Memories Of The Night 113 Chapter 113: Family Dinner

Katrina sees a hint of worry in Eva's eyes.

She quickly changes the subject and sniffs loudly. With a bright smile, she says, "Eva, it smells good. What did you cook?"

At Katrina's praise, Eva puts a big smile on her face. "Mr. Anderson gave us special instructions to cook some of your favorite dishes, Miss Miller. Come in!"

Katrina follows Eva into the house. There is a bountiful dinner set up on the table.

As Katrina enters, Carl stubs the cigar he's smoking and stands up. "Katrina, come. Let's have dinner."

Sophie is surprised.

Did her father make her come home quickly to have dinner with this woman?

While Katrina sits at the table at Carl's invitation, Sophie seems a bit reluctant.

Today, the Anderson family is complete. Carl, Winnie, Sophie, and even Samuel, who always likes to fool around outside, are all gathered at home.

It is evident that Carl takes Katrina's return seriously.

To welcome her back, he specially calls the entire Anderson family home.

"Katrina, you must have suffered a lot on your two-month a.s.signment. Come, let me have the first drink to welcome you back safely."

Carl raises his gla.s.s and looks at Katrina with a gracious smile on his slightly wrinkled face.

"Uncle Anderson, you're an elder, and I haven't been in contact with you for a long time. The first drink should be mine." Katrina is so overwhelmed that she raises the gla.s.s with both hands.

Sophie is furious to see Carl treat Katrina like a second daughter.

Sitting nearby, Sophie rolls her eyes and mutters bitterly, "Suffer what? Her life is so good."

As soon as she gets back, she hooks up with Marcellus and asks him to buy her a new phone and drive her to the Anderson house.

Although Katrina seems innocent, she's actually a dissolute woman who must have secret affairs with the policemen she works with.

When Katrina was interning at the hospital, she always stayed out late. And every time she came back, she was dressed in designer clothes. No one knew where she spent those nights.

"Sophie, don't gossip! Katrina is working hard! It's more than I can say for you, who only hangs out with friends to have some tea and get beauty treatments all day."

Since Sophie graduated from college, she has been a full-time daughter. Her daily tasks include eating, drinking, enjoying luxuries, and sometimes, even getting a manicure done while flying abroad.

Carl doesn't expect much of the girl. He's rich enough to support her lifestyle.

But Samuel is a different story. When his son didn't graduate, Carl made him work for the company.

Until the present day, Carl delegates a lot of his work to Samuel. Since the Anderson family business will be taken over by Samuel in the future, Carl has to train him in advance.

Sophie isn't happy to hear Carl's words. "Dad, do you think I b.u.m around at home every day? How much money can I make if I get a job? A month's salary won't be enough to buy a dress. Dad, I told you to invest in me. I want to open a flower shop, but you always refuse."

"Sophie, I'm not reluctant to invest money to open a shop for you. But starting a business is not as simple as you think. I'm just afraid that after spending a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources, you won't succeed, and you will be demotivated in the end."

"Dad, I'm your daughter. With such an excellent father like you, how can I be bad at business? How will you know if you don't let me try?"

Winnie also agrees, "Yes, Carl. Our daughter wants to open a flower shop. If we don't let her try, how do we know that she won't succeed?"

Although Carl is practical, he is still a man who dotes on his daughter. And after Sophie praises him so much, he decides to compromise. "Okay, I hear you. Sophie, on your birthday, I will give you a million to start your own business and open whatever store you want."

Sophie's gloom diminishes a little, and she feels a bit happy at that moment. "Thanks, dad!"

"Katrina, eat more. You look thinner than you did two months ago."

Winnie gives Katrina a mild smile and helps her to eat more food.

"Thanks, Aunt Green," Katrina says politely, despite being uncomfortable with Winnie's two-faced actions. She always treats Katrina poorly behind Carl's back.

When Carl sees his wife and Katrina getting along, a smile involuntarily appears on his face.

Sophie has been indulged since she was a child, so she acts like a spoiled brat with regards to Katrina. But as long as his wife is kind to Katrina, he can rest rea.s.sured.

While Katrina eats, she suddenly feels a foot rubbing up and down her lap. She freezes and stops eating.

Samuel is sitting opposite her. Is he the one rubbing her lap?

Katrina looks up. Sure enough, Samuel is staring at her with a lewd and disgusting grin on his lips.

Since he tried to take advantage of her four years ago, she has been particularly wary of Samuel.

When she transferred to the police academy, she moved to the student apartment. After graduating, she rented her own place. The reason she moved out was that she wanted to get away from Samuel.

She doesn't expect the playboy to continue hara.s.sing her.

He obviously has a girlfriend, and he switches lovers one after the other. But he still keeps trying to take advantage of her whenever he gets a chance.

At that moment, Katrina couldn't contain her disgust.

Because Carl is present, Samuel thinks that she won't fight back and has no scruples about hara.s.sing her.

Furiously biting her bottom lip, Katrina picks up a fork from the table, lowers her head, and forcibly stabs Samuel's foot.

At the sudden pain, Samuel lets out a howl and takes his foot away.

He doesn't expect Katrina to be so cruel and stab him with a fork. He even feels his foot bleeding.

Samuel's sudden shout surprises everyone.

Carl has always been tough on Samuel. He scolds him with an authoritative look. "What the h.e.l.l are you doing?" he demands. "Eat your dinner."

Samuel quickly bends down. "Dad, I suddenly have a bad stomach ache. I think something upset my stomach. I'm fine, and you keep eating. I'll go to the washroom."

When Samuel leaves, Katrina calmly drops her fork to the ground. She bends over, picks it up, and hands it over to Eva.

"Eva, the fork fell to the floor. Please take it away, and I don't need it for the time being."
