Catherine’s POV
“It’s starting now. How is it? Are you satisfied with the client I set you up with?” I heard a clear male voice, which sounded slightly complacent.
I took my phone and quickly walked towards a quieter place.
“Why are you doing this?” I didn’t call him by his name because there were always people walking past me.
Compared with Blake, I had to be much more cautious when dealing with Leo, because Leo was too famous. If those women knew that I was talking to Leo on the phone, I would be in trouble again.
“No reason. I’m just showing support for your work,” Leo said faintly, and then he sounded unhappy somehow. “You don’t sound happy at all. Don’t you want me to help you?”
“It’s not like that. I am grateful to you for your help.”
“Really? You don’t sound grateful at all. You didn’t even thank me.”
I couldn’t help but chuckle. Then I formally thanked him, “Leo, thanks for your help.”.
“I don’t think expressing your gratitude verbally will be enough. Don’t you think?” Leo was pushing it.
I was stunned and then said, “Fine. When I get my bonus this month, you’ll have half of it. How does that sound?”
“If money is what you’re offering, then just forget it. The bonus you’ll receive is really nothing to me,” he said.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
“Enough for now. I got to go. My boss is looking for me.” I saw Guy coming from afar, so I hung up quickly.
“Catherine!” Guy called me by my name warmly.
I quickly walked up to him and politely said, “Mr. Tenny, what can I help you with?”
“I need you to help me send some files over to the headquarters. I was going to ask Melinda to do it, but she’s out. So, I hope you don’t mind.” Guy smiled and put the files in my hand.
I was stunned and asked, “Mr. Tenny, who should I send it to?”
“Henry, King Blake’s Beta. He’ll be waiting for you in the lobby,” Guy said loudly and disappeared outside the office
door.
I looked down at the paper bag in my hand. It was sealed. I didn’t know what it was, but since Guy personally asked me to deliver it, it must be something important.
Since it was an order given by my superior and also a matter of business, I did not dare to neglect it. I drove to the headquarters building immediately.
I still remembered it clearly. Back then, when Noah and I were sitting in Carl’s car, we passed by the headquarters of the Chavez Group. Noah leaned over the window, pointed to the two big buildings outside, and exclaimed. He said he wanted to go inside to take a look
And now I was stepping into the headquarters. Meanwhile, Noah’s dream came true, too, because this building belonged to Blake, his daddy.
After I parked the car, I walked quickly towards the lobby on the first floor of the building.
As I walked closer, I realized that the building was much bigger than I thought. My heart skipped a beat. I looked up and felt dizzy. My legs were weak.
Get Betus
I had accepted the fact that Blake was rich. However, I only came to realize the influence brought by money when I was here now, standing at the foot of his company building.
Blake’s image and identity seemed to have become even more intimidating because of this building, which was made of money.
The images and thoughts in my mind made me feel uneasy.
I couldn’t help but mock myself. I couldn’t argue with Blake anymore even if he said I was pretending to be aloof in front of him. Compared with him, I was just a nobody. He was, after all, the Lycan King of this land, New Jersey.
“Ms. Wyatt, over here!”
The moment I stepped in, before I went to the front desk, I saw Henry waiting for me with a smile.
I had to walk over to him and hand hirn the paper bag in my hand. “Henry, this is the file Mr. Tenny asked me to give you. Here you are. I’ll head off now.”
“Ms, Wyatt, wait a second. Come with me. I have some signed papers to return to Mr. Tenny,” Henry said quickly.
Hearing that, I nodded. “OK. Let’s go.”
“Ms. Wyatt, how have the Prince and the Princess been? I haven’t seen them for a few days. I miss them so much.” Henry made small talk with me.
Henry struck me as a nice person overall. Since he said this, I naturally replied, “If you want to see them, you can tag along with King Blake.”
Henry smiled dryly. “You’re right. I’ll be sure to check with King Blake.”
As we chatted, the elevator arrived. Henry politely gestured to me and said, “Ms. Wyatt, this way. Please wait for me in the conference room for a few minutes while I sort the papers out before sending them over.”
“Sure. Take your time. No rush.” I pushed open the door of the conference room next to me.
But after I entered, I found that there was someone inside.
It was a man. He was standing in front of the French window with his hands behind his back, tall and domineering,
Simply his back was intimidating enough. Yet I was shocked. Why was Blake here?
When Blake heard the sound of the door opening, he turned his head. He saw me, and his thin lips curved slightly. “You’re here.”
I narrowed my eyes when I heard his words. “You seem to know I’ll be here.”
“Of course, because I’m the one who called you here.” Blake didn’t lie to me. He answered faintly.
I became even more restless. He tricked me into coming here using work as an excuse. What did he want?
“Why did you call me over?” I said coldly while taking a few steps to the side and distancing myself from him.
Blake put his hands in the pockets of his pants and looked down at me. He looked somehow nervous.
“I just wanted to see you. It would be easier for us to talk without the kids here.” His voice became lower,
I sneered, “What do you want to say to me? How nasty could it be that you don‘t want the kids to hear?”
“Cathy,” he called my name in a low voice, and his magnetic voice was full of affection, which made my heart tense.
