Chapter 675
Vivian opened her mouth and wanted to say something else, but looking at Katherine's expression, Vivian knew Katherine probably did not want to hear it. In the end, Vivian could only sigh and turn around to leave.
After a sleepless night, Katherine walked out with dark circles under her eyes the next morning. However, she immediately bumped into Vivian. Seeing her like this, Katherine could not help but take a deep breath. "Vivian, stop persuading me!"
Vivian patted her back. "Katherine, think about it carefully. This news must not be exposed today. If it is exposed, our family will be in trouble! For the sake of your parents' old age, don't cause trouble anymore. Whether you marry or not has nothing to do with us, but you must not expose yourself."
Vivian took a step back to prevent her from being exposed. It would be easier to explain when the time came.
Her words made Katherine feel very conflicted. Last night, she tossed and turned and could not sleep. She had been thinking about it for half the night. Now that she heard her mother say this early in the morning, she was really uncomfortable.
"Alright, stop talking. Let me think about it," Katherine said in exasperation.
Vivian wanted to say something but hesitated. However, after thinking about it, she decided not to push too hard. Otherwise, if Katherine's temper flared up, the Santos family would be finished!
Vivian had no choice but to push it aside. If this continued, Katherine would definitely break down.
Katherine wanted to walk around to relax and forget about these unpleasant things for the time being. As for how to resolve them, she still had to think about it at length.
She took a deep breath and said nothing. She did not have much of an appetite when she woke up early in the morning and could not eat anything. Katherine walked out of the house and bumped into Louis at the door.
"Louis!"
Louis's car drove in from outside. After getting out of the car, he looked at Katherine. A trace of fatigue flashed across his eyes before he smiled. "You're up so early?"
"Yes, I went out to get some fresh air. Louis, you didn't come back last night. Is the company so busy?" Katherine asked.
Louis sighed. "The company is too busy. Previously, Angel's matter caused a huge commotion. The stock price fell and some partners were lost, but it's all settled now! Don't worry, I'll take care of everything. It's good to go out for a walk. Do you have money? I'll give it to you."
Louis was about to take out the money when Katherine quickly refused. "No, there's no need. I have money. Why are you still treating me like a child?"
Louis smiled and patted her head. "Oh, you've grown up and can help the family. I'm very happy."
Katherine looked at him. "How can I help?"
"Don't you know? The news of you and Dale's official announcement has pulled up a wave of stocks. Only then can our family be saved. The effect of celebrities is indeed different. Ever since you were with him, those business partners saw it and came over. It's not popular for celebrities to bring goods now. This effect is better than any advertisement we do," Louis grinned and said.
Upon hearing his words, Katherine felt upset. She had originally planned to break up with Dale and beat this scumbag to death!
Unexpectedly, Louis thanked her instead. It was also because of this relationship that the Santos family was saved.
If she broke up with Dale, would the company be in danger again?
Looking into Louis's tired eyes, Katherine felt an invisible pressure in her heart.
Louis smiled. "Be careful when you go out. I'll go back and rest first."
"Yes, have a good rest." Katherine forced a smile.
Katherine looked at Louis's back and felt immense pressure.
She did not know what to do. She just wandered around her home and returned an hour later when suddenly, she saw someone at the door. It was Dale.
He was holding a large bouquet of roses in his hand.
Upon seeing Dale, Katherine was instantly furious. "How dare you come over!"
Dale rushed up hurriedly. "Katherine, it's all my fault. Please forgive me. It doesn't matter what you do to me. I just hope you won't ignore me."
Katherine sneered. "I told you not to look for me again. Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
"I know it's all my fault, but don't
worry. I won't do it again. Give me a chance! Even a murderer still has a chance to defend himself. I just made a mistake that all men will make. I hope that you can forgive me. From now on, I'll definitely
follow your lead. Don't worry, won't have any other women! Katherine, it get
wasn't easy for meet
where I am today. You have to know that it takes a lot for a small actor to climb the steps to become the Best Actor. My career and everything about me can't go down. Please, Katherine." Dale pleaded, anxious to express his thoughts.
Dale got down on one knee and raised the red rose. "Katherine, forgive me. Give me one last chance! I know you're sad, and I
regret it. Cregret not expressing my feelings to you earlier and letting Malian take advantage of the situation. I swear, I won't do it again! If something like this happens again in the future, my future will be ruined. The gains won't make up for the losses. How about that?"
Seeing that she was unmoved, Dale took a few steps forward on his knees and hurriedly grabbed Katherine's hand. "I know it's all my fault. I understand that you don't want to forgive me, but give me a chance and see how I perform. If the two of us break up, it will definitely affect the Santos family. It's fine if I'm destroyed, but what about your family?"
Dale looked at Katherine and knew that she could not bear it. After all, the Santos family had already reached this stage. If any losses were caused
by their matter, Katherine would become the target of public criticism.
He felt a chill in his heart. If she agreed to his request, it would be great.
If she did not agree, they would fight to the death.
To be honest, he knew very well what had happened to the Santos family. If Katherine refused to forgive him, he did not mind putting pressure on her again, or even discussing it with the Santos family.
When Katherine heard him say this, she immediately closed her eyes. She thought of Louis's tired back and Vivian's painstaking advice. Sacrificing herself could protect the Santos family. Even if they were married in the future, it was not impossible to treat each other with respect.
Katherine looked down at Dale. "Dale, it's fine if you want me to agree to let you go, but I have a condition!"
Dale was overjoyed. "I'll definitely agree to anything you say!"
"There are three rules. After we get back together, you're not allowed to ask me for any more resources. Our family won't give it to you anymore. You have to rely on yourself," Katherine stated firmly.
"Alright, I agree!" Dale nodded quickly.
In his head, Dale thought that Katherine was not the only rich woman. As long as he agreed, he would think about it later and find resources elsewhere.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
Katherine saw that he agreed readily and continued, "Secondly, if we get married one day, it will also be a contract wedding. There won't be any physical contact!"
"Alright!" Dale agreed through gritted teeth. He would talk about it after they got married. If he wanted to have sex with her, he had plenty of methods.
