The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine) novel Chapter 65

Even Kieran and Tommy were stunned by what Elissa did.

Kieran yanked Elissa, “What are you doing? Isn’t it embarrassing enough?”

Elissa forcefully flung Kieran away and glared at him angrily.

She turned and started to smile again and said warmly, “My good son-in-law, we were wrong in the past. Please be magnanimous and reconcile with Kate. Please don’t abandon my daughter.” She said meekly without the previous haughtiness and shrewdness.

“Abandon?” Katherine murmured. Her mother’s words were like a red hot blade ruthlessly plunging into her heart. She was already devastated and this made her entire world spin.

What did her mother take her for? What did her mother say when she divorced? What was she saying now?

Bang! The call was cut off.

The smiles on Elissa’s face disappeared and she became indescribably stunned. She turned her head and violently grabbed Kieran’s arm, “Damn fool, why did you interrupt me? Why do you interfere with my call to my son-in-law?”

“Have some dignity.” Kieran winced in pain and said.

“Dignity?” Elissa scoffed, “Sure, you want your dignity, then settle your son’s marriage expenses!”

“You…” Kieran was stumped by what she said.

Elissa pointed to the television, “Look at how rich Jack is? He is already the boss of DT Real Estate Agency. DT is now modernizing the western city. Once it is all done, how rich would he become!” Elissa’s eyes glittered as she said.

“Jack likes Kate so much. Once Kate apologizes to him, they will certainly remarry. Then our family will be rich!”

Kieran looked stupefied at Elissa, “This matter had been blown up to such an extent that everyone in the city knows about this. You are still daydreaming expecting the best?”

“Kate is to be blamed for all these!”

Elissa clenched her jaws and looked angrily at Katherine, “Katherine, your foolish actions tarnished our family reputation. Jack is such a good man. What were you thinking when you divorced him?”

“As your mother, I want you to go and apologize to Jack and get him to remarry you!”

Katherine’s eyes were red but she no longer had any more tears to cry. Her mother loved her face value and it was true that this incident had absolutely tarnished the family reputation. But she never expected her mother to disregard the incident of her ruining their reputation but instead, wanted her to apologize to Jack and endeavor to get him to remarry her!

“Mom, what do you take me as? I’m not your tool to be used as you wish. I have my dignity. I was the one who broke off with Jack. Why should I apologize to him and remarry him?” Katherine shouted.

“How dare you talk back to me?” Elissa’s face flushed red in anger and roared angrily, “Katherine, are you trying to drive me towards my grave?” She said as she pretended to struggle with her breathing.

She indeed loved her face value but she loved money even more. Jack was her ex-son-in-law and now that he was so rich, when Katherine and Jack remarried, wouldn’t Jack’s money become hers? With money, they would regain all the reputation that they had lost.

Kieran was terrified when Elissa seemed to struggle with her breathing. Kieran stood up anxiously and tried to calm Elissa, “Don’t get so worked up, watch your heart.”

“Don’t bother with me! My daughter won’t even listen to her mother. I might as well die!” Elissa slapped away Kieran’s hand.

Kieran frowned in pain and said furiously, “Are you blind? Jack proposed to Amber at the launch of Dragon Garden. There is no turning back for them!”

“Piss off!”
