Chapter 191 Favor

This plot twist caught everyone off guard. After all, they tried every possible means to send Catherine, the jinx, to the army, not Johnathan, the precious little darling of the Swanns.

Everyone was freaking out, but Catherine remained calm as ever. She treated it as a hilarious comedy- drama to pass the time. Johnathan became agitated and immediately retorted loudly, “No, I will not go!”

Adrien gave him a cold stare and said sternly, “I’m afraid you have no say in this!” Rachael knew her son’s temperament well and quickly stopped Johnathan while asking for her mother’s help.

Donna loved her grandson too much to watch Johnathan suffer like that. She urgently told Adrien, “Adrien, let’s discuss this later. Johnathan is still young.”

The astute Donna had grasped the situation. There was a glimmer of intelligence in her eyes. “No wonder my clever daughter came back to seek my help. It seems that the jinx thrown into the countryside by the Swanns was challenging to deal with.

“With a few words, she turned everything upside down,” she said inwardly. She gave a fake smile and looked at everyone.

“Enough, let’s not talk about this now. Today is my birthday banquet, so everyone has to listen to me. The dishes are getting cold. Let’s start eating!”

Upon seeing Donna take charge of the situation, the crowd took the initiative to step back. Donna suddenly retreated without intending to target Catherine again because she realized that she had underestimated Catherine. “This girl is much more shrewd than I had imagined,” she thought.

In the eyes of Donna, the reason why Catherine didn’t speak up and perform well before must be because she was pretending to be a weakling but was secretly strong.

“If we continue to persist, judging from the current situation, it is possible that we may end up as the losers. Might as well leave it as it is for now and make alternative plans later on,” she said inwardly.

Since Donna had made a decision, Rachael couldn’t push her anymore. Although she was angry inside and felt like Catherine had escaped, she could only accept it temporarily to protect Johnathan.

Everyone spread out and took their seats. The birthday banquet officially began. Audrey was concerned about the impact on Catherine. In her view, if she were the one being targeted, she would probably hide away crying and not have the appetite to eat anything.

“Kathy, I know you’ve been wronged. It’s all because of Johnathan being such a scoundrel. Luckily, you diffused the crisis smartly.
