A Replacement Bride

Chapter 315

Just as Katherine and Joaquin were about to leave the presidential suite to look for Eddie, someone from outside banged on the door hard, and before the two knew it, several strong men wearing black rushed in and surrounded them.

Before she could react, she saw Joaquin's face darken. He promptly stood in front of her in a defensive stance, trying to shield her from the men.

"Who the hell are you? How dare you break into the suite? Get out of here right now!" he yelled as fury flashed across his face. But those men were not afraid of him; they didn't even move an inch. And just when Joaquin was thinking about the next move, a man came in and laughed.

"Why are you acting all scary? We're family, aren't we?"

Katherine recognized the voice the moment the man spoke. She narrowed her eyes and looked straight toward the entrance. She was not surprised to see Mason.

"It's you again," she said dispassionately as she walked from behind Joaquin and stood side by side with him.

Mason raised his eyebrows upon hearing that. "That's right. It's me. It seems that you aren't surprised by my appearance. Are you that sure that we'll meet again?" Without waiting for Katherine's response, he nodded and answered his question as if he was soliloquizing, "Yeah, I bet. After all, we're all Morans. It's normal for family members to be able to read each other's minds. Right, Katherine?"

Katherine couldn't help but tug the corner of her lips in disgust. "Family? Reading each other's minds? Don't make me puke, you moron. Besides, I have made it very clear last time—Grandma has nothing to do with the Morans, let alone me and you."

"Grandma told me before that the Morans are a bunch of shameless people. I didn't really believe her at first. I feel bad for not believing her now that I've seen how lowly you can get.

In Mason's eyes, a mere noble family from Hovington was not sufficient for him to even look down his nose. Not to mention that he had investigated Joaquin and the Levisays after they met last time. After learning that Joaquin was not favored at home and had

dare think you're untouchable just because you married someone from an aristocratic family, Katherine Cornell. Remember, this is Kyoland, not the lowly Hovington. A family from Hovington can never dream of being at the same level as the noble families of Kyoland. Joaquin may be domineering in Hovington, but he's just
