Chapter 674

“Vivian, Angel’s matter has nothing to do with me. In short, I can’t continue with Dale!” Katherine said firmly.

Katherine had already made up her mind not to let the scumbag take advantage of her again. Hearing this, Vivian was furious. “Katherine! I can’t believe you! You’re going to anger me to death! This matter must be suppressed. For the sake of the Santos family’s shares, you have to marry Dale too! Use Dale’s celebrity effect to make our family’s business prosper. Only then will you have a good life!”

Katherine looked at her mother in shock. “What? I’m the one who’s being wronged now. You actually want me to marry a scumbag. Shouldn’t you think about me? Also, he’s the one who did something wrong, not me! If Angel did something wrong, chase her out. Now that there’s a scandal, at most, you can chase me out too!”

Katherine was too disappointed in Vivian. She turned around and was about to go upstairs when she heard a thud behind her. She turned around and was shocked to see that her mother was lying on the ground.

Katherine ran over and quickly helped her mother up. Vivian was so angry that her face was pale. She held her chest and said, “You’re driving me to my grave!”

Katherine’s expression was ugly, and she was unwilling to compromise. Moreover, Vivian saw that Dale and Maliah had already gotten a room, yet Vivian still wanted Katherine to marry Dale. Wasn’t that forcing Katherine to seek her own death?

No matter what, Katherine would not agree to it..

However, seeing her mother like this, Katherine’s heart softened. “Alright, I’ll help you rest. Don’t interfere in this matter anymore, okay?”

Vivian shook her head. After drinking some water, she caught her breath and said in a shallow voice, “Katherine, you’ve always been obedient and sensible. However, your relationships have caused the family to fall apart several times. Your father, your brother, and I have been worried sick about you. How can you be so insensible?”

Katherine was instantly dumbfounded. “No, I don’t understand why it’s my fault. I was the one who was wronged every time, and none of those scumbags were punished. Now that I finally have this opportunity, I want everyone to see what kind of trash Dale is! But you actually want me to marry him? I just don’t understand. Is money and reputation more important than me? Besides, our family has a big business and doesn’t need Dale’s help. At most, I’ll find another boyfriend!”

Vivian sighed and said, “It’s easier said than done. You don’t know our family’s current situation. Katherine, forget it. It’s useless, even if I tell you so much. Anyway, you have to listen to me on this matter. You and Dale are not allowed to break up! If you’re really unwilling, at most, you can get a divorce after you get married. It doesn’t matter if you get married by agreement, but we definitely can’t have a scandal!”

Katherine was stunned. She looked at her mother and suddenly felt that the person in front of her was like a stranger. Was Vivian going to sacrifice her happiness for the so–called family glory?

Katherine was really too disappointed!

Vivian knew what she was thinking. She patted the back of her hand and said, “Katherine, you’re relying on our family today. Do you think it’s easy for your father and brother? Because of Angel’s incident, the company’s stocks have fallen. Our assets have already shrunk. If anything happens to you again, we will really go bankrupt! If you don’t listen to me, all your father and brother’s hard work will be ruined! Katherine, you’ve been very obedient since you were young. Just this once, listen to me. Can you bear to watch our family business collapse?”

Katherine did not feel good, but when she thought of Dale’s face, she felt disgusted.

“Vivian, is there no other way? I really can’t stand Dale, let alone marry him. A bastard who betrayed me is not qualified to be with me at all!” Katherine cried.

Vivian looked at Katherine and felt disappointed.

Katherine, you just won’t listen. You have to know that in a family like ours, marriage can’t be decided by ourselves. What’s wrong with sacrificing yourself for the glory of the family? You want to pursue true love? Are you qualified: Everything you eat and use depends on your family! When it’s time for you to enjoy it, you enjoy it. When it’s time for you to give, you talk to me about true love. Katherine Santos, you’re not qualified!” Vivian shook her head in anger,

Katherine was suddenly reprimanded by Vivian and immediately felt a little dazed. Did she really have to put on a show? She was unwilling and could not do it.

After all, in her heart, feelings were feelings. They could not be confused with transactions.

Now that her mother could say such words, Katherine wondered if she would be the one sacrificed if her brother was in danger in the future?

“Katherine!” Vivian shook her.

“No, I can’t do it! If you want me to get married, I can get married, but that person must not be Dale! You can choose anyone else. In short, I won’t be with him!” Katherine said firmly.

This was the last concession she made.

Vivian was instantly furious. She suddenly stood up and raised her hand to slap Katherine!

“You’re simply obsessed! Raising you up is just causing trouble! Today, you have to sacrifice yourself and bear with it! Otherwise, I’ll pretend that I don’t have a daughter like you!”

Katherine covered her face in shock. Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at Vivian. With tears in her eyes, Katherine turned around and went upstairs. She could not believe that her mother had requested this.

In her opinion, marriage was not child’s play. She could not aggrieve herself for a scumbag.

It was difficult for her to convince herself to accept Dale.

He was just a celebrity. After exposing him, everyone would see his true colors. At that time, his mother would know what he was like.

Katherine was extremely irritable. She tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.

Her face was still burning from the slap, but she did not feel uncomfortable.

She had been thinking about her mother’s words.

Today’s words had overturned all her understanding of the past two decades.

Were all marriages of wealthy families like this? Equivalent exchanges vividly reflected the faces of businessmen.

Although she did not want to think too much about it, her mother’s words were very obvious.

If she could, she would rather not be born into such a family!

Katherine tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Vivian walked in with milk.

“Katherine, think about it. I’ve been through this before. I won’t lie to you. Men are just going through the motions. If you want to be happy, you just have to be open–minded. Which man doesn’t cheat? Dale is handsome and can earn money. He’s also a big star. Other than being a little flirtatious, he doesn’t have any other disadvantages. You won’t suffer when you’re with him. Our family is your strongest backing!”

Katherine was a little impatient. “Vivian, you can go out first. I want to sleep.”

When her good friend, Valerie, found out that she had been let down by the scumbag, she immediately grabbed hold of the scumbag’s weakness and helped her take revenge.

Katherine had thought that she could rely on her family the most, but instead, she had to swallow her anger and pretend that nothing had happened to marry that scumbag!

She did not want to say anything now. She only wanted to throw herself into Valerie’s arms and but she did not dare to call Valerie. She was afraid that even Valerie would wonder why she had such a mother.
