    Chapter 464 Scared of You


    Kathleen scoffed. “nder? What did I nder you for? I only said that you knew Marjory. How is that


    nder? Oh, is there something wrong with Marjory?”Miley bit her lip in silence, as she had no way to


    retort what Kathleen had said.Kathleen shot a cold look at Richard. “You can either find out the truth or


    stay as an idiot. It’s your choice.”With that, she strode off.Richard frowned deeply, having a feeling that


    Kathleen was hinting at something.“Richard, don’t be tricked by her. She’s just bitter about Gemma’s


    death,” Miley uttered tentatively.“Who is Marjory?” he asked, knitting his brows.“S-She…” Miley


    stammered. “She’s a friend of mine.”Is she admitting that she knows Marjory?“What does she do for a


    living?” Richard was still frowning.Miley paused for a while before answering, “She was hired by my


    parents to teach me self-defense tactics in the past. I was her student, but I was too pampered so I quit


    halfway. Then, she left my house.”Richard stared at her quietly.“Richard, let’s get inside. The doctor is


    waiting for us,” Miley reminded, trying to change the topic.Richard then pushed her into the hospital,


    expressionless.Miley clenched her fists secretly. Kathleen’s presence is a threat to me!Meanwhile,


    Kathleen returned to the mansion and saw Rory taking out an ointment from the first aid kit.“Rory, what


    happened?” Kathleen walked over.“I…” Rory was at a loss for words.Kathleen snatched the ointment


    from her. “Where did you get hurt? I’ll help you to apply it on you.”Rory then took off her top, revealing a


    severely bruised spot on her shoulder.“How did you get this?” Kathleen was shocked.“I had a brawl


    with Marjory,” Rory replied in a low voice. “She was my teacher, so…”“You didn’t win?” Kathleen


    cocked her brow.“We tied.”“There’s nothing to be ashamed of, then. Luckily, she didn’t pin you down on


    the floor and beat you to a pulp,” Kathleenforted.Rory was rendered speechless.Kathleen’s


    curiosity was piqued. “Why did you start fighting with her?” she continued.“When we were secretly


    tracking Ashley, she noticed us. Dr. Johnson, Marjory is now Ashley’s personal bodyguard. It’s quite


    strange for her to provide protection to Ashley,” Rory exined.“Oh?” Kathleen raised her brow. “How


    so?”Rory answered, “Marjory is very capable. Hiring her to be a bodyguard is costly. If Ashley didn’t do


    anything, why would the Zeller family hire such a good bodyguard for her? Is it because they know


    someone would seek revenge on Ashley as she had done something wrong?”Kathleen understood


    what Rory was implying.If Ashley was just trying to steal Samuel while he was still suffering from


    amnesia, no one would want her dead.Unless… she also did something else. In fact, I’ve always had a


    troubling question on my mind. I am not sure if my assumption is right, but I could have my surmise

    confirmed during the engagement ceremony. That’s decided then.Kathleen continued to apply the


    ointment on Rory. “Do you know Marjory well?”“Not really. She was just my teacher after all. We didn’t


    reallymunicate with each other in private,” Rory elucidated.Kathleen narrowed her eyes. “I have an


    idea. She poses a great threat to us. We should eliminate her as soon as possible.”“How should we do


    that?” Rory knitted her brow.After pondering for a moment, Kathleen replied, “I do have an idea, but I’ll


    need your cooperation.”“Okay.” Rory nodded. “When should we make our move?”“Tonight!” A hint of


    solemness emerged on Kathleen’s beautiful face. “We can’t dy this.”“Understood.”After the fight with


    Rory, Marjory went back home.She didn’t expect that Rory, her ex-student, had the same level of


    capability as herself.If it were in the past, she could definitely outpower Rory and defeat her student


    easily, but now, they tied.Rory is not to be underestimated, so I have to be careful.“You’re back.”


    Lauren yawned as she came out of her room. “What happened to your face?”“Nothing.” Marjory’s pride


    didn’t allow her to tell other people about her draw with her ex-student.“I’m not being nosey.” Lauren


    spoke in a low voice. “It’s fine if you don’t want to talk about it, but I just want to tell you that Kathleen


    will definitely do something during Ashley’s engagement ceremony. You’ll need to keep her under


    control. Nothing can happen to you at this critical juncture.”“I know.” Marjory was unperturbed.Upon


    seeing her reaction, Lauren did not bother to speak more with Marjory.After that, Marjory went back to


    her room.If it wasn’t for money, I wouldn’t have cared about this matter.Just then, her phone rang.She


    took her phone and found that it was a message from Rory.Rory texted: See you at the warehouse at


    twelve o’clock tonight.Marjory replied: I’m not going.Rory: Then, I’ll expose you.Marjory: What?


    Rory: Do you think I’m unaware of what you did for Miley? What do you think Kathleen would do to you


    if she knows what you had done?Marjory: What do you want?Rory: Meet me, and we shall fight


    again!Marjory: Fine!Left with no choice, Marjory could only agree to Rory’s request.Her greatest worry


    was Rory giving the evidence she had to Kathleen or Richard. If that happened, Marjory knew she


    would be in deep trouble.When midnight came, Marjory went to the abandoned warehouse.The


    moment she stepped foot in that warehouse, a beam of light shone on her.Standing on a stack of


    wooden boxes, Rory gazed down at Marjory from above.“I knew you’de,” Rory said. “Seems like


    you’re scared that I’d leak your secret. As a teacher of a bodyguard training institution, you didn’t fulfill


    your duties to protect other people. Instead, you helped someone else to harm a person. You vited


    the rules of the institution. Your reputation will be tainted, and you will no longer be a teacher, let alone


    take on missions.”Marjory gritted her teeth. “Rory, there are many people like me in the institution. The


    higher-ups of the institution will just turn a blind eye to it.”“Why did youe then?”Marjory froze on the


    spot.Rory smiled inwardly. Kathleen is so smart! She’s guessed it right.“Come down, and let’s have a


    duel!” Marjory was ready.Rory gave her a frosty smile. “We’ll just have a draw in the end. It’s going to


    be boring, so there’s someone else who wants to fight you.”“Who is it?” Marjory furrowed her brows in


    confusion.“Me.” Kathleen strode over from the side. She was wearing a ck trench coat, looking cool


    and pretty.Marjory scoffed, “Are you kidding me? You?”Kathleen narrowed her eyes. “Are you


    scared?”“How ridiculous. Why would I be scared?” Marjory sneered, “I’ll finish you off right here and


    save myself a lot of trouble.”“Come on then.” Kathleen shed a provoking half-smile.
