The Traps of the Black Swan (Book 2)

345

Ruby Jane was the founder and president of Skylar Industries. Catherine knew Ruby Jane's business experience was something she didn't have. Ruby Jane's smartness or her level-headedness was something she doesn't hold. Her help would be much needed for Dawson companies.

Catherine's priority was the company so that it could help her give a comfortable life to Sara. So she pointed at Robert while looking at Ruby Jane, "Would you like for me to kill him? I will do it." Since Robert and his friends tried to kill Ruby Jane, Catherine thought that would be the payback.

Ruby Jane: "..."

Robert was shocked. He tried to speak but no words came out.. Looking at Catherine's seriousness, he tried to run away to keep his life safe.

Ruby Jane and Catherine turned to the door when Robert was close to escaping. Anyway, Max vented his previous frustration by punching the man back into the mansion.

While Max kicked Robert inside, Ruby Jane cleared her throat with a gentle cough. A vengeful woman is indeed scary. She couldn't believe Catherine was ready to kill her husband.

Catherine identified Max, who no longer behaved like a young boy but a man with a temper.

Ruby Jane spoke, "Mrs. Dawson, I don't care if you divorce him or not, considering that he disappeared from the world."

Robert was groaning in pain when he heard Ruby Jane. He assumed she was going to kill him hence he started screaming, "Help... Help... They are going to kill me..."

'Pooh,' Max kicked him in the stomach, sending him flying away. He was playing football.

"Letting him live is a waste of space and food." Catherine mercilessly remarked, guessing Ruby Jane didn't mean to kill her husband.

Ruby Jane felt like she should bring Eliza to Catherine. Eliza's personality will be strengthened. Now she focused on waste of space and food, "If the servants don't work from dawn to dark at my farm, under the blazing sun or harsh rain or biting cold, they get nothing to eat. If they laze around, they will be whipped in the ass." They weren't her Laze to treat them nice for just walking and playing around.

Catherine almost burst into laughter hearing Ruby Jane's words. For the people who lived in luxury, living such a life would be worse than death. Working their ass off for food every day felt like a perfect life for her husband, "That sounds like an interesting punishment." She wanted to witness it but didn't voice it.

Ruby Jane took her words as acceptance to her second reason. So she focused on the first, "I want you to threaten Seungri tomorrow in the meeting. Demand your money from Harmon Industries, at the same time show your distrust in the President of the company."

Catherine wasn't well versed in the business so she didn't understand how she could threaten the cunning Seungri. If Seungri steps down from the position, who will return her money.

The confidence on Catherine's face wavered, for not understanding anything. So Ruby Jane toned her voice like a teacher who is trying to make her understand, "Today, you have to ask some time from your company shareholders for recovering the money."

Catherine nodded her head in understanding. Ruby Jane continued, "Tomorrow, with your company legal team, reach Harmon Industries. There will be a meeting, you have to threaten Seungri to sue for your losses due to the negligence in the project. And state your distrust of him in front of all the shareholders of Harmon Industries."

Ruby Jane saw Catherine again getting confused. She had no time to explain all the clauses so she looked at the man who had worked as an assistant to President Dawson. "Your assistant will guide you through all the process. You can trust him."
