Chapter 123 

The vase fell on the ground with a loud bang.

In an instant, the vase broke into many pieces.

Katherine slammed against the cabinet where the vase was placed.

As she stood, her face twitched because of the pain.

Sean was surprised that Queenie could do that to Katherine.

He knew that Simon would be furious because he spent time and effort to buy that vase.

‘Queenie knows how much Uncle Simon adores that vase; Sean thought to himself.

He shook his head in dismay because he didn't expect Queenie to push Katherine and blame her for it.

As soon as the vase fell on the ground, Queenie shrieked in dismay.

"Oh my goodness! What did you do?! if you want pictures of the vase, just take pictures!" Queenieshouted angrily at Katherine.

"Are you that clumsy that you can't even stand properly?" Queenie asked and glared at Katherine.

Queenie bravely spoke because only three people were in the room.

Sean was her cousin, and she was sure that he would choose her over Katherine.

Queenie hadn't realized, but Katherine knew that Queenie was up to something.

When Queenie offered Katherine a tour and asked her to take a picture of the vase, Katherine noticeda camera parallel to where she stood.

The camera's angle had only recorded her fall, which seemed to show that she bumped into thecabinet by herself.

Queenie saw that Katherine wasn't responding.

Queenie continued to scream and said curse words to Katherine.

Sean couldn't bear to see how his cousin blatantly shouted at Katherine, so he pulled her away.

Queenie glared at Sean.

"Why are you pulling me away? It was Katherine who broke the vase, not me!" she said frustratingly.

Because of Queenie's screams, Beatrice came down to the living room from the second floor.

"Queenie, why are you screaming? What's the problem? What happened?" she immediately asked.

As Queenie saw her mother, she quickly went to her and complained about what had happened.

"Mom, Katherine broke Dad's vase!" she said as she pointed at Katherine.

Beatrice's brows furrowed as she failed to understand what her daughter meant.

But when she saw the broken vase, her face turned pale.

"What in the world happened here? What happened to this vase?" she asked as she came near thevase's fragments.

Once again, Queenie glared at Katherine.

"Who else could it be other than Katherine? She wanted to take pictures of the vase and capture it froma good angle.But because she stood sloppily, she lost her balance and fell? “ Queenie explained to

Beatrice.

Queenie chuckled and crossed her arms.

"I'm pretty sure it was intentional" she continued.

That vase was Simon's favorite vase.

He never let anyone touch it aside from himself.

He would clean it every once in a while so it wouldn't be dirty.

Simon placed the vase near the door because he wanted to see it every day.

Beatrice didn't want to make a big deal out of it, but she had no choice.

"Miss Wilson, I'm sorry, but you created a big mess.What are you going to do about this?" Beatriceasked Katherine coldly.

Katherine, who was silent the whole time, found the opportunity to speak.

"Do you want me to compensate for the vase?" she straightforwardly asked.

Queenie clicked her tongue in astonishment.

"Compensate? How will you pay for a vase worth more than $600,000? You must be kidding” she saidsarcastically to Katherine.

"Can you afford it? This vase is a historical treasure.You can't just buy that anywhere" she continued.

Queenie's face turned red from anger.

"You know what, I shouldn't have brought you here.After a long time, I still can't stand your attitude!"Queenie suddenly said.

Sean felt that he shouldn't just stand there and watch them fight.

"Queenie, stop it.That's too much!" he said as he tried to pull her away from the commotion.

Queenie removed Sean's grip on her wrist and faced him furiously.

"Why are you saying that to me? It wasn't me who broke the vase.If she weren't clumsy, the vasewouldn't be shattered into pieces" she said stubbornly and stomped her foot.

Queenie wanted to protest more, but Sean's gaze made her silent.

She was afraid that Sean would tell Beatrice the truth, that it was her who pushed Katherine, whichcaused the vase to fall from the cabinet.

Katherine gave Sean a meaningful smile.

"I was indeed naive and ignorant while taking pictures that I failed to pay attention to the expensivevase" she said.

Beatrice observed Katherine's actions.

Katherine was calm and had a blank face throughout the conversation.

Because of this, Beatrice was no longer amused by Katherine.

It seemed as if Katherine didn't want to admit her mistake and had no regrets whatsoever.

"Miss Wilson, I believe that you're not in the position to say that.Queenie is right.You have tocompensate us for the vase" she said coldly.

"By the way, regarding the compensation, it will be decided by my husband" she continued.

Katherine chuckled and nodded at Beatrice.

Just then, Katherine's phone rang.

Katherine took a glance at Beatrice.

"I'm sorry, Mrs.Johnston.I'll be contacting you soon.I need to answer this call" she immediately said.

Because of Katherine's excuse, Beatrice became enraged.

But she couldn't do anything since the call might be more important than the vase.
