Semua Bab Reborn to Love and Luxury.: Bab 41 - Bab 50

Dominic showed no leniency, considering the threat to Kathy's reputation. Realizing that any explanation now would fall short, he opted for silence and showed respect instead."I'm here to support you in any way I can. Just let me know what you need," he offered.Meeting his gaze, Kathy, who had once been moved by his eyes, now smiled coldly. "If I were to utilize your connections, wouldn't that imply my involvement as the third party?"After Kathy's departure and the subsequent hit to her reputation, Harvard Group's performance took a nosedive, teetering on the edge of bankruptcy each day. Without Xavier's repeated assurances to Mr. Wade that a replacement for Kathy would be found, this quarter's investment would not have been secured. Xavier himself would have faced bankruptcy and ridicule in the business world.He was reluctant to acknowledge that his years of accomplishments were all thanks to Kathy, nor did he want to concede that he couldn't stand on his own without her support.

Indeed, Kathy's decision to dine at the Zenith restaurant with Dominic and Mr. Nathan was a strategic move aligned with her overarching objective: to refute Carissa's claims to the media and the public. She intended to adopt a passive stance and draw others in to discover the truth. Only by doing so could she distance herself from the tumultuous chain of events and compose an authentic report."Thank you for placing your trust in me. I am open to participating in your interview. I trust that our CEO will also be willing to engage in the interview, correct, Mr. Dominic?" Kathy inquired, tilting her head and fixing Dominic with a gaze brimming with resolute resolve."Alright."Not only did Kathy consent to the interview request, but Dominic also acquiesced, much to everyone's delight!Ross took out his recording pen and proceeded to pose the questions he had prepared one by one."Miss Kathy, do you acknowledge being in a romantic relationship with Mr. Dominic?"Kathy fell silent. Even t

To the astute observer, it was evident that Carissa had instigated the entire situation. However, without Kathy's relentless prodding of her well-educated and level-headed niece, would Carissa have resorted to such actions?As a result, Carissa had now become the subject of mockery throughout the city. To quickly restore her reputation, she would need to confront Kathy directly. Otherwise, this blemish on her record would inevitably be brought up by various individuals in different scenarios."Don't worry, I'm here to support you," Brett reassured confidently. He then offered Carissa a pastry. "You've been under a lot of stress because of the recent events. Remember to take care of yourself."Seeing Brett's enthusiastic agreement and unwavering commitment, Carissa felt reassured.Her uncle, the premier private investigator in the city, pledged his support, ensuring that none of Kathy's hidden truths would remain concealed. Armed with his expertise, Carissa vowed to unearth any breakt

Carissa shook her head, then nodded, leaving Brett puzzled. "Can't you confide in me about anything?" he asked.After crying for a while, Carissa eventually composed herself, wiping away her tears and clearing her nose."Since that incident, my colleagues at work have been making things difficult for me. They talk behind my back and spread rumors about me!" she complained bitterly. Having always been a confident advocate for others since her youth, Carissa now found herself the subject of gossip and schemes. It was no wonder she felt so distressed and on the brink of breaking down.Brett empathized with his niece and handed her some tissues to dry her tears. "Would you like me to step in and set them straight?" he offered.Carissa immediately shook her head. "No, it's not necessary. They're just talking. Uncle, you are so capable; there's no need to get involved. Besides, if you were to confront them and they ended up resigning, wouldn't it be a significant loss for the company?"

Xavier sliced a portion of grilled salmon and savored it slowly while observing Carissa's reaction. "Miss Carissa, you mentioned earlier that you invited me to dinner to acquaint myself with this promising young talent. However, your demeanor seemed to freeze as soon as I uttered some words. Is there something amiss?"Carissa discerned the sarcasm in Xavier's grin. Despite his company teetering on the edge of collapse, Xavier was intent on showcasing himself.Briefly, Carissa contemplated leaving by grabbing her bag. Dining with Xavier seemed to compromise her principles! Nevertheless, recalling Kathy's previous admiration for Xavier, she contained her vexation and took a deep breath. Calmly, she gazed at Xavier and smirked. "Could you elaborate on that?"Shrugging nonchalantly and arching his eyebrows, Xavier believed he was maintaining a gentlemanly demeanor. "There's no particular reason. After all, Kathy was once my colleague. Though she may have wronged me, I cannot reciprocat
