?Chapter 631:


    Kason said goodbye to Elena and then escorted Cathy back to the Garrett family estate.


    Upon their return, Kirby sternly expressed his disappointment, “You’ve ignored everything I’ve advised.”


    Recognizing the destructive path Cathy was on, Kirby agreed with Kason’s assessment that it was time for more drastic measures.


    Kirby firmly instructed Cathy, “Gather your belongings. You’re going overseas for training. Arrangements have already been made with our international branch.”


    Cathy had expected a simple punishment, maybe a few days grounded. The reality of being sent abroad hit her all at once, and she began to panic, pleading, “Please, I know I was wrong. Don’t make me go overseas. I just can’t handle the food there.”


    Kirby remained unmoved by her pleas and left the arrangements to Kason.


    Despite her reluctance, Cathy was dragged onto the ne by Kason.


    Meanwhile, the promotional campaign for “A Dream Within a Dream” was in full swing. Louis and Francesca were tied up with various public appearances. However, Elena wasn’t going to let matters rest so easily. It was clear Cathy couldn’t have masterminded such a scheme on her own—someone else must have incited her.


    It didn’t take long for Elena to identify the instigator.


    With Cathy out of the country, Yvette had lost her strongest supporter. All it took was a little intimidation from Elena, and Yvette spilled everything. Cathy’s relentless pursuit of Elena had been fueled by none other than Elyse. Not only had Elyse fed Cathy provocative videos, but she had also been busy spreading scandalous gossip about herself and Wesley.


    Had Yvette not mentioned Elyse’s name, Elena might have forgotten about her entirely.


    Since Elyse had been expelled from Hillside Manor, Elena had assumed she would stay out of trouble. Much to her surprise, Elyse was still plotting behind the scenes.


    Yvette cautiously observed Elena’s expression.


    Now that Cathy had been sent overseas, Yvette stared at Elena like a deer caught in headlights. “M-Miss Harper, I’ve already told you everything I know. Can I go now?”


    Elena nodded, and Yvette quickly fled as though something was chasing her.

    Upon hearing that Cathy had been sent overseas, Elyse cursed, “What aplete waste.”


    Despite being a member of the powerful Garrett family, Cathy couldn’t even handle someone like Elena.


    Elyse knew right then she had to take matters into her own hands. She nestled closer to Keith, pressing against his shoulder. “Keith, I’m terribly worried about my grandmother’s health. But Alexander and his family don’t like me—they won’t even let me set foot inside Hillside Manor anymore. All I want is to see my grandmother… Can you help me?”


    Keith immediately replied, “That’s easy. I’ll have the driver take you. With an official government vehicle, let’s see who’s bold enough to stop you.” Elyse’s eyes flickered with hope.


    With satisfaction, Elyse masked her true feelings with feigned delight. “Really? That’s amazing. I love you, Keith.” She gave him a swift kiss on the cheek, then lowered hershes and nestled deeper into his chest, feigning bashfulness.


    Keith’s chest swelled with pride as he basked in Elyse’s sweet praise and admiration. “If anyone from the Harper family dares step out of line, I’ll send someone to deal with them,” he boasted, chest puffed with arrogance.


    With his father, Graham, recently appointed as deputy mayor, Keith’s arrogance had grown tenfold. He hadn’t forgotten the humiliation he suffered at Jeffry’s hands.
