"Are you threatening me?" Vincent was unhappy with her comments.

"I am only telling you the case as it stands. I didn't say anything that is not the truth," Kate thought she hadn't misspoken, it was Vincent who was always finding fault.

As Joseph's girlfriend, she knew how to love and care for Joseph, but Vincent blamed her for his overworking.

"Kate White, don't think I'm old and confused. I know your plan." Vincent snorted, "Don't you want Kate Group to become more vital than Smith Group? Then you can take over my company?"

"Grandpa, thank you for reminding me that I am not capable and need Joseph's help so that my company can surpass all others," Kate smiled.

Vincent was becoming enraged, he gripped his cane tight, "I know Joseph love you right now but I must warn you not to be arrogant and drag him down."

"I didn't know I was dragging him down. I only knew that he was my boyfriend and that I support him no matter what. Not like you, who only takes advantage of him," Kate snored back.

"I never knew that you had the gift of gab," Vincent grinned.

"Grandpa, I know I shouldn't speak to you in this way. But, I can assure you it is because your accusations are upsetting me. Whether you like it or not, what I am saying is from the bottom of my heart. I don't want to fight with you so you need to understand that Joseph did all of this for his father and the entire Smith family."

Vincent went quiet for a moment while he summoned the words to respond to Kate, "Since you mentioned that Joseph did this because of his deceased father. You should know how to act as part of the Smith family."

Kate laughed carelessly, "Grandpa, I know what you are saying, but as you reminded me before, I am no longer part of the Smith family. Even if I was though, it does not give you the right to control me."

He pointed at Kate and warned, "You'd better give birth to Joseph's child, or you'll live a very miserable life!"

"Have you finished?" Kate thought she needn't argue with him about this anymore.

Vincent knew as well that it would be pointless to continue so he got up and hobbled out of the house.

Ricky walked in when Vincent was gone. He commented, "Mr. Smith was furious when he left."

"It's not unusual for him to be angry," Kate smiled. During her marriage to Joseph, Vincent wasn't as nasty but since she took over Kate Group he became more hateful toward her.

"Miss Kate, you need to be careful. Mr. Smith is the head of the Smith family. Even though Lord Joseph isn't afraid of him, Mr. Smith can be vicious. I am afraid you will encounter misfortunes," Ricky encouraged Kate.

"Thank you; I'll keep it in mind," Kate said with a smile. She felt with Joseph by her side she had nothing to be afraid of.

Anna quietly replied, "Sister, I was stopped by a strange man on my way to work."

Quickly jumping up, Kate rushed to Anna's side and put her arm around her. Kate looked her up and down before questioning, "Are you hurt?"

"No," Anna shook her head, "I just don't know who the person was."

"What did he say?" Kate frowned, wondering who it would have been.

Anna shook her head again, "He just said that I am in a dangerous situation now."

"What did he look like? Where was it that you saw him?"

"He was tall and thin, with a muffled voice. I walked away after saying I needed to go to work."

Kate was unsure of who would have approached Anna just based on her details, but she was worried she might get hurt. To ease both of their minds, Kate told Anna, "I will have my driver, Frank, take you home when you get off work."

"Okay," Anna touched her chest, breathing a sigh of relief. Then she cautiously asked, "Sister, before I lost my memory, did I offend anyone else besides you and Daisy?"

"No," Even if she had, Kate wouldn't tell her the truth. She didn't think there was any reason to bring up the past since after the amnesia, she had become gentle and kind.

"That's good!" Anna sighed before leaving the office, "Daisy is gone and so she can't bully me anymore!"

When Anna left her office Kate continued to think of Daisy. She decided to pick up the phone but when she dialed the number she heard the message, "I am sorry, the phone you have called is turned off."

Kate stood in front of the window, staring out at the city for a long time.

After work, Frank took Anna home while Kate decided to take a taxi. As she waited a silver car pulled up in front of her. Kate held her breath for a moment until she saw Rowen in the driver's seat.

"Rowen?" She was surprised and smiled, "This is such a coincidence."

"Kate, get in the car, I'll take you home," Rowen said enthusiastically.

She waved her hand for a while and pointed to the taxi pulling up behind him, "No need, I'll just take a taxi."

"Kate, what happened before was just wishful thinking on my part. It had nothing to do with you so you don't need to feel uncomfortable around me," Rowen explained, filled with embarrassment.

Also feeling embarrassed, Kate smiled and then after a moment of hesitation got into the car.

A huge grin appeared on Rowen's face. To keep the atmosphere from becoming too tense, he asked, "How have you been?"

"I have been goo," she answered politely.

"I heard from Lisa that the tea shop has been doing well recently. She has even hired someone to help her, she was that busy."

After hearing him take the initiative to mention Lisa, she took the opportunity to compliment her, "I really admire Lisa for starting her own business, no matter how hard and tiring it is, she would never complain!"

"Yeah, she's a carefree girl on the surface but very delicate in fact," Rowen added.

Kate curiously glanced at him, "Do you think highly of Lisa?"

"Of course," After he answered without hesitation, "As your best friend, I could not think anything bad of her."

Realizing what he was doing, Kate wanted to change the subject.

"Don't get me wrong, I mean, you are excellent in every aspect, and therefore your friends must be excellent too," Rowen explained quickly.
