Chapter 167
Catherine‘s POV
My heart was beating fast. I held the car key tightly and said nervously, “I‘ll go then.
Thank you for the car!”
Agentle rain dropped. Therefore, I trotted to the sports car, opened the door, and sat in it.
The interior of the car was exquisite and luxurious. I knew the car must have cost Blake
a lot.
When did he buy the car?
I was wondering, and I couldn‘t stop siniling.
If I became a spendthrift one day, it would be because I was spoiled by Blake.
The car started, and I drove out slowly.
When I drove to the company‘s parking lot, my car immediately attracted a lot of novelbin
attention.
“Hey! What a badass sports car!”
“Don‘t be so surprised. Her boyfriend is King Blake!”
While everyone was discussing, I passed through the lobby. Suddenly, a man hurried towards me.
“Catherine.” He quickly stood in front of me and looked at me pleadingly. “Catherine, can I talk to you fora minute?”
I looked up at him and was surprised. It was Guy.
He looked tired. It seemed that he had let himsell go.
“What‘s the matter?” I disliked him, so I looked cold.
“I heard that the position of deputy director of the Design Department is vacant. I want to go back towork. Can you please put in a few good words for me to King Blake?”
I could not help but sneer, “Mr. Tenny, I think you made a mistake. If you want a job,
you should go to the HR Department. Why did you come to me?”
“Everyone knows that you‘re the one to talk to now. Catherine, I‘m so sorry for what happened. If we canbe colleagues again, I will not make the same mistake again. I will work for the companyconscientiously!” Guy was obviously having a hard time.
I looked coldly into his earnest eyes. “Mr. Tenny, what makes you think I‘ll help you? I won‘t interfere withany of King Blake‘s decisions.”
“Catherine, I was let go because of you. Shouldn‘t you lielp me?” Guy looked like he had suffered greatgrievances, and he wanted me to take the blame.
I bypassed him and walked forward.
“Catherine, have a conscience, OK? Do you know how hard my life has been after I was kicked out?”Guy‘s tone was full of resentment.
I turned back and replied coldly, “I do have a conscience, but not with a self–righteous person like you!”
After I finished speaking, I saw that Guy‘s gaze was filled with resentment, but I simply ignored him andstrode into the elevator.
He was just unwilling to be fired because of his personal affairs. He thought that there was nothing wrongwith his professional ability.
“Catherine, it‘s time to get ready for our early winter launch. What do you think?”
As soon as I arrived at the office, Melinda came to me.
“Melinda, why are you asking me? I am just a rookie. I haven‘t had a chance to attend this kind of launchbefore, and I don‘t have any idea what to do.” I didn‘t dare to show off in front of Melinda. I answeredhumbly.
“Catherine, here‘s the thing. I have an idea. You know, because of King Blake, many Werewolves in thecompany are very upset with you. Of course, if you are now the Lycan Luna, they certainly do not dare todisrespect you. Your present position is at the center of attention. I want you to have a chance. You willbe in charge of the early winter launch this line,” Melinda said earnestly.
“What? Me? Melinda, are you sure?” The task was so difficult, and for a moment, I was overwhelmed.
“Yes, I will do my best to help you. I just want you to prove to others that you are more than capable. Insuch a case, 10 one will dare to treat you with contempt,” Melinda said.
I saw the encouragement and support in Melinda‘s eyes. I pondered for a few seconds and nodded. “OK,Melinda. I will do it. But... what if I blow it? What if I become a joke?”
“With your connections, the early winter launch this time is going to be the most impressive ever,”Melinda smiled.
I was even more surprised and felt that Melinda was thinking too liighly of me.
“Melinda, I don‘t have any connections.” I was confused.
Melinda patted my shoulder gently. “Catherine, you are friends with Leo, right? He is a big star. Dosomething with it. Don‘t let it go to waste. If you can get half of the showbiz stars to the launch this time,you‘ll be almost halfway there. Besides, you are King Blake‘s girlfriend. No one will say no to yourinvitation.”
Melinda might have had a purpose, but she said those words from the perspective of a professionalveteran.
I smiled and said, “I think I can go to Leo for that.”
“He is King Blake‘s younger brother. It‘s a small favor for him. I will get a team ready for you right away,and you will be in charge. Get this launch ready in half a month. With that, our company‘s brandreputation will certainly be more resounding, and you will be credited,” Melinda exclaimed.
Naturally, Melinda wanted to fulfill her job well. If she could boost the company‘s reputation, she couldprove that Blake was right about her.
Melinda‘s ability and long–term vision for the company were way better than Guy‘s. Guy was just aflatterer with zero leadership skills.
“Catherine, I‘ll help you choose the venue and the team. Why don‘t you visit Leo sometime today?”Melinda was getting ready.
“Is he in Sayreville? I heard he has been to Hollywood.”
Melinda took out her phone and said, “Leo arrived at the airport late last night. That‘s the headline thismorning. So, I guess he‘s in Sayreville today. Don‘t you have his number? Call him!”

I admired Melinda. She was so capable. And from the looks of it, she had done more homework thanme. On the contrary, I focused on my design drawings only. It seemed that if I wanted to know moreabout leadership, I needed to learn well from Melinda.
“OK, I‘ll call him now!” I said resolutely. After all, Melinda had already begun to get ready for the launch.As the one who got the credit, I should stop goofing around.
