"Just admit it.” Rodney scoffed. "Catherine Jones, I'm giving you two options now. You can either go to jail o r let my subordinates have their fun with you. Only then will I let you off the hook."
Catherine chuckled. "For someone like you who isn't even eligible to inherit the Snow family's properties, you're nothing. I'm sure this bunch of people are not the masters from Snow Corporation. If you guys have the guts, you can band together and attack me. Let me see how great you are."
Rodney was so exasperated that his expression changed drastically. At this moment, Shaun had rushed over.
He slammed the brakes to stop in front of their cars. H e immediately got out.
He was still wearing the same shirt as when he had hurriedly left in the wee hours of the morning.
Nevertheless, his exquisitely handsome face looked extremely fierce, which was completely different from his gentle appearance yesterday.
At the sight of Shaun, Rodney snorted. “Shaun, you came at the right time. She's admitted that it was her doing. This time, you have to give me an explanation. This cruel woman must be punished accordingly."
Catherine was at a loss for words. "When did I admit t o kidnapping Sarah?"
"You admitted that the kidnapper works for you. If you hadn't instructed him, would he have kidnapped Sarah of his own accord?" Rodney criticized her.
Catherine furrowed her brows. Although Logan worked for her, he would not randomly kidnap someone without her order—unless someone had framed him. 1
She had always kept Logan a secret. No one knew about him except for a few of her close friends. Could i t be that someone had found out about it after the reporter captured her meeting Logan in the pub a few days ago?
Having said that, who could that person be?
Could it be the young man who headed to Neah Bay, the one who also secretly assisted Sarah?
Perhaps... it was Sarah’s new plan. Sarah’s purpose was to intensify the conflict between Shaun and her. Then, she would destroy her right-hand man, Logan.
The mastermind of this incident was ruthless, indeed.
For a woman, nothing was crueler than accusing her 0 f something she did not do.
However, it was his beloved woman who did such a horrible thing.
Catherine looked into his eyes impassively and calmly. "Shaun, you just told me recently that you'd try to trust me. Is this how you're trusting me? Whenever i t comes to Sarah’s affairs, you always suspect me without a second thought."
"I don’t want to suspect you either, but I’ve caught the person who works for you!" Shaun thundered, "When you met him at the pub that day, you were instructing him to kidnap Sarah, right? If you say no and deny your connections with him, I'll get someone to kill him
at once."
"No!" Catherine said helplessly, "Shaun, there must be a misunderstanding. I hope you’ll investigate this matter thoroughly. It's true that Logan works for me. He's the bodyguard I hired from overseas. When I returned to Australia, you guys were still my enemies, so I had to get someone to protect me. I understand his character. He wouldn’t do such a thing."
"Stop denying," Rodney chimed in, "The truth is already right in front of your eyes. Logan just acted on your instructions. Who else would've instructed him t o do so if not you? In the whole of Australia, only you and Freya hate Sarah." 2
