Chapter 23: 23: Never Found Anna's Body

"I will be fine. Don't worry about me. I know how to deal with the old bitch since we have lived together for so long."

"Well, in that case, any help would be great."

…

Nearly as soon as Kate hung up with Daisy, Leo called.

"Kate, come to the house as soon as possible. There's something you need to deal with right now." Leo said seriously.

Leo's urgent demand confused Kate, but she assumed that something had happened with Dora. Even if she had the power to manage the company, she was still unhappy?

Kate received permission from Mike to leave and headed to the White's mansion immediately.

"Kate, don't think that you can offset your mistake by handing over White's shares," Dora shouted at Kate the moment she stepped into the house.

Kate didn't know what happened. She ignored the crazy woman, turned to her father, "Dad, what's wrong?"

"We never found Anna's body two years ago after the accident. To comfort Dora, we lied to her. I told her we found the body and had it cremated."

Kate was surprised to hear her father's confession; she didn't know how to respond.

Dora was still furious. She pointed at Leo and continued to shout, "You're a liar. Why didn't you die? You caused my daughter's death, and you lied to me. My poor daughter… we don't even know where she is!"

"Well, Dora, it is all of my faults. Don't be angry anymore. Let our daughter rest in peace…" Leo deeply signed. "I wish it was me who died."

"You owe our daughter and me, but you will never be able to pay me back in this life or in the next," Dora snarled. She was so upset; she picked up the last picture taken of Anna and shouted, "Anna, my poor Anna…I have been so lonely since you left me. Take me away, please, I don't want to live anymore!"

Kate knew nothing good would happen when Dora shouted and cried. She didn't want to waste her time listening to Dora's ramblings any longer and was about to leave.

After saying goodbye to her father, Kate walked out of the room, but behind her, she heard Dora scream, "STOP! You will not leave this room without giving me an explanation."

"Are you make this my fault?" Kate knew Dora well and was not going to give in to her. Kate looked at her, sneered, "If you are not satisfied, go and ask my father for help. Don't get me involved in this mess."

"Do you want to avoid this problem? No way!" Dora said bluntly.

"To ease his guilt, your father had handed over all of his assets to Anna. I will be taking them in Anna's place."

Leo carefully looked at Kate's reaction; she coldly said, "Dad, did you forget that you promised Mom? If you did, I can give you a copy of the tape, or ask Mr. and Mrs. Smith to help you remember."

"I..." Leo almost forgot that they had recorded the promise he made to Flore. He did want to give everything to Kate in the beginning. He felt that marrying Dora and accepting Anna as his daughter was the best thing to do. However, Dora changed and was now annoying him with the whole situation.

"You'd better save effort and don't bother," Kate wasn't giving up, "My mother contributed a lot to make the White Group succeed. She always cared about me; even in the last seconds of her life, she was only worried about my future. I will not let my mother's efforts go to waste."

"You!" Dora turned red with anger and scolded, "If you say so, I will make you pay for my daughter's death."

"Compensate for your daughter?" Kate thought it was funny, "She was an adult and was free to do anything she wanted. Did I force her to pick me up?"

"You bitch-hearted slut, I am today...ah!" Dora ran toward Kate.

Kate took the palm of her hand and pushed her away, angrily, "If you're really that dissatisfied, sue me! The law would give a reasonable sentence!"

"Kate, you bitch!" Dora knew that she had no reason to argue with her. She had no way but to scold her to vent her anger.

"I advise you not to be so hard on me; this will only be counterproductive!" Kate looked at Leo, who frowned deeply, "If necessary, I will find a lawyer to deal with it."

"Kate, don't be angry. I'll not push you if you're not willing to accept it. You know I am also in a hard situation right now!" Leo was caught in the middle. When he comforted Dora, he lowered his head and was afraid to look her in the eyes.

Kate was happy to see that Leo surrendered, and Dora was still angry as she walked out. She would be upset by the outcome, but she would get used to it.

"Leo, you are good for nothing. Don't you forget how you promised me in private? Why do you need to be so timid in front of Kate? Are you not a responsible man?"

The moment Kate left, Dora began to shout at Leo.

"How could you treat me like this? How could you do this to our dead daughter?"

"Enough! If you have anything else to say to me, talk with me in the room." Leo interrupted Dora, afraid that she would say something more.

"How could you…" Dora wanted to say more, but she seemed to realize something and closed her mouth. Then she walked behind Leo, pushing his wheelchair into the other room.

Daisy was behind the door; she ducked her head out and gave them a meaningful smile.

"Leo, I've been enough with you. If you can't give me a reasonable explanation, this will be a situation of life and death," Dora threatened.

"Dora, would you please consider this for me? Kate's also my daughter. And to marry you, I betrayed Flora…"
