Chapter 442: Kathleen Went Out to Sea in Search of Bach
Before leaving, John left behind a group of very powerful bodyguards to protect her.
Before John left, he told Kathleen, “I’ll hurry over to accompany you as soon as possible! Once I’m done with my business in Hillford, I’ll come over immediately!”
However, there were many things that tied John to Hillford.
The night when John left, Shane brought good news. “Miss, according to your previous instructions, I have already made contact with young master’s trusted aide, Alan!”
Kathleen asked, “How was it?”
“Initially, Alan wasn’t willing to betray his young master. Other than his loyalty, it was also because he was poisoned and his family was controlled by him.”
“I followed your instructions and promised to cure Alan of the poison and save his life! I also promised to save his family…”
Shane said, “Alan immediately agreed.”
“After all, compared to the young master’s incompetence and cunningness, and his viciousness, he’s really not a wise ruler! Alan is more willing to follow you!”
“Alan has been by young master’s side all these years. In fact, he knows better than anyone that young miss is the hope of the entire Yates family! You are the king who should truly rule Sydnay!”
With the defection of Alan, Tidas’s trusted aide, everything became much simpler.
Alan knew too many of Tidas’s secrets.
He immediately told Kathleen that it was indeed Tidas who had plotted to kill the business elites who had helped the Yates family company tide over the crisis. Moreover, he had also killed the people from the Taylor family at the same time.
His goal was to intensify the conflict and get John to seek revenge on the Taylor family and then destroy the Taylor family!
Who knew that John had not really destroyed the Taylor family. He had actually left after teaching Bach a lesson. This made Tidas very disappointed.
At that time, Tidas had already thought of a plan. He had simply pretended to be John and continued to destroy the Taylor family. Countless people from the Taylor family had died! It was a massacre.
Kathleen asked, “Where’s Bach? Is he really missing, and his whereabouts are unknown?”
Alan shook his head.
He did not know either.
He could only tell Kathleen what he saw. “At that time, the young master led his men to chase after Frederick and Bach. He heavily injured them and watched them jump into the sea.”
“When the young master gave the order to shoot, he must have hit them! The sea water turned blood red, and our men did not find Frederick and Bach’s bodies.”
Although she had already guessed it, hearing everything that Alan had said, Kathleen still could not believe it.
Of course, she was even sadder!
The next day, Kathleen brought Shane to the seaside.
She looked at the blue sea, and the turbulent waves pounded on the surface of the sea.
Kathleen remembered how Bach had saved her from the fire in Hillford, brought her across the sea to Sydnay, protected her, and took care of her and her children.
“Shane, I have truly disappointed Bach.”
She told Shane and herself, “Bach treated me with sincerity. I owe him, and it’s more than just saving my life.”
“If he wants to rule Sydnay, wouldn’t it be fine to just give it to him?”
“Even if he wants to open the Yates family’s royal tomb, just let him open it. What’s the big deal?”
He opened his mouth to say something, but he did not know what to say.
So he shut up again and quietly stood behind Kathleen and listened.
Kathleen was still mumbling, “Shane, tell me, why should I help my father just because he is my blood-related father?”
“However, blood-related relationships can also be so cold and thin!”
As Kathleen said this, she smiled.
Just like that, the corners of her lips curled up, and her smile was extremely bitter.
“It was because of my father’s request. He said that the Yates Group was in danger, so I asked John to bring people over to help the Yates Group, but things turned out so badly!”
“I clearly knew that my father was not a good ruler! I clearly knew that Bach was more suitable than my father. Bach should have been in charge of everything in Sydnay!”
These few days, Kathleen learned more facts that she had never known before and thought of many, many things! She suddenly realized that she was really wrong.
At this moment, she was still looking in the direction of the sea.
She was still talking to Shane, mumbling to herself, “If John’s people had not come to help back then, what do you think would have been the result?”
“Bach might have swallowed up the Yates Group. The Taylor family would have disbanded the
Yates Group and become the new ruler of Sydnay. He would have even opened the Yates
Group’s royal tomb, right?”
“However, Bach has a bottom line!”
Even at this moment, Kathleen was still certain. “Bach would never do anything to hurt me! He wouldn’t kill my father because of me.”
Based on her understanding of Bach, Kathleen guessed, “At most, because of the death of Brandon, he would find trouble with John. He might even go against John…”
However, this was not the result that Kathleen wanted.
Kathleen did not want a war, and she did not want to see John die.
However, these things were not something that she could not avoid just because she did not want to. It was unavoidable! Unless she stood out herself and became the king of Sydnay.
It was just that she loved to slack off too much in the past!
In the past, Kathleen did not want to care about such messy matters in Sydnay. What she wanted was very simple. As long as her family was safe and happy, it would be fine as long as there were no illnesses or disasters.
However, in order to balance things out, she could not slack off anymore!
She stood by the seaside for a long time.
The sea breeze blew for a long time, bringing with it the salty taste of the sea.
Kathleen turned around and walked towards a cruise ship that was docked by the seaside.
It was a white three-story luxury cruise ship, the Titania. It was a gift given to her by Bach five years ago.
Kathleen boarded the cruise ship. She ordered Shane, “Set sail!”
“Yes!”
The luxuy cruise ship slowly sailed away.
It had no direction because other than Kathleen, no one knew where this cruise ship would sail to in the end?
However, it also had a single purpose!
Kathleen wanted to find Bach. If he was dead, she wanted to see his corpse! If he was alive, she wanted to see him.
She owed Bach too much. All she could do was find Bach. If Bach were still alive, she would do her best to ensure his safety.
Give Bach what he wanted.
If Bach were dead, she would bring Bach’s body back to be buried!
The cruise ship sailed on the sea for a long time. In two days, it had already passed by a few small islands.
Every time Kathleen and Shane passed by an island, they would go down to check. They wanted to see if they could find any traces of Bach, but they could not!
Then…
That evening, dark clouds covered the sky.
The wind started blowing, and the weather was extremely bad..
