Chapter 224
Gabrielle was embarrassed by Katherine's attention.She wouldn't rush up to Katherine to see whether she'd gotten off work if she could only handle this problem on her own.
"Ms.Wilson, I'm so sorry’’ Gabrielle said, feeling miserable.
Katherine just smiled and asked, "Why? What happened?"
Gabrielle lowered her head as she replied, "I failed to handle the situation"
"Just observe while we deal with this together, okay?"
Katherine retorted with a genuine smile on her face.
Gabrielle couldn't see any trace of blame in Katherine's face.
Gabrielle felt her face flush red with shock after seeing Katherine's expression.She couldn't believe that Katherine was so cool about it.
At this time, the elevator door opened.
Katherine glanced at Gabrielle and stepped out of the elevator first.
Katherine heard an old woman whining as she walked down the lobby.
The old woman's voice was so loud and scandalous, which only proved that she wanted to have everyone's attention.
Beside her was a younger woman holding a microphone.
Carrick was standing beside his mother and was observing the incident.
Katherine raised her eyebrows and couldn't help but purse her lips.She just proved her guess right.
Katherine approached them and said, "I heard you want to see me"
Carrick just stared at Katherine and didn't say a word; his expression, dumbfounded.
When Katherine lived with them, she was so slim that anyone would think that she barely ate at all.
Although it was expected that women would change their appearances as they grew, Carrick didn't expect Katherine to become so beautiful.
They had planned that Amelia should do all the crying, and he was supposedly there to offer comfort to her.
But then, Carrick was shocked when he saw Katherine come out of the elevator.
Although he didn't want to admit it, he could see that Katherine resembled his younger sister, Celia.
Now that Katherine was standing in front of them, although there was a trace of a smile on her face, her charming eyes were still filled with coldness, which intimidated Carrick and made him speechless.
When Amelia heard Katherine's words, she forgot about all her tantrums and stood up, sizing up Katherine.
When she first saw Katherine, Amelia was also stunned.
Amelia thought, ‘I can't believe this bitch turned out so fine! If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done what I did in the past.
I should have married her to a rich guy in our village instead.
Then, Carrick wouldn't have been so useless!’ But all that didn't matter now.
Amelia put away her thoughts and reached out to argue with Katherine.
"How can you do that? You have no conscience at all! You wouldn't even visit your grandmother and uncle!"
Katherine avoided the old woman's hand and slowly took a step back.
She just stared at her while Amelia still pretended to cry and kept on scolding her with pretentious whims.She didn't interrupt and just stood there and watched Amelia with her act.
Amelia couldn't believe that Katherine wouldn't say a word to defend herself.
The popular vlogger decided to break the silence and greeted Katherine instead.
"Hello, Ms.Wilson.My name is Zoey.I'm the host of ‘Zoey For The Needy: We understand that Ms.Amelia and Mr.Carrick are your relatives, but Ms.Amelia is claiming that you won't see them.They came here to visit and see you, but they were driven away by your security"
Katherine glanced at the host with a smile and asked, "I just want to know why they invited you here?"
Zoey had never seen such a calm person in her entire life.She was speechless for a moment, and it took a few seconds before she was able to open her mouth and reply.
"I want to see you and hear your side of the story.Amelia said that she only has one son and one daughter.Your parents had an accident ten years ago, and she had not seen you since then.Amelia just wanted to see you because you're her granddaughter.
She hasn't stopped thinking about you for years’ Katherine glanced at the old woman and then smiled at the host again. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
"So, they asked you to come here to see me, right?"
"Yes,'' Zoey answered.
"So now that you've already seen me, can I ask you to please stop wandering here in the lobby?"
The host, Zoey, looked at Katherine, who was always calm and collected and tried to say something.
However, Katherine interrupted her and continued, "Oh, I know.You still want something from me?"
This time, Katherine diverted her attention to Amelia and directly asked her, "Tell me, how much do you want?"
As she spoke, she took out a pen and a checkbook and looked at Amelia with a poker face.
