Chapter 405 A Parent?

In the face of Catherine’s explanation, Rachael couldn’t hear a word. She scolded Catherine with fury, asserting her authority as Korbin’s wife.

“Catherine, how dare you try to explain yourself? The servants have already made it clear that it’s your fault your father fell ill!”

Catherine looked at her askance, adopting an air of superiority as if she couldn’t care less about her.

“If you don’t believe me, why bother explaining further?”

Rachael was on the verge of exasperation, facing Catherine’s arrogance. She felt helpless, unable to hurt Catherine no matter what she did.

This feeling of powerlessness was what angered her the most. Knowing that Catherine cared about Audrey, Rachael decided to hit Catherine where it would hurt the most through Audrey.

“Catherine, calling you a jinx is spot on. Your influence on your sister has brought nothing but misfortune. A daughter like this isn’t worth having!

“Remember this!” Rachael pointed her finger menacingly at Catherine. She had dropped the facade of a high and mighty lady. “It’s because of you that Audrey was kicked out of this house by her parents. Do you understand?”

Rachael’s threats made Catherine quietly chuckle. With a sly twinkle in her eyes, Catherine watched Rachael with an amused smile.

“Is that so? Do you plan to pin this accusation on me forcibly? But I have a different perspective from the norm. In my eyes, some people, despite having children, don’t deserve to be parents…

“Just left home? Hmph, Rachael, have you forgotten whose name the properties you’re living in are registered under now?”

All of the Swanns’ assets now belonged to Catherine. Originally, the Swanns’ had been in her father’s name. After his passing, he had left all the assets to Catherine, including this house.
