No Longer Significant “Why didn't you Criticize the Yoeger family for being shameless when Hector

used my granny to resolvethe company's crisis then?” Kathleen rebuked icily.

“Besides, Hector knew that my granny was pregnant and still insisted on Marrying her.

This clearly meant he only caredabout the things my granny had! If it weren't for my granny, you guys

would have been starving on the streets! Forget about two million.

You wouldn't even have twenty thousand!” Sheer rage caused Zachary to glare at her.

“My granny was too kind.” Kathleen glowered as she added, “My mother was the child that Hector

tossed away.

If it weren't because of my granny being nice for old time's sake, you wouldn't have received any

money!” “Y-You!” Zachary raised his palm high, ready to strike Kathleen's cheek.

However, Charles zipped over to defend Kathleen.

Wynnie thundered, “Zachary! If you dare touch Kate even once, I'll have you sent to jail!” Zachary was

at a loss for words as he knew Wynnie was truly capable of such a thing.

“I forgot to mention that this mansion also belongs to Kate.

So, you guys had better pack up and leave at once!” said a scoffing Wynnie.

When Zachary heard that, he felt both a grueling heat and a nipping chill across his face.

It shocked him that all he had inherited was the monthly two million allowance and nothing else.

D*mn it! Dad was too soft-hearted.

He should've killed Rebecca when he had the chance.

That way, these two rotten brats wouldn't have shown up now to receive the family inheritance! “Get

lost.” An air of hostility emanated from Wynnie while she spoke.

“I'll also have you behind bars if you insist on hogging someone else's property!” Zachary gritted his

teeth but could not do anything at that point.

Thus, he phoned some people to help move his things out.

Meanwhile, Yareli did not budge that entire time.

Wynnie's pointed gaze landed on her.

“Ms.Yoeger, I trust that you don't need me to repeat my words.” A vile sneer lurked on Yareli's face.

“It looks like you've got quite the help, Kathleen.” “You guys brought all of this upon yourselves,” replied

Kathleen, who bore an impassive countenance.

“Hah.” Yareli scoffed, “Say, I wonder why Grandma was so foolish to end her life the night you arrived.

What poor timing.” Charles' gaze turned steely at once.

“Quit with your schemes.

Granny left a posthumous letter before she died.” A posthumous letter? Yareli clenched her jaw in

response.

“Huh.

I can't believe it.

How come I don't know about this?” “The posthumous letter was addressed to Kathleen.

Why would anyone have to tell you about it?” Sarcasm dripped from Charles' voice as he questioned,

“Who you think you are?” Yareli snorted.

“This isn't over, Kathleen.” She then spun on her heel to go upstairs.

Kathleen's gaze remained downcast on her legs, not a trace of warmth visible on her delicate face.

“Ignore her, Kate.” Wynnie consoled, “She's all bark and no bite.” “Her words don't bother me,” said

Kathleen.

“Good.” Wynnie nodded before stating, “I'll be off now since I have many matters to deal with.” “Okay.

Thank you so much for all your efforts, Mrs.Macari.” “Silly child.

There's no need to be so formal with me,” said Wynnie, who had no idea how to react when Kathleen

called her “Ms.

Macari.” While she knew she needed to accept it eventually, she could not help feeling odd.

After all, Kathleen used to call her “Mom” or “Wynnie.” Ugh.

It's all Samuel's fault! How upsetting! “I'll be off now.” Wynnie soon turned to leave.

Following that, Kathleen pursed her lips, feeling concerned.

“Charles, Mrs.Macari seems sad.” “Samuel may be heartless, but his parents and grandma truly do

adore you.” Charles elaborated, “However, they understand your decision.” Kathleen nodded.

“So, how do you plan to deal with this place?” Charles looked over at the Yoeger residence.

“I'm going to sell it.” Unwavering determination filled Kathleen's tone.

“There's no point keeping it since we would never move in.

Of course, if Zachary and the others desire this place, then I'll consider selling it to them.

