Chapter 416 Too Many People Know This
“Vanessa, there is something we need you to cooperate with,” Kathleen said coldly.
“How’s my daughter?” Vanessa couldn’t get out, so she couldn’t see Yareli.
“She’s in a very stable condition now. It’s up to you to decide on whether to cooperate with us or not.” Kathleen looked at her meaningfully.
Vanessa paused. “How do you want me to cooperate?”
“Tomorrow, I will hold a press conference, and you have to expose what the Hoover family did to my mother on the spot,” Kathleen said coldly.
What?
Vanessa frowned.
Samuel said coldly, “You don’t have a choice, Vanessa. Now you and your daughter are in our hands. Don’t play any tricks. If you don’t cooperate with us, Yareli will be the one who suffers.”
Vanessa’s fists clenched tightly. “I can cooperate with you, but I want to see my daughter wake up.”
That was her only wish.
Kathleen nodded. “Fine. Just you wait!”
With that said, she turned around and exited the room.
Samuel followed her out too.
“Do you have a way to wake Yareli up?” Samuel furrowed his eyebrows.
“Of course.” Kathleen turned and entered Yareli’s room.
She took out a pill and a shot.
The pill was given to Yareli to eat first.
The shot was then used to inject into Yareli’s vein.
A few minutes later, Yareli really opened her eyes.
She sat up suddenly. “Where am…”
Before she could finish speaking, she felt like she wanted to puke.
Kathleen opened the bathroom door.
Yareli ran out of bed, entered the bathroom, and began to vomit.
After a while, she screamed.
Ahhh!
Kathleen stood at the door with her arms folded. “Don’t make a fuss, it’s just a lovebug. Just flush it away with water.”
Soon, the sound of flushing the toilet came from the bathroom.
Yareli walked to the sink and kept rinsing her mouth.
Then, she came out and looked at Kathleen with a grim face.
“What on earth happened to me?” Yareli was stunned.
Seeing that Samuel was standing aside, her face became even more embarrassed.
Samuel was indifferent and expressionless.
“You fell into a coma. Don’t you remember?” Kathleen asked coldly.
Yareli sat on the bed. “I only remember that I was trying on clothes in the fitting room of a mall. Suddenly, a woman with the same face as me walked in. Then, I don’t remember anything, even until now.”
She still felt scared thinking about it.
Kathleen sneered, “That’s because someone pretended to be you.”
Pretended?
Yareli bit her lip. “Who? Who dares to do such a thing?”
“A lot of people,” Kathleen said quietly.
Like me.
Kathleen said indifferently, “Since you can’t remember it, it doesn’t matter. You are not important anyway.”
As she opened the door, Rory pushed Vanessa in.
Seeing Yareli, Vanessa cried out excitedly, “Yareli!”
“Mom?” Yareli was shocked.
Why is she here?
They hugged each other.
“What on earth is going on?” Yareli asked in surprise.
Vanessa explained, “Lauren wanted to murder me. But I was rescued by Clarissa and handed over to Kathleen.”
What?
“Then what about me?” Yareli wondered.
“You were framed to be the one who tried to murder Kathleen and her daughter,” Vanessa said agitatedly.
Yareli gritted her teeth. “What? It must be the woman who looks exactly like me!”
Kathleen said coldly, “The woman who looks exactly like you is Nicolette. Yareli, as long as I don’t show up now, you are a murderer.”
Yareli paused. Then, she asked, “How are you never going to show up?”
Kathleen smiled sarcastically. “I can. It doesn’t matter what I do as long as I can watch you go to jail.”
Yareli roared, “It’s Nicolette who wants to murder you! She hates you to the core.”
Kathleen’s eyes were sharp. “Don’t you hate me? Don’t you want me to die?”
Yareli was at a loss for words.
Of course I want to!
If Kathleen’s dead, Samuel will look at me!
Kathleen said indifferently, “So you two are the same. In short, as long as I don’t show up, you will be locked behind bars.”
“You!” Yareli was angry.
Kathleen sneered at her. “Also, I can start over with a different identity, and it will have no effect on me. Anyway, Kathleen in the legal sense has been blown up by you, and when your case is settled, nobody will care who I am.”
Kathleen made Yareli’s face contort with fury.
Kathleen gazed coldly at Vanessa and asked, “Have you made up your mind?”
Vanessa pursed her lips. “You have to let Yareli go.”
Kathleen’s eyes were cold and sharp. “You made a lot of requests. You want me to save her, and now you want me to let her go. Believe it or not, I will murder you two here!”
Vanessa and Yareli trembled together.
Kathleen lost her patience. “I can save you or murder you, so don’t take it too far!”
“Kathleen, as long as you’re willing to let Yareli go, I won’t just attend any press conference. I can even help you sort out Luna Zeller.”
Luna Zeller was the name of Old Mrs. Hoover.
Kathleen narrowed her eyes. “So you are finally working with me now?”
Vanessa looked at her faintly and said, “I want you to help send Yareli to Turlen. Do you agree?”
Kathleen smiled coldly. “Then it depends on your sincerity.”
Vanessa paused and said, “Don’t worry, I’m full of sincerity! Just let me have a few words with Yareli alone, okay?”
Kathleen and Samuel glanced at each other, and they then turned to go out.
Yareli said agitatedly, “Mom, how can you promise them this?”
Vanessa said calmly, “Listen, Yareli. When you reach Turlen, go and see your biological father immediately. I’ve informed him a long time ago. He won’t just leave you out to dry, and you will not suffer if you stay with him.”
“My biological father?” Yareli furrowed her eyebrows.
Vanessa held her hand and continued, “Anyway, stop asking. Someone will pick you up when you get off the plane. I can see now that Nicolette is the most ruthless one. So, just leave this place.”
“What about you?” Yareli asked worriedly.
Vanessa explained, “I’ll be fine. Kathleen won’t murder me. At most, she will send me to prison, so don’t worry.”
Yareli said anxiously, “That won’t work either! Mommy, if nothing works, how about we go to Luna?”
Vanessa became furious. “Why don’t you understand? Luna is already working with Nicolette. We can’t trust her anymore! Otherwise, do you think Nicolette is capable of pulling off such a big stunt on her own?”
Yareli pursed her lips. “Why?”
Vanessa just realized and said, “Why else? Too many people know this secret. If you, me, and Uncle Zachary are dead, the only one left knowing will be Nicolette. By then, Luna will surely find a way to murder her.”
Does Nicolette think that she can escape?
In her dreams!
