My Mate Has Two Wolves

Chapter 98

Catherine‘s POV

I slept soundly. The next morning, 1 felt refreshed. Maybe it was because Blake apologized to me yesterday, which made me feel less pressure, so I didn‘t suffer from insomnia again.

“Where‘s your daddy?” I went downstairs and found Noah sitting alone at the table. I couldn‘t help asking.

Noah pointed outside the door and said, “Daddy said he‘d skip breakfast because something came up at work.”

“OK.” I frowned. Did he really have something urgent to deal with? Or did he deliberately take off in advance just to avoid the embarrassment? I had no idea.

But anyway, he made it a lot easier for me.

After breakfast, Dowen sent the children to school.

I arrived at the office and began my busy day‘s work.

I had reached a consensus with Melinda, and we had our eyes on several people. So, while I was working, I was also secretly observing. I wanted to find the person who tripped me that day.

I had to know. I wouldn‘t suffer in silence.

“Catherine, hurry to the reception room and wait. Lorelei will be here in ten minutes.” Melinda walked over and knocked on my desk

I nodded. “I‘ll grab the files and wait for her there.”

Around ten minutes later, Lorelei appeared at the door of the reception room, looking high–profile.

She was wearing a cool leather suit today. The tight leather pants accentuated her tall and slender figure, and she looked charming

As soon as she entered the reception room, she took off her sunglasses. With a lazy look, she glanced at me, who was sitting upright, and sneered, “Catherine, as my personal designer, you should at least be presentable. Don‘t wear the same black business outfit every day! You look so lame. I wouldn‘t have worked with you at all if I hadn‘t known you were gifted.”

I didn‘t expect that Lorelei would loathe me as soon as she came in. I smiled politely and said, “Ms. Pope, unlike you, I am not a big star. I am just an ordinary person. I dress based on my personal preference. I can‘t help it if you dislike

it.”

Lorelei pulled out a chair and sat down. “Is the work done? Show me.”

I handed over the design drawings. Lorelei casually flipped through a few pages, and her eyes were filled with satisfaction. “Not bad. They fit me perfectly. Where do you get all this inspiration? I hope you didn‘t copy someone else‘s work You and I signed a contract. If these aren‘t from you, instead, you steal them from someone else, or if they get leaked, you would have to pay me ten times as compensation. You are a woman who can‘t even afford too many clothes. I‘ll feel sorry for you if you really have to pay me that much. Therefore, I advise you not to breach a single clause of the contract.”

I listened to her speech and smiled. “We work with sincerity, of course, we will abide by the contract. Don‘t worry, I promise that these are my original work, and these are exclusive to you.”

“Good. Can you deliver the set of clothes I want tomorrow? I‘ve got a gig. I could use that.” Lorelei nodded.

“OK I‘ll get someone to send it to you tomorrow. Break a leg,” I said politely. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Lorelei nodded in satisfaction. “Thanks. If I pull it off, I will send you a gift. Think of it as your reward.”

“You‘re being so kind. Thanks, Ms. Pope.” Though I felt that Lorelei could be rather arrogant and self– centered at times, I did not want to lose a client. Naturally, 1 treated het with sincerity.

After Lorelei left, I went back to my desk and found that someone was staring at me. It was Vanessa.

Something was fishy. I had a feeling that Vanessa was the person who had tripped me that day, because she was the only one in this office that I had offended.

Also, I learned from Melinda that Vanessa was a very scheining woman. She had been very close to Guy, the head of the Design Department of the Chavez Group, since a few years ago, and everyone believed that those two had affairs.

I looked back at Vanessa. She was startled, and she quickly lowered her head, pretending to do her thing.

Her guilty look made me even more certain that she was the one.

What a shame. Unfortunately, I didn‘t have any proof. And there was no surveillance camera in the hotel room that day. Therefore, it was hard for me to find any evidence.

At 2 pm, not long after I started working, a cute girl suddenly showed up in the office, causing quite a commotion.

“Is Catherine here?” asked the girl while grabbing someone.

As soon as the person saw the girl‘s face, he immediately became surprised and excited. “You are Jessica Hall? Really?”

Jessica became famous after she had worked with Leo in a few movies. She was only eighteen years old, and she was already a well–known star.

Jessica walked up to me and stretched out her hand. “Catherine? Hello, my name is Jessica. I‘m here to discuss business with you.”

My eyes widened. “Jessica! I‘ve seen you in movies. You are so good at acting, and I‘m surprised to see you so young. Is there anything I can do for you?”

“Yes. I‘m here to discuss business with you,” Jessica emphasized again.

“What kind of business?” I was a little surprised. The colleagues next to me were already dumbfounded. I was new here, yet I had another big client coming to my door. Though Jessica was still young, she was famous. The deal she offered would definitely be a good one.

Hearing her words, I quickly stood up. I smiled and said, “We shouldn‘t be standing here. Let‘s go and find a meeting room so that we can sit down and talk.”

“Sure.” Jessica glanced at me and nodded.

In the reception room, I poured her a glass of water and looked at her. “Why did you come to me?”

“My boss recommended you. It‘s Leo. You know him, right” Jessica was young, but she sounded mature.

I froze. How could I not know him?

“Yes, I know him. Did he introduce you to me?” I didn‘t expect Leo to do this. I didn‘t know if I should thank him.

“Yes. He said that he would take care of your business. I am the first one. Someone will come to you tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.”

I was even more surprised. “Seriously? Would he do that? Would he set me up with so many clients?”
