All Too Late

Clement grinned. “Ms. Johnson, I haven’t finish my words.”

Kathleen stared at him calmly. “Then what are you waiting for? Just go ahead and talk.”

Clement gritted his teeth in anger and stared at her. “Kathleen, how dare you talk to me like that?”

“Clement, if you have the nerves, raise your hand to me. Let’s see if you can continue staying in Jadeborough,” Kathleen sneered.

“Don’t ever think that the Macari family will support you! You’ve already divorced Samuel. The Macari family will not mess with me because of you,” Clement uttered disdainfully.

Kathleen laughed. “Clement, I’ve been Mrs. Macari for at least three years. What’s more, I’ve been living in the Macari residence for almost ten years. Do you think I will be afraid of you?”

In response to her words, he frowned.

“You are the one who wouldn’t dare to mess with the Macari family instead,” Kathleen said mockingly, “Don’t overestimate yourself. Even though you’re older than Samuel, you’re nothing compared to him.”

Clement glared at her furiously.

Kathleen smirked. “Do you think I’m oppressing you with the Macari family? My brother will not let the Corbyn family off the hook, either. Do you think he’s just a big shot in the entertainment industry? Do you really think that he gains his wealth and force through the show business?”

If they purely took Charles as the boss of the entertainment industry, that would be hilarious.

Clement narrowed his eyes and asked, “What other identity does your brother have?”

Kathleen smiled. “Do you want to know?”

Clement remained silent, but his gaze turned glacial.

“You can find it out yourself. Or you’ll think that I’m fooling you.” Kathleen’s pretty eyes turned frosty.

Anger flashed across the man’s eyes. He grabbed Kathleen’s neck and exclaimed, “Everything you just said was to frighten me. Do you think that I’ll believe you?”

There was no fear in her eyes. She uttered mockingly, “Then do it! What are you waiting for?”
