All Too Late novel Chapter 209

Chapter 209 Life Savior

Jacob narrowed his eyes and shot Kathleen a cold glare. “Ms. Johnson, I know who you are, but you have no right to interrupt during this kind of occasion.”

With a snort, Kathleen said indifferently, “I wasn’t expecting to meet a snob out here today.”

“What did you say?” Jacob eyed her coldly.

“You are a snob,” Kathleen taunted, smirking.

“You!” Jacob gritted his teeth and glared at her furiously.

Tyson was at a loss for words.

Kathleen can really be ruthless when she scolds someone, but I have to admit, it’s really satisfying.

“Ms. Johnson, you look rather familiar.” Aydin raised a brow.

“Mr. Lopez, she’s acted in a movie before. Of course, you’ll find her familiar.” Jacob paused briefly before continuing in a disdainful tone, “Then again, she’s just an actress. There’s nothing impressive about it. If it were in the past, she’ll just be a slave who’s a little more premium.”

Everyone’s expression darkened when they heard his words.

Tyson felt more infuriated.

However, Kathleen merely stared at Jacob icily.

When Jacob was about to continue provoking her, someone spoke up. “Jacob Stewart, watch your words!”

Caleb could be seen walking over with a deathly expression.

“I didn’t say anything wrong,” Jacob argued gloomily. “She just earned a load of money because of a divorce. It’s nothing worth being proud of. She didn’t work for it.”

“Well said.” Kathleen clapped her hands.

Jacob paused, stunned by her response.

The smile on Kathleen’s face was elegant yet icy cold. “You’re right. The fact that the Macari family is so successful today is all thanks to the hard work put in by the different generations, from Old Mr. Macari to Samuel. All three generations were diligent workers. This is a known fact. You, on the other hand, are really something else. In fact, you’re not even worth comparing to them. Though everyone addresses you as the CEO, your mother is the one who has a say in the family. You don’t own a single share. Yet, you have the guts to stand here and insult someone else. Who exactly do you think you are?”

Jacob’s face turned purple with rage.

He wished he could strangle Kathleen to death.

“Ms. Johnson is right!” Tyson nodded vehemently, expressing his agreement. “Apart from being courageous, having a good eye is also a crucial attribute to become a leader of a company. This is what Ms. Johnson has. She chose to let Mr. Macari continue managing the company because she acknowledges his capabilities. Besides, she has also contributed to the construction of Flobury because she gave Mr. Macari the two mines. All of these require good judgment. What about you, Mr. Stewart? What have you done so far? Please enlighten us.”

Jacob’s face was ashen, and he remained silent.

“Oh, I remember it now,” Aydin piped up. “Ms. Johnson, you saved my daughter in Norwal City three months ago, right?”

Kathleen smiled. “I’m glad you remember me, Mr. Lopez?”

“I knew it. No wonder you looked so familiar.” Aydin laughed heartily.

The others were stunned.

“Mr. Lopez, did you two know each other?” Caleb questioned.

“I haven’t seen Ms. Johnson before. But my daughter went to Norwal City for a winter camp three months ago. She stumbled into some foreigners when she was walking on the streets, and they tried to mess with her. Thankfully, a Chanaean lady helped her out. My daughter even took a picture with the lady and sent it to me. It was you, Ms. Johnson. Thank you so much for saving her.” Aydin was overjoyed.

“It’s no trouble at all, Mr. Lopez,” Kathleen responded with a polite smile.

Caleb stared at Kathleen in amazement.

So, she saved Mr. Lopez’s daughter in the past. No wonder she wasn’t worried from the beginning. Looks like she was planning to use this connection long ago. That’s a smart move. She waited for Mr. Lopez to recall the incident instead of bringing it up herself. After all, her motives will be too obvious if she does that, and it’ll make people dislike her. The situation will be different now that Mr. Lopez was the one who mentioned it.

Tyson was all excited.

Is this for real?

The awkward look on Jacob’s face made Tyson extremely pleased.

No wonder Kathleen has been so calm since the beginning. She has a plan all along.

Tyson was so excited that he was at a loss for words.

Wow, we actually depend on Mrs. Macari to salvage the situation.
