    She lifted the phone to take a look. There was a recording inside which recorded what Henry had said


    just now.


    “It’s up to you to handle the recording in the phone I’m giving you.” Shaun shot a nce at her. “Curb


    your temper next time. You lost in the bidding only because you didn’t take care of your design. Treat


    this as a lesson. You need to be wary of everyone in the workce.”


    Catherine looked at him with a dazed yetplicated expression.


    She had assumed that Reba won the bidding because Shaun and President Sawyer pulled some


    strings. At this moment, she was a little puzzled, not knowing why he would help her.


    Was it Reba who made false statements and lied to her?


    “Why are you spacing out again?” Shaun was dissatisfied. At that moment, she was supposed to feel


    extremely grateful to him.


    “I’m just… Nothing. Anyway, thank you so much,” Catherine said sincerely.

    “You should really thank me, but it’s meaningless to thank me verbally like this,” Shaun mocked.


    “I’ll make you roast pork once I recover. You can’t eat it every day, though. Otherwise, you’ll have fatty


    liver disease…”


    “Who said I like roast pork? I was willing to eat it only because that was the least unappetizing dish you


    prepared among many other dishes,” Shaun interrupted out of annoyance.


    Catherine had enough. This man enjoyed eating meat that tasted sweet. Was he not afraid of losing his


    dignity?


    Catherine tried to stifle the urge to giggle. Despite being baffled by his refusal to be frank, she nodded


    in acknowledgment.


    “Yes. It’s my fault, and I’ve reflected on myself. By the way, how much is the phone? Also the caregiver


    and the hospital charges. Let me pay you back.”


    She sounded diffident toward the end of her sentence. With only a few thousand dors altogether, she


    might not be able to pay him back.


    “No need. I’ll treat those fees as your pay for being Fudge’s sitter.”


    “But…”


    “I’m not desperate for that miserable amount of money,” Shaun interjected. “I’m going to the office now.


    I’ll ask the caregiver to assist you with the discharge process tomorrow. Get home early to take care of


    Fudge.”


    “Okay, I will.”


    …


    11:00 a.m.


    Freya came over in a hurry.


    At the sight of Catherine, anger welled up inside Freya.


    “Are we still friends? You didn’t even inform me about this serious matter. If it weren’t for me asking for


    Young Master Harrison’s contact number, I wouldn’t have found out that you’re in the hospital.”


    “I dropped my phone, and I haven’t gotten my SIM card reced.”


    Freya’s face revealed concern when she clutched Catherine’s hand. “What actually went onst night?


    Did you really be an undercover agent for the police?”


    Catherine immediately figured it out. Apparently, the police had made an official announcement.


    “What’s being circting around at the moment?”


    Freya averted her eyes which were sparkling. “Some people believe it, while some don’t.”


    “That’s normal. Many people have long since been waiting for my embarrassing moments.”


    Having experienced the worst, Catherine wasposed. She just briefly told Freya what had


    happened during the bidding event yesterday.


    Freya was so furious that she eximed, “Ethan’s such a b*stard. That’s very scummy of him. Is he


    even a human? He treated you so well back then, and now he haspletely changed. How did


    Reba bewitch him into beating you?”


    “Perhaps he wasn’t really in love with me back then. He only loves the pampered youngdy from the


    wealthy Jones family. To him, it doesn’t matter who she is.” Catherine shrugged mockingly.


    “Don’t be mad. The news that I read this morning reported that the person in charge of Melbourne


    Culture and Technology Center was frequently involved in bribery, so he’s currently being suspended


    and investigated. Yesterday’s bidding event is also affected. Based on thements online, many


    reckon that Summit gave President Sawyer some benefits in private which contributed to the oue


    of the eventst night.”


    Catherine was dumbfounded. “How is that possible?”


    “Why would I lie to you? Let me show you the news.”


    Freya swiftly turned on her phone and searched for the website to show Catherine.
