Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 374

When Leonardo returned to the Emerson Group, he saw Kate in the president's office.

When he entered, Kate was sitting on the sofa with an angry face. It was obvious that she had been waiting for a long time.

As soon as Leonardo entered, she asked, "Where have you been?"

"Do I need to report to you?" Leonardo only glanced at her before walking straight to the executive chair behind his desk and sitting down.

He completely ignored Kate.

Kate was in a rage. She got up and walked to him furiously in her high heels. "Leonardo, we are siblings by blood. Blood is thicker than water. We should trust and support each other."

"Trust each other?" Leonardo seemed to have heard something funny and sneered at her. "Have you ever lied to me?"

Leonardo stared at her with a sharp gaze. Her eyes flashed with panic, but she maintained her smile with an effort and asked tentatively, "Did someone tell you something?"

Leonardo didn't answer but just stared at her.

Kate was so uncomfortable being stared at by him. She didn't even know where to put her hands because of the fear that her lies might be exposed.

Why would she feel guilty and scared?

Everything she did back then was for Leonardo and the Emerson family!

Thinking of this, Kate's expression returned to normal again. "No matter what other people said to you, don't believe them. The Emerson family has come a long way. So many people have been staring at us, wishing to take advantage from the internal conflict between us!"

This wasn't the first time Leonardo had heard her saying this. He said emotionlessly, "Really?"

Kate said with certainty, "Of course!"

Leonardo no longer looked at her and lowered his head to turn on his computer. "I'm going to work. Please go out."

Kate wasn't sure if Leonardo believed her words, but she could only turn around and leave.

After leaving the president's office, Kate put on a doubt face.

Everything went on well with Leonardo in the past three years. He didn't remember anything about the past or have much contact with those guys including Carl. Although he wasn't closer to her, she could say he listened to her.

But recently, she found out that Leonardo was getting harder and harder to control.

Where was wrong?

As Kate thought about it, she returned to her office and immediately made an overseas call.

The phone rang several times before it was answered.

"Dr. Li, my younger brother has been out of my control lately. He doesn't listen to me at all. I suspect that something is wrong with your hypnosis!" Kate said in a rage as soon as the phone was picked up.

The other end of the phone was very quiet.

After a while, a slightly hoarse male voice sounded. "Hypnosis is not a soul-controlling technique. Even if he is hypnotized, he still has his own thoughts and ideas. If you want him to obey you and want to control him, you have to rely on your own abilities."

There weren't any strange emotions in Dr. Li's tone, but Kate still felt he was mocking her.

Kate clenched her fists and didn't look well. "Are you mocking me for being useless?"

Dr. Li said at an appropriate speed, "In the past three years, you were the only person he trusted, but you were able to play such a good hand poorly."

"You..."

Kate had always been proud and looked down on others. Hearing this, she was certainly about to lose her temper.

However, when she thought that they still had to rely on Dr. Li because of Leonardo, she suppressed her anger abruptly.

She closed her eyes and calmed herself down before asking again, "Dr. Li, is it possible for my brother to remember what happened before?"

"There is no absolute answer to your question."

"Are you saying that his memory might recover?" Kate's expression changed drastically. "Didn't you say there would be no risk at all?"

"My definition of 'no risk' is different from yours. I have to work now. Goodbye, Miss Kate."
