Chapter 67 Visit Catalina in Person
At two o'clock in the morning.
Darnell walked out of Poplar Villa with his suitcase. Outside, a black Bentley was waiting there.
Because Darnell didn't sleep well, his soulful eyes were swollen like fish eyes.
Seeing Bennett, who was calmly reading the newspaper in the back seat of the car, Darnell
immediately had a sad face and complained, "Ben, are you really going to torture me like this?"
"Get into the car."
Bennett didn't even raise his head.
"Ben, I was wrong. I was really wrong!"
"Where did you go wrong?"
Bennett still didn't raise his head.
"I shouldn't have sent Lina to Starham Mountain."
"And?"
Bennett finally raised his head.
"And?"
Darnell thought for a while. Then he honestly raised his hand and continued to say, "I shouldn't have let
Lina go with other men. But I guarantee that there were definitely other girls with her. Ben..."
Bennett coldly ordered with a face like thunder, "Get into the car!"
Darnell held his suitcase and didn't move. He asked, "Where are we going?"
"Starham Mountain."
"Damn it!"
Bennett said nothing.
Darnell really wanted to swear.
In the end, Darnell was pressed into the car by Bennett's men.
Sitting in the car, Bennett was still reading the newspaper as if nothing had happened.
Darnell sat in the corner and still cursed, "You pay more attention to a lover than to friendship.
...
At six o'clock in the morning the next day.
It was not even light out. The team in Starham Mountain had already gotten up and washed up.
Although Catalina injured her arm, she woke up on time and sat up from the quilt.
"Emery, I will be with you today."
"No! You're still injured! Don't get ahead of yourself."
"I'm okay and I'm much better today. When you interview later, it's okay for me to help you."
"Really?"
"Of course, don't worry!"
"Okay!"
Emery folded the quilt and suddenly remembered something. She said, "Well, I answered your phone
at one or two o'clock in the morning."
"What?"
Catalina was stunned.
"The person who called you was very strange. He actually called you in the middle of the night, which
disturbed my dreams!"
Catalina immediately looked for her phone under the pillow.
Emery was still complaining, "He asked you to answer the phone! It was not easy for you to fall asleep,novelbin
so I didn't call you, lest you wake up with pain in your arm."
Catalina only responded perfunctorily.
As for what Emery said, Catalina didn't know at all.
After finding her mobile phone, Catalina quickly checked the call log. When Catalina saw that it was the
call from Bennett, Catalina's mind went blank, and her heart skipped a beat.
Seeing that Catalina's look was not good, Emery asked carefully, "Lina, is it a very important call? Why
don't you call him back now?"
Catalina got back her composure and shook her head. Then she replied, "It's okay, and it's not an
important call."
Catalina thought, "Maybe he called me just to criticize me."
"After all, I took the initiative to ask for a divorce, which might challenge his authority."
Catalina stared at the phone for a while and couldn't help but ask, "Did he say anything on the phone?"
"Nothing. He just let you answer the phone, and I said you fell asleep and then I hung up the phone.
What's more, I think he was very rude, and he actually ordered me. Who is he? But to be honest, his
voice sounded great. Is he your new boyfriend?"
"Of course not."
Catalina quickly denied it.
Catalina thought, "He ordered her."
She couldn't help smiling.
Catalina continued to think, "It would be strange if he didn't do it like this!"
"Look at you! You smiled just now when we talked about him. I haven't seen your smile for many days."
"Really?"
"Yes! Since Bennett... Oops! All right, don't talk about those trivial matters. That person was anxious to
find you. Just call him back quickly! I'm going to wash my face!"
Emery went out holding the basin after speaking.
Catalina looked at the phone and hesitated for a while. Then she finally dialed the number.
"Sorry! The subscriber you dialed can not be connected for the moment, please redial later."
Catalina hung up the phone disappointedly.
They were probably star-crossed!
Catalina finally got cellphone reception, but Bennett couldn't get it.
It was just like their fate. Even if the heartbeat signal sent by Catalina was strong, it was useless
because Bennett always got nothing.
Bennett couldn't and didn't want to get the heartbeat signal.
Catalina put away her mobile phone and threw away those thoughts that she shouldn't have. She got
up to wash up.
After a quick breakfast, Catalina followed Emery out of the door.
Although Catalina dislocated her arm, it was okay because it didn't affect her work too much. In
particular, when Catalina was busy, she might have forgotten about her injury a long time ago if it
weren't for the bandage on her arm.
...
Bennett, Darnell, and other people had been on a plane and a bus for more than ten hours and didn't
sleep much at night before they got out of the car. Darnell threw up for a long time as if he was about to
vomit his bile.
Bennett got out of the car and walked up to Darnell. Bennett handed a bottle of water to Darnell, who
was squatting down on the ground.
Darnell rinsed his mouth and took a breath. Then he said, "Ben, you are such a devil!"
"Thank you."
"I'm not complimenting you, and don't thank me!"
"Since you are in good spirits, just get up! It will take a few hours to get to the mountain."
"Ben! Mr. Shaffer! Please, can I go back? I was wrong! I was really wrong!"
"It's late."
Bennett responded indifferently and strode forward.
Darnell was so angry that he wanted to beat the ground.
Darnell thought, "Catalina! From now on, I will never let you live at ease!"
On this day, Catalina and Emery were busy until very late before returning to the office.
They visited several nearby villagers and found that most of the young people had gone out of the
mountain to work, leaving only the elderly and children at home.
The expedition team had an in-depth analysis of the backwardness of Starham Mountain before.
Because of the terrain, the villagers not only had difficulty communicating with the outside world, but it
was quite difficult to be self-sufficient. Therefore, the leaders proposed an immigration plan to transfer
the villagers to the outside, but the old people were used to living here. Even if there were new houses
set up for them outside, they were reluctant to leave their soil, which finally led to the delay in the
resettlement work until now.
Obviously, after in-depth visits, Emery and Catalina knew the specific situation was completely different
from the rumors.
"I really benefited a lot today!"
Emery sighed, "I feel that I can write a very good manuscript after going back. I can even imagine the
feeling of dispelling the rumors after people outside see our interview manuscript. I'm looking forward to
it!"
Emery was as keen as mustard.
The two walked to the office while chatting.
Before they entered the door, a colleague came over anxiously and said, "Lina, why did you come back
so late? Hurry up, come in. Mr. Wyatt is here! He also brought a man who came to visit you in person."
