Katherine got off her bed and casually said, "So much nonsense.I'll hang up the call.I'm going to
freshen up before I have my breakfast.''
Hearing Katherine's indifference, Alice still enthusiastically asked, "Hey, wait! Aren't you shocked?
Aren't you excited?"
Dazedly staring at the dazzling sunlight outside the window, Katherine furrowed her brows and said,
"But my heart is as tranquil as water."
"Come on, how can you be this..."
Alice said in a teasing manner but came to a halt when she heard the sound of beeping blaring from
the other line.
Before Alice could finish speaking, Katherine had already hung up the phone.
Katherine was awesome! In fact, before Katherine had fallen asleep last night, she had already
guessed that Zack was the one who suppressed that trending topic.
It had to be said that his words, "Did you really love me?"
had quite an impact on her.
Didn't Zack always think she was an overconfident, greedy, and such a hypocritical woman?
Furthermore, Zack always displayed that her affection was meaningless to him.
Katherine had not expected him to pose such a heartfelt question after their divorce.
She found it funny.
Nonetheless, Katherine hadn't had much time to hear how or why Zack suppressed the trending topic.
The thing she wanted to do was to get rid of Natalie and stop her from pestering her life.
After having her breakfast, Katherine drove out.
In fact, she did not want to be entangled with people related to Zack.
Yet, Katherine had tolerated Natalie's schemes three times in a row now! If Katherine didn't retaliate,
Natalie would probably think that she was too easy to bully.
As such, Helen, who was Alice's manager, introduced a private investigator she'd known to Katherine.
After inviting him, it was decided that he and Katherine would meet at precisely ten o'clock in the
morning.
Although she left at half-past nine, Katherine ran into a minor vehicle accident halfway through.
She was delayed by ten minutes, so she was already six minutes late by the time she parked her car.
The melodious music could only be heard inside the restaurant.
As soon as Katherine walked through the door, she noticed that only one person was quietly sitting
there.
"I apologize for being late, Mr.Davis,’ Katherine said as she greeted him.
When the other party saw her, he was obviously taken aback, but he reacted immediately by saying, "It
doesn't matter; I just arrived not too long ago.’
Katherine smiled and directly pulled out 100,000 dollars from her bag and placed it in front of him.
She said straightforwardly, "Mr.Davis, as I stated over the phone, this is the deposit, and I will give you
seven days”
The private investigator was most likely not expecting Katherine to be so forthright.
Looking at Katherine, he was a little surprised and couldn't help but remark, "Ms.Wilson is more
attractive and forthcoming than I expected."
Katherine politely replied, "I just don't like to waste my time, so I hope you don't mind."
Benjamin nodded.
"I understand.Then Miss Wilson, wait for my news."
Indeed, when speaking with an intelligent person, it was really simple to reach an agreement.
Quite satisfied with his response, Katherine smiled as she replied, "Okay, then I'll wait for your news,
Mr.Davis."
At first, Benjamin had intended to invite Katherine to lunch, but he felt a little intimidated when his gaze
rested on Katherine's expressive peach blossom eyes.
In the end, he could only say, "Then I'll leave first.’
"Okay”
Katherine nodded and sipped her lemon water.
She waved to the waiter and took the menu after seeing Benjamin had left.
Since she was already here, Katherine realized that she might as well eat her lunch.
Katherine was not in a hurry because it was still early, so she leisurely sat there and flipped through the
menu.
Katherine wryly smiled as she thought about how lucky she was to encounter Natalie here.
To be precise, she had just placed an order when Natalie entered the restaurant, intimately holding a
man’s arm.
Of course, Katherine was quite familiar with that man.
If she remembered correctly, he was the Collins Family's youngest son, who had just returned last year
after studying abroad.
There were few people in the restaurant at the moment, so Natalie saw Katherine at a glance.
For a brief moment, Natalie's expression froze, and she unconsciously loosened her grasp on Oliver's
arm.
Katherine couldn't help but smirk when she saw Natalie's reaction.
As she watched Natalie walk towards her, Katherine raised her hand to support her chin.
Then, she sarcastically said, "What a coincidence, Ms.Cooper”
Natalie's expression abruptly changed.
Although she didn't really want to greet Katherine, she had no choice, so she replied, "Miss Wilson.’
Glancing at the man beside Natalie, Katherine's delicate brows slightly furrowed as if she didn't
recognize Oliver, who was standing alongside Natalie.
She asked, seemingly perplexed, "Who is this?"
After a brief pause, Katherine continued, "A friend?"
Katherine snorted and felt that it was pretty interesting.
Suddenly, she seemed to understand something and looked at Natalie meaningfully.
"Oh, then I won't disturb you."
Natalie felt uncomfortable being stared at by Katherine, and she also didn't want to talk to Katherine in
front of Oliver, so when she heard Katherine's words, she hurriedly walked to their seats.
