Chapter 62

Emily's POV
　　"I'm sorry, you don't have to be angry, I'll leave right now."
　　Everyone at this party was not someone this man could piss off, they were able to turn a man into a bum on the street with a single word.
　　Even though he was much taller than me and didn't necessarily know that my fiancé was Andre, he abandoned Kelly and fled quickly under my threat.
　　The last time I saw her was at Andre's villa, and Kelly had exquisite makeup and limited-edition luxury clothes and shoes. I only felt inferior and ashamed when I stood in front of her.
　　Now her hair was disheveled, her face was swollen from the slap, and the quality of her clothes looked very poor, at least not compared to the ones she was wearing.
　　I remembered clearly that Andre had promised me that I would not give Kelly a hard time, but looking at what had just happened to her I realized that I was still too naive and that Andre would never forgive Kelly for what she had done because she had almost destroyed the relationship between the two of us.
　　"Do you want to go change your clothes?"
　　I looked at Kelly's face, which was very similar to Kate's and couldn't help but ask with concern. I had no sympathy for her, I just didn't want Kate's mother to be in a bad way because of me.
　　Kelly glared at me, and she seemed to resent me so much that her eyes looked fierce as if they could tear me apart right away! I took a cautious step backward, worried that Kelly might not be able to control her emotions and pounce on me, but to my surprise, she just looked at me and left the bathroom.
　　I think she should also understand that there is nothing she can do to me, Kelly no longer has that ability. If what the man just said is true, then Kelly's career should have been destroyed, at least she can no longer live on her current career in A country.
　　I went back to Andre, who had finished talking with his partner and was sitting on a couch in the corner, drinking. Most of the women in the room had partners, no less than Andre, and very few capitalists' secretaries or lovers dared to deliberately chat with him to get his attention on a day like today.
　　It was rare that Andre was so quiet around him, and he was already bored to sleep when I approached him. I sat next to him and tried to wake him up, but to my surprise, Andre took me into his arms and kissed me on the lips.
　　Although this is the corner of the party, is dancing in the middle of the hall, the drinking crowd will rarely come this way. But I was still worried that someone would find out, although such behavior is not a big deal in the eyes of these people. Even if Andre kissed me in the middle of the hall, they would not look at us with disdain, but I would still feel shy in front of so many people.
　　But I couldn't push Andre away, and thinking about all the things he did for me in secret made me want to indulge in his behavior. But maybe Andre didn't think that such an act as kissing was appropriate for such an occasion, so he quickly let go of me.
　　"Kate called to tell us to hurry back, she wanted to hear your bedtime story. But they said you went to the bathroom, so I waited for you here. Why did you go so long, are you not feeling well, Emily?"
　　He looked very happy, and I don't think Andre wanted to hear Kelly's name at this time. In order not to spoil his good mood, I didn't tell Andre about meeting Kelly just now, let alone question him why he broke his promise to me to punish Kelly, I know Andre did all these things because he loves me.
　　"No, Andre, I'm not uncomfortable, I just went to put on some lipstick and had a conversation with Mrs. Andrew. Let's go home now, Kate's going to be anxious."
　　Another reason I didn't tell Andre that I had seen Kelly was that I didn't think Kelly was capable of hurting me anymore, but the day after the party Andre and I got a call at work from the person who used it.
　　"Mr. Vincent, Kate is missing! I came to pick Kate up from kindergarten, but her teacher told me Kate disappeared this morning at the end of class!"
　　When Andre and I got the call, we rushed to the school and were greeted by Anna, the maid in charge of Kate's care, standing in front of the kindergarten. Standing beside her were the head of the kindergarten and Kate's teacher.
　　"I hope you can tell me what's going on? Why is my daughter missing and you didn't call me until now?
　　Andre was very angry and I looked at the kindergarten manager with equal anger, Kate had been missing all morning and they didn't tell us that she was missing until Ann came to pick her up from school, which was a real abomination!
