Chapter 248 Earl’s Intention

Katherine wiped her tears and said sadly. "You should have told me in advance. Do you know how scared I was? When those people beat me, they used real strength without hesitation." Then she opened her sleeves and showed a bloody scar. "You see."

"I know, I know." Earl pulled down her sleeve. "If they were not designed by me, they had already beaten on your face."

He continued to say, "If you hadn’t really gotten hurt, how would Charles be softhearted, how would he bring you home at once? These days are a good chance to regain Charles’s heart, you must grab it back."

When it came to Charles, Katherine’s eyes were shining with excitement. “Yeah, of course, Charles can only be mine.” Then asked Earl like a trial. “Dad, you designed everything yesterday. The experiment and the gun battle are not just to make Charles softhearted. Tell, is there any secret that I don’t know?”

Earl pinched her nose. "There is another reason, but it is still relevant to you." He asked, "Do you know the relationship between Bella and Edwin?"

Katherine hatefully said, "Of course I know. I disliked Edwin when I was young, but I didn't expect that he still looked down on people as before. He is disgusted. As for Bella, she is nastier than she used to be."

Earl said, "Edwin has taken over the Bryson Research Institute and he is now planning to cooperate with Charles. Do you know what will happen if Charles and he cooperate?"

Katherine shook her head. "It means you will lose an important partner."

Earl shook his head. "This is only one aspect. More importantly, as long as Charles agrees to cooperate with Edwin, this is to say that he has already identified Edwin as his brother-in-law. It is equivalent to acknowledging that Bella is his wife. If Charles gives up cooperating with us, this also means that he has abandoned you."

Katherine immediately panicked. "Business is just business. He doesn't choose to cooperate with you, maybe it’s because he thinks it’s more profitable to cooperate with Edwin rather than you?"

"My fool daughter." Earl shook his head. "Even Charles is a businessman, he definitely doesn’t care about a billion dollars. This is the first time that he operates a biological laboratory business, he must choose the closest person as his professional partner. In the past, because you are his closest person, he will consider cooperating with our institute on many businesses. But now, if he thinks that Bella is his closest person, then he will choose Edwin." Earl poked Katherine's head. "Why can’t you understand such a simple thing? Although making money is important, it's important to be safe. If you want a safe business, you have to choose people you trust. If he cooperates with Edwin, it means that he doesn’t trust you anymore."

Katherine suddenly understood, she held Earl anxiously. "Dad, what should I do now? We can’t decide whom Charles wants to cooperate with. What should we do?"

"It depends on your competence. As long as you regain Charles’s heart of Charles, we will win."

"But what if he has already decided to cooperate with Edwin before I win his heart back?" Katherine became very nervous.

It was not because she wasn’t a confident person, but that she just had found that she lost all the sources of her confidence.

She used to think that her condition was much better than Bella. Bella was a poor girl, but she was the daughter of Mr. Spencer. Bella dropped out of a college, but she was a top student from the Royal Academy of Music. Bella was just a surrogate mother, she had Charles’ love and commitment.

But now, everything changed.

Bella became Leo’s daughter who Earl once worked for. As for the diploma, as long as Bella wanted, Edwin must be willing to use all means to pave the way for her. Charles wanted to break up with her because of Bella, he even once showed his love of Bella in front of her.

Everything had already changed.

She lost all her confidence.

Earl saw Katherine frustrated and touched her head gently, his eyes became cold. "Then I have a way to ensure him to choose us."

Katherine’s eyes suddenly brightened, “What’s it?”

Earl said, "You don't need to know these things. Sometimes it's very difficult to hide things that you already know. The less you know, the less defense Charles will have towards you. It doesn't matter if he suspects me, but you must be innocent in front of him."

Katherine plunged into Earl's arms. "Thank you, Dad, I love you."

Earl’s eyes followed her hair direction, gradually getting darker.

In the next few days, Charles took care of Katherine as carefully as possible. As long as there was nothing necessary to do in the company, whenever Katherine called him, he would find her for the first time.

One day, Earl walked into Charles’s study room, handed over a stack of reports in his hand.

Charles quickly browsed again, staring tightly at somewhere. After a moment of thinking, he asked Earl, "Are you sure?"

Earl said, "I have checked twice. My lord, you can check it again if you have more advanced equipment."

Charles replied, "This thing is very important, my people will recheck it. Can you give me the serum of Katherine, or should I go to take Katherine’s blood again?"

"Don't take Katherine’s blood." Earl quickly stopped him. "Katherine has been scared since the day she was kidnapped. If you want to draw her blood again, she must be crazy."

"So, what does Mr. Spencer mean?"

"I still have a half tube of the remaining serum, if the Lord believes in me, you can use it."

Charles replied politely. "I believe that Mr. Spencer will chat about your own daughter."

"Thanks for your trust, my Lord."

Charles waved his hand and Ziv immediately took a box and walked to Earl.

Earl put half of the blood into the box.

Charles then continued, "I will ask people to test it right now."

As Ziv just left, Charles’s mobile phone rang, it was from Katherine.

Charles picked up the phone and said only one word, "OK." Then he stood up.

Earl also stood up and said to Charles, "I will go back, my Lord, please take good care of Katherine."

Charles said, "I saved her the same as she had saved me before, it is my duty to take good care of her."

Earl hesitated and asked, "Tomorrow is the mayor’s daughter’s birthday, will you go, my Lord?"

Charles answered, "It depends on my work arrangement."

Earl nodded and no longer asked more.

Charles saw he was going to leave and asked, "Mr. Spencer doesn’t want to go to see Katherine?"

Earl paused and said, "I have been there just now."

Charles looked at Earl's back and smiled. What did Earl want him to do? How could he even plot his daughter like this?
