hapter 351 Stellar Acting

Kate’s greed was written on her face, and Saul secretly viewed her in contempt.

Truth be told, Saul felt displeased that he had spent millions buying jewelry for Kate just so she could put in a good word for him.

“What are you saying, Kate? I couldn’t possibly visit you empty–handed, right?” Saul said insincerely. “Plus, it’s thanks to the Stewarts that the Masseys got to where we are now.

“We should be thanking you, too! If you hadn’t raised a daughter who became the CEO of Southlake Corporation, things wouldn’t be going so smoothly for both our families in Southlake City!”

Saul’s words made Kate feel even giddier, and she eyed him in satisfaction. If not for her, Willow wouldn’t have achieved her present success. The Stewarts and Masseys wouldn’t be enjoying their current status either.

Willow was now aware that Kate wasn’t her biological daughter, but despite their somewhat frayed relationship, she was still Willow’s mother.

After laughing, Kate smiled smugly as she loudly instructed the nearest maid, “Make us a pot of the finest coffee in the house!”

Saul was disgruntled, of course. It had been half an hour since his arrival, and he hadn’t even been served a drink yet.

Kate had been too busy admiring the jewelry.

“Why did you spend all that money, Saul? Do you need my help with something?” Kate asked as she sipped her coffee.

As people said, there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. She believed Saul’s abrupt visit meant he needed a favor.

“Oh, I’ll have to let you know that I can’t lend you any money. The Stewarts are expanding their businesses, too. We can’t afford to lend money to anyone else,” Kate added.

Saul curled his lips, Recently, Kate spent all her time boasting that Carl had earned close to a billion dollars. Everyone knew about it now.

Naturally, he wouldn’t say anything about it now. Still smiling, he said, “I’m not here to borrow money from you, Kate.”

“That’s good then,” Kate said in relief. She was obsessed with money and loathed it when people tried to borrow money from her. It didn’t matter who it was. She would never lend her money to anyone.
