Contract Marriage with Devil Billionaire

"Your father has difficulty walking; you know that," Dora frowned, "Before I left, he asked me to visit your sister because he felt guilty for slapping her. However, he did lose his legs because of her. She forgets that, but I really don't think your dad can save you this time."

When Kate was reminded of her father's inability to walk, she felt confused. No matter how cruel he had been to her, he was still her father. Kate knew Dora was right and that Leo lost his legs when he and Anna got in the car accident on the way to pick her up.

Cassie noticed that Kate wasn't reacting to anything; she was afraid that she would let Anna get away with her crimes. She told Kate, "Even if people blame you for the accident, that has nothing to do with these two evil women. Don't let your guilt get the best of you."

"Cassie Smith, mind your own business!" Dora shouted, still trying to save her daughter.

"Kate is my daughter-in-law. I will get even with whoever hurts her," Cassie said determinedly.

Kate was very touched by Cassie's words. Though she and Joseph did not get along very well, at least his mother treated her like a daughter.

Dora was speechless.

"Do you really want to save your daughter?" Kate asked as she tried to come up with a plan. She wondered how Dora would react if she had to pick between the White family's wealth or her daughter.

"What do you mean?" Dora asked in confusion.

Joseph looked at Kate; he had so many questions and concerns. He had no idea what Kate was thinking, and he was worried.

"I will give you two choices; give up all of the White family's wealth, or have your daughter go to jail."

Dora erupted like a volcano, "I knew you just wanted to kick us out of the family, but I never expected that you would threaten me like this! Forget it! I will not give up!"

"You're right. I have always wanted you to leave. My mother built the White Group and left it to me. Your existence only pollutes it!" Kate would never have been so cruel if they hadn't hurt her so much. She had to stand up for herself, though, or else they would continue to bully her.

When Cassie heard Kate's ultimatum, she commented, "Kate, it was always her dream to be a rich woman. To achieve her dream, she was willing to be Leo's mistress for years. If you take the money away from her, it would be worse than losing her daughter."

"No, I don't agree," Dora refused, "The White family belongs to me. I will not leave even when I die!"

"Do you hear that, Anna? I gave your mother an option, but she chose the money over you," Kate scoffed, looking at Anna, kneeling on the floor.

Dora squatted next to her daughter and rubbed her back, "You will only be in jail for a few years. It will be okay. After you are released, you…"

"Mom!" Anna collapsed and cried in front of everyone, "Have you forgotten everything I went through the past two years? Every day, every hour, even every second was torturous. And now, you want me to continue suffering? I listened to you and wasted two years. If you give me up, I will…"

"Shut up!" Dora was afraid that Anna would tell everyone what they did two years earlier. She swiftly covered Anna's mouth and scolded, "What are you saying? Why are you so upset? Don't make a fool of yourself in front of so many people, okay?"

"I will count to three, and then I need your final answer," Kate said sternly.

"You can do what you chose, Mom," Anna said as she plotted how to get revenge on Kate. Joseph was still in the room, so she had to be careful, though, "I will be as careful as possible, and I will continue to be strong."

Cassie thought about the car accident hoax she came up with two years earlier; she had no choice in the situation, "Okay, I will give up the White family if you let Anna go this time."

"Did you hear that, President Joseph?" Kate turned around to ask Joseph, "I hope you can testify on my behalf."

Joseph felt uncomfortable when Kate called him President Joseph. He understood that they did not have an intimate relationship, but the title made him feel even more isolated from her.

"Of course, I will," Joseph replied.

Anna was crushed to hear Joseph's answer; it felt like he stabbed her and left her to die.

"It is settled then. Please get out of my house NOW!" Kate demanded not even worried about where they would go. She also mentioned, "By the way, only take your belongings. Do not take anything that belongs to me! If I find out that you have, you will be in even more trouble."

Dora was enraged. The only hope she and Anna had would be if Leo begged Kate to allow them to stay. She prayed he would since they had been married for so long.

"Wait!" Joseph called to them suddenly.

Kate was alarmed; she assumed he was going to try to stop her from kicking Dora and Anna out of her house.

"Joseph?" Anna asked cheerfully; she was thrilled that he was going to help her.

"Joseph, if you…" Cassie scolded him in advance as a warning. He nodded and put his hand up to tell his mother she did not need to say anything more.

"The proper person to inherit White Group is Kate, not Dora. I think you know what you must do next, correct, Mrs. White?" Joseph glared at Dora.

Dora was appalled by what Joseph was insinuating; she froze in her tracks.

Kate could not believe that Joseph was standing by her.

Cassie was thrilled, "Thank you, my son. You should have done this sooner."

"Joseph, why are you attacking my mother when she is already down? If she does not have White Group, we will have nothing," Anna cried with frustration.

"That is the whole reason. Don't you understand?" Joseph smirked.

Anna was frightened; she shook her head in disbelief, "No, Joseph! I am the one you love! You cannot treat me this way!"

"I've said that I hate dishonesty!" Joseph emphasized each word, "We are done, forever!"

Anna fell to the ground as if a huge mountain landed on her shoulders.

"Excellent!" Cassie applauded her son, "You should have seen her true personality long ago. The entire time, she cheated you and framed Kate. She almost forced you to let go of the one who truly loves you."
