Chapter 68 Joseph Knows the Truth

Lisa tried to break the tension, "Joseph, Kate praised about how wonderful the soup was."

"That's fine. I will pass that along to my mother," Joseph said, looking at Kate, but Kate now was staring at Lisa.

"Kate, I have to go back to the tea shop. It has been hectic. Joseph will stay with you until I can come back later," Lisa understood that Kate was angry with Joseph because she had feelings for him. She hoped that Kate would be happier if she spent some time with him.

"Lisa, I have sent someone to help with your shop so that you can stay here with Kate," Joseph explained.

"Well…" Lisa did not know what to do. Seeing Kate's begging eyes, she agreed to stay longer.

After Joseph left, Lisa asked, frowning, "Kate, why don't you allow Joseph to help you? I can see that he is sincere."

"Don't be confused by his pretense. He did all just to compensate for what Anna did," Kate's plan to seek revenge on Anna when she was recovered played continuously in her mind.

"To compensate?" Lisa knew Kate miscarried a baby but did not know what it had to do with Anna.

"You mean you are here because of Anna?" Lisa asked in confusion.

Kate took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and then told Lisa everything.

"How could she dare to that to you?" Lisa was furious, "I will make her pay!"

"Don't you worry about it. I will not let Anna get away with it!"

"You say Anna kicked your abdomen?" Lisa was confused because it was different from what Joseph told her.

"If I hadn't suddenly got horrible cramps, I would not be here," Kate gently touched her stomach, recalling the severe pain.

"But Joseph told me that you accidentally fell down the stairs…" Lisa mumbled.

"He told you?" Kate laughed, "He is just covering for Anna."

"How can he do that?" Lisa regretted trusting him.

"You know how he treats me. You shouldn't be angry or act so surprised!" Kate told her calmly.

"Of course, I'm angry!" Lisa wanted to tell her she miscarried her baby, but considering that she was still weak, she decided not to.

"He covered the truth just to protect that bitch!" Lisa shouted.

After Kate fell asleep, Lisa found Joseph and snarled at him, "I gave you a chance to be with Kate, but you do not accept my good intentions at all!"

"I only asked you to stay with Kate because she does not want to see me. So…" Joseph tried to explain.

"Do you know why she does not want to see you?" Lisa erupted with rage, "You are covering to protect your slut, Anna!"

"I admit that I misunderstood what happened with Alan, but it had nothing to do with protecting Anna."

"What?" Joseph couldn't believe what Lisa was saying, "Anna went to my house and hurt Kate?"

"You don't need to play stupid! Kate is not here. I know how you mistreated her because of Anna before, and now that Anna is back, you are pushing Kate to divorce you. You just want to marry Anna!" Lisa took a deep breath then said coldly, "You did too many evil things to Kate. You will pay!"

Joseph was shocked; he honestly believed that Kate fell down the stairs, just as Amy told him.

In a well-decorated cafe, light music lofted in the air, but Anna was not soothed in the least.

Anna said to Dora nervously, "Mom, Kate miscarried her baby. It is a good thing for us, but if she remembers that I hit her before she passed out. If she blames me, I will not be able to explain that to Joseph."

When she was hitting Kate, Anna didn't care; she just wanted to inflict pain on her. Dora also thought that it was a difficult situation for her daughter to get out of, "Why were you so foolish? I will never object to you, causing trouble or hitting Kate, but you need to remember there could be consequences. You have killed Kate's baby, and Joseph is probably by her side."

"Mom, this is not the time to criticize me. Please think of some way to help me," Anna cried, "I cannot lose Joseph to Kate. I need to fix this!"

Dora thought for a while and suggested, "How about you admit your fault and apologize to Kate?"

"What?" Anna could not accept her mother's advice, "I will never apologize to Kate! Never!"

"But the situation is dire now. We have to show weakness. Otherwise, when Kate tells Joseph, you won't have any chance."

"I…" Anna pouted. She could not think of a better way, so she had to take her mother's advice.

"Remember, you must keep your vision in mind. After you achieve your goal, you can do whatever you want to get revenge on Kate," Dora didn't want her daughter to succumb to Kate, but she had no other option.

Anna lowered her head, "Okay, I can do it. After all, I have been through worse in the last two years. I can deal with this."

Her words assured Dora, "Don't worry, my dear. I will help you inherit all the wealth of the White family."

Dora begged Anna to fake her death in the car accident so that she could frame Kate and obtain all of the White family's money, and then Anna could marry Joseph.

"By the way, we also need to find a way to get Daisy out of the house! Otherwise, this is just not going to work. I hate sneaking out to a café just so we can talk privately," Dora said evilly.

"I agree. We need to get her out!" Anna said before her phone rang.
