Pentaland Group announced that Louis and Lola were their new ambassadors and reposted the announcement on various social media platforms.Lola requested them to do so and even purposely spread rumors that she was dating Louis when the poster was released to increase her popularity.To her bewilderment, Louis's female admirers were not happy with it. They all started leaving comments that said Lola was not a match for Louis because she was too ugly; some even went as far as to dig into her background and said that Lola had been abandoned by the Atherton Family.Lola did not care about other comments, but the one that said she was abandoned by the Atherton Family had offended her deeply. Anger had taken hold of her senses, and she immediately replied to the comment viciously.However, she had forgotten to switch to her anonymous account before doing so, and her post had been screenshotted even though she deleted it right away.Swarmed by negative comments, Lola simply handed her soc
However, it was evident Mister Zimmer had lost his shape. He had a beer belly, and when he smiled, she could see a layer of yellow taint on his teeth."Come, Miss Clark—a toast." Mister Zimmer raised his glass.Catelyn hesitated and said, "I'm sorry, Mister Zimmer. I've had an allergy lately, and the doctor says I can't consume alcohol.""It's just one glass. Are you really going to refuse me?" Mister Zimmer lowered his tone dangerously.She spotted a teapot on the table and immediately reached out to pour herself a cup of tea. "Mister Zimmer, please allow me to drink tea instead. I really can't drink alcohol; my face will be filled with red bumps and marks if I do. I can't look like that out here..."Her smile was blinding and alluring in a way that resembled a blooming flower.Mister Zimmer nodded, reluctant to take his eyes off Catelyn even as he did so.Catelyn gulped down two cups of tea in front of Mister Zimmer; the fragrance of the tea lingered on the tip of her tongue.
Quinn, at this moment, was placed as the person in charge in Pentaland.She could have saved Maribel right away, but she wanted Catelyn's reputation to be ruined beyond repair. The best way to ruin a woman's reputation, after all, was to do it the same way she did to Queenie Mason.While waiting for Maribel, Quinn received a phone call."How are things coming along?" Quinn sounded a lot more powerful than she used to be. She was starting to like the feeling of bossing people around, even.She finally understood why those who got rich grew arrogant. Why not, with all the money and power that could fuel a person's ego?Maribel's attitude was much better than before as she flatteringly replied, "Not to worry, Miss Weir; I saw it myself that Mister Zimmer added the drug into the teapot. Catelyn won't get away this time.""Once you get the video, remember to send it to me immediately.""Regarding the thing that you promised me…""If you can ruin Catelyn, I'll give you enough money f
Catelyn was startled when she realized that it was David. "It's…you?"She almost thought he was Cedrick."What happened to you?" David's face under his golden framed spectacles seemed so gentle.Catelyn relied on her willpower to support her body, recalling that Cedrick did not like her getting too close to David. She then leaned against the wall and panted heavily. Her face was blushing as though she was drunk."I just drank a little too much, don't worry. I'll be fine in a bit…"David did not detect any scent of alcohol on her and thus believed her, and while he was skeptical of her answer, he did not expose her either. He merely said, "Let me send you home, or I should ask Cedrick to come pick you up?""He s—should be here soon.""Alright." David did not plan to leave her on her own, still. He would wait until Cedrick was here, and only then he would leave. At that moment, Maribel came by. She saw David standing next to her and felt a little shaken. However, she noticed tha
Although Catelyn had not fully regained consciousness, she could tell the man holding her to his chest was Cedrick solely from his scent.Leaning in his arms, she let out a steady sigh."You have Windy now, so keep your nasty hand from the woman you shouldn't touch." Cedrick looked at David coldly.Not wanting to be outdone by his imposing manner, David put one hand in his pocket and refuted, "It was your wife who threw herself toward me and held me. If you look carefully, you'll notice that she also crumpled my shirt. It's an Italean designer's handmade masterpiece that took months to finish.""I've paid for the clothes, and the check will be sent to your office.""Well, now. Thank you, deep pocket." David pushed the glasses frame on the bridge of his nose and glanced at Maribel on the ground. "By the way, that lady is up to something disadvantageous to your wife. My opinion is…get rid of her, and leave no mark behind."David, the man who was never soft-hearted to his enemies, d
"Have you forgotten everything?" rang a voice from Catelyn's bedside.Catelyn frowned and slowly began to recall what had happened. She barely remembered that she was discussing the details of the quality inspection's results with Mister Zimmer, the quality inspector hired by the company, but found herself drugged soon after.'I remembered running out of the room and bumping into...David!'"Any picture in mind?" Cedrick frowned when he saw her expression, feeling that she had regained some of her memories.Catelyn was taken away by David last night, and Cedrick could not imagine what would happen to her if he was slightly late.Just as Cedrick had worried about, Catelyn did not know what David would have done to her, but she knew that she would not be lucky enough to get away like this time if this happened again.She did not dare to refute the man when she looked into his gloomy, cold eyes, and weakly tugged at the hem of his clothes. "I know I was careless. I promise it won't h
"Then, you have to be careful, and don't let the bad guys bully you!" Miles warned anxiously before he hung reluctantly.Cedrick and Catelyn were very close to each other, so when he heard Miles' last sentence about the bad guy, Cedrick raised his eyebrows slightly, knowing Miles meant him.After hanging up the phone, Catelyn let out a long sigh. The older Miles got, the harder it was to fool him.Soon, the infusion bottle had run out of liquid. The doctor came over to do a body check and found out that Catelyn had recovered greatly, much to Catelyn's relief.The doctor was freaked out by Cedrick's vicious look when he checked on Catelyn."Thank you, doctor, I'm much better now." Catelyn sat up, positive that she was not dizzy anymore.The doctor put away the infusion bottle and needle, threw them into the trash to take them away later, and winked at her implicitly. "Miss Clark, Master Cedrick has been so kind to you. He knew you didn't like the smell of the hospital, so he had m
Due to the quality assurance company's popularity in Sapphire City, it did not take long for the information of Executive Mister Zimmer to be discovered.The most ridiculous fact was that Mister Zimmer was afraid of his wife. It was said that he married his wife when he was young and lived under her parent's roof since then.Catelyn soon found Missus Zimmer's email and sent the video to her. 'You have my respect for cheating on your wife who supported you for your success.'As for what Missus Zimmer would do after seeing this video, that was none of Catelyn's business.…The next morning when Catelyn returned to the company, everyone was preparing for the demolition of the building that would happen on the upcoming Friday.Everyone was attentive.Maribel arrived late, and her heavy makeup could not cover the dark circles under her eyes.Jolene knew what happened last night, so she pretended to be puzzled and shouted, "Hey, Associate Director Lionel! Didn't you sleep last night?
