Chapter 236
Savannah's voice pulled Katherine's thoughts back, and Katherine's wits slowly kicked in. Her exquisite
face had a stiff expression on it. A while later, she finally pursed her lips as she looked at Tom,
questioning in an icy voice, "Are you sure that you didn't get the wrong guy?"
Tom himself was wondering how the man who appeared in the video could coincidentally end up in his
backyard. When he heard Katherine's words, he nodded hastily.
"Of course! I've watched the video in detail a few times already!"
He could see that Katherine doubted him, so he quickly stomped his feet and pointed urgently at the
back door.
"If you don't believe me, you can come with me to watch the video. Surely you'll understand after
watching it!"
Seeing how confident he was, Katherine knew in her heart that she had already believed him.
However, it was a matter of great importance, and she had always been a careful person, so she tilted
her head to look at Savannah, then gave the latter a look.
Savannah understood immediately. She quickly got up and said to Tom, "I'll follow you inside for a
look."
Tom had no objections to that as he led her through the back door.
Within five minutes, the two quickly returned.
Savannah's expression was grave as she nodded at Katherine.
Now, Katherine had completely cleared her doubts, but her feelings only got more complicated.
"Boss, what do we do with him now…?"
Noticing her boss' silence, Savannah couldn't quite grasp Katherine's thoughts, so she could only pose
the question tentatively.
Having worked closely with her boss for so many years, she knew all too well the effect the man from
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfive years ago had on Katherine, and she also knew how much Katherine hated him.
But now, with this situation, it really was quite unexpected…
At the side, Katherine still had said nothing. Her clear eyes were filled with complexity as she stared
unblinkingly at the unconscious man.
Just then, Tom, who had been watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
"What is going on? Why did this man suddenly appear in my backyard? And what's up with his
wounds?"
He looked terribly confused as he alternated his gaze between the three people.
This time, Katherine parted her red lips and finally spoke. Her voice was calm as always and even
sounded a little cold.
"From now onward, forget everything you saw today, and don't tell a single soul about this. If someone
comes to you and asks you some questions or inquiries about the man's whereabouts, you have to
pretend you don't know anything. Understand?"
Tom couldn't react in time to her sudden orders, and he clicked his tongue.
"Why? What exactly happened? This man—"
However, before he could finish talking, Katherine shot a frosty glare at him. He immediately silenced
himself out of fear, and he dared not make another sound.
"Just do as you're told. No questions!"
At the side, Savannah reprimanded him in annoyance, then threatened, "If you dare speak a word of
this, you'll wish you were dead!"
Tom was so scared that he shuddered. When he remembered how Katherine flung the knife, he dared
not say 'no' as he nodded furiously, trembling as he promised that he definitely wouldn't say a word.
With both mercy and fury applied, Katherine knew that he had seen for himself how fearsome she was.
It was only then that she slightly eased out of her coldness.
"Don't worry, you've helped me a lot, so I should thank you. I will give you your due reward. Someone
will drop by later to give you a check, so just relax and wait."
After that, she added nonchalantly, "As long as you keep it a secret, the check would be enough to
keep your family alive for three generations."
When Tom heard that, he was naturally pleased. Therefore, he was grinning as he repeated his thanks.
After that, Katherine and Savannah carried Joaquin into the car.
Through the rearview mirror, Savannah looked at the two people in the back, one unconscious and the
other wide awake. She hesitated for a bit before asking, "Boss, where are we going?"
Katherine said coldly, "Back to my place."
Hearing that, Savannah didn't delay any further as she hastily drove toward Katherine's villa in Fontan.
…
Half an hour later, the car pulled up in the yard of a luxurious villa. There were no residents in the area,
and the villa took up a large piece of the land. The scenery was amazing, and most importantly, it was
secure and private.
After helping Joaquin into a room, Katherine saw that his face was pale, so she called Savannah over
to help draw her blood. When Savannah heard the orders, she was both surprised and confused.
"Boss, what are you drawing blood for?"
Katherine decisively rolled up her sleeves as she said straight away, "We may have stopped his
bleeding, but he still lost too much blood. A blood transfusion is in order, or he won't be able to survive."
Hearing that, Savannah was shocked to the core. What? Does she want to give her blood to the man
who forced himself on her five years ago?! Has she gone crazy?
"Boss, even if you want to save him, you don't have to give him your own blood. Do you know his blood
type? I can get some from the blood bank at the hospital nearby!"
"It's no use." Katherine's gaze fell upon the man's pale face as she explained calmly, "He's the same as
me. We both have AB-negative blood."
"But…"
"What are you waiting for? Just draw my blood already. Have you gotten so rebellious that you refuse
to listen to me?" Seeing Savannah's hesitation, Katherine reprimanded her in a crisp voice.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt that, Savannah dared not speak another word as she reluctantly did as she was told. After drawing
the blood, she hastily transfused the blood into Joaquin's body. As she did so, she mumbled in her
heart.
She didn't know who the man was, that he could do such a wretched thing but was still pardoned.
She's willingly giving him her blood. Where is the justice in this?!
After the transfusion, when Savannah saw that the man was still asleep, she could no longer rein in her
curiosity as she asked, "Boss, who exactly is this man? You already knew him, didn't you? Then how
do you plan to deal with him?"
Katherine glanced at her, knowing that she had been waiting to ask these questions. She didn't blame
Savannah for that. After all, she had already told this girl about the incident five years ago.
Furthermore, she trusted Savannah, so there was nothing to hide.
After a moment in silence, she slowly spoke, and her gaze was a little complicated as she looked at
Joaquin.
"He's Joaquin Levisay. My husband."
As soon as Katherine said that, Savannah was stunned.
"Joaquin?! The crippled Joaquin Levisay from the Levisay Family of Hovington?!" She looked in shock
at the man on the bed, but confusion was more apparent in her eyes. "That can't be. This man isn't
crippled."
"He was only faking it before. You weren't in Hovington, so you didn't know that, but most people
already knew about his real identity."
"Oh." It was only then that Savannah nodded in understanding, then she was immediately alarmed
once again. "So, um… You're married to him?!"
"Yes." Katherine nodded.
Savannah felt that this world was too fantastical. How many things have I missed out on just because I
didn't go to Hovington? I didn't even know she got married! Also…
"B-Boss, this is too much of a coincidence! You married… that man from five years ago?!"
