Chapter 603 He’s Poisoned

Catherine had just parked her car when she saw Branden standing in a spot not far ahead. She pushed open the car door and slowly got out.

Branden had already come to her side after she got out of the car. He looked at her gently with his deep eyes.

“Are we going upstairs or going back?”

Catherine originally wanted to come and return the car to Branden, but she did not expect Branden to come downstairs to find her.

It looked like he should have finished his official business and could leave.

“If you’re free, let’s go back.”

They rarely made a trip back to Casier these days, and Karl looked forward to them returning to the old house every day.

It just so happened that they were done with their business, so Catherine thought of going back early to accompany Karl.

“Okay!”

Branden responded gently. Taking the key from Catherine’s hand, he pulled open the car door and let her sit in the passenger seat.

“Come on, let’s go back!”

Not long after the car had set off, the cell phone inside Catherine’s pocket rang. She answered the call and immediately instructed Branden to turn around.

“To the hospital!”

Branden immediately turned on the turn signals. He changed the car’s direction before asking about the situation.

“What happened?”

“Something happened to Korbin!”

Catherine said in a cold voice before Branden slammed his foot on the gas. The car traveled down the road at a breakneck speed.

The two got to the hospital as fast as they could.

Audrey was guarding outside the hospital room. At this moment, her eyes were already red, and her hands were involuntarily trembling.

Seeing Catherine appear, she rushed toward Catherine as if she had found her support.

“Kathy, you finally came. Dad… he is dying!”

“What’s going on?” Catherine inquired with a frown.

On the phone, she had only heard that Korbin was dying. She didn’t know exactly what was going on.

Thomas had previously clearly stated that Korbin’s illness had recovered to the best possible outcome. How could something suddenly happen to him?

Audrey shook her head with her eyes red.

She said, “I don’t know. Dad was fine in the morning. Mr. Theo checked on Dad in the morning and said that Dad would probably wake up today or tomorrow at the latest. But then, in the afternoon, Dad suddenly stopped breathing. Mr. Parry said he was dying. Mr. Theo is here and is trying to save him!”

Korbin was on the verge of waking up, and suddenly this happened.

It was too much of a coincidence.

Was it someone intentionally not wanting Korbin to wake up, or was he really so unlucky that even Thomas couldn’t save him?

Compared to Audrey, who was at a loss for words and panicked, Catherine was much calmer.

She kept her eyes on the emergency room. Only after the lights in the emergency room went out and the door opened did Catherine pace up to Thomas.

“He has been rescued but is not out of danger yet. Whether he can get through it or not depends on tonight.”

Hearing that, Audrey’s newly relieved nerves tensed up again. Thomas’ body swayed, and Catherine immediately stepped forward to support him.

“I’ll take you to rest!”

Seeing that Thomas had exhausted himself in order to save Korbin, everyone dared not say anything and watched as Catherine helped him leave.

After the two entered the lounge, Catherine immediately released Thomas’s hand. She walked gracefully to the nearby chair and sat down.

Thomas, who was weak earlier, was now as energetic as a young man. He grunted at Catherine in dissatisfaction.

“How could you do that to me? It’s only one step away from the chair, but you took the seat before helping me take it!

Catherine raised her eyebrows and looked at Thomas with a light smile. ” Stop pretending. Tell me now. What exactly is going on?”

Thomas knew that the matter was urgent, so he stopped joking and returned to the topic.

“He was rescued. Thanks to your sister’s timely discovery, otherwise, no one could have been able to save him. But it wasn’t because of the postoperative complications!”

Without waiting for Thomas to finish, Catherine suddenly opened her mouth and coldly uttered two words.

“He’s poisoned!”

Thomas was shocked and looked at Catherine dumbfounded. “How do you know?”

Catherine Swann, a simple countryside girl, was having a leisurely and carefree life in the countryside. She thought she could have a happy life there for the rest of her life. Unfortunately, life had other plans for her. Her grandfather left a will for her, making her the inheritor of the Swanns’ billion-dollar fortune. As if that wasn’t shocking enough, he also arranged a marriage for her.

