Chapter 705 Give Me a Reason


    Erasmus was infuriated by Catherine’s domineering deration, almost triggering a heart attack.


    If it weren’t for the fact that those ipetent people among the Silvas of this generation needed him


    to oversee things, he wouldn’t have to endure it.


    He had just received calls from several business partners, all announcing the cancetion of their


    cooperation with the Silvas.


    Also, the influential figure within the Silvas, Erasmus’s brother-inw, the current leader of a particr


    district, had also called. He was now under investigation for corruption.


    In one night, the Silvas fell like a house of cards.


    Erasmus genuinely could not ignore Catherine’s bold words now because he wasn’t sure if Catherine’s


    warnings woulde true.


    He lifted his head and stared fixedly at Catherine with a slight tremor. ” Whether it’s the Duncans or the


    Swanns, the Silvas have never had any dealings with them, let alone conflicts. Why must you push us


    to our doom?”


    Catherine directed her gaze at Andrea, who was standing beside her.


    The intensity in her eyes was so powerful that Andrea involuntarily stepped back, not daring to make


    eye contact with Catherine.


    Sensing Andrea’s change in look, Erasmus questioned his granddaughter with a stern face. “What


    have you done?


    It was the first time Andrea had seen her grandfather so angry. She didn’t understand what Catherine


    had done to cause such a change in her grandfather. After receiving the phone call earlier, her


    grandfather’s momentum had weakened instantly.


    Catherine made bold threats, yet her grandfather suddenly showed weakness. This indicated that


    Catherine had caught hold of something, and Andrea’s heart skipped a beat.


    She believed her grandfather must have other ways to handle this. With a face full of grievances, she


    looked at Erasmus. “Grandpa, don’t listen to her nonsense. I’m not even friends with her. We met once


    just because of Triston. I’ve never offended her.”


    Trying to argue at this point was pointless. But since Andrea wanted to, Catherine might as well


    cooperate with her.


    Catherine tilted her chin and nced at her. “You’re not familiar with me, but what about Audrey?


    You’re not familiar with her either?”


    Andrea’s face immediately showed a disdainful expression when she heard Audrey’s name. “So, this is


    why you’re here. Grandpa, Audrey is just a celebrity that Triston is keeping outside. She tried to give


    me money to make me leave Triston.”


    Andrea keptining to Erasmus about Audrey, portraying Audrey as a home-wrecker in her eyes.


    Hearing her granddaughter’s words, Erasmus was naturally furious. He looked at Catherine with anger.


    “Did youe for this?”


    Catherine said, “Mr. Silva, the affairs of the heart aremon among people. I never interfere in


    Audrey’s love matters. Besides, the right and wrong of the situation haven’t been determined. Audrey


    and Triston were in a rtionship before, and the Silvas approached the Lamberts for marriage


    afterward. Now, Triston is entangled with Audrey.


    “He would rather sever ties with the Lamberts to avoid marrying Miss Silva. I don’t know what’s wrong


    with Miss Silva that Mr. Lambert doesn’t like. He would rather give up the ties of blood rtionship than


    marry her.”


    This statement made the faces of the Silvas particrly gloomy. Andrea, in particr, disyed


    embarrassment and anger and red at Catherine.


    Not long ago, Triston publicly announced his separation from the Lamberts. Others didn’t know the


    inside story, but the Silvas were well aware.


    Triston wanted to sever ties with the Lamberts because he didn’t like Andrea.


    Erasmus ordered everyone not to discuss this matter. Such embarrassing matters were only gossiped


    about within the Silvas. Naturally, they wouldn’t bring it out into the open.


    Now, Catherine had publicly exposed this shame, making it even more embarrassing.


    Erasmus was puzzled and looked at Catherine. “If it’s not a romantic dispute, why are you targeting the


    Silvas and demanding Andrea from us?”

    Catherine directed her gaze at Andrea and observed her unrepentant demeanor. Andrea still thought


    she could escape the consequences. What a joke.


    “Do you think you can get away with it just because Emma won’t expose you? Do you really believe


    that your actions are wless?” asked Catherine.


    Andrea’s eyes widened in astonishment when she heard this. She looked at Catherine in disbelief and


    muttered under her breath. “How is that even possible? I have…”


    “You’ve erased all the evidence and even used a new phone and a newwork to contact Emma, so


    howe I can still trace you, right?” Catherine retorted.


    As Andrea heard Catherine’s words, a sense of terror washed over her. It seemed to Andrea that


    Catherine could read minds. Whatever she wanted to say, Catherine seemed to already know.


    “No need to guess. With your intelligence, there’s no way you could figure it out.” Catherine’s words


    were full of mockery.


    Andrea hated Catherine the most for this. Unfortunately, she had no way to change it.


    Seeing Andrea acting foolishly, Catherine stopped circling around the issue and directly told her the


    truth. ” I’ve known Shane for many years. He’s got my people around him.”


    Andrea immediately woke up when she heard this. To thoroughly ruin Audrey, she had conspired with


    Shane, Catherine’s mortal enemy.


    Shane wanted to deal with Catherine, so he was willing to fan the mes as long as it harmed


    Catherine.


    Otherwise, with their abilities alone, they wouldn’t have been able to escte public opinion to such an


    extent.


    Realizing that Catherine had discovered everything she had done, Andrea was unsure of what to do,


    and her face turned ashen.


    Observing his granddaughter’s performance, Erasmus understood the truth.


    In the business world, deceitful tactics were used to handle people, and he didn’t consider it a big deal.


    If his granddaughter could use such methods to marry into the Lamberts and be Triston’s wife, he


    would be happy for her.


    But Andrea was useless. Not only did she fail, but she also brought trouble to their doorstep.


    Erasmus’s face darkened, and he gave the ultimatum. “Andrea, I don’t care what you’ve done. But as


    long as you damage the reputation of the Silvas, you will no longer be a part of the Silvas.


    Andrea forced a bitter smile. She understood her grandfather’s meaning. She looked up at Erasmus, a


    touch of sadness in her eyes. “Grandpa, rest assured. I’ll bear the consequences of my actions.”


    After saying this, she turned to face Catherine. “I admit it was me who contacted Shane. I orchestrated


    the entire n to frame Audrey. If you want revenge, juste to me. But this has nothing to do with


    the Silvas. Please let them go.”


    Catherine assessed the situation. Despite Andrea’s arrogant posture, she preferred Andrea over


    Emma. She didn’t deny Andrea’s intelligence butmented that Andrea had used it in the wrong ce.


    “Give me a reason to spare the Silvas,” said Catherine.
