“Don’t sleep yet. Put ice on your face before going to sleep. Your face is so red and swollen. Even if you fall asleep, I will put ice on you, which will affect your rest.”
Pedro knew that Kathryn was embarrassed. He kissed her red and swollen face and said distressingly, “I am yours, and I will always be yours. I just enjoyed it for a while, and now I’m embarrassed.”
“Who said I was embarrassed? I’m very thick-skinned. I’m not embarrassed. You also said that you are mine. What’s wrong with me kissing you? Even if I sleep with you, you can’t resist me.”
Kathryn refused to admit that she was embarrassed.
Pedro took some ice and applied it to her face. He smiled as he listened to her words, “You are welcome to sleep with me anytime, but it would be better if you could inform me in advance so that I can clean up before you enjoy it.”
Kathryn said, “I’ll have to stay away from you next time. Both sides of my face are swollen.” Kathryn was silent for a moment, then said, “I was the one who betrayed Mom first. She has a reason to be angry. Even though I think I did the right thing, to her, it was a betrayal. If it wasn’t for me and it was Shiloh, her conspiracy plan might have been half successful. So, if she wants to teach me a lesson, I’ll let her do it, just as long as she doesn’t kill me.
Apart from other things, she is no different from an ordinary mother. She can be extremely ruthless to other people’s children and kill them without blinking an eye, but she always loves her own children. She said that if I were not her biological daughter, I would not have seen the sun rise today.”
Kathryn looked out the window and added, “There is no sun today. I still haven’t seen the sun rise today. I told my mom not to hit me in the face next time she hits me.”
“And later!”
Pedro cried out softly.
Seeing her beaten this time, Pedro felt so heartbroken that he almost had a conflict with Clarissa because of her.
Clarissa insisted that Pedro leave, and he had no choice but to endure it to avoid a real conflict with her.
Kathryn smiled and said, “Not only will there be a next time, but there may be countless times. As long as I know her conspiracy, I can’t just do nothing, unless she hides it from me.”
After a pause, she looked at Pedro and said, “Now that you are by my side, it is difficult for her to hide what she did from me. She just doesn’t hit me in the face. If she cripples me, I won’t be able to marry a son-in-law, and I won’t be able to give birth to a daughter, so there will be no successor, and that’s not what she wants to see.”
She was also his woman!
Kathryn smiled and didn’t respond.
The atmosphere in Jensburg was quite tense, and Elora, who was on a business trip far away in Duatemalo City, Province G, had just finished dealing with the matters at hand.
She was so tired that she had to stop working.
During this business trip, she was more tired than when she was in the company.
