Chapter 762

Katherine said firmly, “Mom, you don’t need to worry about this. I have my plans

“Your plans?” Vivian was immediately enraged, raising her voice, “Katherine, do you even realize what you’re saying Pregnant out of wedlock! How will the Santos family ever show our faces again if this gets out? You’ve been abroad for a while. Even if you don’t say anything, people can guess what happened. Our family’s reputation is slowly recovering, and now you’re pregnant!

“Katherine, have you considered how much the Santos family has sacrificed for you? And now, you’re jeopardizing everything with this child: If you don’t tell us who the father is, then let’s schedule an appointment for an abortion right now!”

Vivian grabbed her hand tightly, and Katherine was stunned firmly resisting. “Twon’t”

“What did you say!” Vivian exclaimed.

“I said I won’t let you control my life anymore. I’m going to have this baby!” Katherine said firmly.

Vivian was stunned. “Have the baby? You’re a Santos, and being pregnant out of wedlock will bring a huge scandal! With an unknown father, this. child is just a burden! Do you realize how hard it is to raise a child?”

“I know that But I won’t regret i Katherine said firmly,

Vivian, enraged, said. “Fine, have the baby! If you insist on having this child, then consider yourself no longer my daughter!”

Katherine book a deep breath and said with a bitter smile, “Mom, back when I didn’t want to be with Dale, you threatened me the same way. insisting I think about the family’s reputation. I had no choice but to be with him. You’ve already used the Santos family to control my life once. I’ve already been through so much. Now, I want to live for myself. I will have this baby, no matter how hard it gets, I will see it through.”

After finishing her words, Katherine pushed Vivian out the door Vivian, enraged, shouted from outside, “Katherine, you must be out of your mind! Let me tell you, you won’t have this baby as long as I’m heret Do you think you can make a mockery of the Santos family’s reputation? I won’t allow

Katherine was resolute, ignoring Vivian’s protests. She was determined to have the baby, regardless of the consequences. This time, she chose to break free from the expectations of being a Santos daughter and forge her path. She believed she could hnd fulfillment and happiness with her child even without a partner.

Katherine packed her belongings inside while Vivian pounded on the door, shouting, “Katherine, come out here! I’m telling you…

The door swung open with a creak, and Vivian’s voice suddenly stopped. Seeing Katherine with her suitcase, Vivian was taken aback. “What are you doing? You’re leaving? You’re leaving for a child with an unknown father?”

“Mom, I’ve made my decision. If you can’t accept this, then I have to leave,” Katherine said as she started to walk out. Vivian, seeing this, panicked and hurried to grab her. “No, Katherine, you can’t leave. It’s all my fault I’m just worried about you? Please don’t go, Stay, and I’ll help you. It’s just having a baby–we can support you!” All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Katherine shook her head and said, “Mom, Ive made up my mind, whether you accept it or not, I’m leaving

Vivian sighed deeply and said, “I respect whatever you choose to do, but you should understand that raising a child is not easy.

“Mom, don’t worry. I can take care of myself,” Katherine said, then walked our with her suitcase Vivian stood behind, denching her fists tightly, her expression dark and brooding.

As soon as Katherine left, Vivian said solemnly. “Cancel her card. No one in the family is allowed to support he

Blake nodded and said, “Bur… what if something happens to Miss Santos out there

“Humph! She can’t handle hardship. When she inevitably struggles outside, she’ll come back on her own. That child must be removed!” Vivian interrupted sharply. Vivian’s eyes were filled with hostility. The Santos family couldn’t afford any more scandal—they had no room for further losses.

Katherine headed straight to the Cat Cafe with her suitcase. With nowhere else to go and no option to seek out Valerie, the Cat Cafe was her only refuge. She had neglected managing the cafe due to her busy schedule, leaving it in the hands of the staff, but it hadn’t been profitable at all.

When she arrived, the staff saw her and immediately brightened up. ‘Miss Santos, you’re here!”

“Just continue with your work; I’m here to check things on,” Katherine said. Seeing her suitcase, the stall remained silent and continued to their

Katherine settled her suitcase and sat down with a cat in her lap, staring blankly. She knew Vivian wouldn’t easily relent, and now that she had left. she wouldn’t go back to avoid further constraints. However, Katherine was also aware of Vivian’s temper. Katherine checked her phone and wa message from Blake, informing her that all her cards had been canceled.

Katherine wasn’t surprised; it was Vivian’s goal–to force her back and make her relent. In the past, she had sacrificed her feelings for the Santos family’s reputation by being with Dale, and it had left her burt. Having endured enough, Katherine was determined not to be a compliant puppet any longer.

“Miss Santos, we’re all family. Once your mother cools down, you should come back. The canceled cards are just temporary. If you soften a bit, things will settle in a couple of days.”

Blake’s words made Katherine smile lightly. She understood her mother’s temper well, but this time was different–she was determined to keep the baby. Throughout her life, she had been the obedient Santos daughter, indifferent to her lack of affection and always living for the family’s reputation. But after narrowly escaping a crisis, Katherine realized she wanted to truly live for herself and pursue what she truly desired.
