Chapter 247 It Wasn’t an Accident

In the hospital, Linda was in a state of disarray. She sat with the police to take statements. Her

professional outfit was still stained with a lot of blood. Her hair, which had always been arranged

meticulously, looked a bit messy at the moment.

However, her strong professionalism allowed her to cooperate under such circumstances calmly. It was

really surprising. After the police had finished taking statements, Catherine went straight up and walked

to Linda’s side.

Linda was about to speak when she saw Catherine, but the expression on her face immediately

changed when she saw Audrey behind Catherine.

Catherine could tell what Linda meant right away. She turned her head to Audrey and looked at her

with an expressionless face.

“I’m thirsty.”

As soon as she heard Catherine say she was thirsty, Audrey immediately said anxiously, “I’ll go buy

you water then. You ran in such a hurry just now. It’s normal that you get thirsty. You just wait for me

here!”

After saying that, Audrey ran away in a hurry. Catherine turned back to look at Linda. Before she said

something, Linda took the initiative to introduce the basic situations, displaying the competence of a

professional secretary to the fullest.

“Miss Swann, Leonel is seriously injured, but his life isn’t in danger. His leg bone is broken. The doctors

are still examining his other injuries.”

Catherine breathed a soft sigh of relief, but her face continued to show a calm demeanor. Her cold

gaze went over Linda’s body carefully.

“Are you all right?”

“Miss Swann, thanks for your concern. I’m fine. Leonel and I discussed the project about an hour ago.

It wasn’t long after we left the company that there was a car accident.”

Linda looked at Catherine with a strange look for a moment after she finished speaking. It didn’t take a

guess for Catherine to realize that there was something in her words. “Just tell me!”

Linda nodded and lowered her voice, whispering, “Miss Swann, I suspect that this is not an accidental

car accident but a deliberate murder. The other party drove toward us with no intention of slowing down

at all.”

Fortunately, Leonel had a quick reaction and turned the direction of the car at a fast speed to minimize

the damage while shielding Linda at the same time.

Otherwise, Linda would be the one lying in the hospital bed right now. Thinking of these things, Linda

couldn’t help but want to tear the other party apart. Catherine’s calm eyes instantly became cold.

“This is not an accidental car accident but a deliberate murder…”

These chilling words kept coming to Catherine’s mind. She exuded a terrifying aura all over her body.

Leonel had always served the Swann Corporation and was the chief lawyer of the Swann Corporation

legal team. He hadn’t offended anyone over the years.

Now that he suddenly had an accident, Catherine seriously suspected that this matter had something

to do with her.

Linda looked at Catherine with some concern. The reason why she didn’t dare to say these words in

front of Audrey was that she was worried that this matter would be leaked out.

Lowering her voice, she came close to Catherine’s side and gave her a reminder. “Miss Swann, I

suspect that this matter has something to do with the cooperation project we signed with Mr. David.

Now that Leonel and I are in trouble at the same time, you’d better be careful too.’

Catherine narrowed her eyes slightly at Linda. A chilling light appeared in her eyes, and her voice was

cold to the bone.

“You mean, it was Korbin?”

Linda didn’t dare to nod her head, but her eyes were looking straight at Catherine. Linda wasn’t fully

certain who did it, but at the moment, Korbin was the most suspicious. Korbin was Catherine’s father,

so Linda couldn’t say it bluntly.

Linda looked at Catherine carefully after she finished speaking.

She originally thought Catherine would be unable to control her emotions. After all, Catherine was just

a little girl. Even if she was a bit smarter than an average person, it was normal for her to be unable to

remain calm in the face of such a crucial matter of life and death.

But to her surprise, Catherine’s expression remained unchanged after learning that the object of

suspicion was her father.

The only thing Linda could sense was that Catherine’s aura was constantly strengthening, and the

surrounding air pressure became cold due to her powerful aura.

Just when she was hesitating whether to say something or not, Catherine opened her mouth to say

something.

Catherine’s gaze was clear and cold as she looked at Linda. The end of her beautiful eyes was slightly

upturned, carrying an appalling domineering aura.

“I’ll arrange for someone to look into this matter. I’ll also arrange for someone to protect you and

Leonel. Leave the rest to me!”

Leonel and Linda were the people who worked for her, so they were her people. Since those people

dared to touch her people, they would have to pay a corresponding price. For some reason,

Catherine’s words made Linda feel inexplicably secure.

Catherine was born with leadership abilities and convincing abilities. If it were someone else who had

said something like that, Linda would have mocked them in her heart for their self- importance.

But Catherine made her believe it, and she was silently relieved. There was a sound of footsteps

coming. It was Audrey who rushed back after buying water. Audrey handed Catherine a bottle of water

in her hand. “Kathy, here you go!

Audrey reacted only after Catherine took the water. She reached out, planning to get the water bottle

back.” Catherine, I’ll open it for you!”

At the moment she spoke, Catherine had already unscrewed the bottle cap. She handed Audrey the

bottle of water that had been opened. After that, she took the unopened bottle in Audrey’s hand and

opened it to drink. Watching the interaction between the two from the sidelines, Linda was a little

shocked inside.

Looking at Catherine’s attitude toward the Swanns, Linda had originally thought that Catherine was

carrying a great deal of hatred toward the Swanns inside.

After all, Catherine had been labeled as “jinx” since she was a child. She was sent to the countryside

and suffered a lot.

Linda thought that this experience, which was difficult for normal people to experience, was highly likely

to make Catherine become cold, indifferent, and even hate everything.

However, based on the relationship between Catherine and Audrey, Linda realized that her previous

subjective judgment was wrong. Catherine didn’t hate everything, and she was clear about what to love

and what to hate.

There was no disdain in Audrey’s eyes when she looked at Catherine, and she treated Catherine with

warmth and friendship. Catherine treated Audrey with the same attitude, giving her the greatest care.

Johnathan had always despised Catherine, and in return, Catherine had given him a severe whipping.

So, Linda figured that if she was loyal to Catherine, Catherine would definitely be nice to her.

Audrey looked at Catherine and Linda. Only when she saw that both of them were quite calm did she

dare to inquire,

“Is Leonel all right?”

Catherine glanced at Audrey and spoke in a cold voice, “He’s fine. He just broke a leg and a rib or two!”

Hearing her say such horrible words in such an extremely calm manner, Audrey almost fainted.

He just broke a leg?

And a rib or two?

This was called he was fine?

Audrey could feel the pain by hearing those words, but Catherine was able to say it with such a calm

face. Catherine was really impressive.

After half an hour, the doctor came out and told them that the patient had woken up. Considering all the

safety issues, the hospital only allowed one family member or friend to enter the ward to visit.

Linda asked Catherine to visit Leonel without even thinking about it. “Miss Swann, you go. Maybe

Leonel wants to talk to you.”

“Okay!” Catherine gave a grunt and nodded in agreement. She understood what Linda meant.
