Chapter 124
Could it be her? Then again, how could she possibly be an orphan?
Colin let go of Katie, becoming more doubtful.
Katie noticed his unusual behavior and asked with confusion, “Colin, what’s wrong?”
“Do you have a photo of her?”
“She was trending online not long ago, and there should be photos of her online. Don’t you know?”
Colin shook his head, as he was not one to pay attention to online gossip. However, the fact that Katie mentioned something completely unheard of in Svelton could only mean the news was suppressed due to an order from an influential family.
Could it be the Lawson family?
If yes, why would the Lawson family suppress news about this woman in Svelton?
His doubts and speculations deepened.
Katie sat on the sofa, pulled out her phone angrily, and scrolled through the photos of Sheena that had been taken secretly. Then, she handed the phone to Colin.
“Colin, you have to help me. Once this bitch is gone, no one will compete with me for Howard…
Katie kept on talking, but Colin was captivated by the photos on her phone and his emotions were running high.
“Colin? Are you listening?” Katie’s angry shout snapped him out of his trance.
“So, you just want her dead?”
“Yes!” Katie was determined.
Colin knocked her on the head, his face full of frustration. “I really don’t know what to do with you! Anyway, the more you target her, the more you’re pushing Howard away with your own hands!”
“Colin, what do you mean?” Katie dodged his hand, clearly annoyed.
Colin chuckled. “The one you’re trying to kill is his only younger sister. Do you think he won’t distance himself from you or start to dislike you?”
“What? His sister?” Katie was utterly shocked.
Sheena was actually Howard’s sister?! How could that be possible?
“Wasn’t the Lawson family’s heiress announced dead six years ago? Although I haven’t seen her, I’ve checked Sheena’s background. She was clearly an orphan!”
Colin sighed, explaining, “Don’t you know how powerful the Lawson family is? How could you
possibly find out if they don’t want anyone to find out? As for why the Lawson family did this, maybe it was to protect her.”
In just a few minutes, Colin roughly pieced everything together.
Katie froze. She was so shocked that it made her speechless.
After a while. Colin looked at the room she had turned into a mess and advised her, “If you still want to maintain this engagement with Howard, stop thinking about killing her. During this time, stay at home and think about how to apologize to her.”
Then, he patted Katie’s shoulder and left her room.
Six years ago, Sheena had disappeared, and when the Lawson family announced her death, he had been devastated. Although his parents had arranged numerous upper–class socialites for him, he could not forget her.
Now that he knew she was still alive and was in Farlem, he wished he could grow wings and fly to her side immediately.
After Colin left, Katie remained stunned, finally understanding all of her doubts from before. Why Sheena and Howard had dinner together in his office, why Howard treated Sheena so gently, why Sheena had quickly risen to the position of a manager in Angle Group, and so on. If that were the case, she would have almost hurt her future sister–in–law!
