Chapter 520 Catherine’s Choice


    Rachael couldn’t get any money from Audrey, and Audrey’s phone was always busy. Rachael had to go


    to Liana to ask her to figure out a way to get the money.


    “Liana, don’t you still have the fund your grandpa left you? Take some out!” Rachael urged.


    Liana’s face immediately darkened after she heard this. She didn’t have much in her savings, and she


    needed that money for her future tuition and living expenses.


    How could she take it out when she couldn’t even cover her own needs?


    However, Rachael could casually buy a handbag worth the price of a whole house. Liana wondered


    why Rachael didn’t use that to help her father.


    Since Audrey didn’t want to pay the money, Liana decided to take some extreme measures.


    “Mom, Audrey wants to be a star, right? Since she’s not willing to pay, we can expose her for not


    supporting her parents and see how she fares in the industry!”


    Rachael looked at her daughter in astonishment. She never expected Liana to have such a thought.


    “Liana, you can’t do that!”


    “Why not?” Liana didn’t believe her mother would suddenly care about mother-daughter bonds at a


    time like this. Rachael had always said that Liana was the most like her.


    Liana admitted that, in some aspects, her way of handling things was indeed simr to Rachael’s.


    So she didn’t need Rachael to say it. She was confident that her mother wouldn’t sympathize with


    Audrey.


    A hint of embarrassment shed across Rachael’s face as she looked at Liana with a gloomy face.


    “Have you thought about the consequences of exposing this? This industry is very cutthroat. Don’t you


    understand?”


    Once this matter made headlines, everyone would know that Rachael, the former morous socialite,


    couldn’t even afford her husband’s medical bills.


    How much ridicule would she face?


    She’d rather die than live like that.


    Liana suddenly understood her mother’s meaning, and she didn’t want this either.


    But if she didn’t pay this money, and her mother didn’t either, what would happen to her father lying in


    the hospital bed?


    Rachael also noticed Liana’s thoughts and knew that Liana didn’t want to provide the money.


    Rachael sighed in resignation and said, “We don’t have to worry that much. I don’t believe that


    Catherine would let your dad get kicked out of the hospital.”


    It sounded like she was speaking to Liana, but it was more like consoling herself.


    After all, she had never gained anything from Catherine. Liana also thought it made sense. As far as


    she was concerned, her father remaining unconscious was the best oue.


    “Mom, you’re right. That jinx won’t let Dad die. We should just let it be.”


    The mother and daughter consoled each other, and in the end, neither of them had any intention of


    using their money to save Korbin.


    A week passed, and Catherine received a call from the hospital.


    “Miss Swann, your father’s medical bills remain unpaid. Should we continue the treatment?”


    Catherine chuckled. She had anticipated the response from Rachael and Liana.


    Rachael was capable of abandoning her child for personal gain, so her actions didn’t surprise


    Catherine.


    As for Liana, her personality mirrored Rachael’s. Both of them were willing to do anything for their


    benefit. In Catherine’s view, it was no surprise that Liana acted this way.


    Unfortunately, Korbin probably never imagined his beloved wife and daughter would treat him like this.


    “Continue,” Catherine ordered coldly before hanging up the phone.


    If Vicente were still alive, he wouldn’t want to see his son in this situation.


    After ending the call, Catherine dialed Thomas’s number.


    The doctors in Casier had run out of options, and if they wanted Korbin to wake up, they had to rely on


    Thomas.


    Thomas had been with Scott these days. When Catherine called, Scott was right by his side.


    Upon hearing Catherine on the line, Scott excitedly grabbed the phone.


    “Chief, it’s me!” Scott eximed.


    “I know.” Catherine had a low, attractive voice.


    Scott became even more excited upon hearing her words.


    He continued, “Chief, you’re amazing!


    “Chief, I heard you’re going to study at Styre University. Is that true?”


    Scott was particrly surprised to hear this news.


    With Catherine’s abilities, bing a professor at Styre University seemed like a waste. Scott didn’t


    expect Catherine would choose Styre University.


    He wondered who in Styre University could even teach Catherine.


    It would be a source of amusement.


    But when Scott ryed these thoughts to Thomas, Thomas exined the reason to him. Catherine


    achieved what most people couldn’t in a lifetime at such a young age. She was a genius. However,


    geniuses were destined to be lonely.


    To live a life more like an ordinary person, she had to experience the ordinary person’s journey.


    Catherine’s choice was the right one. She was merely experiencing a different way of life. After hearing


    his grandfather’s exnation, Scott seemed to understand it to some extent.


    Catherine was aware of Scott’s good rtionship with Ronin, and she suspected that he had learned


    about her ns to attend Styre University from Ronin.


    “Yes,” Catherine replied. She confirmed the fact that she was going to study at Styre University.


    Scott immediately became excited and said, “Chief, I want to go too.


    “Chief, I’m so happy to be able to see you more often!”


    Given Scott’s status in the country, getting into Styre University was not a difficult thing for him.


    Catherine noticed his excitement, but she didn’t say much in response.


    Thomas was worried that Scott might be bothering Catherine, so he quickly took the phone and hung


    up.


    At the Arbotte Laboratory, after Scott saw his grandfather finish the call, he looked a bit displeased.


    “Grandpa, why didn’t you let me talk to the chief for a bit longer?”


    Thomas knew that his grandson deeply admired Catherine and considered Catherine his idol. Scott


    held more respect for Catherine than he did for Thomas.

    “If you keep pestering her, she might find you annoying. She likes peace, and if you make too much


    noise, she won’t be pleased.”


    After Scott heard Thomas’s warning, he frowned with a gloomy face.


    “Grandpa, does that mean I can’t talk to the chief anymore? What if she gets tired of me?”


    Thomas had known Catherine for a long time and understood her personality better. So, what he said


    was quite possible.


    Scott didn’t know how to handle this.


    Seeing his grandson’s troubled expression, Thomas was worried. So, he changed his tone tofort


    Scott.


    “You don’t have to worry too much. As long as you don’t talk too much, for the sake of humoring me,


    Catherine won’t ignore you.”


    After Scott heard his grandfather’s words, his brow furrowed even more.


    This left Thomas somewhat puzzled. ” What’s with that expression, Scott?”


    Scott responded with a disdainful look, “Grandpa, you’d better not think about these unrealistic things in


    the future. It’s so disgusting!”


    After saying that, he turned and left.


    Thomas was outraged. He angrily shouted at Scott’s retreating figure.


    He cried out. “You ungrateful child of the Theos!”
