Chapter 146 Realization Hit Her

Katherine was actually alive.

She survived. Not even a scratch on her.

How did she pull that off?

How could someone like her get that lucky?

Even the kid got through it without so much as bruise.

Katherine and the kid walked away free and clear, but here I am, covered in injuries.

“You’d better think about how to win Lucas over gain. Your Gavin plans to get him to divorce Katherine as soon as he gets back. Then he’ll arrange your engagement.”

Rachel’s eyes flashed. “Engagement?”

Quincy nodded. “Yes. Gavin wanted this from the start, but Lucas never ended things with Katherine, so plans kept getting delayed. Now he wants to handle it all himself.”

Rachel’s whole face lit up. “So as soon as the divorce goes through, we get engaged?”

“That’s right.”

Rachel nearly bounced out of her seat. “This is perfect. But Lucas is furious with me because of Katherine. What if he refuses?”

Quincy brushed off her worry. “You don’t need stress, Gavin is Lucas’s father. He’ll make it happen.”

Rachel finally let herself smile, like she could breathe again.

Ursula stepped in, voice soft but firm. “Focus on getting better. Once you’ve healed, you can be the stunning bride Lucas deserves. Forget the rest. Katherine can have all the tricks in the

world, but Gavin and his wife will never let her come back. You’re the only daughter-in-law they want.

Rachel nodded, holding on tightly to her parents’ words. “I understand, Mom, Dad.”

Katherine’s injuries kept her stuck in bed for days.

The hospital room felt too quiet, but she couldn’t let her mind rest. She thought through everything, over and over.

The kids weren’t safe anymore. Ivy couldn’t move because of her injuries, and Katherine refused to let Julian and Ethan get caught in this mess. She called Marsh and asked him to take the boys back to Yarbrough.

That weight off her shoulders, Katherine decided to meet with a high-profile lawyer.

After she explained her situation, the attorney shook his head. “This case is nearly impossible.”

Katherine pressed him. “Isn’t there any other way? We’ve been apart for years. Lucas is always surrounded by other women. Their families are planning an engagement.”

The attorney looked her straight in the eye. “Do you have actual proof that he’s cheated?”

Katherine gripped the edge of the table. “He’s with other women all the time. He even rented out a venue for her birthday and put on fireworks. Isn’t that enough?”

The attorney shook his head again. “Unless there’s clear evidence, that won’t hold up. Especially since we’re talking about Lucas.”

His voice got quieter just saying Lucas’s name.

Lucas Grant. Even his name made people nervous.

When Katherine first said it, the attorney stared at her, not sure if he’d heard right. Maybe it was a different Lucas. But Katherine confirmed t-she meant the Grant heir, the CEO everyone knew.

Lucas had the power to shut down every law firm in the city if he wanted. No one wanted to fight him in court.

Winning was out of the question.

The attorney stood and smoothed his jacket. “Ms. Pearce, you’ll have to find another lawyer. I can’t help you.”

Katherine tried to stop him, but the sudden movement sent pain shooting through her back.

This is ridiculous.

That was the Ilth lawyer she’d seen today.

Every single one turned her down the moment she mentioned Lucas’s name. Either they refused the case, or they said she would lose.
