A Replacement Bride

Chapter 353

After the Morans had been defeated, Mason sought out Katherine to beg for mercy. Did he actually treat her as if she were a fool?

Feeling a burning sensation on his face, he was embarrassed. Then, he clenched his teeth and endured the humiliation, pleading, "Miss Cornell, I was ignorant back then. Please spare my family! I swear that as long as you have mercy on us, I will do anything for you!"

"Ignorant?" As if hearing some kind of joke, Katherine snickered out loud. "The word 'ignorant' is usually used to describe youngsters. You're not young anymore. Aren't your actions inappropriate for your age? If you want to call someone ignorant, your good-for-nothing son is the perfect example. How do you feel being messed up by your own son? Is it fun?"

After hearing her remarks, Mason was taken aback, and his face turned green briefly out of anger and embarrassment. Is she aware of how much resentment and reluctance I must muster to travel to Hovington and beg her forgiveness? In addition to the Moran Corporation's bankruptcy and the Moran family's destruction, my entire family was evicted from the Moran Residence this morning by this b*tch's subordinate! There's no way I'd beg for her forgiveness if I had somewhere to go.

Looking at his livid expression, Katherine naturally knew that he was not reconciled. He wasn't sincere when he came to beg for mercy. Hence, the sarcasm in her tone grew even more intense the more she spoke.

"You said you'd do anything for me, huh? Forget it. I have so many people working for me now that I need no ungrateful brat. Even if there comes a day when I need manpower, I will recruit someone obedient. Moreover, your family is nothing more than a gang of thieves. If I had you people working for me, I'd have to worry that you'd betray me one day. I'm not that dumb."

Following that, she got up from the couch. Despite being shorter than Mason, she looked at him with a dominant and oppressive gaze.

"Mason Moran, what goes around comes around. I've long been aware of the grudges between grandma and the Morans. I wasn't planning to do anything at first, but since you keep stirring up trouble, I should shut you up once and for all. From now on, the Morans no longer have a foothold in Kyoland. Go home and think about how to spend the rest of your life."

After hearing that, he trembled even more violently, and his face quickly became ashen.

made countless enemies. However, due to their powerful influence back then, no one dared to provoke them. Soon, things went from bad to worse, and the Morans were left destitute. Everyone would compete to be the cherry on top, and it would be inevitable that they encounter people who were ready to add insult to their injury. Nonetheless, those who used to dislike or have animosity toward
