Chapter 205
Katherine was finishing her dinner and was now cutting fruits for dessert when Celine called.The moment she saw the caller ID, she immediately pressed to answer, "What is it, Celine?"
"Good evening, Miss Wilson.I'm sorry to disturb you at this hour.Mr.Maxton’s secretary called me this afternoon.He informed me that he wants to meet with you" Celine said warily on the other line.
Katherine instantly stopped cutting the fruits and walked towards the sink to wash her hands.She got back to her phone again, listening with full attention this time.
"Maxton wants to meet me?"
"Yes.Mr.Maxton said he was willing to negotiate about handing over the Lux International” Celine explained.
It made Katherine chuckle in delight, "Alright, help me set an appointment but not under the name Ms.Summer, okay?"
Katherine felt Celine nodding on the other line, "Noted, Miss Wilson.I'll inform you once the schedule is set."Thank you for your hard work, Celine," Katherine answered, smiling.
"Of course" Celine paused for a moment.
"By the way, Miss Wilson, I have already tidied up the annual report of Lux International and sent it to your email"
Celine was indeed the perfect secretary who had been working for her diligently for many years now.She knew what Katherine wanted to happen or what job had to be done with minimal supervision even before she started working.
Celine knew that Katherine would not refuse anything profitable.
As for the matter with regards to Natalie, Maxton's next move would directly impact the consequences Natalie would be facing.
"Okay, thank you" Katherine replied.
After the call ended, Katherine went to her study room with a bowl of fruit in hand.She turned on her computer and checked her emails.
Katherine's eyebrows were raised throughout reading the email and even after she was done.She frowned.
With the amount of money she offered, Maxton would be offended.
Celine was very efficient because she had already arranged the appointment to meet the next day.It was dinner time and was scheduled at six o'clock in the evening.
The winter season had just ended, but it was still cold in Y City.
Katherine was wearing a white cashmere coat, casual yet not fit enough for the meeting.
As soon as Katherine's car pulled over the entrance of the restaurant, Celine came over the side, "Good evening, Miss Wilson."
Katherine nodded, picking her bag.
"Are they here?"
"They arrived about five minutes ago" Celine answered casually.
It seemed that Maxton was at his wit's end this time.
Katherine smiled smugly.
Unbelievable, the proud Mr.Maxton Jacobs had learned how to please and had even waited for another person.
With a triumphant smile on her face, Katherine said, "Let's goin’
"Yes, Miss Wilson"
Celine led the way.
They were only two minutes earlier from the agreed time when they arrived at the VIP room.
Katherine really admired her sense of timing.
Celine started by introducing Katherine, "Mr.Maxton, Mr.Weston, this is Ms.Summer's special assistant.Miss Wilson is mainly responsible for this matter"
Upon closer look at Katherine, Maxton's expression changed.
However, he was not as arrogant as he seemed to be right now.He subtly expressed his dissatisfaction and disdain.
"Ms.Summer's special assistant? It seems that we underestimated Miss Wilson." Katherine pretended not to notice the hint of sarcasm dripping in his words and just smiled politely.
"Mr.Maxton, you flatter me."
Maxton's expression turned cold.
Weston, who was beside him, smiled and immediately changed the subject, "Ms.Curtis, Miss Wilson, it's getting late.I suppose you're hungry.Why don't we order something to eat first?"
Katherine looked at Maxton coyly.She made her way to her chair and placed her bag behind her.She unceremoniously took the menu, "Thank you"
Weston smiled and glanced at his boss, "Mr.Maxton, what do you want to order?"
Maxton originally thought that Summer would meet him personally and did not expect someone like Katherine Wilson to arrive.
‘What exactly is your real identity, Katherine?’ Maxton was irritated.
Maxton knew that everyone in their circle did not know much about Katherine.
No matter who Katherine was and how powerful she could be, without Zack, who would want to interact with her? Katherine sure had a name for herself.
However, Maxton did not anticipate that Katherine would be Ms. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Summer's right-hand! Maxton's eyes darkened when these thoughts crossed his mind.
"Mr.Maxton, you don't seem to be very happy to see me" Katherine said in an amused tone.
Katherine looked at him, smirking, and did not hesitate to voice out Maxton's obvious aversion to their meeting.
