Chapter 263

"Ben, give her the documents," Joaquin immediately ordered in a cold voice.

The man did as was told and instantly tossed the documents he was holding to the ground.

"Here you go, hag. See for yourself." Ben used a sarcastic tone when he talked, and he did not show

even a hint of respect for the unreasonable woman.

Emma's expression darkened when she turned her attention to him. Resentment dripped from her as

she recalled him as the person calling Arthur during their last encounter.

As the realization dawned on her, she scowled and got up in a wobbly fashion. Then, she accused

harshly, "Do all the Hovington residents lack manners just like you? Is that how you treat the elderly?"

Ben scoffed at her words and he did not bother to hide the sarcasm in his tone as he countered, "I can

be respectful to the people who deserve it. You're not among them, so spare me from your nonsense.

Get out right away after you read the documents. You aren't welcome here."

He heard that the dishonorable woman in front of him dared challenge Joaquin and try to take

Katherine away, so he didn't bother to be friendly toward her.

"You—" Emma almost blew a gasket after he fired the words at her.

At that moment, Joaquin parted his thin lips and chimed in coldly, "You keep saying Kathy is one of the

Rosenburgs. However, you're just using your title as a family elder and your old age to take advantage

of her besides being unreasonable. She let it slip only because she is kind, but I won't let you off the

hook that easily. I hate every sleaze who dares to try my patience, including you. I don't care whether

you're an elder or a child. As long as you try to harm Kathy, you don't deserve my friendliness."

As he said that, he glanced at the documents on the ground before the corners of his lips curled into a

sneer.

"Kathy and Grandma have been telling you that she isn't related to any of you. Since you have trouble

comprehending human words, you should see for yourself. The results have proven that Kathy isn't

related to the Rosenburgs, nor she is your blood."

Emma paused at his statement before she bent down to pick up the documents from the ground.

Once she skimmed through the documents, her face immediately contorted in anger and her hands

trembled uncontrollably.

"No way. That's impossible!" The same sentence was repeated again and again as if she refused to

believe the results.

Joaquin cut to the chase and called out her act without hesitation. "Cut it out. You know the truth better

than anybody else. Back then, Mrs. Cornell broke up with Joshua in April and cut off all ties with him.

She only found out she was pregnant in June of the same year, so she couldn't possibly be carrying a

child of the Rosenburg Family. Look at the section that states Katherine's blood type on the paper. She

has golden blood, but nobody in the Rosenburg Family has the same blood type. Thus, there's no way

Joshua could be her father. What you said is ridiculous."

He spoke each word in a calm but firm manner. Every word struck Emma like a lightning bolt with

unquestionable authority.

The words left her speechless. The papers crumpled in her hands due to her tightening her fingers

around them.

After Joaquin spoke his mind, Ben couldn't help but side with his friend as he mocked, "I heard that the

Rosenburg Family is expecting its ultimate downfall, so your goal is obvious to us. You don't have a

backup plan, so you're desperate to grasp any straw you can reach. You know the truth but use

Katherine as a sacrificial lamb in the alliance marriage with the Brown Family in exchange for your

family's future."

He clicked his tongue. "Old hag, I bet you don't have any conscience. Even though Katherine already

has a partner, you still want to take advantage of her. Do you have no shame at all?"

"You—" Nobody had ever talked to her like that in her whole life. Her breath immediately caught in her

throat and suffocated her. The disadvantage put her at a loss for words, but she couldn't bring herself

to fight back, which frustrated her more.

As the situation took a dramatic turn, she knew she had run out of tricks. Therefore, she tossed the

documents back on the ground and began throwing a tantrum. "Fine. You Olsens have no shame at all!

And Elsie was the worst b*tch among you! One moment she swore loyalty to Joshua and said she

loved him but the next moment, she married Jorge not long after she left Joshua. She was a real

player, always having her eyes on the next one even when she was in a relationship."

Emma's face scrunched up and anger drove her over the edge as she threw insults at the others.

"It seems to me that she had hooked up with Jorge long before we even noticed. She wanted to have

both men, but we saw her true colors. She eventually had no choice but to choose Jorge!" She sneered

before continuing, "It's no surprise, though. A b*tch like she would sleep with every man she came

upon. If it wasn't for Jorge, nobody would ever marry her."

Katherine's expression instantly turned cold, but Jennifer reacted faster. The older woman took a quick

step forward as her eyes were blown wide in anger, glaring an intense hole at Emma.

"Enough with this nonsense or else, I'll make you regret this."

Emma only sneered. Not only did she ignore the warnings, but she even retorted, "Make me regret it?

What are you going to do? Listen carefully, Elsie was a sl*t who was desperate for the men's attention.

She had no shame at all! Her daughter, who is another shameless sl*t, is no different compared to her,

proving the apple doesn't fall far from the tree."

The foul words fueled Jennifer's anger and it turned into fury. She wanted to fight back, but the fury

overwhelmed her mind without warning and she immediately blacked out and fell backward.

"Grandma!"

"Great-grandma!"

The situation spiraled out of control in a split second.

Katherine and Joaquin helped the older woman to her feet with nervous expressions on their faces.

Meanwhile, Noah burst into tears at the sight as she slid down the bed and joined them.

When Ben saw the situation, he rushed out of the room to get the doctor.

Katherine frowned when she took Jennifer's pulse. Just as she was looking for her pouch to perform

acupuncture, Emma's hysterical laugh reached her.

"Did she faint? Or is she dead? She had it coming! You must pay for not helping us, so she deserves it!

All of you should just go with her!"

She let out a laugh as those words left her.

"After all, like mother, like daughter. Katherine, you're just another b*tch! If your grandmother dies, keep

in mind that your decisions led her to death."

Katherine was now posed to strike as an icy look dawned on her face. Her neck snapped in Emma's

direction and her eyes shot daggers at the other woman. If looks could kill, Emma would already be six

feet under.

Icy rage flashed through Katherine's eyes and she leaned forward, ready to lunge at the older woman.

She had only one goal at the moment, which was to kick Emma in the chest with force.

However, Joaquin grabbed her by the wrist and gave her a look.

"It's your top priority to save Grandma. Leave the rest to me."

As he finished his words, he tightened his jaw and raised his voice. "Jeremy!"

A moment later, Jeremy, who had been standing by outside, walked into the room. "What can I do for

you, Mr. Levisay?"

"What are you waiting for?" Joaquin began in a stern voice, evident anger coating his words. "Throw

her out. No Rosenburgs are allowed entry in the building from now on."

Jeremy tensed at Joaquin's outburst before he hurriedly complied. Emma's protest fell on deaf ears as

he dragged her out of the hospital.
