Alvina hung up the phone, her expression a little dazed. She looked at the mountain of weeds behind her, and then recalled the man's helpless tone just now. She instantly felt like she wasn't doing a good deed, but instead had touched a man's sore spot.
How could the word depressed be enough to describe it?
Catherine had just reached the company's lobby. The company only took up two floors of the building, but this building had a lot of other businesses, so there were still a lot of people there.
Catherine lowered her head and walked towards the elevator. Suddenly, someone called out to her from behind: "Catherine!"
The moment Catherine heard this voice, which was so familiar that she hated it. She stopped and turned around with a cold expression.
Gabriel was wearing plain clothes, which made his identity inconspicuous. He walked over quickly and asked with a smile: "Catherine, you came to the company so early?"
"Did you come looking for me?" Catherine asked coldly.
"There's something I need your help with. I wonder if it would be convenient for you to come to your office to talk about it!" Gabriel still had a smile on his face.
Catherine used to think that there was something wrong with her head, to think that she would feel that his smile was very pretty and sincere, but now, with the same face and smile, she felt that it was extremely hypocritical.
"If you have something to say, say it!" Catherine said coldly.
"There are too many people here to chat with. How about we have a lunch together?" Gabriel originally wanted to call her and ask her out, but he felt that his sincerity was not enough, hence he came personally.
"There's a cafe on the third floor!" After Catherine finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the stairs.
Gabriel quickly followed behind her, and went up together with her.
"Catherine, you've lost some weight recently. Are you in a bad mood? Is there anything you need my help with?" Gabriel was still concerned about her gently.
"Put away your hypocrisy. Gabriel, I have finally seen through you. On the surface, you seem to be very good at being a person, and very good at accumulating connections between people. But in truth, you are the shrewdest one, and your ability to weigh the pros and cons is also first-rate.” Catherine unceremoniously mocked him.
"Catherine, you must have misunderstood me, and you must have had some prejudices against me. I am truly sincere towards you." Gabriel hurriedly explained to himself.
Catherine sneered and ignored him.
Actually, Catherine also wanted to explain things to him, so she agreed to sit down and chat. Otherwise, she would have turned around long ago and left.
After sitting down in the coffee shop, Gabriel quickly ordered some delicious dishes for Catherine.
Catherine looked at him coldly. Finally, she opened her mouth and asked, "Why are you looking for Mary? Don't you know it's a blow to her that you're looking for her like this?"
"Mary has grown up, so it's time for her to know about some things. Catherine, this is my fault. I didn't consider everything, but you know that I've always been good to Mary since she was young." Gabriel shamelessly said.
"Your kindness is to give her toys, gifts and money, but she doesn't need any of that. What she wants is fatherly love and company. Which one of these things did you give her?" Catherine laughed coldly.
Gabriel looked a little embarrassed, and laughed awkwardly: "Yes, on this point, I did not do well enough, but I will take more care of you two, but right now I am encountering some difficulties, so I want Mary to help me out."
Catherine looked at him as if she was watching a joke, "What is it? You are so shameless. You actually dared to ask Mary for help!”
"Catherine, if I can become the mayor, I will be of great help to you and Mary in the future. I will find more business for you, expand your company, and also help Mary get more connections, making her stronger in the in the entertainment world. That way, everyone will be better off!" Gabriel was truly worthy of his reputation as an eloquent person. Not only did he talk about his gains, he even shared the benefits of Catherine and Catherine.
"Oh, I understand, you have taken a fancy to the mayor's position, and you don't have the ability to climb up there, so you are counting on Leo William to help you right?" Catherine was also a shrewd woman, she would also pay attention to matters of politics. Thus, she immediately guessed his motive.
"Since you know about it, then can you ask Leo William to help me out? I will be grateful to him!" Only now did Gabriel reveal his identity as a political fanatic.
