A Replacement Bride

Chapter 204

"Come again?" The smile on Jennifer's face faded, and her voice turned grim.

"Come again?" The smile on Jennifer's face faded, and her voice turned grim.

A startled Katherine looked doubtfully at Jennifer, for she did not remember seeing Jennifer with such a stern expression before. There was always a gentle smile on Jennifer's face, and she seemed to be a mild-tempered person all year round.

Therefore, Katherine was shocked to see her with such an expression.

"Old bat, if you don't believe me, you can try to ignore me. Let's see how much of your man's bone ash will be left by then." The other party snickered and hung up the call.

Jennifer clenched her phone, her eyes spitting fire.

Life had been kind to her, for she had never experienced any hardship before. Even when Darren passed away, she only spat blood and passed out because she was too furious. Then, she remained unconscious for a pretty long time.

When she regained consciousness, she realized that Katherine was pregnant. She pushed the hatred to the back of her mind and kept Katherine company. After Noah was born, she took good care of the child.

For years, she had remained calm and collected. Even when Emma made a scene in her home, she only found it laughable; she wasn't mad at all. However, she was enraged this time.

Those people shouldn't have threatened her with her deceased husband. This is too much!

Seeing that Jennifer was infuriated, Katherine called out with concern, "Grandma?"

The fury on Jennifer's face vanished into thin air in an instant as she turned to look at Katherine with a smile. "I'm fine, Kathy. I'm just tired. By the way, it's your Grandpa's birthday tomorrow, so I'll visit him at the cemetery. Can you prepare something for me?"

After staring at Jennifer for a while, Katherine nodded. "Sure."

Jennifer put on a smile and yawned, as though she was truly exhausted. Then, she rose from the chair and returned to her room. Katherine watched her leave in silence. After Jennifer was gone, Keith leaned close to Katherine and called out, "Kathy?"
