All Too Late

Chapter 484 A Favorable Outcome

Theodore stroked his ruined beard and grinned helplessly. “I knew I couldn’t hide it from you.”

Kathleen looked at him impassively.

“You want to work with me?” Theodore was quite direct.

Kathleen nodded in response.

“You don’t mind that I’d shot you and captured your daughter in the past?” Theodore seemed surprised.

“Of course I do,” Kathleen said flatly. “But, right now, I need to work with you.”

Theodore narrowed his eyes. “You learn quickly.”

“But I need to know your motives,” she added coldly, “and what you’re expecting.”

Theodore’s gaze darkened. “Simple. I want to avenge my son!”

“The one they said was pushed off the cliff by you?” Kathleen knitted her brows.

“Even a vicious tiger will not eat its cubs.” There was a cold glint in his cloudy eyes. “I didn’t kill my son. Trevor did!”

“Why?” Kathleen was shocked.

“Why do you think? My son was the heir to the Hoover family. He would inherit the family assets,” Theodore exclaimed angrily. “He was a frail kid, to begin with. Yet, Trevor pushed him off a cliff. All these years, I never had the chance to come to Fairlake to end him. Now, he thinks I’m dead. His attention is on all of you now.”

“Ha!” Kathleen sneered. “So that’s your plan. In other words, you’re afraid that Trevor might find you here.”

Theodore was speechless.

Kathleen tossed the man’s fake beard on the table.

“What do you want?” Theodore asked in return.

“As I said, I want to work with you,” she replied calmly. “Craft a disguise for me. Tomorrow, I’m going to infiltrate the Hoover residence and rescue my son!”

Disguise?

“Who do you want to disguise as?” Theodore frowned.

Kathleen took out her phone and showed him a photo. “Here.”

Theodore was surprised. “Are you sure?”

“It’s not a problem for you, is it?” Kathleen questioned him, her face void of emotion.

Theodore had the habit of reaching out to stroke his beard.
