Chapter 300


    "Me? Deceive you? I don''t believe you don''t know what the Scott-Tutton Family is like! You are just like


    them, never willing to believe the truth or admit your mistakes!"


    Jennifer couldn''t help feeling utterly disappointed as she arrived at an epiphany.


    "It looks like the Scott-Tutton Family has instilled many evil ideas in your head over the years. I can''t


    believe how incapable you are of telling between good and evil! I truly regret my actions now. Why


    didn''t I bring you with me when I left back then? Instead, I''ve left you to be exactly like the rest of


    the Scott-Tutton Family—cold-blooded and callous!"


    Then, she took two steps forward. Her whole body exuded a powerful aura, and her expression was


    imposing.


    "I''ve told you everything I have to say and exined everything I know about the past events to you.


    That''s all I have to say. I don''t have an ounce of guilt toward the Scott-Tutton Family, let alone you.


    Whether you believe me or not is up to you! I have nothing more to say to you if you wish to continue


    deluding yourself with those lies! But you need to remove the poison in Kathy''s body immediately! She


    is my granddaughter on my daughter''s side! She has nothing to do with the grievances between you


    and Mike!"


    Eddie kept his mouth shut tightly. The muscles in his cheek twitched, and his expression was hideous.


    He refused to believe the story he had told him earlier, but he had the vague realization that she was


    speaking the truth. The conflicting and contradictory emotions in his heart ripped his reasoning apart.


    After some time, he shook his head firmly. In the end, his hatred gained the upper hand, and he


    returned to his usual ruthless demeanor.


    "You want me to save her? Impossible! I didn''t tell you the truth earlier. The poison I used on her is the


    mother curse! There is no cure! If I save her, I will suffer the bacsh of the poison instead! Jenny, if


    you still regard me as your younger brother, then you should feel sorry for me. How could you allow me


    to suffer from the bacsh?" After he said that, he grinned ferociously. "Unless… Unless you are willing


    to kneel and beg me to save her! Instruct Joaquin to help me kill Mike. Then, I might be willing to


    remove the poison from her body!"


    As soon as the words left his mouth, she immediately froze in shock.


    "You… You used the mother curse!? Are you insane?!"


    He threw his head back andughed wildly. "What do you mean by insane? It doesn''t matter what I


    need to do to achieve my goal! I will kill Mike no matter what! Only by killing will I be able to avenge my


    youngest son! Who cares whether I survive the attempt or not?"


    At this moment, Jennifer waspletely shaken to the core.


    She initially thought that Katherine would be able to remove the poison through the self-medication


    administered earlier. The reason she went to the trouble of telling her story just now was to make Eddie


    drop his guard and bring out the antidote, just in case.


    Who could have imagined that he had used the mother curse on Katherine?


    The poison of the mother curse was ten thousand times more difficult to remove than ordinary poison!


    For a moment, she became uncertain as to whether Katherine could sessfully remove the poison


    through self-medication. What if…


    Before she knew it, a denseyer of cold sweat had formed on her back. She looked at Katherine''s


    ashenplexion. She couldn''t suppress her worry, so she finally decided on apromise.N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    "Eddie, promise me! As long as I kneel before you, you will hand over the antidote!"


    Eddie sneered, "That will depend on whether you can satisfy me. I might not be willing to hand over the


    antidote even if you knelt before me, but I definitely won''t bring out the antidote if you refuse to kneel


    before me! Jenny, you were far more decisive when you left the Scott-Tutton Family than you are now!"


    She knew that he would not relent upon hearing those words. She clenched her fists tightly and


    ultimately gave a heavy sigh. "Fine. I will kneel."


    As soon as the words left her mouth, Donald immediately turned pale with horror. "Jenny!"


    Both Katherine and Joaquin looked grim. "Grandma!"


    That was especially so for Katherine. She even shot a sharp look at Eddie. At the same time, her wrist,


    which had been hanging by her side, moved slightly. She repeatedly clenched her fingers into a fist and


    rxed her grip.


    Eddie failed to notice Katherine''s movements. Instead, he was staring fixedly at Jennifer with a look of


    contempt in his eyes. "You should have thought about the consequences of betraying the family when


    you left the Scott-Tutton Family back then!"


    Jennifer ignored him and took two steps forward. Her expression was nk and emotionless. Then,


    she lowered her body into a kneeling position after taking a deep breath.


    At that fleeting moment, Katherine confirmed that she had regained strength in her body. She shoved


    Joaquin aside, exchanged a look with him, and then stood up abruptly.


    The instant he received her signal, he followed her example and rose to his feet without saying a word.


    At the same time, he grabbed Jennifer right before she knelt on the ground and said coldly, "Grandma,


    you can''t kneel."


    He quickly pulled her behind him to protect her. When he looked up again, he saw Katherine moving


    forward with a frigid expression and kicking Eddie hard in the knee before Eddie even had the time to


    react.


    In the next moment, there was a loud ''thud''. Eddie, who waspletely caught off guard, felt a sharp


    pain in his knees and immediately fell to a kneeling position on the ground.


    Meanwhile, the bottle of antidote in his hand rolled to the side.


    He was stunned. A while passed before he btedly realized what had happened and instinctively tried


    to crawl to his feet.


    Nevertheless, he felt somebody pressing him down by the shoulders before he could make a move.


    "What? Are you trying to get up? Hah…"


    A cold and sharp voice rang out from above his head, causing his entire body to tremble in response.


    He abruptly raised his head and saw Katherine bending down in front of him. She had one hand


    pressed against his shoulder.


    At this moment, her delicate eyes seemed to be covered in ayer of evesting frost. Her originally


    scarlet lips were pale and bloodless, but they were curved into a chilling smile.


    Frankly, it was obvious that she had not used much strength. Be that as it may, he could not move a


    muscle despite struggling hard against her.


    Then, a shocked expression appeared on his face. "You… You…"


    Eddie stuttered for a long time but could not finish his sentence. Katherine was in no hurry either. She


    leaned to the side, used her other hand to pick up the bottle of antidote from the floor, and toyed with it


    in the palm of her hand.


    "Are you surprised to see that I''m fine?" she suddenly asked in a tone that was mixed with ridicule. "I


    don''t mind telling you the truth. Although you poisoned me, my physique has always been different


    from others. The strength of any poison that enters my body will weaken by more than half. The mother


    curse might be powerful, but I only need to perform acupuncture for fifteen minutes to remove the


    effects easily. All I needed was a period of time that was free of any hindrances."


    As soon as he heard those words, his pupils immediately contracted violently. His expression was filled


    with utter disbelief. "How… How is that possible!?"


    He looked at her as though he was staring at a monster. Then, he immediately realized something.


    "That''s why you and your grandmother…"


    Before Eddie could finish his sentence, Katherine guessed what he wanted to say. She immediately


    raised an eyebrow and shook her head.


    "It''s true that I was deliberately stalling to buy more time. Like how you used your past with Mike to buy


    time for the poison to take effect in my body, I was buying time to remove the poison from my body.


    However, that is unrted to my grandmother''s story. Everything she told you was the truth. It''s just


    that you refuse to believe her." After she said that, she narrowed her eyes. Her body had recovered its


    strength by 80%, and she increased the force exerted in her hands by a small margin.


    How could an old man like Eddie endure such immense powering from her? His expression


    immediately twisted in extreme agony.
