Wesley gazed at Catherine affectionately. He said tenderly, "Compared to the company, I'd rather not see you so upset."
Catherine was startled.
Although she knew that Wesley loved her, she never thought that he would casually sacrifice his company’s future for her sake.
"Wesley, I'm not worth it..." she said in a low voice. She was helpless but sincere.
"Why aren't you worth it? You’re the director of a company that has a net worth of 100 billion dollars, Joel's only daughter, and Hazle Group’s head director. You have so many identities. The number of men who want to marry you can even form a queue, yet here you are saying that you’re not worth it." Wesley smiled. "On the other hand, I think you're the one who’s out of my league."
"Stop joking around. Golden Corporation’s ranking has already entered the top 50 megacorporations of the whole nation. The media always does coverage on you, the young up-and-coming president. Many daughters of wealthy families want to get married to you..."
"But I don't want to marry someone whom I don’t love," Wesley interrupted her. "To me, I don’t want to make compromises when it comes to marriage.”
Catherine was at a loss for words.
"I’ll contact Charlie right now..." Wesley stood up.
"Wait." Catherine stopped him. She bit her lip. "I want t o look for Shaun and talk it out with him again."
“Do you think there’s any use talking to him?" Wesley disapproved of the idea. A hint of sadness flashed across his eyes. "Cathy, are you afraid that you'll owe me too much? Or do you have uncontrollable feelings for Shaun again after spending time with him during this period?"
"It’s not that." Catherine could not bear to hurt him. She denied it straight away, saying, "Wesley, the situation isn't that dire to the point that we need to use your company to save Logan. You have to think about it. There’ll still be confrontations between me and Shaun in the future. If we play all our cards now, how will we compete against Liona afterward?"
"But..."
"I have my own ways. I accept your good intentions. A t least I know you're the one who treats me the best." Catherine stood up. "It's late, I have to go."
