“Do you mean it?” Kathleen did not expect Diana to agree.
Staring at Kathleen's delicate and soft face, Diana replied, ”Yes, I do.”
Why is she so happy when she mentions getting divorced from Samuel? She used to like him so much. What happened to her feelings? That brat! What exactly has he done to make Kathleen so disappointed?
Holding Kathleen's hand, Diana said reluctantly, “You'll always be my Katie even after you're divorced from Samuel. Don't be a stranger.”
When Diana took Kathleen to the Macari residence, the latter was only twelve years old.
Diana's son and her daughter-in-law had been very busy all these years.
Samuel had already started taking over some company works at a young age.
As a result, they were so busy that none of them had time to accompany her.
Over the years, Diana only had Kathleen by her side. Therefore, she did not feel that lonely.
She watched Kathleen grow up from a little girl to a young woman.
From Diana's perspective, Kathleen was a kind, gentle, adorable, and good-tempered person. Furthermore, Kathleen had a courteous demeanor.
On the other hand, Samuel was the opposite with his foul temper. Diana thought only Kathleen could make him happy.
She felt that such a cheerful and lovely young woman like Kathleen would be a good match for her grandson. She wanted them to get married when the time came.
Even though the two were not involved in a romantic relationship, Diana was hoping that they would develop feelings toward each other down the road.
Alas, Diana never thought that she would get blindsided by her grandson.
I can't believe Samuel likes Nicolette, the daughter of that shameless vixen.
Diana was not an unreasonable person.
After all, the children born to a mistress had no way to change their past.
However, Nicolette's mother, Elena, was simply too lazy.
At that time, Elena relied on her beauty to hook up with many wealthy sons of the prestigious family in Jadeborough.
Diana was infuriated by her promiscuous life.
Luckily for Diana, her son resisted Elena's seduction. Therefore, she did not lose sleep over this matter.
However, some of Diana's old friends were not so lucky.
Elena had either seduced their sons or ruined their daughter's marriage.
It was only after she gave birth to Nicolette that everyone could breathe a sigh of relief.
Diana found out that Elena was determined to marry into the Yoeger family.
However, Frances Schott, Nicolette's grandmother, was a fierce woman. She threatened to end her life if Elena was allowed to join their family.
In the end, Frances got her wish granted.
Elena continued her debauched lifestyle for a few more years before passing away due to a serious illness. Jadeborough was finally at peace.
However, before Elena died, she sent Nicolette to the Yoeger family.
Veronica Burke, the wife of Zachary Yoeger, could not tolerate Nicolette. Nevertheless, she came from a prestigious family. Hence, she never treated her husband's illegitimate daughter harshly.
To everyone's surprise, Nicolette inherited Elena's scheming personality.
The former embarrassed Veronica during a banquet many years ago.
After suffering in silence, Veronica decided not to play nice anymore. Her attitude toward Nicolette changed overnight.
Since you've already given me a bad name, why do I care anymore?
Nicolette's father, Zachary, tried to interfere on a few occasions.
Nonetheless, Veronica paid him no heed and continued to do as she pleased.
She had lost faith in her husband for a long time.
Still, Veronica knew that they would not get divorced that easily. Her family had a strong collaboration with the Yoegers.
Hence, she could not terminate her marriage with Zachary.
Veronica did not intend to live a miserable life anymore. She vowed to enjoy herself if Zachary dared to go out and fool around again.
Most importantly, Frances decided to turn a blind eye to this.
From that day onward, Zachary did not dare to fool around with other women
anymore.
