“It’s quite easy to regain power,” Stephen said all of a sudden.
Struck by thement, Jeffery and his family stared at him intently.
“Stephen, tell us quickly. We’re family,” Reba immediately said, “Once Catherine steps down, I’ll
marry you.”
Stephen narrowed his eyes. “Willie Hill from the Hill family ising to Melbourne for inspection. As
long as you can please him, Hudson’s top management and directors will take your side.”
All of their eyes sparkled.
Jeffery shuddered in agitation. “The Hill family is the most brilliant family in the whole of Melbourne.
Even though Willie isn’t a direct descendant of the Hill family, we’ll be able to increase our status as
long as we be acquainted with the Hills. In that case, we won’t be troubled by Catherine
anymore.”
“Sounds good.” Stephen nodded. “Since Willie’s assistant is rted to my family, I’ll serve him during
the asion and introduce you guys to him. Having said that, you guys need to prepare a gift to
ingratiate with the Hill family. Willie is obsessed with jade.”
“Thank you, Stephen. I regretted not having met you earlier. You’re the one I can actually rely on.”
Reba gazed at him, feeling touched.
Stephen tried to conceal his disgust for her. “It’s my duty.”
…
Hudson.
6:30 p.m.
Just as Catherine turned off the lights and walked out of the office, Director Irvine’s son greeted her
enthusiastically.
“Catherine, you’re getting off work. I’d like to treat you to a meal. I know a western restaurant that
serves great food…”
Catherine was at her wits’ end. Ever since she began to regain power in thepany, all the directors
attempted to tter her by introducing their grandsons and sons to her as her potential partners.

“That’s okay. I’m nning to have dinner at home…”
“Let me send you home, then.” Young Master Levy offered eagerly. “Your handbag seems heavy. Let
me carry it for you.”
Before he could touch it, Elle clutched his hand. The woman’s eyes swept over him coldly, which made
him shudder. Young Master Irvine had heard that Catherine’s bodyguard was ferocious and particrly
skilled at pping people.
“If you do it one more time, I won’t hesitate to break your hand,” Elle warned him icily.
Young Master Levy shrank back embarrassedly. “Do you know who I am? Fine. I’m not going to lower
myself to your level.”
At that moment, the elevator happened to arrive. He then quickly went after her. “Catherine, have you
heard of the Queen’s ne? Rumor has it that five to six decades ago, a king gave his beloved
queen a ne in Country F. Anyone who wears the ne will achieve happiness in their
rtionship. The ne will soon be up for auction in Melbourne. I’m going to buy it for you, okay?”
“No, thank you. I’m not interested.”
Young Master Irvine resembled a sticky candy that was hard to get rid of.
As soon as Catherine walked out of the building, she spotted a familiar figure standing in the square.
She was filled with a mixture of surprise and delight.
The neon lights gradually lit up at night. Shaun, who stood beside the fountain, was dressed in a ck
suit and an apricot-colored overcoat as if he had just participated in Paris Fashion Week. He looked
elegant, and his features were indeed attractive.
However, his dark eyes shed with grimness the minute he caught sight of the man who went after
Catherine.
“Shaunny, why are you here?” Catherine did not notice Shaun’s expression. She ran toward him and
wrapped her hands around his arm pleasantly.
The grimness within his eyes slowly faded. He gave Young Master Irvine an impassive stare. “It looks
like I came at the wrong time.”
“Who is he, Catherine?” Young Master Irvine was annoyed at Shaun. While both of them wore
overcoats, the way Shaun was dressed made him seem like a countryman.
