Shaun choked for a few seconds before he came to and thought on his feet. "Paying you back isn't enough to express my gratitude to you. I know a great restaurant around. I was wondering if you are free this afternoon..."
"Thank you, but I'm not." Catherine rejected him categorically.
"When will you be free then? You can set a time. I'll go with your schedule," Shaun said right away.
Exasperated, Catherine answered, "I'll never be available to you."
"Coincidentally, I'll always be available to you..."
She hung up before Shaun could finish his sentence.
Shaun looked at the phone and laughed. In less than a minute, he received the QR code from Catherine on Hadley’s phone.
He scanned the code using his phone and transferred 52 thousand dollars to her. 1
In the office.
When Catherine saw the money, she had no thought o f returning it to him.
So what if he gave her extra money? He had hurt her badly, yet he did not pay her a penny when he divorced her. Therefore, she would not even bat an eye if he gave her 500 million dollars, much less 50,000 dollars.
At 11:00 a.m., Freya called Catherine. "I went to the Snow family's house this morning. Regarding the elevator incident yesterday, Uncle Nathan said that someone intentionally destroyed the cable. Based on the Mead family's investigation, the evidence points t o Chelsea."
"Chelsea?" Catherine was surprised. "I saw the Campos family egging her on last night, so she's obviously brainless. How could she do that?"
"Yeah. Uncle Nathan said it might have to do with the Campos family, but they’ve shifted the blame to Chelsea. What's more, everyone saw Chelsea coming into conflict with Shaun last night. The police have arrested her for interrogation.”
Catherine replied, “Tsk. It looks like the Campos family has made Chelsea a scapegoat. Having said that, is Senator Mead not bothered about the matter?"
"From what Uncle Nathan said, it seems that the Mead family isn't planning to look into it."
