Chapter 394: Chapter 394

Kate and Irene finished their lunch together and parted ways as they finished their meeting. Kate came to the office with a Taxi, so she asked the manager to call one for her before leaving.

As Kate left the restaurant, Graham walked out, silently following her, hoping he would get a chance to talk with her.

He knew there were a lot of bodyguards watching Katherine, making sure that she was untouchable, but even if he had to risk getting beaten up, so be it.

This was for her safety, after all.

Kate saw her Taxi and was about to open the door when she sensed a man rushing towards her from behind.

She turned around and gasped when she saw Graham trying to reach her, "Kate, wait—!"

Unfortunately, before he could reach her, two bodyguards grabbed his shoulder from behind and pinned him down to the snow-covered ground, "Urgh!"

Graham tried to struggle, but he was no match for the two bodyguards.

"Stay down!" One of the bodyguards yelled. "What were you going to do to Mrs. Ross?! Answer me!"

Kate stared down at Graham, who looked up at her with a plea in his eyes.

"I—urk—I just want to talk with her," Graham said.

"Mrs. Ross doesn’t need to talk to a stranger!" The bodyguard said. He then shifted his gaze at Kate, "Ma’am, you must leave now! This man is dangerous!"

"No..." Kate shook her head. "He is not dangerous. He is the man who helped my divorce. He’s my divorce lawyer, Graham Hubbard."

Kate thought that the bodyguard would let him go after she mentioned his identity.

But nope.

He kept pinning him down and replied, "Yes, Ma’am. We are well aware of his identity. He is one of the people listed by Mr. Grant as someone who can’t get close to you."

’Oh, I almost forgot how unreasonable Henry can be with his jealousy,’ Kate thought.

Graham got even angrier after knowing that Henry put him as one of the people that Kate had to be protected from, even though he was probably the only man with good intentions for her!

He wanted to save her!

Thus, Graham mustered all his strength to raise his voice so Kate could hear him loud and clear, "Henry doesn’t want me to get close to you because I know the truth, Katherine!"

"Ma’am, don’t listen to this madman. You should leave now!" The bodyguard interrupted, thinking this man must be on the list for a reason. So Mrs. Ross shouldn’t be listening to his bullshit.

Kate hesitated for a moment. She grabbed the Taxi door handle, ready to leave, but seeing how much Graham tried to struggle, it made her wonder if this was an important thing she needed to know.

Thus, following her instinct, she told the bodyguards, "Get him up but keep him in place. I want to know what he wants to say."

The bodyguards looked at each other. Of course, they couldn’t deny the order from their Boss’ wife.

So they allowed Graham to get up but grabbed his arms tightly, ensuring he couldn’t jump on Kate again.

Graham’s apparel was disheveled after he got shoved to the ground. He seemed angry for the treatment he got, but he kept his eyes on Kate.

"I don’t have much time, Graham. You only have five minutes to tell me what you want to say," Kate said.

"Oh, I don’t need five minutes because you already heard it from me before," Graham said. "Leave him, Kate. Henry doesn’t love you. He just wants to have your baby and give it to his father in exchange for all of Grant’s company and asset ownership! He is a fucking scum!"

...

Kate rolled her eyes, "You already told me this lie before? Do you have proof, or does this slander just come out of your ass?"

"This is not a slander! I have proof—" Graham paused after realizing he had no proof.

Besides Sarah’s words that he had taken as the truth, he had no way to prove his words.

But he knew that he was right because he preferred to believe Sarah than Henry. That bastard wanted to ruin a good woman’s life.

Kate waited for five seconds of silence from Graham and sighed, "I know you don’t have proof, Graham, because it’s simply not true."

"It’s true! Please trust me, Kate. It’s not too late for you to leave. We can leave, and I will protect you!"

"Thanks for the offer, but no. I have a good life with Henry in New York, and to tell you the truth, Henry starts a new company just to break free from his father," Kate said. "If he wants to take my baby and give it to Marlon, then why would he go through all the pain of starting a new company all by himself?"

"That is to trick you into believing him completely! Don’t fall for his lie, Kate! He just wants your baby for Marlon to kill!" Graham retorted. "Besides, he is a good-for-nothing son of a whore! Do you really think he can be successful without his father’s help?!"

"You—!" Kate had been patient the whole time, thinking that Graham was just delusional. But she couldn’t control her anger when she heard Graham insult Henry.

Henry was HER man! He worked hard for their small family!

So Kate walked towards Graham and—

PA!

Graham was left shocked when Kate slapped him.

It was painful but even more painful after Graham realized how madly in love she was with Henry.

"Don’t you DARE to insult my man like that! He is working his bones off so we can have our freedom!" Kate said. She got emotional thinking about how exhausted Henry was from working every day. Yet, some people really had no sympathy for that honest, hardworking young man. "He abandons his crazy family so we can start a life together!"

"That’s all part of his lie," Graham repeated like a broken radio. "He is greedy and coldhearted, Kate."

"Listen, Graham Hubbard. I will let you off because you helped me during my divorce trial. But this will be the last time," Kate said coldly. "I’ve had enough of your nonsense. Goodbye, Mr. Hubbard. Don’t stalk me anymore."
