Chapter 304 Letting Him Off

As Rachael Lang listened to her husband’s changing tone, she instantly grasped the situation. Despite the ups and downs of their many years of marriage, the level of understanding and unspoken communication between them was still intact.

She turned and angrily scolded Johnathan Swann, looking like she couldn’t believe his recklessness.

“John, you are such a foolish child. How could you do this? It’s bad enough that you’re overthinking things, but you went as far as harming your sister, Kathy, as well. She is your sister, and we’re family. How could you do this?” rebuked Rachael incredulously.

Rachael sternly warned Johnathan,” I’m telling you now, I won’t tolerate this incident today. You owe your sister an explanation!”

This reprimand even made Paxton Duncan, who was standing nearby, feel uncomfortable. He seemed to understand why Catherine Swann always had that icy and distant demeanor in order to keep everyone at arm’s length.

Dealing with a family like this would be strange if she weren’t so distant. They would be all smiles when they needed something, addressing each other as family.

However, in contrast, when there was no need, they wished the other person would disappear immediately, and they were experts at placing blame. It was truly sickening.

After Rachael finished scolding Johnathan, she went on to appease Catherine. Although she secretly wished she could strangle Catherine, she had to lower her pride to please Catherine for the sake of her beloved son.

“Kathy, I know your younger brother made a mistake this time, but this is a family matter. There’s no need to take it to court, right?”

“Don’t worry; after this incident, I will definitely teach Johnathan a lesson so that he won’t dare to repeat such actions!” claimed Rachael.

In the face of Rachael’s attempts to please her, Catherine didn’t even glance at her. She stared at her phone throughout and completely ignored her. Rachael trembled with anger at the moment as she noticed Catherine didn’t bother about her.

She would have charged up and given Catherine a piece of her mind if it weren’t for Branden Duncan being present. As Rachael was unable to confront Catherine directly, she pretended to look helpless as she turned to Branden.
