Following the giving of the rewards, the lucky draw segment began.
The smallest prize was an envelope containing three hundred dollars.
Everyone in the stadium was included in the draw lots as one of them was given a ticket with numbers
on it, which were then used to determine the lucky winner of this segment.
As the host announced the lucky winner's number, Sean looked at his own ticket number and
exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, that's my number! I'm the lucky winner! I won three hundred dollars!"
Zack, who was at the side, plainly asked him, "Have you never seen three hundred dollars?"
"You don't understand it.It's a different thing! I instantly have three hundred without exerting any effort!
Aside from that, the beautiful president Miss Wilson herself will be the one who will personally give the
prize to me!"
Sean explained, overjoyed.
But he then asked his friend in confusion, "Hey, what are you doing?"
It was because Zack immediately snatched Sean's ticket in the latter's hand after hearing Katherine's
name.
Sean looked at his friend in disbelief.
Realizing his friend's motive, he asked, "Seriously, Zack?"
"I'll just give you three thousand in exchange"
Zack offered to his friend.
But Sean shockingly asked, with his index finger pointing himself, "Do I look like someone who needs
that three thousand of yours?”
Determined enough, Zack didn't want to give up and offered even more, which his friend would
definitely not decline.
"Then I'll give you ten percent of the profit in the project in Swift City"
‘'That's more than six hundred thousand!’' Sean thought.
It was not a surprise for Zack to give off such a great offer in exchange for what he wanted.
"You know what, my friend.It's okay to sacrifice something in exchange for the one you desire.So, go!
Take that ticket! Otherwise, I'll be mad at you!" Sean said, grinning from ear to ear.
Zack only gave Sean a cold stare and warned, "Say one more word, and you'll regret it"
"Fine! Easy, man!"
Sean surrendered.
He just kept his mouth shut after that.
But deep down, he was much delighted with his six hundred thousand in the future.
The time had come for the winners to be announced, and the host called out the ticket number Zack
was now holding.
Sean immediately nudged his friend with his elbow, signaling him to go up to the stage.
Although he did not say anything, his wink was indeed irritating enough.
Zack twitched the corner of his mouth and stepped over the crowd.
As soon as people saw Zack climb up the stage, their mouths and eyes opened wide in surprise.
Although Katherine rarely be stunned, she has unconsciously been for a moment.
But when she had regained composure, she extended her hand to shake hands with Zack and casually
said, "Congratulations."
"Thank you” Zack only replied.
Even if their handshake had already ended, he could still feel the warmth of her hand in his.
But he just ignored that and simply looked down at her, taking the envelope from her hand.
After that, he directly turned around and returned to the crowd like nothing special had happened.
If it was going to be recalled, this was the most peaceful interaction they had since they had been
divorced.
After the draw lots, everyone was free to do anything.
Since Katherine's presence was no longer needed, she could leave now if she wanted.
Katherine then stepped down from the stage and checked the time.
She had intended to leave in five minutes.
However, when Anthony saw her, he immediately left Luke and approached her, calling out, "Katherine"
Noticing his presence, Katherine smiled and asked him, "How are you?"
"I'm fine, my generous lady boss” Anthony replied with praise.
Aside from the fact that they were both busy at the event, they were only fake couples, so they had no
obligation to constantly check on each other as a real couple would.
Besides, Katherine thought that Anthony probably didn't need her as a fake girlfriend anymore after
that night.
"Stop it.It's just a small company that I manage, after all.You don't have to give me such honor like I
own a popular company” Katherine replied, a bit shy.
Anthony looked at her and was about to speak when his phone rang.
"Sorry, give me a minute.I'll just answer this call?” He excused himself first before answering the call.
Katherine simply nodded in response.
When she turned her head to get a cup of soft drink, she noticed Zack staring at her.
She raised her eyebrows and looked away, completely ignoring his presence at all.
She then raised her cup of soda and took a sip from it.
After a moment, Anthony had already hung up the phone and returned to Katherine with a worried
expression.
"Queenie is outside.She said she wants to talk to you"
Katherine frowned slightly and replied, "We have nothing to talk about."
She said it would take only five minutes, Anthony added.
Katherine pondered for a moment and finally agreed, "Okay, fine.Excuse me for a while then."
But before she could turn her back, Anthony said, "Katherine, I'm sorry about what happened that
night"
She simply smiled and stated, "As you said, this matter has nothing to do with you”
Anthony shook his head and again added, "I know about the vase." She snorted.
"And? Are you trying to convince me to just forgive her?"
"No, it's not that.I just feel somehow guilty that you suffered from that accusation” Anthony answered.
Katherine arched her eyebrow and uttered, "I'm not accepting any wrong accusation, so don't
worry.Now, if you'll excuse me"
As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately turned around and walked away.
On her way out of the venue, Alice suddenly ran over to her and asked, "Are you going home now?"
"Not yet.I'm going to meet Queenie.She's here and she's looking for me” Katherine answered.
