    Chapter 959 Bring Catherine Down


    Zobber turned around and briefed Withal on the situation with a puzzled expression. She said, "It seems like I got a call from ck Robe just now. He told me to take down Mr. Duncan at the Duncan Corporation''s showcase in a month."


    Withal frowned and then turned to make a call to Catherine. Two minutester, Withal turned back to Zobber with the update. "The information is confirmed. Catherine says the Duncan Corporation''s showcase is indeed next month, not publicly announced yet, and only a few people internally are aware of it."


    Zobber eximed in excitement, ''Wow! These people are too formidable. Information like this should only be known by the top executives of the Duncan Corporation. They must have deep connections to get this intel so quickly.''


    Withal sneered with disdain. He replied, "If they weren''t nted in the higher-ups, how could he boldly promise you half of the Duncan Corporation?"


    Zobber found it made sense. It seemed that ck Robe had more than one operative within the Duncan Corporation. She asked, "Withal, what should we do now?"


    Withal shrugged nonchntly. "What else can we do? Just do as he says."


    Zobber was surprised and thought inwardly, "Does he really think I''m a member of the ck Robe organization? Expects me to take orders unquestioningly?"


    Withal quickly sensed Zobber''s thoughts. "Don''t forget what we told you before. If you can''t do it, you have to step back from this mission. Remember that you''ve already betrayed the Hacker Alliance, and you and Catherine are not on good terms. Understand?"


    They all knew the prowess of ck Robe. For Zobber to gain his trust, she should change her attitude. If she showed reluctance in betraying Catherine, she wouldn''t be able to fulfill the task.


    After some contemtion, Zobber understood his words. "I got it. Don''t worry. I won''t jeopardize the mission."


    Withal wasn''t concerned about the mission failing. He cared more about Zobber''s safety. He didn''t want anything to happen to any of his friends.


    In thete night, the office was still illuminated. Selene stared at the photos she had just received on her desk, her eyes reddened with anger.


    Not long ago, her father had called. He warned her to stay away from Branden to avoid unnecessary media attention. He also advised her not to harbor unrealistic thoughts, emphasizing that Branden was beyond her reach.


    Selene thought inwardly, "Why? I''m educated and good-looking. Besides a slightly lower social status, how am I any worse than Catherine? Why does everyone tell me not to fantasize about Branden? Am I that undeserving?" Selene refused to give up. She red at Catherine''s photo with resentment. She was sure her father wouldn''t call without reason. Only Karl could influence him. Without a doubt, Catherine must have schemed behind the scenes, prompting Karl''s sudden concern.


    Selene became angrier as she thought about it. This matter couldn''t be left as it was. She had to make Catherine pay.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    When Rn returned to the office, he noticed the lights still on in Selene''s office. Slowly entering, he saw Selene holding Catherine''s files with hatred in her eyes. He knew she was plotting revenge against Catherine.


    Sensing someone approaching, Selene looked up. Upon seeing Rn, she said with a cold smile, "Mr. Melton, don''t tell me you''re here to visit me."


    Rn walked up to her and took Catherine''s files from her hands coldly. Scanning her with mocking and cold


    eyes, he warned, "Don''t forget your mission. Your target is Branden, not Catherine."


    Seleneughed and then replied, "Worried, huh? I haven''t even made a move yet. Rn, our goals are the same. My target is Branden. However, nobody said I couldn''t mess with Catherine. I''m doing it. What are you going to do about it?"


    Suddenly, Rn gripped Selene''s delicate neck. "Don''t take my warning lightly. If you want to challenge me, go ahead. I''d like to see how long you can survive!"


    He looked at Selene with his cold eyes. There was no hint of joking in his words.


    Selene realized that if she didn''t agree, Rn would kill her. She remained silent and refrained from provoking him further. The standoff continued, and the atmosphere became tense.


    After a while, a ringtone shattered the silence. Rn answered the call. His cold face gradually darkened. After the call, Rn reluctantly released Selene and warned, ''Remember my words. Don''t test my patience."


    Selene stared at him coldly. She maintained a defiant attitude outwardly but felt immensely uneasy inside. It was a fear of death she couldn''t suppress because she knew Rn was serious.


    After saying that, Rn turned and left the office without giving Selene another nce. Once he was gone, Selene was relieved and copsed to the floor. Her legs felt shaky. If not for the timely call, she might not have survived tonight.


    Rn''s sudden return to the office wasn''t for work. He was here to warn Selene for Catherine.


    Selene detested Catherine. In her view, Catherine was slutty and always hooked up with men. She turned the Duncans into her pawns and even made Rn stand by her.


    However, Selene gained something this night. She was originally unsure of how to deal with Catherine, but Rn''s appearance provided her with an opportunity to bring Catherine down.


    Since everyone seemed to be on Catherine''s side, Selene was determined to make them realize what kind of person Catherine truly was. Selene wanted to witness her downfall when no men supported Catherine.
