Chapter 14: Millie Kate (II)

Catherine did not want to argue with that miserable woman. Compared to her, Catherine was actually much better off.

Although she had been driven out by the Kate family, she had regained her freedom. At the same time, Millie had lost her freedom, but she did not realize it. In fact, she was even proud of it.

Although she did not have the inheritance of the Kate family, Catherine did not need it at all, and there was no need to fight for it. Millie was different, she was just a puppet, used by the two Kate Brothers to fight for their inheritance.

Although it seemed that she had lost her dignity, the only thing Catherine used to enter Wellings was her fake identity. Millie had to rely on connections and bribes.

Of course, Millie would not know about this, but this fact was clear to Catherine. Therefore, Catherine would not be angry at Millie’s rude remarks, because there was no need to be angry at her.

“Well, whatever you say is right. My dear Miss Millie.” Catherine feigned helplessness.

Seeing her attacks fall flat, Millie was frustrated. She moved closer to Catherine, lowered her voice, and said something that showed her true colors, “Humph, your desk belongs to someone else. Such a good job is wasted on someone like you.”

Catherine’s mind was occupied with other matters, but she suddenly stopped and asked with interest, “Really? I think so as well, my dear Miss Millie, so in your opinion, who should replace me?”

“Me, of course!” 

“Well if you’re so interested, why were you ridiculing the job just now?”

Millie was at a loss for words at this point.

“Also, two points. Before you evaluate a company, you should really be a part of that company first. Second, even if Wellings does give you a permanent position, you’ll be kicked out almost immediately. Miss Millie, do you dare to make this bet with me?”

“This… I. . .” Catherine was amused at Millie’s lack of words.

A person’s knowledge base and self-control were formed by their vision and structure. Whether it was the former or the latter, both were things that this little doll lacked. Even if she was really the biological daughter of a wealthy family, it was already too late for her to be in the upper class.

Even if Millie really did have the knowledge and upbringing of the upper class, the only thing she could do on her own when she entered the house was to live a cushy life.

The two brothers would only use her life as a bargaining chip to fight for the family inheritance – not treat her like a real person.

There was one thing that Millie did have in common with most of the ordinary nobles, however, because they all stood arrogantly to one side, always scolding their servants.

When she thought of this, Catherine could not help but laugh out loud.

In the face of Millie’s unreasonable behavior, Catherine withdrew the smile that was hanging on her face earlier. Then, she solemnly said to her, “I’m sorry, my dear Miss Millie, but you’re interrupting me. Please leave.”
