Fake Heiress, True Queen

“Catherine is the sole heiress to a wealthy family. She grew up surrounded by luxurious food, fine clothes, and was surrounded by servants. However, things took a turn she never expected – she was not her parents' biological daughter. The real daughter of the Kate family has now returned. 20 years ago, at the hospital where she was born, the nurse mistook her for another child. She was just the daughter of an ordinary family. "Catherine, you don't have to call me Grandpa anymore," her once amiable grandfather said calmly. "I propose to kick Catherine out of the family. She is only an outsider and has no right to inherit the family property," Catherine's uncle said coldly. “I’m sorry, Catherine. We owe Millie too much. We made her suffer so much. Now we have to give her more love.” Her parents said something apologetic, but they never looked at Catherine while saying it. Their eyes stayed on Millie the whole time. Catherine smiled. "There's no need to apologize. I should be the one apologizing. As an outsider, I allowed the Kate family to raise me for so many years without any compensation. I'll return what I owe you. Goodbye." Catherine turned and walked out of the Kate household without looking back. Her family banished her, and her former siblings refused to talk to her because she was not the true heiress, but what did it matter? "Boss, I heard that the Kate Family kicked you out of the house! They're asking for it. Should we send someone to ruin the Kate Family?” The leader of the Coven said. "Chairman, as long as you agree, I will bankrupt the Kate family within a month," one of the heads of the world's top financial groups called. "Lady Catherine, do we need to impose legal sanctions on the Kate family?" An official who was in charge of the Kate family's black market asked coldly. She might be a fake heiress, but she was a true queen.

Formal Invitation

Éditeur: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Okay, but let's not talk here. Let's go to my house, if you're willing to listen to me."

Just like that, Catherine officially invited Justin for the first time.

"Oh, then... We'll meet again and talk." Justin suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

"In fact... I bought an extra steak today. If you don't mind..." Seeing that Justin seemed a little shy, Catherine decided to take the initiative.

"Uh, okay... Then I'll see you tonight." Justin hesitated for a while and finally decided to agree. After all, he really wanted to know what case Catherine was involved in.

After the two awkwardly said goodbye, Justin returned to the police station. Unexpectedly, Justin, who had just returned, bumped into David.

"Do you know that girl, young man?" David asked with a smile on his face.

"Yes, I've seen her a few times... Why? What's wrong?" Justin did not seem to understand what David meant.

"To be honest, you should probably steer clear of her. If you want to pursue a girl who is suitable for you, I think you can go to the Zhen AI website to find the girl you like."

David's words were still so frivolous as if he was a playboy – this was completely different from the way he looked when he was handling the case and interrogating.

"What do you mean? By the way, I would like to ask. What case is Catherine involved in exactly?"

"Officer Justin, confidentiality. You know I can't tell you. After all, the interrogation department takes the rules seriously." David suddenly changed his playboy demeanor and said in an extremely serious tone.

"Okay, sir. I promise I won't ask again," Justin answered with a helpless smile.

"Hey, let me give you a piece of advice. If you like this girl, I advise you to give it up. This person's temperament gives me the feeling... That she is more like a leader, or a company leader. Besides, no matter what industry this woman is in, you'd better not interfere with her too much. You can't control a woman like her."

"You're really talkative, aren't you," Justin retorted.

"I asked her, but she only said that she is a journalist from a magazine. And that she's a lowly reporter. I heard that the threshold of the journalism industry is relatively high, and the salary standard is relatively low. Many former journalists have switched to other industries to do jobs that have nothing to do with the media."

"Well... She did say that." David looked depressed. "Forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything. Maybe I was wrong." After saying that, David turned around and left, continuing the work that he had left behind.

Justin suddenly sensed something strange.

David would never admit that he had made a mistake. Not only that, but he was a visionary who helped the department solve many important cases.

Some long-standing cold cases were solved by his unique insight. Every time he held a police conference, no one could keep up with his thinking and perspective.

Today, though, for the first time, he admitted to himself that he might have been wrong about someone. Was it because Catherine was so mysterious that the officer could not see through her?

Back at his desk, Justin wrote "11 Lahaier Street" on a note.

He decided to go see for himself what kind of magic this Miss Catherine Crawford, who even David could not see through, had.

"Drake, do you think I should go to her apartment like this?" Justin asked Drake, who was sitting in the back seat.

"Uh... Kid, if you want to pick up girls, I suggest you look for David. Also, try not to send roses."

"Drake," Justin replied with a smile, "You should get some roses for your wife."

The conversation was divided into two parts.

After Catherine left the police station, she was slightly relieved. She did not expect to meet her crush here again.

To be honest, Catherine did not want to fully display her fake weakness in front of this man. She did not want to use this kind of deception to grab the feelings that he might have.

At such times, Catherine always thought that if she was an ordinary person, it might be a very good thing to make friends of the opposite sex.

Link once said that this was a man was both a soldier and a policeman. A man like him had a much stronger sense of morality than the average policeman.

If she had been bold enough to expose herself to him, she might have destroyed not only herself – but the entire organization.
