Chapter 786
Katrina was stunned.
Barbara didn’t show any expression. “Go ahead, I don’t care anymore. If you want to threaten me, go ahead.”
She turned around. “I don’t know if the Chases will even care about your threat.”
Barbara walked out.
Maisie turned to look at them and let Kennedy drive them away. Katrina gnashed her teeth. “Don’t you dare leave!”
Barbara stood with her back against the railing in the corridor and looked out the window.
Maisie walked toward her. “It’d probably affect your family quite badly if it were to be exposed, huh?”
She remembered that Barbara had mentioned her father was going to step back, and her uncle would take over
when that happened.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe video that Katrina had had could threaten the secret of the Chases. If the secret didn’t exist, the Chases would
simply ignore her.
Maisie had always been curious as to why Katrina kept going against Barbara and framing her.
After witnessing their exchange today, she finally understood that Katrina wasn’t only focused on Barbara-it was
the entire Chase family she was after.
Barbara looked down and smiled. “My father was just trying to make sure that my reputation wouldn’t be
tarnished.”
Maisie understood.
Barbara hadn’t deliberately killed anyone. Even if someone wanted to investigate the family, was Barbara wrong to
defend herself? That being said, her reputation would still be affected. If someone insisted on blowing this up,
people who didn’t know the full story would condemn the Chases once it reached the Internet.
Her father stepping back and her uncle taking over would have to wait until the fiasco blew over.
“Thanks for speaking up for me.” Barbara looked toward Maisie. Maisie stopped in front of the window.” Don’t
worry about it. I just can’t stand when people try to twist the truth because I was a
victim of that once.’ Her stepmother, Leila, had murdered her aunt, Yanis, and tried to pin it on her.
Everyone had censured her online when that happened. No one wanted to be labeled a ‘killer’, Even though
Barbara had killed Eric, the one who had assaulted her, she was in danger. If she hadn’t grabbed the knife, she
would have lost her innocence or been the one stabbed to death.
After Barbara left, Maisie called Quincy.
Quincy looked up at Nolan when he saw that Maisie was the one calling. “Mr. Goldmann, your wife…”
Nolan squinted and stretched his hand, then Quincy passed the phone to him.
He put it to his ear, but Maisie didn’t know that Nolan was the one who answered, ” Quincy, I need a favor. Send
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsomeone to keep an eye on Katrina and report back to me if she tries anything.”
“You’re getting better at ordering Quincy around, Zee.”
Maisie was surprised.
She looked at her phone.
‘Isn’t that Nolan’s voice? Why did Quincy hand the phone over to him?’ She smiled. “You’re my man. Can’t I order
your people around?”
Nolan leaned back on the chair. “Yes, but it’s easier to order your man around instead.”
Quincy’s lips twitched. What had he done to have to endure this lovey-dovey scene?
Maisie chuckled. “Alright, enough. Can you put Quincy on the line, please?” Nolan handed the phone back to
Quincy, who put it to his ear and smiled. “Ms.
Vanderbilt, how may I be of help? Sure, I’ll send someone right away, Alright, I’ll take note.”
After the call ended, Quincy noticed a sharp glare on his back, which made him shudder. “Mr. Goldmann, Ms.
Vanderbilt,
Nolan closed the file he was holding. “It’s been a while already. You should change the way you address her.”
