Chapter 185
Catherine fell into a chair upon receiving the bombshell news.

After Summit went down, it was likely that Jeffery plotted to murder her grandmother in order to inherit the stocks to Hudson Corporation?

“No, that’s impossible. She’s his mother, after all.”

Wesley heaved a sigh. “Jeffery is accustomed to being in a position of power his whole life. You might not know this but people can do anything in order to maintain a life full of wealth and influence. Since the beginning of time, there have been records of blood brothers attacking each other, fighting to become the successor to an affluent family. Besides, your grandma was paralyzed before this. He probably regarded her as a burden.”

Aunty Wendy nodded along. “Also, I never once believed your grandma becoming paralyzed was an accident. Rebecca came to Plum Garden that day and your grandma fell from the second floor not long after she went up. She claimed that Old Madam lost her footing but the latter has always been fit and healthy, so I don’t believe that.”

Catherine raised her gaze from the ground as a shudder passed through her.

How could a person be that savage to harm her own grandmother?

“I bet she must’ve found out about your relationship with Hudson and that you’re not Jeffery’s birth daughter,” Aunty Wendy guessed.

“Aunty Wendy, you should’ve told me about this earlier.” Catherine felt extremely guilty.

“I really wanted to but the Jones family put out a search warrant for me. I’m guessing Jeffery wasn’t satisfied not knowing where the other 30% of stocks have gone, or maybe he wants to kill me so I can take this secret to the grave. That’s why I’ve been living in seclusion, not daring to show my face in public.”

Aunty Wendy gripped Catherine’s hands. “Look for one of the stockholders in Hudson named Chris Jefferson. Your mom saved his life before. He has the necessary documents.”
