Catherine blushed in embarrassment.“I was involved in the designing of Melbourne theater and airport. Besides, I also have experience in project management, but people don’t believe me because of my age. I can’t possibly reveal my identity as the young lady of the Jones family as well because people might form their own opinions on my motive. That’s why I can only choose from being an assistant in a big company or being a designer in a small business,” she explained while quickly gathering the leaflets.“I don’t want to be an assistant because that’s basically doing odd administrative jobs. Someone higher up will undoubtedly take advantage of me and claim my design concepts as their own. I’d rather start building my profile in a small company. Not only can I share a percentage of profit when closing deals, but managing a project also gives out a handsome paycheck. After a year of doing this, I can probably save enough money, build a team, and start my own business. This hardship is

Of course, Chase dared not voice out his opinion. “I know the person in charge of the center quite well. Should I just pull some strings to give her company the project? As far as I know, many other big companies, Summit included, are participating in the bidding too. It’s a fierce competition.”“There’s no need for that. The chance is already presented to her. If she fails to acquire the project, it simply means that she’s not capable. Just ensure it’s a fair competition.” Chase was impressed. This man really showed no mercy even to his own wife. “Right, I’ll do as you say.”Five minutes later, Catherine returned with a bag of streaky pork. “It’s sorted,” he said casually.She appeared startled. Was that all it took? This uncle of Ethan must be a powerful man.“Thank you,” she said sincerely.The corners of his lips curled into a smile. “Now, let’s head home for roast pork.”A look of mock surprise washed over her face. “I wasn’t going to make that. I’m thinking of making pork

“Yup, this is my sketch. Let me know what you think.”Catherine opened the laptop and handed it over.A mysterious dark blue color spread across Shaun’s eyes. At first glance, he felt as if he was traveling through a space-time tunnel surrounded by dazzling starlight.She began explaining the concept behind the design. “This sketch is titled ‘Cosmic Eye’. Look, don’t you think the countless nebulae here resemble pairs of twinkling eyes? I believe the main focus of our future expedition lies in the universe. Over here is the Fourth Dimensional World, designed using Escher style…”He listened attentively as she explained the details with assurance. His eyes remained as still as water although he was secretly overwhelmed with astonishment on the inside. This creativity with a touch of exploration was perfectly suitable for the interior design of a technology center. Indeed, he had underestimated her in the past. He did not expect a young lady born with a silver spoon in the mouth

The gates gradually opened after some time.Rebecca approached her while shielding herself from the rain under an umbrella. A smug look washed over her face. “Cathy, thanks a lot. Your design earned me the right to this project. You really are talented.”Catherine lifted her head, her blood-red eyes glowing with anger. The other woman smiled. “Don’t get too upset. The project would’ve belonged to me with or without your design. Ethan had already pulled the strings for me. Perhaps you have no idea that his uncle is a good friend of President Sawyer? Your design was just a prop to the plan.”Uncle… Shaun?Catherine felt as if a wild animal was tearing her heart into pieces with its sharp claws. Her breathing became erratic.She had genuinely felt grateful to him for giving her a chance. Little did she know that he had already decided the ending beforehand. Why did he lie? He knew how much effort she had poured into this project.Her vision blurred, but she could not tell if it

“Who?”“Catherine Jones! She’s drinking alone at the bar. Ah, she’s still as beautiful as ever.”Janet instantly became agitated. “That b*tch.”She would never forget the humiliation she suffered from being thrown out of the restaurant last time. That incident made her the laughing stock among the elites of Melbourne.She was pleased to hear about what happened in the bidding event today.However, that was not enough. She wanted to destroy her completely. Little did she expect the opportunity to fall upon her so soon.“Zayn Larson, are you still interested in her?”“Well, not really, but she has always looked down on me back when we were in school. I’m quite curious to see what it’s like,” Zayn said crudely, “for her to beg for my forgiveness.”“Sure, I’ll give you the opportunity.”Janet told him the plan. A surge of passion washed through him like waves. “Are you sure about this—”“Don’t worry, I’ll back you up. Catherine has no one on her side now. If something like this h
