Chapter 2418

Observing Katelyns cautious approach, Lindsay offered a disarming smile and struck up a conversation.

Katelyn, how Long have you been with the Clarks? she asked, her voice dripping with feigned innocence, as if she were merely making conversation.

Katelyn fidgeted slightly, her voice nervous.

Miss Wheeler, Ive been with the Clark family for five years.

Lindsay studied her with a calm but piercing gaze.

And in those five years, were you always caring for Lucia? Yes, Miss Wheeler, Katelyn replied quickly.

I was with her the entire time.

Lindsay tilted her head slightly, her expression unreadable.

And now that youre working for me, how are you finding the adjustment? Katelyn hesitated, her words catching briefly.

Im… adjusting well, Miss Wheeler, she said softly.

Lindsay reached for a box on the table, pulling out a gleaming diamond bracelet. She held it out toward Katelyn, letting the Light catch the stones as she spoke with an understated warning in her tone.
