Chapter 399 Turn Back from the Wrong Path
Catherine’s imposing momentum stunned Korbin. He didn’t know what Catherine meant. While he was in a daze, Catherine
continued speaking.
“Since you don’t admit our relationship, of course I don’t need to admit you’re my father. In this case, please get out of the
Swanns’!”
Korbin not only acted tyrannically in her house but also wanted to kill her. What on earth had she done to make these people
think she could be easily bullied?
“Brat, you finally said it, huh?” Korbin gnashed his teeth and grimaced in anger.
“I don’t know what trick you played to make your grandpa leave all the family assets to you. Now that you’ve got them, you’re
going to retaliate against me, right?
“I’m the eldest son of the Swanns and you’re my daughter. Catherine, aren’t you afraid that others may curse you behind your
back?”
Apart from cursing Catherine, Korbin also complained about her to Branden.
“Branden, you’re the son of a big family anyway. How can the Duncans allow you to marry such a woman? After all, you’ve seen
the fierce and wicked side of hers?”
“Hmph!” Branden couldn’t help laughing. He stared at Korbin with obvious mockery in his eyes. “Mr. Swann, you’re old now.
You’d better not lose your temper easily. It’s bad for your health!
“I know Kathy well. She is gentle, pure, innocent, and occasionally stubborn. You’re her father. Don’t you know her better than
me?”
Korbin choked in anger and thought, ” How can Catherine be gentle and pure?”
He was rendered speechless by Branden’s words!
Korbin didn’t know whether Branden was actually blind or Catherine was so enchanting that even Branden was captivated by
her. Korbin gave a gasp of fury, thinking, ” Catherine is big trouble indeed!”

Catherine paid no attention to what Korbin said to her because she never cared about what outsiders thought of her.
However, Branden never allowed anyone to vilify Catherine. He threw to Korbin the materials that had been brought here by
Paxton.
“Since you have so many problems with Catherine, why don’t you take a look at these?”
Korbin settled his gaze on Branden and saw the latter look at him disdainfully with arched eyebrows. Á hint of suspicion flashed
through his mind.
“What’s this?”
“You’ll know after taking a look at it!”
Korbin unfolded the document and took a look at it. His heart sank instantly. After his assistant got into trouble, he knew that
what he had done couldn’t be concealed anymore. He didn’t expect that Branden would find so many things about him.
It seemed that the Duncans were really powerful. Korbin thought, “It turns out that Catherine has piggybacked on the Duncans.
No wonder she’s so tough now!”
He realized that his scheme had been exposed. So, he couldn’t bother to continue acting and decided to go all out.
Korbin tossed the document onto the table randomly and arrogantly gazed at Catherine and Branden.
“Catherine, yes, it’s me who sent those people to get rid of you. So what? You brought Branden here today. Are you gonna
question me with the power of the Duncans?”
“With the power of the Duncans?”
Catherine raised her head and sized up Korbin with a cold sneer. “Do I need that to deal with you?”
Her scornful and arrogant attitude could irritate anyone easily. Korbin was always a proud man. Despised by a girl now, how
could he bear with it?
“Catherine, don’t get too arrogant! Do you think you’re invincible because you have the assets of the Swanns and are backed by
the Duncans?
“You want this house. Fine, I’ll give it to you, but you should know you’ll beg me one day!”

Korbin showed a triumphant smile on his face. Now he didn’t mind falling out with Catherine. He had been fully prepared.
He would make Catherine regret it and let her know the consequence of offending him. Catherine slowly got up and turned her
neck. Then, she took a casual look at Branden.
Branden immediately took her hint and said to her gently, “You may go on. I’ll go out and get some fresh air. Let me know if
anything.”
“Okay,” Catherine replied.
Branden stood up and walked out of the Swanns’.
Korbin didn’t understand why Catherine would suddenly let Branden leave them alone, but he could faintly feel that something
seemed to be wrong with Catherine. After Branden got out, Catherine’s eyes rested upon Korbin.
“Mr. Swann, am I tough now, or are you well prepared?”
Since Korbin didn’t admit Catherine was his daughter, why would she treat him as her father?
The smile on Korbin’s face froze at once. He looked Catherine up and down, seemingly trying to see through her trick.
“What do you mean? What on earth do you know?”
“Hmph. What do I know?” Catherine fiddled with her fingers randomly in a leisurely look. “Then you should confess what on earth
you have done first. Apart from the business with the Winfreds in Oceanvile, what have you done to the Swann Corporation?
“Why don’t we discuss it a bit?”
Catherine slightly narrowed her eyes with a faint smile in her eyes and just stared at Korbin. Her seemingly innocent eyes
contained a strong sense of oppression, making Korbin uncomfortable all over.
Korbin felt insecure as if he was being stripped naked at that moment. He kept sizing up Catherine and observed her facial
expression, trying to find out what she meant. He thought, “What on earth does Catherine know?
“My cooperation with the Winfreds is confidential. How did she know that?
“Is it because of the Duncans again?

“The Duncans are terrifying and resentful. If Catherine handed over the Swann Corporation obediently, our relationship wouldn’t
have become like this.
“Now that the Swanns and the Duncans are related by marriage, the situation shouldn’t be so serious.
“It’s all this girl’s fault. She is the bane against her parents indeed.
“My career has been ruined by her.”
Korbin said to Catherine, “Catherine, let me tell you. No matter what you know, you can’t change it anyway. You’d better
apologize to me. Given that you’re my daughter, as long as you act obediently, I still can offer you a well -off life and help you
marry into the Duncans!”
Korbin gave Catherine the last warning. “Otherwise, without the powerful help of the Swanns, do you think you can marry into the
Duncans on your own or with Branden’s affection for you?”
He was born into a big family. He understood what those big families thought.
Once the Swanns behind Catherine got destroyed and he refused to admit that Catherine was his daughter, Catherine would
finish.
She would become the bane, cast aside by all!
“You’d better turn back from the wrong path. Otherwise, I’ll immediately make a statement in the newspaper to disown you!”
