Chapter 118


    Den got Katherine immediately upon hearing her words. Joaquin wasn''t on good terms with the


    Levisay Family and seemed to even have some sort of feud. With that, she went along with Katherine


    without demur. "Thank you, but I''m actually not as impressive as others im me to be. I''ve inherited


    my family''s business. If we''re here talking about impressiveness, then I am no match for Mr. Levisay. I


    heard his worth was already over billions at the tender age of 16. Now that''s what I call impressive."


    Elizabeth was so livid that she looked beyond awful, wanting to chuck Katherine out at once. Does this


    b*tch even know how to speak?!


    However, as livid as she was, she didn''tsh out. Then again, her smile had stiffened a lot. "Mr.


    Leventhrope is still more impressive. How can Joaquin''s achievementspare to his?"


    "Grandma, are you saying it''s not at all impressive for Joaquin to have already earned over billions at


    the age of 16? Then, wouldn''t that make Mr. Leventhrope even more useless when he gained his


    achievements solely through family inheritance?" asked Katherine with a naive front while blinking.


    Despite her absolutely harmless look, it was a solid p in Elizabeth''s face.


    Livid with rage, Elizabeth red daggers at the young woman and chucked herdy-like upbringing out


    the window, screeching. "Katherine Cornell! No one will think you''re mute even if you say nothing!


    Leave this house at once! Your marriage to Joaquin is officially off!"


    "Grandma, my marriage to Kathy was my mother''s dying wish." Joaquin, who had said nothing the


    whole time, suddenly spoke up assertively, making his stance.


    Joaquin was a dutiful son through and through. If it weren''t for his mother''s request, he wouldn''t have


    said yes to marrying Katherine in the first ce.


    "Y-You! You two! Good! Very good!" Elizabeth was so upset at this point that she was having difficulty


    breathing. Seeing so, Hera hurriedly soothed Elizabeth by stroking her back, reprimanding Joaquin and


    Katherine in the meantime.


    "Is this how you''re supposed to talk to your grandmother?! Apologize to her at once! Do you want


    anything bad to happen to your grandmother?!" After reprimanding Joaquin and Katherine, she turned


    to Elizabeth. "Mom, take a deep breath. No need to argue with children. They''re still young and don''t


    know any better. So they''ll spout nonsense. Don''t get too upset."


    "But Mom, Joaquin and I didn''t say anything wrong." Katherine made a moue aggrievedly, and her eyes


    turned red-rimmed in a snap as she looked at Hera.


    Hera, on the other hand, was rendered beyond exasperated. Just what the heck is up with this


    woman?! Do you still want to argue when I''ve already given you two a way out?!


    Elizabeth''s anger was already alleviated, all until Katherine spoke up again, causing her to cough in


    anger at once. "Out! Both of you! Out! From now on, you are no longer my grandson! Get the hell out of


    this house! Now!" She pointed furiously toward the door, looking exceptionally ferocious due to anger.


    With that, the young woman stood up at once and pushed Joaquin out without demur. "You''re really


    unbelievable, Grandma. You can''t bully Joaquin like this, even if you don''t like him. It''s precisely that he


    doesn''t have a mother that you guys choose to pick on him, no? Well, he might not have a mother


    anymore, but he has a wife. We''ll leave this instant. Don''te begging us if you have any trouble in


    the future!" sheined aggrievedly while leaving.


    Meanwhile, Elizabeth passed out from being far too furious.


    "Mom?"


    "Mrs. Levisay!"


    Just like that, chaos enveloped the Levisay Family.


    The chaotic scene in the Levisay household and Katherine''s departure gave Den no more reason to


    stay. With that, he bid the family farewell and left.


    Katherine couldn''t care less about the chaos enveloping the Levisay Family right then, and she even


    thought the air felt much fresher after leaving the Levisay Residence.


    "I''m surprised you''re so protective of me. You haven''t really fallen in love with me, have you?" Joaquin


    looked at Katherin with a half smile aftering out of the Levisay Manor.


    To that, Katherine rolled her eyes at him. "You sure are thick-skinned. To think you can say something


    this shameless."


    "Why did you stand up for me?" Joaquin fixed his gaze on Katherine, not missing any of her


    expressions.


    "In case you''ve forgotten, dear Mr. Fiancé, we''re husband and wife. The kind with a marriage


    certificate." She rolled her eyes at the man again and exined, "It''d be weird if I didn''t stand up for


    you, don''t you think? Don''t worry. I''m just acting. I won''t get any ideas I shouldn''t have, so you don''t


    need to feel burdened. I''m going back to Soulin; what about you?"


    "Let''s go together."

    "Hold up." An anxious voice came right as the two left the gates and were about to get into the car to


    leave.


    Feeling troubled by the voice, Katherine quickened her steps as she pushed Joaquin, who already had


    a hunch that the young woman was acquainted with Den, and now, he was even more certain when


    he saw how she was reacting.


    But the question is, how does someone like Den know Katherine?


    However, Joaquin snuffed out the inchoate thought very quickly.


    It shouldn''t be surprising that this woman would be acquainted with just about anyone when she has


    such impressive medical skills.


    Meanwhile, Den reeled in shock when he saw Katherine dashing away while pushing Joaquin. Why


    doesn''t Boss want to see me?!


    Just like that, he glumly watched the pair get into the car and leave.


    Katherine, on the other hand, heaved a sigh of relief after getting into the car.


    Upon arriving at Soulin International, she parted ways with Joaquin.


    After entering her apartment, she pulled out her phone, and sure enough, she received a few calls from


    one hidden number.


    With that, she returned the call, and Den''s whining came from the other end of the line. "Boss, why


    did you run away after you saw me? Am I that scary?"


    "What are you doing here in Hovington?" demanded Katherine inly only after she poured herself a


    ss of water and sat on the couch.


    "WQ has moved its headquarters to Kond, and we''re establishing a subsidiary in Hovington. I''ve


    come to study where we should build the subsidiary," Den answered soberly.


    "Uh-huh, sure." Katherine believed not a single word of it.


    However, the man yed dumb and continued, "Boss, it''s been two years since you left. Are you really


    not going to take over thepany? Thepany—"


    s, Katherine hung up on him while he was still speaking. So he tried calling again, only to hear a


    cold, robotic voice telling him that the number he had dialed wasn''t within the service area.


    Clearly, she had blocked his number. At that, Den stared nkly at the screen and sighed in the


    end.


    WQ was a daughterpany of the world''s number one super-consortium, and over fiftypanies


    managed to squeeze into the world''s top hundred. Only Katherine would avoid and refuse to take over


    such a money-makingpany like it was a gue.


    At the thought of how the Levisays treated Katherine and what he managed to find after arriving at


    Hovington, Den couldn''t wait to see how regretful those who looked down on Katherine would feel


    after they realized who she truly was.
