Chapter 146: I Hate Her
Facing Kylie as she stood in the doorway, Laurence suddenly realized that Kylie was no longer the girl she had once been. She had changed totally. She was calm now, cunning, clever, and strong. She had once been a pushover, and he had had complete control over her. Now though, he had absolutely no control over her daughter. Kylie learned to fight him and stand against them all.

Facing her now, he felt both fear and trepidation. He had tried to win her over to his side, but she had easily seen through his words and discerned his true intentions. “Fine,” he told her, “If you must go, then go. I can’t force you to stay,”

Once Kylie was gone, the rest of the attendees left, one after the other until the only people left were Khloe, Laurence, and his assistant. “What now?” Khloe cried. “You said this was for my benefit, but now that Kylie is dropping out, how is it to my benefit?” She was frustrated with the result of their plans.

“Enough! Your ranting and tears couldn’t help us,” Laurence yelled as he smashed his fist against the coffee table. “Khloe, you’ve always been so unreasonable, and it wears on me. If Kylie doesn’t take this job, then we will think of something else. Nothing has changed. Quit your whining and use your brain for once in your life!” Laurence can’t hold his anger at this time because he was worn out.

Khloe was struck dumb. This was the first time that her father had spoken to her like this. Finally, she brought her hands to her stomach and said, “Dad, it was Kylie’s fault that I lost Aiden’s child. It should not be any surprise that I am as upset as I am. I hate her, but now you are acting like you don’t even love me or want to help me.” She acted like a victim to get her father’s sympathy.

Hearing these words from his daughter, he frowned sadly and said, “Everything that I have done has been intentionally for your good. Do you not realize what you are doing? You are breaking your old man’s heart… I can’t bear to even look at you…”

Laurence staggered to his feet and left Khloe alone with his assistant in the conference room.
