?Chapter 310:


    At that moment, Katelyn waspletely at a loss for words about Rond.


    He struck her as the type of person who, even after being pped, woulde back to tenderly kiss the hand that had struck him.


    Katelyn let out another deep, resigned sigh.


    Meanwhile, Vincent gave her a subtle smirk and a knowing look.


    “What’s going on?” he asked.


    “He’s gone off the deep end on social media again. I can’t handle it anymore. Should I just get someone to hack his ount and delete everything? His posts are unbearable.” Though Katelyn spoke these words aloud, she was secretly nning to handle the situation herself.


    Katelyn had always stuck to her role in front of Vincent—a simple designer who knew nothing about hacking.<fnf27d> Newest update provided by find{n}ovel</fnf27d>


    “I’ll have someone take care of it,” Vincent said, his frustration evident. “But first, you need to calm down.”


    Katelyn nodded, knowing there was nothing more she could do for now. She reminded herself that ignorance could be afort. After all, Rond hadn’t broken anyws yet, so she couldn’t just go to the police.


    Just as she was about to power on herputer and dive back into work, Neil’s call came through.


    His voice was seething with anger and loaded with usations.


    “Katelyn, what’s the story with Lise’s injuries? How could you be so cruel? Are you really going to me her for something you did?”


    Neil’s voice was filled with anger, his teeth nearly grinding with frustration.

    When he saw the photos of Lise covered in bruises, he was initially in shock. But after seeing her in person and hearing her out, he understood the full story.


    The Bernard family’s revenge was meant for Katelyn, but Lise was the one who suffered.


    And the worst part? Lise was pregnant! What if something happened to the baby?


    Neil’s barrage of questions hit Katelyn so suddenly that she was momentarily stunned.


    “What are you talking about? I don’t understand,” Katelyn said.


    “Don’t y dumb with me! You angered the Bernard family, and now Lise is paying the price. She’s in the hospital because of you. Come over here and apologize right now, or don’t me me for what happens next!”


    Neil’s voice was filled with fury, but even through the phone, Lise’s anxious voice could be heard in the background.


    “Neil, maybe we should just drop this. I don’t think Katelyn meant any harm. I’ve already taken on so much—she shouldn’t have to deal with any more trouble,” Lise said.


    “You’re pregnant! What if something happens to the baby? I won’t stand for this!” Neil growled, his frustration clear.


    “If you don’te and apologize today, I’ll make sure you face serious consequences,” he added, addressing Katelyn again.


    As Katelyn listened, the situation started to make sense. She had mentioned Lise’s name casually when they asked, never expecting her to actually end up injured. But what about Rond’s strange behavior?


    With a deep frown, Katelyn finally spoke up.


    “I didn’t think they’d actually go through with it,” Katelyn said, her voice a mix of shock and regret.


    “You did this on purpose! I don’t want to hear any excuses. Get to the hospital right now!”


    With that, Neil ended the call abruptly.


    Looking at Lise, bruised and lying in bed, Neil felt deep worry for their unborn child. The results of the prenatal exam weren’t even in yet. This was his first child. He couldn’t let anything go wrong.


    Katelyn put her phone down, her face shadowed with concern. The Bernard family’s swift actions had dragged Lise into the mess. Regardless of how things turned out, Katelyn knew she needed to go to the hospital. After all, this whole situation had started because of her.


    Katelyn grabbed her bag and turned to Vincent.


    “Mr. Adams, Lise was hurt because I mentioned her name yesterday. I need to go to the hospital to check on her,” she said.


    Vincent, who overheard parts of the phone call, stood up and said casually, “I’ll apany you.”


    Katelyn nodded briefly, not saying anything more.


    With the press conference having gone smoothly and the project secured, Katelyn felt a sense of relief. The design team was also unwinding from the earlier stress, allowing her some time off.


    By the time Katelyn and Vincent arrived at the hospital, Lise was in the middle of a medical exam.


    Lise anxiously clutched her stomach, her face etched with worry as she repeatedly asked the doctor, “Doctor, how is my baby?”
