Chapter 187 Can’t You Play Another Trick

Johnathan didn’t understand. The whole thing was so clear. Catherine also had admitted it. She should just be punished. He couldn’t understand what on earth others were thinking.

Seeing that Johnathan was about to sabotage their plan, Rachael tugged at his sleeve secretly. Johnathan had to restrain himself reluctantly, waiting for Donna to do him justice.

Donna looked at Catherine with a grave face. “Since you admitted hitting Johnathan, you were wrong then. Johnathan is your brother. Isn’t it inappropriate for you to treat him this way?”

Then, her fierce eyes exuded an air of disgruntlement. “You’re a poor child anyway. You were not properly raised in the countryside before. Vicente took you back out of kindness. I also heard that he had handed the Swanns’ assets to you to make it up to you, right?”

Catherine didn’t make any response. Donna just continued talking. “Vicente loved you. I can get it, but this isn’t good for you!”

What she said was nothing but criticism of Catherine. Even Audrey couldn’t stand it after hearing that. “Grandma…”

Donna heard her voice and immediately raised her head to dart a steely glance at Audrey. “Audrey, I heard you didn’t live at home these two years. Did you forget how to behave yourself, too?”

Audrey stiffened, and her face turned pale at once. She didn’t expect Donna to disclose the fact that she had been expelled from the Swanns in public.

Audrey stood still in silence. No one noticed that Catherine’s poker face had hardened at that moment. She grabbed Audrey’s hand and pulled the latter behind.

Her action didn’t escape Donna’s eyes. It was just that Donna didn’t care about it. Donna used to be a teacher. In her eyes, these two girls were relatively easy to deal with.

She didn’t know why Rachael would lose to them and return to turn to her for help. Rachael even begged Enzo to get Adrien Lang, her brother, to deal with Catherine.

Donna believed she could handle Catherine easily. There was no need to get Adrien involved. Donna gave an amiable smile, her eyes filled with gloominess. “Korbin, come here. I have something to tell you today.

Korbin came over and replied to Donna rather respectfully, “Mom, please say it!”

Donna was satisfied with Korbin’s obedience and nodded approvingly. ‘ Yeah!”

“Korbin, I know you’re busy and have no time to handle family affairs. It’s also filial of you to follow your father’s last will. But in my eyes, Vicente merely wanted to make it up to Catherine this way. She’s too young to have so many fortunes. It’s actually bad for her. Look what she has just done. She has slapped her brother in public. Who knows what else she will do in the future?

“I may as well decide for you today. I suggest transferring all of Catherine’s shares to you. She’s your daughter. She will have a bright future ahead. She doesn’t need to carry such a heavy burden at this young age.”

After saying that, Donna also asked for Korbin’s opinion.

“Korbin, what do you think?”

Korbin put on a helpless look. “I failed to look after my family well. I’ll take your advice then!” “Great!” Donna said smilingly. She loved it when she got to be the boss.

After getting the response from Korbin, Donna shifted her gaze to Catherine. Her loving eyes had turned extremely stern and even a bit intimidating.

“Catherine, do you agree to my proposal? Don’t worry about the money. You’re the daughter of the Swanns. The wealth you can have is definitely beyond your imagination. The Swann Corporation is such a big company. And you don’t know how to run a business at all. You’d better return them to your father. He can create more fortune for you and your siblings so that your future can be secured!”

“Good girl, listen to me. I’m doing this for your own good.”

It was then that Catherine realized why they made her come to the Langs to celebrate Donna’s birthday. It turned out that they just wanted to take back the shares of the Swann Corporation from her.

This was so ridiculous!

Donna must have treated Catherine as an ignorant and gullible girl. Korbin played the same trick on her when she just came back to the Swanns.

Now, Donna was doing it again. These people had no creativity at all. Catherine strode aside, sat down, and crossed her legs lazily, giving off an arrogant and dominant air.

She slightly raised her head to look at Donna with arched brows. A hint of piercing cold flashed across her eyes. She said briefly in a steely voice, “No way!

“Ask the one who gave me the shares to take them back!”

Catherine glanced at all the people present with a faint smile. Donna was stunned. It seemed that she never expected Catherine to defy her boldly in public.

After thinking through what Donna had just said, Donna knitted her brows and glared at her with a gloomy expression.

“Nonsense. Your grandpa is already gone. How can he ask for the shares back from you?” Catherine nodded approvingly. “You’re right. Since he’s gone, no one will take the Swanns’ assets from me!”

“You…” Donna flew into a rage and stood up to stare at her angrily, her eyes full of wrath. “Everybody take a look at this granddaughter of mine. How can she treat her grandma this way?”

As Donna flared up, everyone pointed fingers at Catherine. All of a sudden, Catherine became the target of criticism as if she was an unforgivable sinner. Now that the soft approach couldn’t work, Donna decided to play it hard and then looked at Enzo madly.

“Enzo, you’ve seen what happened. Catherine has been improperly raised in the countryside. I don’t know what to do with her. Look how she treats us. No wonder she dared to beat Johnny so hard.

“If this goes on, she will cause even bigger trouble.” S~ᴇaʀᴄh the ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Hearing that, Enzo’s face turned dark. He usually wouldn’t interfere with this kind of trifle. Now, as it appeared, he believed he had to step in.

Catherine was sitting there leisurely, not caring about other people’s criticism. In her eyes, these people spent so much effort making her attend the party.

They couldn’t give up easily. So, the Langs must have a backup plan. Before she could think it over, the Langs’ plan B showed up.
