Chapter 242
Kitty was clutching her head with both hands, legs gone jelly, sitting on the ground. Despite her greed, she didnât possess the courage for a situation like this. Whenever she had to deal with Herman, she would prepare meticulously, memorize her lines, and practice how to handle unexpected situations. But when the gun was pointed at her head, she was scared shitless, blabbering out everything.
âIt was Ms. Brown. It was Julie made me do it,â Kitty shook her head, âI was forced.â
Hearing Julieâs name, Herman wasnât surprised at all, but Flynn was thunderstruck. âWhy would it be her? Why would she do this?â
Flynn asked Herman in confusion, âBro, how did Julie know about your past?â
Herman put his gun away, coldly telling Kitty, âGet lost.â
Kitty felt like she had been pardoned, but she couldnât help but drool over the money. She was kicking herself now. If only sheâd taken the five mil last time, damn, greed really did make you stupid.
At the Salstrom family mansion.
Julie was a bit nervous. Kitty had done well the last time, but would she pull it off this time? Sheâd heard about Hermanâs past from Collin and came up with this plan. She couldnât find the woman from five years ago, so she had to find a substitute. Kitty was greedy and cheap, average-looking, perfect for the job.
Katelyn asked a few times, âWhy hasnât she come down yet? My son didnât do anything to her, did he?â
Julie replied, âDonât worry, Herman will handle it. Speaking of which, didnât Herman get married? Why havenât I seen your daughter-in-law here yet? Last time at the hospital, she didnât seem to know who Herman was.â
This was a loaded question, and Julie was testing Katelynâs reaction.
âTalking about it makes me mad. He finally got married, but he didnât bring her home,â Katelyn said, âWhen will I get to hold my grandchild?â
Julie forced a smile, âYou seem to like your daughter-in-law. I heard she only graduated from high school, and she is from an average family.â
âAna is beautiful and kind. Whatâs important is that my son likes her. Besides, the Salstrom family doesnât need to marry into wealth, weâre doing just fine,â Katelyn was open-minded, holding Julieâs hand, âJulie, Iâve always liked you. I tried to match you with Herman before, but how about my younger son?â
This caught Julie off guard. Compared to Herman, Flynn was a far cry.
ââ¦â
Before Julie could finish, Kitty came down, flustered. Julie was anxious, but she kept her poker face, âMs. Kitty, what happened?â
Kitty glanced at Julie, said nothing, and left in a hurry. She had to leave, or sheâd lose the 200k Julie gave her.
Katelyn was puzzled, âWhy did she leave?â
Julie knew her secret was out, and didnât dare to stay, âI have some things to do, Iâll come visit you next time.â She had originally come to watch the drama, eager to witness Kittyâs performance. However, things didnât go as planned, and instead, she found herself in trouble.
Katelyn said, âAh, Julie, youâre leaving too?â
Julie left in a hurry, and Flynn came downstairs, âIf she didnât leave, my brother mightâve done something to her. Sheâs too greedy, daring to mess with the Salstrom family.â
Katelyn was confused, âFlynn, what are you talking about?â
âThat woman was brought by Julie, Flynn said, âI think sheâs up to no good, and her actions are quite despicable.â
âHow could it be Julie?â Katelyn was shocked, couldnât believe it.
Meanwhile.
Anastasia was shopping for clothes with her daughter when she got a call from Melinda.
Melinda was free in the afternoon and invited her for tea, wanting to formally thank her. Anastasia also wanted to learn more about the past, which might help find her daughter, so she took her daughter and caught a cab to meet Melinda.
Seeing Anastasia holding her daughterâs hand, Melinda said, âAnastasia, youâre married, and your daughter is already so big.
