Chapter 193
"What are you staring at? I didn't pay so much money just for you to stand there like a backdrop! Get
her out of here! Just beat 'em up if anyone refutes my orders! I don't care if they're dead!" Emma lost
her patience.
She had made a pact with Warden Brown that she would make sure Katherine was sent to his bed
tonight. As a return, the Brown Family would give half of the profit of their most profitable project to the
Rosenburgs.
Despite their opulent facade, the Rosenburg Family was actually a hopeless mess. Jacob ran the
business with integrity as he would rather minimize the profit just to keep his integrity business.
Although the company still formed partnerships with many customers in the long run, the money raked
in was not enough to sustain the expenses of the Rosenburgs.
Every time Emma enjoyed tea with her friends, jealousy grew in her whenever the other party showed
off.
Now that she had the opportunity to shore her family up to the top echelon, how could she possibly let
it slip through her fingers?
The project offered by the Brown Family worthed a staggering of billions of dollars!
The duo exchanged looks before removing their coats and tossed them onto the ground. "Sorry,
granny. I'm afraid we can't execute your orders. We'll quit our job and explain everything to Mr.
Rosenburg."
They then made themselves scarce.

It was not a joking matter as their legs trembled at the sheer sight of Joaquin. If they got into a fight,
even ten of them would stand no chance against him. Furthermore, they were not deaf; although
Emma was oblivious of who Joaquin gave a call to, the voice sounded familiar to them.
They went to war back then, hence they were very familiar with Arthur's voice.
Staring at the running figures, Emma was so livid that her vision went pitch-black and her body teetered
as she almost fell into a swoon.
Katherine did not even spare the old woman a glance. Instead, she faced the two bodyguards who
already ran to the door. "Come back here and take her with you. This is not a dumping ground. We
don't accept trash here."
How could they say 'no' to her? They returned meekly and grabbed Emma to haul her out of the house.
"Let go of me! Let me go! Katherine Cornell, how dare you?! I'm your grandmother. Your biological
grandmother! That old woman is up to no good. She's lying to you!" she roared while the men dragged
her out.
To her dismay, Katherine straight up closed the door and her voice could not be heard. Once the 'trash'
was disposed of, Katherine looked at Jennifer with crossed arms. "Any explanations of what's going on
around here? Hmm?"
Feeling guilty, Jennifer gazed at Joaquin with pleading eyes.
However, he was helpless too. Now that Katherine was genuinely angry, he touched his nose and said,
"Grandma, did something happen between Mom and Kathy back then? Why don't you tell us about it?"
Knowing that she could not keep them in the dark any longer, she sighed before recounting everything
that had happened between Elsie and Joshua to Katherine honestly, "Kathy, it's not that I didn't wanna
tell you. I thought I won't have anything to do with the Rosenburg Family back then. That's why! And I
never expected them to come up to our doorstep. That old hag is one shameless woman!"
"True. She is so brazen to have the guts to bully you!" Tiara nodded vigorously while putting in good
words.
"Yeah. Kathy, that shameless old hag. She scolded me!" Keith was vexed as well.
Katherine glanced at him. "Why are you here? Is there nothing to do at school? Didn't you promise me
that you'll study hard?"
"Kathy, I already miss you. And Grandma too." He hugged Jennifer's arm in grievance as he stared at
Katherine with puppy eyes.
"You'll get it from me once we return home." Her mind was in a mess, for she was aware that she could
not be Joshua's daughter.
There was one thing Jennifer did not lie to Emma—Katherine's birthdate. In other words, Elsie was
pregnant with another man's baby after leaving Joshua.
The past hurt Katherine's head. "Grandma, do you know who my mother went out with after that?"
Jennifer shook her head with certainty. "She married your father not long after she left Kyoland. Then,
we had you."
Seeing how assured Jennifer was, Katherine figured that something had happened to her mother after
that, which Jennifer did not know of. Therefore, she stopped the inquiry.
Since many things at home were ruined because of Emma, Katherine phoned Savannah to do

In the meantime, the two bodyguards were dragging Emma along down the stairs. Her mouth did not
stop running in rage even after she entered the car. "What are you guys doing? Let me back in! If I
don't take Katherine with me, I won't—"
Before she could finish her words, her phone rang. The ire in her appeased once she realized that it
was her son calling.
Once the call was connected, Jacob's incensed voice resounded. "Just when are you going to stop
causing trouble? Isn't it enough to have Joshua dead? Are you going to bring the whole family down
before you stop?! Why did you offend Katherine? You even lost Mr. Walton's favor! And we're doomed
now! Are you happy, huh?!"
His reproval put her into a trance as it took her a while to respond, "W-What did you say? What do you
mean by we're doomed now? Jacob, are you joking? Why would we be done for? We have Mr. Walton
with us! And Joshua has regained consciousness. Our family will only get better and become the true
topdog. We'll—"
"Stop daydreaming already! Do you think Joshua will help you? Don't you know why he took the shot
for Mr. Walton back then? It's because he lost the will to live! If it wasn't for you, if you didn't separate
him from Diana and forced him to marry Mr. Walton's daughter, he wouldn't have done that. Mr. Walton
has contacted me saying that he'll never protect our family anymore. Oh, and what about the Brown
Family? They can't even fend for themselves! Once we get into trouble, they'll be the first to fall! You're
on your own now!" He did not want to talk to her any longer as he terminated the call after yapping.
Meanwhile, she sat right there with a pallid expression as though her strength was drained out.
Are we really doomed? But why?