After all, I would never give it to them for free.

They're not worthy.” “All right.

I'll handle that then.” “I'm going to pack up Granny's things.” Upon hearing Kathleen's words, Charles

nodded.

“Okay.” The former then headed to Frances' room while the latter waited in the living room.

In the meantime, Wynnie had just left the Yoeger residence when she noticed that Samuel's car was

parked by the road, so she walked over.

Inside the car sat Samuel, who did not lower his windows.

It seemed as though he did not want to talk to his mother.

Wynnie then pounded his window with her fist.

That left Samuel helpless as he opened the door.

“Mom, what are you doing?” “I should be asking you that,” Wynnie remarked in a chiding tone.

“I can't believe it.

Kate has lost her memories and no longer loves you.” “Mom, I'm your son.” “You don't have to remind

me.” What came next was a heartless comment from Wynnie.

“I've already got a grandson and granddaughter, so you're no longer significant to me.” Samuel bit

down on his lip, not saying a word.

Nevertheless, Wynnie continued to lecture her son, “I just want to say that you shouldn't have treated

Kate the way you did back then.

Do you remember? You were so rushed to see Nicolette once that you dumped Kate alone in the

middle of the road.

She had to fend for herself against a drunkard.

Now that I think about it, your current state is truly a work of karma.” Silence was still the only thing

Samuel had to offer.

“All right.

I'm done nagging.

Hmph! It's all your fault that Kate is calling me Mrs.

Macari now.” Having said that, Wynnie left a gloomy Samuel.

She's lecturing me over this? Although, I have been nagged at plenty of times over these past few

years.

I suppose I'm used to it by now.

Sometime later, Kathleen and Charles walked out of the Yoeger residence.

Samuel got out of his car.

His sudden arrival took Kathleen aback.

Why is he here? Subsequently, he strolled over to her and said, “Eil and Desi miss you a lot.” “Oh.”

Kathleen nodded before replying, “I'll go over right now.” Samuel reached out to take the items in her

hand, stating, “Hop in.

I'm heading home too.” Kathleen froze, slightly dumbstruck, and wanted to reject.

Before she could do that, Samuel had already held her hand, leading her into his car.

Charles crossed his arms as his intent gaze focused on the two.

Kathleen did not refuse Samuel at that point.

After all, she had been busy for three whole days, so she was missing the kids too.

It did not take long for Samuel to get her into his car and drive away.

The entire thing made Charles chuckle bitterly.

Jeez, that...

Samuel! How could he leave me behind? Am I not worthy of visiting my own nephew and niece?

Meanwhile, in the car, Samuel's chilly frown could send chills down one's spine.

Kathleen's cautious and unwavering gaze was on the dashboard at all times.

“You should slow down.” Her words caused Samuel's handsome but taut face to darken.

Even so, he compliantly drove slower.

Kathleen puffed up her cheeks, pouting.

“Don't make me remind you next time.” Next time? Samuel's husky voice immediately asked, “Are you

still willing to ride with me?” “I don't want to,” Kathleen icily denied.

“It's just that Eil and Desi often travel in your car.” Samuel was speechless upon hearing that.

Like him, Kathleen wordlessly stared outside the car window.

The scene felt as though the two had returned to the past before Kathleen lost her memories.

Back then, she never really paid attention or responded to him either.

“What are your plans from this point on?” Samuel tried to revive a spark in their dying conversation.

“Teach the Hoover family a lesson.” Kathleen frostily added, “I'm going to get to the bottom of things.

I need to know whether the Hoovers were involved with what happened to my mom.” Samuel's lips

thinned into a line.

“I heard you've been starting a company? Are you not operating that entertainment company alongside

Charles anymore?” “I'm not interested in that.

I'd much prefer researching and developing unique medications.

After all, that can help improve other people's lives.” Samuel offered gravelly, “Don't hesitate to ask me

if you ever need help.” “There's no need for that,” responded Kathleen flatly.

“I'll ask Caleb if I need anything.”
