Chapter 279 Roller Coasters
When the driver made a move, Catherine swiftly reached out and plunged the needle that the driver
intended to insert into her body into his own. The driver tried to struggle, but his hand was firmly held
by Catherine, unable to move an inch.
With a terrified look in his eyes, he stared at Catherine in disbelief. He couldn’t imagine that he would
be defeated by a gentle and beautiful little girl.
The drug began to take effect. The driver began to lose consciousness, his vision fading to black.
Catherine pushed him forcefully, causing his body to fall to the ground. Her expression remained cold
and emotionless.
After the driver fell, two figures emerged from somewhere. Two men dressed in black stood behind
Catherine, bowing their heads respectfully. One of the men in black knelt in front of Catherine, offering
a towel.
“Boss, you can wipe your hands with this!”
Catherine took the towel and carefully wiped her hands. Then, she casually threw it onto the driver
lying on the ground. Catherine lowered her gaze and coldly glanced at the driver, casually saying, Call
an ambulance and throw him off!”
With a completely calm expression on her face, she said the harshest words. The two men in black
received the order and replied without any hesitation, “Yes, Boss!”
Catherine stood in front of the car, gaze indifferent as she watched the driver being dragged into the
car. She exuded a chilling aura, a formidable presence that no one could match. her Catherine was
capable of committing the crime of murder.

Since the driver seemed to enjoy the thrill of “roller coasters” so much, she would let him experience
the sensation of breaking every bone in his body.
She would arrange for an ambulance to be waiting below, ensuring that his life would be saved in the
shortest possible time. He would survive, but he would suffer for the rest of his life. That was the price
he had to pay!
The Langs’ house was brightly lit and unusually noisy at the moment. Today, Rachael returned home,
accompanied by several children. The whole family was especially happy.
Johnathan was not around, so Liana was treated like a little princess by everyone, receiving their care
and attention.
Liana was overjoyed. Everything she had been looking forward to had finally returned. Indeed, without
Catherine, the world seemed to be a better place, and even the air felt sweeter.
Compared to Liana, Audrey had a somewhat troubled expression on her face. Her eyes were
constantly focused on the front door.
The darker the day became, the more anxious Audrey felt in her heart. She couldn’t help but walk up to
Liana, asking, “Liana, didn’t you say you came with Catherine? Why hasn’t she arrived yet?”
Liana had anticipated that Audrey would ask her this question. She wore a slightly impatient expression
on her face, showing a look of disdain in her eyes. She couldn’t understand why Audrey was so close
to Catherine. They had grown up together, but Audrey had never shown this much concern for her.
“How would I know? Didn’t I already tell you that I had to get off to get something? Catherine left before
me. I know she hasn’t arrived, but what does it have to do with me?”
Liana’s tone was unpleasant, and Audrey felt angry after hearing it. After all, Catherine was still Liana’s
sister. Now that they couldn’t reach Catherine, Audrey thought it was so mean of Liana to say such
words.
She glared at Liana, her eyes filled with dissatisfaction. “How can you say that? Don’t you care about
Catherine at all?”
“Why are you arguing?” Donna heard them arguing and slowly approached them. “I could hear you two
arguing from far away. What’s going on?”
Liana reached out and hugged Donna’s arm, looking aggrieved. “Grandma, Audrey asked me where
Catherine is. But I’m not a mind reader. How would I know? She got angry and yelled at me!”
“yell at her?” Audrey asked inwardly. ” When did I yell at her?”
Audrey looked at Liana in disbelief. Before she could even explain, Donna turned her head towards
Audrey, her eyes filled with great displeasure. Audrey, how can you be so mean to Liana? You’ve
grown up. Do you still need me to teach you how to care for your sister?”
Audrey felt a bit aggrieved, but she knew she couldn’t argue with her elders. She tried to calm herself
down and explained, “Grandma, it’s not like that. I’m just worried about Catherine. She said she would
come right after school, but she still hasn’t arrived.”
As Catherine was mentioned, Donna’s expression grew even darker. She didn’t like her at all.
“She just returned to Casier not long ago. She grew up in the countryside and has a wild temperament.
Maybe she saw something interesting on the way and went off to explore it. There’s no need to make a
big fuss about it. Why did you have to scold your sister like this?”
Liana stood by, watching Audrey being scolded with a smug smile on her face. But what made her
happier was Catherine’s disappearance. Liana thought her days of happiness had returned.
Audrey couldn’t accept Donna’s reprimand. She thought that Donna had misunderstood Catherine, and
she wanted to explain clearly.
“Grandma, it’s not like that. Kathy is very responsible and dependable. If she promises to do
something, she will do it. I’m just worried that something might have happened to her. After all, she’s
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmjust a young girl, and it’s getting dark outside.”
Because of Audrey’s words, Donna’s face turned completely dark. She never expected Audrey to dare
to argue with her. This was truly outrageous.
In the past, Audrey was extremely obedient. Although she was not as clever as Liana, she was still
well- behaved. But after Catherine returned, Audrey changed. Donna didn’t believe it in the first place,
but now she finally understood that Audrey had indeed changed.
Donna’s face instantly became gloomy, like a sky about to unleash a storm. She had a stern
expression and coldly said to Audrey, “Since you’re so worried, then go out and find her yourself. Don’t
make a fuss here. You have no manners at all. It seems that you’ve been corrupted by your job.”
Audrey knew that her decision to enter the entertainment industry had never been approved by her
family. She thought that by constantly working hard and achieving some success, her family would
support her choice. However, she never expected that they would still look down on her, believing that
she was disgracing the family.
Audrey lowered her head, feeling heartbroken, and a chilling sensation crept over her mind, making her
shiver.
The most terrifying thing was not the rumors and gossip from the outside world but the disdain from her
loved ones. Although she was in great pain, she was more concerned about Catherine at the moment.
She lowered her voice, trying to hold back her emotions. “Grandma, I’ll go and find Catherine, then. I’ll
come back later!”
No one tried to stop her. She just slowly turned around, ready to leave. Just when she was about to
leave, a voice sounded.
“No need. I’m here!”
The cold voice shattered the silence in the room. Liana followed the direction of the voice, her jaw
almost dropping in astonishment.
