Chapter 403 Grudge
Kathleen was stunned.
Kelly said, “Kathleen, the Hoover family are ruthless. You need to be careful.”
“I will,” Kathleen replied.
“Trevor is actually not that big of a concern. My grandma is the one you need to be wary of. That woman has a very twisted
mind,” Kelly reminded.
“Okay. Thank you for your reminder.” Kathleen nodded.
Kelly flushed. “Perhaps I should have told you all these things earlier.”
Kathleen fell into a daze.
“I knew of your existence for a long time. When I was very little, I overheard my grandma talking on the phone, and she
mentioned you as well as your mother. Since then, I was made aware that your mother is my grandpa’s ex-girlfriend, and she
was at that time pregnant.”
“Do you know who Old Mrs. Hoover was talking to?” Kathleen asked.
Kelly shook her head. “I don’t.”
“All right. I got it. I’ll look for you if I have any more doubts.” Kathleen’s expression was calm.
“Okay.” Kelly nodded.
Kathleen turned around and left.
She leaned against the wall while wearing a poker face.
She grew more confident that her mother’s disappearance must have had something to do with the Hoover family.
Since Old Mrs. Hoover is so cruel, I shall not show her any mercy in the future!
Meanwhile, at the Yoeger residence, Yareli found Zachary.
“Uncle Zachary, are you really planning to just hand over the company and this house to an outsider?”
Zachary was drinking alcohol at that moment. He had not left the house in the past few days.
“Do you truly think that’s what I want? But what else can I do now?” he said.
After all, Frances had already made her will, and they were rendered incapable of further actions.
“You really can’t think of any method?” Yareli questioned him in a meaningful tone.
He gazed emotionlessly at her. “Why? Do you have an idea?”
“Although I cannot resurrect Grandma to amend her will...” Yareli sneered. “I have a way to re-seize Yoeger Group.”
“How do you intend to do that?” Zachary arched his brow.
“Someone is offering capital to help us purchase Yoeger Group’s shares in secret. However, she has a condition. If we can help
achieve her goal successfully, she agrees to gift us those shares upon completing the task,” Yareli explained.
He frowned. “Really?”
“I think you already know that Yoeger Group has been progressing very well under Charles’ leadership in the past few years. It
will be such a waste for us to give the corporation up just like that. Merely relying on the feeble amount of money from the
family’s trust fund for a living will not be sufficient,” Yareli said coldly.
“I’m aware of all those things even without you pointing them out,” Zachary replied impatiently.
“In that case, shouldn’t you begin taking some actions instead of sitting here and drinking alcohol by yourself?” Yareli’s eyes
radiated a chilly aura.
He furrowed his brows. “Who is that person? What does she want us to help her with?”
“You are not a stranger to this person. She had provided us with plenty of assistance previously. You will know her identity once I
tell you her goal,” Yareli said in a significant tone.
“What’s her goal then?” Zachary asked curiously.
“She wants Kathleen dead.” A hint of murderous intent flashed across Yareli’s eyes.
What?
Zachary straightened himself on the chair and placed down his wine glass. “Old Mrs. Hoover looked for you again?”
“Yes.” She nodded.
His face darkened. “Do you think it is easy to kill Kathleen Johnson? Putting aside the fact that she has acquired abilities to
protect herself now, she’s also safeguarded by Charles and Samuel. We can do her no harm.”
“Who says we can do her no harm?” She sneered. “If we make a direct move on her, Samuel and Charles will certainly know we
are the culprits.”
“Then, how are you going to accomplish the task given to you by Old Mrs. Hoover?” he asked curiously.
Yareli grinned sinisterly. “Isn’t this easy? Who are the people Kathleen cares for the most?”
“It must be her two children,” Zachary answered.
He understood Yareli’s intention after the words left his mouth.
“However, the problem is, how do you plan to seize them?” He frowned. “If you lay a finger on those two kids, Kathleen will not
let you go. Not to mention having to face Samuel’s wrath as well.”
She scoffed, “Ha. I already told you we cannot be so obvious in executing the plan.”
“What other methods do you have in mind?” Zachary was eager to know.
“I already bribed a servant from the Macari family. You can rest assured as this person would never betray us, and he will help us
smuggle the children out. We don’t have to deal with them. We just have to inform Kathleen where the kids are held captive and
wait for her to rescue them.”
“What happens next?” Zachary was baffled.
“Then, I will bomb her and her b*stards into pieces. Haha!” Yareli laughed ominously.
I can’t wait for this delightful occasion to take place!
Zachary wore a deep frown.
Why do I feel like the hatred Yareli harbors toward Kathleen and her children is unusual?
“Aren’t you still going to invite trouble for yourself by doing this?” He was caught in perplexity.
“Uncle Zachary, you need to be more ruthless to become an accomplished man. Abandoning all doubts is the key to achieving
great success.” She paused briefly before adding, “Have you made up your mind?”
Zachary knitted his brows, seemingly in hesitance.
Yareli looked at him disdainfully. “You are destined to stay an ordinary man for life, after all.”
He bellowed in anger, “What did you say?”
“When will you be successful with your timid personality? Since you’re not participating in this plan, I’ll do it myself. The company
will be mine when I triumph in the future!” Yareli uttered derisively.
With that, she turned on her heels and left.
Yareli had arrived at the mansion’s entrance when Zachary caught up with her. “Let Old Mrs. Hoover know that I agree to her
request.”
“That’s the right attitude. There will be much more riches and luxuries for you to enjoy in the future.” Yareli smirked.
Zachary regarded her with a meaningful look.
He could not shake off the feeling that Yareli was different from before.
After Yareli left the mansion, she immediately contacted Old Mrs. Hoover upon getting into the car.
“Old Mrs. Hoover, everything is now well-arranged. I’ve convinced Zachary. We can push all the blame to him in the future
without having to shoulder any responsibilities ourselves.”
“Good. Very good. You’ve done well, Yareli.” An old woman’s deep and menacing voice sounded from the speaker.
“Thank you for your compliments, Old Mrs. Hoover.” Yareli smiled faintly. “What about our previous agreement?”
“I’ve already instructed someone to send the item to you. I’ll pass the other half to you upon the fulfillment of this job,” Old Mrs.
Hoover replied coldly.
“All right!” Yareli was overjoyed. “I’ll go back and check out that item then.”
“I will make sure your hard work is well-appreciated if you carry out your duty with diligence.”
“Okay. I got it.” Yareli nodded.
Old Mrs. Hoover hung up the call afterward.
Yareli curled her lips.
I can finally kill Kathleen. I’ve been waiting too long for this day to come.
At that thought, she caressed her face. I will never forget this grudge.
