Reborn of Kate by Isla Rainfield

Chapter 43 I Was Really Forced 

The conversation recording was played directly, and when Anna heard it, her face instantly turned pale. 

She never expected that Hendrick had prepared a recording device in advance. Could it be that Hendrick had long seen through her scheme? Otherwise, how could he have a recording device on hand to capture those contents? 

With a pale face, Anna wanted to retort, but she heard Hendrick say. “Do you still want to argue? I also have a video recording here. Would you like to watch it?” 

Hendrick’s face was cold and distant as he looked at Anna with eyes full of disappointment. 

The secretary who had been by his side for three years actually wanted to harm him at this critical moment. She not only aimed to take away ten percent of Lowe Group’s shares from him, but also planned to create a scandal and jeopardise Lowe Group’s qualification for the collaboration. 

Her intentions were indeed sinister. 

Anna had efficiently handled tasks and earned Hendrick’s admiration during the three years she had been with him. Lowe Group had entrusted her with many responsibilities, and she had accompanied Hendrick to various events as his plus one. However, he never expected that the person beside him was a traitor! 

Anna opened her mouth, then suddenly knelt down on the ground, tears falling. “Mr. Lowe, I–I didn’t do it willingly. I was forced!” 

Anna cried pitifully, saying, “Lana, from Sadler Group, threatened my family. She said if I didn’t comply, she would cut off my parents‘ income! 

“They are just ordinary people from the suburbs. Lana even used their lives to threaten me… 

While crying, Anna reached for Hendrick’s trouser leg and lifted her tear–stained face while continuing, “Mr. Lowe, I’ve been with you for three years! I may not have done much, but I have endured a lot. Can you forgive me this time? I really had no choice…” 

Watching Anna switch between the composed secretary and the pitiful, crying woman, Kate looked at her with surprise. 

This Anna really knows how to act. Now she’s saying she had no choice! Why didn’t she say she had no choice earlier? 

It was because she thought we had no evidence at all, and everything depended on her word! When Hendrick played the recording and mentioned there was surveillance footage, Anna panicked completely. 

With her leverage in Hendrick’s hands, if he decides to pursue it, she will likely end up in jail.

you didn’t appreciate it.” 

His voice was cold, devoid of the previous tenderness. 

“Mr. Lowe, I really was forced to do it! You know that I… I admire you! So, how could I bear to hurt you?” 

Anna’s eyes were filled with despair as she looked at Hendrick, her voice conveying indescribable sorrow and despair. 

“Heh.” 

Kate sneered, uninterested in Anna’s theatrics. He gestured to the bodyguards brought by Lucas, saying. “Take her away and send her to the police station. Handle her accordingly!” 

When Anna heard Kate’s words, her eyes reflected more desperation. She grabbed Hendrick’s hand and pleaded with tears in her eyes. “Mr. Lowe! Please spare me this time, okay? I know I was wrong. I was truly forced. I didn’t harm you intentionally!” 

Two bodyguards approached to remove Anna, whose voice grew even more desperate. “Mr. Lowel 

Hendrick gently pried open Anna’s hand, a faint smile playing on his lips. “It’s too late now.” 

Anna felt her strength drain away in an instant. As she was being dragged away, she cast a resentful glance at Kate. 

This is all Kate’s fault! That b*tch spoiled my plan! She must have whispered something to Hendrick; otherwise, why would he treat me like this? 

It must have been her influence; it’s all because of her!
