Chapter 338
Love Is Fair
Chapter 338 The Truth Was Revealed Randal was going to attend the fashion week in Lawienburg and suggested that Hailey go with him to relax.
Karl was worried about his sister and went there with them.
So, the three of them headed for Lawienburg together.
Lawienburg Fashion Week was one of the four most famous fashion weeks in the world. Compared with the casual fashion in Normera City, the delicate fashion in Panie, and the luxurious fashion in Mililand, the fashion of Lawienburg was more imaginative.
And the wildest one.
Hailey was not unfamiliar with this kind of fashion activity. After all, as the young lady of the Newman Jewelry, she had attended all kinds of fashion shows with her mother since childhood. When Hailey was very young, she had been in and out of the backstage.
She had grown up in the arms of various models and fashion designers. If her mother hadnât stopped her, Hailey would have almost become a child star.
But in the end, Hailey didnât become a star, while Randal became an idol.
Randal was not only a singer, an actor, and the son of a famous star but also a fashion talent who was good at promoting goods for various luxury brands.
The three of them carried a dozen suitcases, and they were prepared for Hailey.
Women liked to appear beautiful and change all kinds of clothes. Randal and Karl assumed that all the high-end customized clothes of various brands would go into Haileyâs suitcase.
After all, their mother also did so.
What else could they do except pamper their sister?
Karl and Hailey didnât go to the red carpet with Randal. Instead, they went straight into the venue to wait for the show. Hailey went backstage to greet several familiar people from some famous brands and began to talk about business.
However, when she walked out, she met a person she didnât expect to meet.
âWhat a coincidence, Miss Grace! Good to see you here!â Katherine greeted Hailey, friendly in a tailored dress, looking as beautiful as a star.
âHello, Ms. May.â Hailey pulled her lips into a fake smile and intended to walk out without any intention of continuing the conversation.
Katherine stepped forward and stopped her. âMay I have a word with you?â
âSorry, I donât have time now.â Hailey still smiled, but she didnât show Katherine any respect, feeling disgusted to talk with a bitch like her.
âDonât you want to know how Sophia died?â Katherine asked.
Upon that, Hailey stopped.
The corridor they were the way from backstage to the restroom. There were not many people there, and their words seemed particularly loud in the quiet corridor.
Hailey turned around and squinted at Katherine, asking. âWhat do you mean?â
Katherine still wore a cold smile on her delicate face, just like a masked woman. Even though they were so close to each other, Hailey could feel the coldness all over Katherineâs body.
It seemed as if Katherine were a living dead from a tomb.
âHill must have told you about the relationship between Sophia and me, right?â Katherine asked.
Haileyâs face turned cold. âWhat do you want to say? I donât have time to waste my breath with you here.â
âI love Earl.â Katherine leaned against the wall and lit a cigarette. As the smoke swirled around her, a glum look was cast on her face. âI have loved him for many years. When I first came to Bormintam and met him at the banquet, I fell in love with him. A great number of men chased after me and begged me to take a look at them since I was a child. Only he disdains me.â
Suddenly, Katherine chuckled. âBut I still fell in love with him regardless of everything, as if he were the only man in the world. I only have him in my eyes!â
Haileyâs face darkened. Somehow, she felt strange.
It seemed like she was listing to her own story, but she was also like an onlooker, listening to everything coldly without being touched at all.
âI summoned up the courage to confess my love to him, but he refused me and married someone else.â
Katherine took two big drags, and a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes. âI donât understand. What was so good about Sophia? Lost to her just because she was a Congland like Hill? I couldnât accept it!
Since I was a child, Iâve been able to get everything I want, whether money, status, or men! As long as I want, they must be mine! Do you understand?â âHah! As long as you want it, it has to be yours?â Hailey pondered over her words and sneered. âWhy? Because of your big face or your viciousness? Ms. May, let me share a proverb with you.â In Conglish, Hailey continued, âAs a toad, donât ever dream of dating the swan.â
Katherine frowned.
âWhatâs wrong? Canât you understand? Let me interpret for you.â
Hailey then explained to her, and as soon as she finished her sentences, Katherineâs face darkened as she threw the cigarette butt at Hailey.
Hailey dodged swiftly. The cigarette butt didnât burn her face but fell on her body and burned her dress.
Looking at the burnt hole in her dress, Hailey cursed, âDamn it,â and looked up at Katherine coldly.
Katherine sneered and walked towards her step by step. âMiss Grace, donât blame me for not warning you. I hate those who stand in my way the most, and Iâll get rid of them at all costs!â
Hailey didnât lose her temper but stared at her coldly. âThatâs why my sister-in-law, Sophia, was killed by you? You killed her and her baby just because she stood in your way?â
Katherine didnât deny it. âSomeone asked me for help, and I just did him a small favor.â
Haileyâs eyes narrowed coldly. âMy sister-in-law treated you as her friend, but you schemed against her with others!â âFriend? Are you kidding me?â Katherine laughed. âI donât need a friend. I need Earl Hill!
Sophia deserved to die, so Iâ¦
Katherine couldnât finish her words because a figure suddenly showed up and grabbed her by the neck coldly. In an instant, she was lifted up.
âItâs really you.â Karlâs voice was chilly cold, his eyes filled with hatred.
Katherineâs feet had left the ground, and her face flushed, blue veins standing out on her neck. She widened her eyes in horror and uncontrollably rolled her eyes up, unable to utter a single word.
At this moment, she was like an ant that could be killed at any time in Karlâs hand, too weak to struggle.
Katherineâs men heard the news and rushed over, but they were soon subdued by Karlâs men. Just when Hailey thought that Karl was really going to strangle Katherine, Karl suddenly loosened his grip.
âIf she really killed Sophie, death is too easy for her!â Hailey looked coldly at the woman who fell to the ground in a miserable state.
Karl wiped his hands with a square towel and glared daggers at Katherine as if he were looking at a dead dog. In a cold voice, he uttered, âIndeed, we canât let her die too easily.â
It was not that easy to pay back the lives of his wife and child.
Hailey narrowed her eyes and sighed in her head. It seemed that the night in Bormintam would be restless again.
