Chapter 235

Chapter 235

Back in the day, the head of the orphanage was kind. But now, I find myself shivering at the thought of her. How twisted must one's soul be to ruthlessly turn against all the pregnant girls under her care? Just then, Kate pulled up her car right in front of us, stepping out to lock eyes with me. "What are you doing here? Weren't you locked up by Max?"

"Why can't I be here? Richard is my brother," I said, knowing this would please Richard.

Kate, always looking to pick a fight, retorted, "You're like a bad penny, always turning up. I tried teaming up with Claude, and there you were. Now I'm trying to work with Richard, and here you are again."

"What are you and Richard planning to work on?" I asked, feigning innocence and turning to Richard with a look of surprise. "Richard, Kate's up to no good. Are you planning to let her harm those girls at the orphanage?" I laid out the stark truth.

Richard adjusted his spectacles, "It's just a small collaboration with the Goodwin family. All I want is for you to come back to me, and I promise no harm will come to the girls. I'll even take you to see them, to convince them not to..."

I couldn't help but smile, "So, you want me back just to persuade them to give up their babies? Or have you found a new way to make an example out of me?"

My voice was laced with mock distress.

"I promise they won't be hurt," Richard said, perhaps a bit moved, waving off the bystanders to give us some privacy.

Kate, catching the mood, whispered as she passed by Richard, "Found those girls."
