Chapter 242

Joaquin was bewildered after hearing this information, and his pupils shrank in horror. "What did you say?!" His taut voice turned hoarse. One could even deduce from his voice alone that he barely had a handle on his emotional turmoil.

Jeremy knew firsthand how out of this world this news was. It was like a bomb thrown into a calm lake, which caused a massive shockwave. Even he was utterly astonished when he heard it, so he couldn't even imagine what Joaquin was feeling at this moment. He licked his lips and stammered, "That woman in the bar five years ago w-was Katherine!"

Then, he hastily added as if he remembered something, "By the way, when I met the bar owner today, he was muttering something like ''Damn it. What is up with them? Why did everyone come to ask me about that day'. It sounded rather strange, so I asked him about it, a-and he told me that Katherine had gone to meet him earlier and said that she already knew who the man was..."

It meant that Katherine knew that Joaquin was the man from five years ago.

Joaquin squeezed his phone tightly as his veins bulged due to his agitation. He pursed his thin lips into a line, and his well-defined features couldn't even hide his gloominess. He did not say a word. Perhaps, it was more like he couldn't bring himself to say anything as complicated emotions flashed within his dark eyes. Plus, he could barely untangle the mess that was in his mind.

How can it be... She was the woman from five years ago! I've been looking for her for so long, but she has always been by my side!

His eyes fluttered shut as he tried to digest this shocking news. Finally, he suppressed the well of emotions in his eyes as he rubbed his forehead.

"Boss..." Jeremy hesitantly spoke up on the other end of the line since Joaquin hadn't given him a reply, so he was curious to know what Joaquin intended to do.

However, before he could finish his sentence, Joaquin hung up on him.

"Hey?! Boss!" He gasped in bafflement when he heard the dial tone. Then, he sighed helplessly.

Who would have thought that Joaquin and Katherine had already met five years ago? Still, the nonsense lawsuit five years ago should finally come to an end.

Moreover, Joaquin had to think about how to explain himself to Katherine. Fortunately for Jeremy, that was none of his business.
