A Replacement Bride

Chapter 63

When Katherine came out of the Cornell Residence with Joaquin, the Levisays' chauffeur was already waiting outside.

Exiting the compound, Joaquin did not bother to act anymore as he stood up and got into the car.

Katherine smirked at that sight, feeling a bit speechless.

The chauffeur then folded the wheelchair and kept it in the boot before looking at her. "Are you coming with us, Miss Cornell?"

Hearing this, Joaquin looked up at her with a deep, dark gaze that resembled an eddy.

Just as Katherine was about to reject him, she heard the man say, "Get in."

His forceful tone did not allow room for her to say 'no'.

She knew that if she was to go back in now, Rosemary would go head-to-head with her. Not wanting to argue with her, Katherine thought about it and entered the car before shutting the door.

The chauffeur then started the car and left the residence.

"You knew how to concoct medicine?" The powder Katherine gave Rosemary was seen by him; even sniffing it from so far away made him a bit excited. He knew full well that this kind of drug was not for sale.

On top of that, he was aware that Katherine knew pharmaceuticals, so she was the only suspect that could have formulated it.

Yawning, Katherine leaned on the seat lazily and looked at him. "What are you talking about, Mr. Levisay? I don't get you. I'm a bit tired now, so I want to sleep. I'm heading back to Soulin International. What about you?"

"Soulin International." Joaquin looked at her, but he did not expose her for feigning innocence.

"Let's go, then." She nodded.

As such, the chauffeur dropped them off at their destination with Joaquin opening the door and getting off by himself. Meanwhile, a lightheaded Katherine was yawning along her steps and she felt that something was off.
