Now she and Dale were bound as one, and separating wouldn't be easy. Katherine had to endure for the sake of the Santos family. However, this didn't mean she would continue to tolerate everything without end. If Dale made any further missteps, she wouldn't tolerate it. At worst, she would sacrifice everything, personally apologize to her brother, and assist the Santos Group in rising to prominence through her own means.
At this moment, Katherine looked at Valerie, who was growing drowsy, and gently patted her. "You should get some rest. I can keep an eye on the baby."
As a mother, she needed her rest. She lay down and fell asleep almost instantly, trusting that with Katherine beside her, she had nothing to worry about.
Katherine watched the baby, increasingly charmed by the sight. The baby was indeed adorable, a perfect reflection of Valerie. Her focus was entirely on the baby, and she didn't notice a figure in a white coat silently entering the room behind her. By the time she heard the footsteps and turned around, a handkerchief was pressed over her mouth, and she lost consciousness.
The man in the white coat, confirming that Katherine was unconscious, immediately wheeled over a cab trolley filled with medicines. He opened the cab at the bottom, just the right size to fit a person, and placed Katherine inside before locking the door. After securing everything, he sighed with relief, glanced at Valerie on the bed, and quietly left the room.
A bodyguard stationed by the door saw him and immediately stopped him. "What are you doing? I've never seen you before."
The man in the white coat was startled, his nerves on edge. He cleared his throat and said, "I'm here to check on the baby and see the mother's condition."
The bodyguard looked at the trolley filled with medicines, and the man was instantly terrified, afraid that he could see through him. At that moment, a loud thud came from the cab.
The bodyguard eyed him suspiciously. "What's that noise?"
"Oh, that was me. I accidentally kicked the cupboard," the man said, kicking the cab to assure the bodyguard.
The bodyguard, satisfied, waved him off. "Alright, you can go."
The man hurriedly pushed the cart away, his nervousness causing him to fumble with it. The cart seemed to resist his efforts, and the bodyguard helped him. "I didn't realize this trolley was so heavy!"
The man in the white coat nodded repeatedly, sweating profusely. He didn't dare to say anything and quickly pushed the cart away.
"Who would have thought that a trolley filled with medicines could be so heavy? This job is certainly not for just anyone! I guess we have it easy. Just keep an eye on the baby and Mrs. Grant and we don't need to worry about anything else," the bodyguard remarked.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
The man in the white coat felt a chill run down his spine. He was relieved that they hadn't pried further. Otherwise, he would have been at a loss for what to do.
Meanwhile, at a factory on the outskirts of town, Maliah and Dale were anxiously waiting. Dale asked, "Are you sure everything will go smoothly? If anything goes wrong, both of us could end up in jail."
As an acclaimed actor, if exposed,
his career would be in jeopardy, and
he could face imprisonment.
Though the Santos family's
el
influence might not match the, Anderson family's, Valerie was another matter. She had the power tecrush him effortlessly if she chose to. Dale was a little afraid.
Maliah reassured him, "Don't worry, I've got this covered. Besides, I've sent a professional this time, and it will be done discreetly and efficiently. When the deed is done, don't forget about me!"
The Anderson family had connections both within and outside the law. Maliah had sent capable subordinates to ensure everything went smoothly.
However, this also meant that Dale could have a taste of Katherine earlier than expected. 'I heard this girl is quite conservative. I'm curious how it would all play out,' she wondered, smirking as she imagined the scene.
Dale pinched her chin playfully. "How could I forget you, my little beauty? Once I've taken Katherine down, I'll secure my position in the Santos family, and our issues will be settled. By then, no one will be able to control us. I'll be engaged to
Katherine regardless of hovel.

objections. If she resists, won't
mind making her the center of public attention. Given how her parents are, they'll push her without me needing to step in."
Dale smiled sinisterly, convinced that he had Katherine in his grasp. Having been in the industry for so long, he had mastered the art of humiliation. Moreover, Katherine was a well-bred girl from a rich
family. She would be easy for him to deal with. Dale rubbed his chin in anticipation.
Maliah chuckled and patted him. "Do you want me to do a livestream of it later? Let everyone see how the good girl from the Santos family behaves?" "Naughty!" Dale pinched her chin. "Don't push her too hard. What if she kills herself? She and I are just putting on a show. Just take a video."
"Then don't be too gentle," Maliah teased. She loved Dale's good looks and how he was clinging to her. Especially his eagerness to please made it almost impossible for her to resist. This bootlicker was completely hers and could only submit to her.
