A Replacement Bride

As he spoke, he waved at the bodyguard who was controlling Jennifer. The bodyguard understood his

signal and swiftly pressed the knife against Jennifer's waist, holding her hostage as they walked toward

the man.

Katherine watched this scene with her eyes as cold as ice. The coldness in her eyes turned even more

frightening, especially when she saw the wound on Jennifer's face.

Then, she pulled a chair over and sat down without a hint of hesitation. Then, she raised her brow,

looked at the man in front of her, and asked, "What do you want?"

"I want the things that your Grandpa left behind," the man answered truthfully without beating behind

the bush.

Instead of replying to the man, Katherine simply glanced at the time and thought, Half an hour has

passed since I'd given Savannah my order. If everything goes according to plan, Savannah and the

others are already in action. If so, the Miller Family should be suffering from attacks by now.

She curled her lips into a somewhat bloodthirsty smirk as she thought of that. "You want the things that

my Grandpa left behind? Alright then."

The man mistook her smile for a surrender. He instantly became excited and said, "Hand over the

things to me, and I promise I won't hurt this old lady."

Yet, out of the man's expectation, Katherine stood up and suddenly waved her hand at the man.

Seconds later, she threw several silver needles in the man's direction. The man simply felt a pain in his

neck before realizing what was going on. He reflexively touched his neck, only to feel a sting like he

had been bitten by an ant.

"What did you do?!" the man asked angrily as he looked up at Katherine.

"No one dares to threaten me, especially using the people I care about the most!" Katherine

immediately walked over after she replied to him coldly.

At this juncture, the man began to panic. He wanted to order his bodyguards to take action, yet he

couldn't make any sound when he opened his mouth to speak.

The man's fear and uneasiness gradually escalated when faced with such a peculiar situation.

Ignoring the fearful look on the man's face, Katherine directly made her way over to Jennifer's side.

She reached out and gently pushed away the bodyguard who was capturing Jennifer. In the next

second, the man fell straight to the ground without a sound, making people guess whether he was still

alive or already dead.

When the man saw this, he became even more terrified. Finally, he desperately opened his mouth and

tried to speak. Still, he couldn't make a sound.

As he realized his situation, he stared at Katherine with a fearful look, like he was staring at a real-life

demon. The calm and collected vibe he had earlier had long since disappeared.

Katherine, on the other hand, didn't even look at him.

Since she had utterly destroyed the Miller Family, it didn't matter whether the man was alive or dead.

She knew Joaquin would naturally arrange for someone to take care of the aftermath.

Katherine first checked on Jennifer's pulse and was relieved after she was sure that Jennifer merely

suffered from some bruises and had no significant injury.

At this moment, Noah was looking at Katherine with a yearning look as she rested in Joaquin's arms.

Katherine's heart softened due to her clearly longing gaze. Then, after she sighed softly, she went over

to pick her up from Joaquin's arms.

At once, Noah happily reached out and hugged Katherine's neck.

By the time they came out of the Miller Residence, Jeremy had already brought his men over and

surrounded the entire residence.

Jeremy only stepped forward after he saw that Katherine and Joaquin had managed to rescue Jennifer

and Noah safely. "Mr. Levisay."

"Go in and arrest everyone. Also, inform our superiors that the Miller Family has kidnapped the nation's

important personnel. Then, they'll know how to deal with this matter," Joaquin instructed Jeremy with a

stoic expression.

Jeremy nodded at those words. Then, with a wave of his hand, he ordered his men to go in and arrest

those in the establishment. As for him, he went to make a call to arrange a follow-up on this matter.

After they were finally in the car, Katherine glanced at Joaquin before saying lightly, "I think the Miller

Family is just a cover. The one who deceived and lured my Grandma back to Cechirus has yet to show

up."

Joaquin hummed and nodded, agreeing with her statement. The current situation in Hovington is

getting way too dangerous, especially as more hunters flock to Hovington. I can bet that the level of

danger in Hovington now has skyrocketed compared to before. Something might happen to Mrs. Olsen

at any time if we aren't being careful enough. Taking this incident as an example, Katherine and I were

just away for minutes, yet they actually took advantage of this and kidnapped Mrs. Olsen and Noah.

Yet, it's kind of odd that they were able to break through the security, especially when Soulin

International security is so tight. Judging from this, there must be someone helping them from behind.

Since Noah had experienced an incredibly shocking and terrifying predicament, she fell asleep in

Jennifer's arms shortly after getting in the car.

Meanwhile, Jennifer looked down at her. Then, she reached out and caressed Noah's delicate face. A

sense of fear took over her body for a while as she thought of the harm that had nearly inflicted on

Noah just now.

It was already an hour later when they returned to Soulin International.

Savannah also came forward to report the situation to Katherine.

The team had spent a total of one hour and three minutes eradicating all the abroad influences of the

Miller Family. All their companies declared bankruptcy due to ineffective capital turnover. As of this

moment, the Miller Family could be considered eliminated.

At this moment, in the Miller Manor in Kyoland, Nicholas Miller, the head of the Miller Family, received

an abroad call from his son. After he learned that the Miller Family's decades of hard work abroad had

been destroyed, he was so upset that he spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
