Chapter 223

Chapter 223 

Katherine's phone rang just as she started reading the second novel.When she took a closer look, shenoticed that the caller ID was from the police station.

Katherine raised an eyebrow and picked up the phone.She greeted, "Hello, this is Katherine."

"Hello, Miss Wilson.We're from the Westside Police Station.Do you recall picking up a phone andhanding it over to our station last night?"

"Yes." She answered lightly and waited for the police officer to continue.

The police officer then politely explained, "Well, the owner of the phone has taken it back.However, hetold us that the phone was quite expensive and contained some valuable information.He felt gratefulthat he was able to get back the phone.Now, he wishes to express his gratitude in person.So, MissWilson, can you come here if it's convenient for you?"

Katherine smiled faintly but directly refused.

"Sorry, but it's not convenient for me to go there.Can you just tell him that there's no need to thank me?If there's nothing else, I'll end the call.Thank you"

Katherine then abruptly ended the call.

Meanwhile, in the police station...

The police officer Katherine had been talking to just now suddenly raised his head and informed Zackby saying, "Mr.Colburn, it's not convenient for Miss Wilson to come over.You see, she said that shedoesn't need you to show your gratitude to her..."

Hearing her refusal, Zack lowered his head and looked at the phone he had recently retrieved, placedin his palm.

Katherine's reply was within his expectations.

Without much to say, Zack just nodded and said, "Thank you."

Aidan quickly followed Zack out of the police station after seeing him leaving.

It was early in the second month of Y City.

Although it was only around six o'clock in the evening, Katherine noticed the sky was now completelydark.

Withdrawing her gaze outside the window, Katherine closed the documents in her hand, took out herphone, and then gathered her belongings, intending to go home.

Even before Katherine could pull the door open, Gabrielle suddenly burst from the door and hastenedover in her high heels.

In haste, Gabrielle only stopped when she realized that Katherine was in front of her and curiouslystaring at her.

Gabrielle quickly took a step back after realizing her rashness.

"I apologize, Miss Wilson’ Katherine only smiled and curiously asked, "It's not a big deal.What's thematter?"

Gabrielle raised her eyes to Katherine.

Her expression was terrible.

"The old lady who claimed to be your grandmother this morning showed up again." Katherine's gazeshifted.

"They didn't leave?"

Gabrielle shook her head and answered, "No, they're back, but this time with some famous vlogger anda few photographers; this vlogger is known for uploading her videos about how she helped peoplesolve their problems in life!"

She was in a state of disbelief upon hearing this.

Should Katherine applaud them for using public opinion to compel her to give them money? Katherinelaughed humorlessly.

"So, they're now causing a commotion at the entrance of the building?"

With a serious expression on her face, Gabrielle nodded.

"When the security officers tried to stop them, the old lady sat on the ground and wailed.Now that it'stime to get off work, some employees from nearby companies passed by, and after they witnessedsuch spectacle..."

‘It could be detrimental for you, Miss Wilson” Gabrielle could only think silently.

Just now, she could tell that Katherine's entire demeanor shifted halfway through her sentences, so shedidn't say this out loud.

Katherine seriously looked at Gabrielle and said, "All right"

Didn't Amelia say that she wanted to see her? Then, Katherine would let Amelia see her.

Katherine's face turned cold, but she quickly calmed herself, displaying a faint smile.

"Let's go.Noticing that the situation was not in Katherine's favor, Gabrielle kindly suggested, "MissWilson, why don't you leave using the emergency exit?"

Katherine stepped inside the elevator and cocked her head to look at Gabrielle.

She replied in amusement, "If I leave using the emergency exit, would you be able to help me resolvethis matter?"

After all these years, Amelia's ugly personality had not changed, so Katherine believed that thestubborn old woman would be tough to handle.