Branden Duncan, the only heir of the wealthiest family in Casier, was the dream prince charming of almost all the women in Casier. But Catherine turned him down in public. Instead of being angry about it, he was attracted by Catherine's cold eyes.Although Catherine seemed to be a girl with a simple life in the countryside, she was not simple. What kind of identity did she have? How would she deal with her unexpected fiancé and the opposition from the rest of the Swanns to her inheritance of the Swanns’ fortune?

Chapter 1 Return of the Jinx At Vicente Swann's funeral. As the Swanns were one of the three prominent families in Casier, Vicente's funeral was naturally packed with big shots and members of respected families in Casier. In the noisy venue, the arrival of a girl in a white T-shirt attracted the attention of everyone present. All of the people present were either rich or powerful. Despite being good-looking, the girl wore a cheap and battered T-shirt, setting her apart from everyone else at the funeral. Seeing how she walked straight toward the Swanns family, someone couldn't help asking curiously, "Who is she? Why is she sitting with the Swanns?" "I heard that she is Miss Catherine, the second daughter of the Swanns that had lived away from the family. Vicente only asked her to come back before he died." "Is that so? I heard that Vicente ordered the family to announce his will in front of everyone before he died. I guess she only returned for this!" ... The girl did not know that she had already become the topic of the guests' discussions. She looked calmly ahead with an indifferent expression on her face. Her eyes remained focused on Vicente's portrait in the middle of the venue. Nobody knew what she was thinking about at the time. At the sight of Catherine Swann like this, Liana Swann, the youngest and favorite daughter of the Swanns, couldn't help complaining to her mother, who was sitting next to her. "Mom, what is going on with this country girl? Grandpa has died. Even if she isn't sad, she should at least pretend to cry. What would the others think if the media took a photo of her like this later? She wouldn't even change her clothes when we asked her to. People that don't know better would think that the Swanns have mistreated her!" After hearing her youngest daughter's complaints, Rachael Swann furrowed her brows too. She thought that her youngest daughter did have a point. She never loved Catherine, her daughter from the countryside, dearly. In fact, Catherine pissed Rachael off just one day after she had returned. However, it was not the right time for Rachael to handle Catherine now. She planned to wait until the funeral was over before sending Catherine back to the countryside so that Catherine wouldn't continue to embarrass the Swanns here. Looking up, Rachael saw that her husband had arrived. She comforted her youngest daughter in a low voice, "Liana, be good. Your father is here. Bear with Catherine for now. We need to deal with what is important first!" Liana couldn't show her annoyance towards Catherine in public, so she could only choke back the complaints on the tip of her tongue. Nobody noticed that Catherine, who had been looking straight ahead, smiled lightly. The Swanns never spent time with Catherine, so they wouldn't know she had exceptional hearing. Even though Rachael and Liana spoke in a low voice, Catherine clearly heard every word of their exchange. Her mother truly did not love her! As Catherine stared at Vicente's portrait, her eyes flashed with a faint trace of sadness. Did she have to cry because of pain? ... Korbin Swann walked up the stage slowly. He gave a long speech first and expressed his views about how great Vicente was before finally announcing that the family would publicly announce Vicente's will. As many people knew this beforehand, the crowd was not too surprised. Vicente had a son and daughter. It was a no-brainer who would inherit the fortune of the Swanns. However, nobody understood why Vicente would make sure to make such a fuss to announce his will publicly. Was it just for formality? The lawyer Vicente trusted the most when he was still alive opened the sealed will and read it out loud. "After careful consideration, I, Vicente Swann, leave all my shares of the Swann Corporation, real estate properties, and a 500 million-dollar deposit at the Bank of Nospines to my granddaughter, Catherine Swann..." At the lawyer's words, the crowd gasped in shock. Not even the Swanns, everyone present was dumbfounded. Catherine Swann? Wasn't she the second daughter of the Swanns, the jinx that Vicente sent off to be raised in the countryside when she was young? How could it be? She would inherit the fortune of the Swanns. With their jaws dropped, everyone shared a similar look of horror. Except for Catherine, the center of the discussion. She still looked indifferent, as though nothing had happened. Her eyes were still fixed on Vicente's portrait in the center of the hall. Her lips parted slightly as she spoke in an almost inaudible voice. "Old man, what were you thinking?"
