this was thanks to her father, who had students all over the world. Because of Catherine’s matter,


    Rachael’s dad stepped in and personally reached out to some people for her.


    These people were all big shots in various industries, including the representatives of the Chritie region


    for the top five financial consortiums in Halleywick. As long as they took action, Catherine’s days would


    be tough.


    Catherine was looking at Rachael with a cold eye.


    “Does this woman really think I’m blind and unaware of all her secret actions?


    “Absolutely ridiculous!” she said inwardly. She opened her phone and projected the screen onto the


    white wall in front.


    Her chin pointed toward Rachael as a gesture.


    Rachael didn’t know what Catherine was up to again, but her eyes couldn’t help but look in the


    direction that Catherine was gesturing.


    The screen, with a fleeting pause, was finally connected, and then the face of a diligent and handsome


    middle-aged man appeared on it.


    The moment she saw who it was, Rachael couldn’t control the shock in her heart, and her eyes


    widened. She instinctively opened her mouth.


    “Isn’t this…”


    The guy on the screen was none other than the Chritie regional representative that Rachael met


    recently, who she thought was her ultimate ace in the hole.


    Various thoughts were rapidly swirling in her head, and then she came to a conclusion. She suddenly


    turned around and stared at Catherine with wide eyes.


    “Little brat! Are you poaching from me behind my back?”


    “Hmph!” Catherine snorted coldly without responding.


    Catherine’s attitude made Rachael so angry that she screamed at the screen.


    “Pete, you’ve got no professional ethics. After working with me first, how could you work with that brat?


    “How much did that girl benefit you?”


    Pete waspletely taken aback by Rachael’s aggressive attack. He indeed had previously met


    Rachael and agreed to work together.


    It was mainly because Rachael’s offer was just too damn attractive for anyone to resist. Pete furrowed


    his brows and stared at the screen. He appeared puzzled as he asked, “Mrs. Swann, what are you


    talking about? I don’t understand.”


    “You still don’t understand?” Rachael gritted her teeth angrily, tossing aside her image as a wealthy


    socialite.


    She pointed at Catherine and angrily shouted, “You’ve even teamed up with this girl, don’t you


    understand?”


    Pete was pale with fright when he saw Rachael treat Catherine with such a fierce attitude.


    “Mrs. Swann, why are you giving our group’s shareholders such a bad attitude? She is our highest-


    level investment advisor. If you want this deal to go smoothly, you better ask Miss Catherine for


    guidance!”


    As long as Catherine agreed to take on this project, fulfilling Rachael’s request would be a piece of


    cake.


    Rachael was perplexed.


    “What is this white-skinned Pete Hester saying?


    “Miss Catherine? Investment advisor?” she wondered.