　　"I'm sorry, Mr. Vincent. Kate's homeroom teacher noticed she hadn't returned to class during her last period and searched the campus for her thinking she was just being playful. But all of our teachers were involved in the search, and we searched the entire kindergarten and even around the kindergarten, but never found Kate. we even looked into the surveillance, but the person who took Kate seemed to be very familiar with the kindergarten environment, and she hid in places that the surveillance couldn't see, and we didn't know what she looked like."
　　The kindergarten administrator had a nervous expression as she explained to Andre and I what had happened, she was very scared, this was a very serious accident for the kindergarten!
　　Someone had taken the child from the kindergarten, but the kindergarten teachers didn't find any clues, and they didn't even notice that something was wrong until after the child disappeared!
　　But Andre and I don't have any time to sue the kindergarten and make them pay for Kate's disappearance or even close down!
　　Andre contacted all the private investigators he knew and paid them well to help find Kate, and I contacted Susan and others I knew well to help find her.
　　Andre and I didn't tell Jane and Wilson about the incident because we were worried they would be upset and anxious about it.
　　"Kelly? Where's Kate? Where is Kate and why are you doing this?"
　　I looked at the person standing in front of me in disbelief and angrily questioned her purpose for doing this! Three hours ago I received a text message from a very strange number not owned by anyone I knew. But the person who sent me the text told me Kate was at her place and even sent me a picture of Kate!
　　I tried to call Andre the first time I saw Kate, but the person, as if she knew all my moves, sent another text warning me not to tell anyone, including Andre, and told me to go alone to the address she gave me or Andre and I would never see Kate!
　　I was anxious to get Kate out of there fast but also worried that my life was already being watched by the person who sent the text. I was afraid to call Andre again, fearing that the person would hurt Kate if they knew what I was doing.
　　The address the texter gave me was a suburban villa, and I came here alone, hiding it from Andre. I didn't expect to be knocked unconscious just as I got to the front door of the villa!
　　When I woke up again I found myself tied to a chair and Kelly was standing across from me. I understood everything in an instant, but I couldn't understand why Kelly would do this?
　　Kate was her daughter, how could Kelly go and hurt her?
　　"Snap!"
　　"You have no right to accuse me, Emily! It's all your fault, why did you, a bastard daughter, stay with Andre, you have no right to be his fiancee! The position of Mrs. Vincent should be mine, and now it's all taken away by you! It's all your fault, I secretly brought Kate out of kindergarten just to trick you to come here, I want to punish you!"
　　Kelly took a wooden stick in her hand and hit me hard on my ankle. The sharp pain made me frown and tears flowed out of my eyes for a moment!
　　I looked up at Kelly through the pain, her eyes were so mad I could tell she resented me because of Andre. but the truth is, even if I hadn't been there for Andre, Kelly wouldn't have been Andre's fiancée!
　　No man can forgive his wife for betrayal and deception, and Andre was kind enough to raise Kate, but that doesn't mean he'll marry Kelly again!
　　Andre's fiancée, if not me, would be a lady from an elite aristocratic family, such as Rosen or another woman, but never Kelly!
　　But Kelly never understood this, she always blamed me for stealing Andre, but never reflected on the mistakes she made, and even selfishly used Kate!
　　"Kelly, you don't deserve to be Kate's mother at all! I'm warning you, you better not hurt Kate, or Andre will never let you go!"
　　Kelly's current mental state could hurt me at any moment, and the most important thing I should do right now is to stabilize her, but I simply can't control the anger inside me!
　　I couldn't help but scold Kelly out loud as my mind kept recalling what Andre had told me about Kate's life! I was worried that Kate was somewhere listening to my conversation with Kelly, and in the end, I didn't say those words out loud.
　　"Kelly! What are you going to do? Are you crazy?!"
　　My eyes widened in fear as Kelly pulled a fruit knife out of nowhere and walked towards me. I struggled desperately but to no avail, the rope tied me firmly to the chair and if Kelly hurt me with the fruit knife, I couldn't even dodge it!
　　"I'm not crazy, I'm going to cut your face and make you ugly! That way Andre will never like you again, and without that pretty face you'll never have a chance to steal Andre from me!"
