Chapter 206: 206 A Disaster

If it hadn't been for her phone ringing, Kate would have been on the floor crying for hours. She slowly got up and went to her desk, she saw it was Lisa calling.

"Kate, I may have done something without your consent. Don't be angry when I tell you," Lisa whispered, afraid that she might upset Kate.

Kate sat down and asked, "What is it?"

"Emm…I saw the coat you left on my sofa. It was Rowen's… so I took it to him," Lisa stammered and quickly added, "But I explained to him why."

Kate suddenly remembered about the coat, "Sorry Lisa, I wanted to tell you. I was worried you might misunderstand though, so I didn't mention it."

"It doesn't matter. And, you don't need to explain to me. He is not my boyfriend." Lisa said with disappointment then asked, "Are you angry with me?"

"Of course not, I should be thanking you!"

"Good," Lisa let out a sigh of relief, "So, what are you going to do? Are you going to Joseph's tonight?"

"No. I have something to deal with after work," Kate moaned thinking of Daisy and the mansion. She needed to go see what was happening.

"Something?" Lisa asked with care, "Troubles?" Lisa asked but before Kate answered, Lisa added, "I'm sorry, you don't have troubles. Joseph takes care of all of them for you."

Kate laughed, "Why are you so afraid of saying things to me? You can say whatever you want."

"I know, I just worry I will offend or upset you."

Kate sighed, "Lisa, many times I have doubted whether I am good enough to others."

"What's wrong with you, Kate? Did you and Joseph get into an argument?" Lisa questioned.

"No, we are fine."

"Then why would you say that? What on earth happened? We are best friends, you can tell me anything. I will do my best to help you and give you my opinion," Lisa told her.

"Just a little misunderstanding. Everything will be fine if I explain to…" Kate did not want Lisa to worry about her.

"I understand, and you don't need to worry about those who don't understand you. No matter what you do, it will be in vain," Lisa assured her friend.

"Thank you, Lisa," Every time Kate was puzzled and doubted about herself, Lisa always helped.

"If I was to guess, I would say you did something good for someone and now someone else doesn't appreciate your gesture. So, you are blaming yourself, am I right?" Lisa knew Kate all too well.

Kate smiled reluctantly, "Perhaps it is my downfall."

"I get it, and thank you, Lisa," Kate smiled.

After hanging up with Lisa, Kate wiped away her tears and headed toward home hoping to clear up any confusion. However, when she walked in the door, the house was a mess. She looked around and saw Anna cowering on the sofa.

When Anna saw Kate, she ran to her. Anna's face was covered with bruises, she buried her head in Kate's chest and cried, "Sister Kate…"

Kate felt an overwhelming sense of déjà vu, the last time it was Daisy who was beaten and Dora had ransacked the house.

She comforted Anna for a long time, but she looked around to see broken glass laying on the floor. Kate tried to stay calm, "When did Daisy leave?"

"About two hours ago, she collected all of her belongings. I was scared of her so I didn't dare say anything to her. I hid in my room, but then she broke in and beat me…" Anna sobbed, trembling all over.

"Sorry, I never expected that she would," Kate said, her voice filled with grief. She let go of Anna, then got a spray to help heal her wounds.

Anna shook her head, "You shouldn't feel bad. I know Daisy doesn't like me, so it is normal for her to beat me."

"She…" Kate wanted to explain for Daisy, but did not know how. She buried her head to continue dressing Anna's wounds.

"Okay," Kate reminded, "Don't use any water on it right now. And, please call me if you have any pain. I am going to go make dinner. You can rest upstairs or watch TV in the living room. I will call you when dinner is ready."

Anna's eyes were focused on Kate, but she didn't say a word. Kate was curious. She asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing," Anna's tears kept falling, "I just feel sorry, I'm very sorry for you..."

Kate brushed Anna's messy hair out of her face and smiled, "You didn't do anything wrong. You don't need to say sorry to me and don't take Daisy's words to heart. Everything happened in the past ... is over."

"Sister Kate, don't worry, I won't cause trouble and let you down," Anna promised to Kate.

"Good," Kate replied and walked toward the kitchen.

When Kate was out of sight, Anna looked down at the wound on her arm, and anger glimmered in her eyes. She bent down to pick up the broken pieces of glass.

As she made dinner, Kate called Joseph to explain she was having dinner with Anna and that he would have to have dinner alone.

Joseph felt a little uneasy about Kate being alone with Anna. He wanted to call her several times but stopped himself from her that he may annoy her. He didn't want to give her any excuse to ask for space away from him.

At nine o'clock, when Joseph still hadn't heard from her, he picked up his phone.

Kate was cleaning up the mess that Daisy left. She had smashed a lot of things, including photos of Kate and Flora. Kate was heartbroken and didn't want to forgive her.
