A Replacement Bride

Chapter 91

"Who else can I be if not the eldest daughter of the Cornell Family?" Katherine smirked, her striking facial features appearing even more alluring.

Something seemed to have nudged Joaquin's heart. With their distance now only inches apart, he could undeniably smell her faint signature scent, and she was even more captivating than when they first met.

He took a step back to keep a distance from Katherine. At the same time, he reminded himself to not disappoint Beatrice, as he had to be responsible for Beatrice when he had taken her virginity. Especially when she was now at her most vulnerable, having just lost her legs.

The shift of emotion beneath Joaquin's eyes happened in merely a split second, so Katherine didn't notice anything.

Unwilling to resign to fate, Jordan pursued the tracker for a while, but to no avail. Alas, just as this woman had said, the guy is long gone. At that, he growled a cuss and punched the monitor, unwilling to admit defeat just like that.

"Just who the heck are you? How do you have such advanced computing skills? Also, just now you…" It wasn't after a few hurls of anger that Jordan remembered about the woman he had disregarded, and so he hurriedly went up to Katherine, staring at her with bloodshot eyes.

However, Katherine returned his stare with an innocent look. "Why ask me when you can ask your boss who I am? As for why I have such advanced computing skills, I have no obligation to explain it to you, do I?"

Taken aback, Jordan realized he had behaved rudely, and thus he apologized at once. "Sorry, I-I didn't mean to be rude. It's just… you're really impressive. You managed to deal with an issue none of us could handle in just a matter of minutes. Just how on earth did you do it? Can you teach us?"

"Not interested, and I'm very busy." Katherine rejected forthrightly. "If there's nothing else, I'm leaving."

Jordan had wanted to say more, but he sensed an icy glare on him, and he looked in the direction to find Joaquin standing next to Katherine. And so, just like that, he swallowed the words already at the tip of his tongue.

Later, Katherine went to check on the injured, making sure they were doing just fine before bidding Joaquin goodbye.

Jeremy personally drove Katherine home, and throughout the journey, his gaze at the young woman was of none but utter passion. Never had he imagined she was not only a skilled medical practitioner but also a master in coding.
