Chapter 149

“Okay.”

Katherine felt zero attraction toward Sean–in fact, she despised him. But Scott had threatened suicide to force her into this meeting.

She couldn’t fathom why an elite family like the Seans would pursue her, even sending a formal proposal through Scott.

Just imagining being entangled with someone like Sean made Katherine’s head throb.

In the car, Jacob wrestled with his own fears.

Last time at the kindergarten entrance, Sean had tried to grab him but got stopped. Since then, he’d often spotted shady figures lurking nearby.

He never expected Sean to hold such a grudge.

He had to find a way to neutralize him, or he’d end up in that monster’s claws.

“Aunt Katherine, will you marry Uncle Sean?”

Jacob blurted out as they neared the kindergarten gates.

Katherine was sipping water and nearly choked.

“Absolutely not!

He’s a total creep. I’d never marry him.”

Jacob sighed in relief.

“Good. I’m here. Bye.”

Katherine watched Jacob dart off after getting out of the car, lost in thought.

What did he mean by that?

Before she could figure it out, her phone rang. It was Sean.
