Wilfred walked in.
Unlike last night, today he was accompanied by a young woman.
"So, you're Caitlin's grandfather, Fortune Kensington?" Sophie asked, crossing her arms as she looked down at him.
"That's right, I'm Fortune Kensington!" Fortune mustered his strength to meet Sophie's gaze.
He was Caitlin's grandfather, and he wouldn't let anyone look down on him.
Sophie narrowed her eyes. "Old man, I suggest you cooperate and give that piece of land back to Mayo. Otherwise, not only will you be in deep trouble, but I imagine your precious little fake granddaughter will be dragged down with you."
Although Fortune didn't recognize Sophie, he could tell she was cut from the same cloth as Wilfred. "And who do you think you are? You think someone like you can bully our Catie? Just you wait. When my Catie gets here, you'll all be sorry."
"Sorry?" Sophie scoffed. "If I remember correctly, Apex moved its headquarters to The Capital and kicked Caitlin out, didn't they? What makes you think she has any power to fight me now?"
To rid himself of Caitlin's supposed entanglement, Victor had moved the company to The Capital six months ago.
Standing to the side, Wilfred added sarcastically, "Be careful, Miss Barrett. The old man claims his granddaughter isn't just the head of Apex, but also the heiress to the Gonzales family and Master Ninth's girlfriend! If you cross her, you'll be in for it."
Although news of Miss Gonzales and Master Ninth's relationship had surfaced online, Twitter's reach was limited.
Besides, Sophie had been busy scheming against Mayo's ex-wife and tending to Mayo himself. She had no time to keep up with trending topics.
So, even now, Sophie had no idea that Caitlin was the very same Miss Gonzales who was dating Gordon.
Sophie dismissed the claims with a mocking laugh.
Heiress to the Gonzales family?
Master Ninth's girlfriend?
The old man was delusional.
A washed-up woman like Caitlin couldn't even land a regular man, let alone Master Ninth.
"Well then, I'd love to see what that little bitch Caitlin can do to me!" With that, Sophie pulled a syringe from her purse.
The syringe was filled with a red liquid.
Sophie pushed the plunger slightly, expelling the excess air. A droplet of the blood arced through the air.
Sophie's voice was like a venomous hiss. "You brought this on yourself, old man!"
She wouldn't just give Fortune AIDS.
She would make sure Caitlin got it too.
Just wait. Caitlin's good days were about to come to an end.
Fortune cried out in despair, "Catie! Catie, where are you?"
"What are you yelling for? Hold still!" Wilfred strode over and kicked Fortune. "You can scream your lungs out, but no one is coming to save you!"
As if his calls had been heard.
BAM!
A loud crash resounded as the door was kicked open from the outside.
"Grandpa!"

Can you please publish another novel - sorry for your loss, its me am the loss...
So happy for Carey, the reunion with her family is touching. Can we read more of Caitlin and Gordon? Readers are forgetting that Caitlin has a boyfriend by the way. Is it normal for their relationship to be erased in the storyline?...
Update please......
But where is Gordon?...
Great story, great author!...
