There was a cold edge to Katelyn’s voice. Every word felt like a sharp threat. The more powerful and influential someone is, the more they fear losing it all. Was making money really worth more than life itself? Katelyn was sure those people had good judgment.
As the miraculous doctor Hades, she had built strong connections in the upper echelons of society. If she went through with this, it would definitely strike a major blow to the Wheeler family.
Neil’s icy gaze was piercing.
“You dare to threaten me?”
Katelyn raised an eyebrow and replied defiantly, “Yes, and what of it?”
If it weren’t for Carol, not wanting her to witness the Wheeler family go through another major crisis, Katelyn would have taken action long ago. Even though Neil kept calling her arrogant, her own skills gave her that confidence!
Neil’s fists tightened as his anger reached a boiling point. Once his grandmother was better, he would make Hades pay! In the meantime, Lise, noticing things were going off track, quickly tried to redirect the conversation.
She wanted to use public opinion to put pressure on Katelyn, but the discussion had completely derailed.
Lise clenched her fists, trying to appear calm and generous. “Hades, I really hope you can bring Katelyn out so we can have a proper talk. This has already hit the news. We’re family, so why let others see us as a joke?”
A hint of coldness crept into Katelyn’s smile as she replied, “You say that now? What were you thinking when you had someone record a video and hired trolls to sway public opinion?”
Lise’s heart raced. How could this happen? How did that awful woman know? She quickly composed herself. “What’s online has nothing to do with me. How could I possibly turn public opinion against Katelyn?”

“Lise, can you stop thinking everyone’s a fool? It’s a perfect angle that just happens to catch the moment Katelyn hit you, but why doesn’t it show the full story?”
The coldness in Katelyn’s eyes felt like a knife, piercing Lise’s heart.
Lise was speechless, ready to explain, when another furious voice shouted from behind her.
“Where is that dreadful woman, Katelyn? She needs to come out here, now!” Suddenly, someone exploded in rage—it was Sharon, who had been absent for quite some time. After seeing the shocking video online, she had rushed to the hospital. ? ? ? ?s, ?s? s Find~Novel.net
Katelyn’s eyes sparkled with a hint of sarcasm. The atmosphere buzzed with tension, growing thicker by the minute. Spotting Lise, her arm encased in a stark white cast, Sharon hurried over, her expression shifting to one of deep concern.
“Lise, what did the doctor say about your wrist? Is it serious?”
Lise’s voice trembled slightly, a hint of tears behind her words. “The doctor said my wrist is broken. I can’t do any heavy work with this hand for at least a year.”
