Chapter 677
When she saw how rudely Maribel was knocking on the door, Quinn questioned sharply, "Who are you looking
for?"
"Where''s Catelyn rk?” Maribel tried to look inside. "I work with her. Tell her toe out."
"Catelyn doesn''t live here anymore. You have the wrong ce!" snapped Quinn before trying to shut the door.
Maribel swiftly held the door to prevent Quinn from shutting it and changed her tone. "Miss, here''s the thing -I
need to talk to Catelyn. Do you know where she''s moved to?"
Quinn scanned the woman before her up and down and noticed that this felt somewhat like a confrontation. If
Maribel was friends with Catelyn, she could not possibly be unaware of her new address. If they were
enemies...
Quinn''s eyes lit up. She was still frustrated that Catelyn had chased her out, so she exchanged numbers with
Maribel and provided her with Catelyn''s new address. She would be more than happy to participate in anything
that could cause trouble for Catelyn.
When Maribel arrived at Green Inds, she was stunned at how insanely expensive the apartments here
were.
''Why would Catelyn live here?'' she thought as she suspected that Quinn had lied to her.
She went to the security guard''s post and exined over and over again, but the security guard
refused to let her in. Out of options, she could only try calling Catelyn using the security guard''s phone,
but she did not pick up.
Maribel knew that if she returned without aplishing anything, Hunter would be furious at her, so
she could only wait before the gate for Catelyn to return.

By the time Catelyn returned home from visiting Ste at the hospital, it had already been four hours.
Maribel, though livid, forced a smile when she saw Catelyn. "Director rk? You''re finally back!"
Catelyn purposely looked at her with a dazed expression and asked, "Director Lionel? Aren’t you busy
with closing the deal with Deluxe International? Why are you here?”
Catelyn had only moved recently and not many people knew her new address, so she could not help
but wonder how Maribel found her.
Maribel gritted her teeth but maintained a polite smile regardless. "Director rk, I was wrong before.
Miss Kingsley of Deluxe International is requesting to speak to you only. She''s even saying that we are
unprofessional. When will you have time to pay them a visit?”
"My mom is recovering from surgery, so I''m really busy, " Catelyn said with a troubled expression.
Maribel could only swallow her pride and offer, "It''s fine. Just let me know which hospital your mom is
staying in, and I''ll go look after her for you! Mister Wilson already said that we have to bring you back.
Please forgive me, Director rk. If this project fails, we might all get fired."
Though Maribel was angry, she had notpletely lost her senses. If she managed to convince
Catelyn to meet with Windy, she might have a chance at surviving.
"And what if you suddenly feel like taking charge again halfway through my negotiation with them?"
"I won’t! Even if Mister Wilson asks me to, I won''t..." Maribel shook her head frantically as she stared
pleadingly at Catelyn.
Catelyn despised Maribel’s hypocrisy but knew that she could not exactly ignore the situation as her life
depended on thepany, so she epted the apology and agreed to go back to the officeter in the
afternoon.
When Jolene heard that Maribel only managed to bring Catelyn back to the office after waiting at her
ce for hours, she was amused. "You should have just ignored her for a few more days! That way,
she''ll know who''s boss..."
Catelyn burst intoughter. "If I ignore her any longer, it''ll be Deluxe''s turn toe after US."
Jolene could not help but sigh in silent agreement.
Before they proceeded with work, she mentioned a recent event to Catelyn. The news had reported earlier that
afternoon that one of the pawn shops located north of the city had gone up in mes. Though no one had died
from the incident, three people were injured, and most of the merchandise inside the shop was ruined along
with the inventory.
Catelyn saw the news as well, but since no one had died, she turned her attention back to work.
ording to Jolene, the pawn shop belonged to Jolene''s brother-inw, who was a member of the Cheever
family. Jolene had been worried sick about the shop, and Catelyn simply stared at her in amusement.
Jolene touched her own cheek and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"So your brother-inw is a Cheever?"
The Cheever family owned one of thepanies that had been developing rapidly in recent years, but unlike
the four most powerful families that depended heavily on generations of hard work, their sess was a result
of the current CEO of thepany, who was excellent in fields like technology and antique assessment.
The CEO of Cheever Group had lost his wife years ago, whosest name was also Monroe, which meant that
Jolene was the sister-inw of Mister Cheever.
''It''s no wonder that a luxury car came to pick her up that day then...'' Catelyn thought to herself.
