Everyone was very surprised to know that it was Samuel’s voice.
Calvin cast him a side glance.
What is this? A certain sense of possessiveness?
“Of course, Mr. Bach. It’s my pleasure.” Kathleen offered her hand to Johann.
Happily, the latter took her hand and shook it.
Then, he went out with his team.
Once again, everyone had their eyes on Samuel and Kathleen.
Why did Samuel object to that?
Calvin started to give out instructions. “Simon, prepare an evening gown for Kathleen. Also, set an appointment with a make-up artist.”
“Yes, sir.” Simon nodded.
Samuel turned to look at Calvin calmly. “Dad, what is this about?”
“Kathleen wants to go to the banquet. I’m helping her with the evening gown.” He continued darkly, “Ever since you and Kate… In short, Kate has her own freedom. She doesn’t need you to control her life.”
Samuel’s face darkened.
Meanwhile, Kathleen looked at Calvin with admiration.
No wonder he’s the father of the bossy director!
Subsequently, Samuel narrowed his eyes at her.
He noticed that she was wearing a beautiful outfit that day. It complimented her skin in a way that showed her fair and unblemished complexion.
Moreover, she had a sweet and innocent smile.
When he arrived, he saw that everyone had their eyes on her.
It made him extremely displeased.
“Kate, let’s go to my office. You need to jot down the translations and print them out before handing them to me,” Calvin said coolly.
“Sure!” She was more than willing to follow him.
I don’t want to see Samuel’s darkened expression. He makes it look like I’ve owed him five million!
Calvin took Kathleen to leave the place.
Samuel, meanwhile, looked at her retreating back with a cold expression in his eyes. He was displeased.
When Kathleen was in Calvin’s office, she typed the translations down. Then, she printed the document out and gave it to him.
After perusing it for a while, the man said, “You’ve done a good job. When did you learn Granatanolan?”
How can we not know that she’s fluent in this?
“Dad, have you forgotten about it? My parents were in the medical field. They needed to translate the foreign materials themselves. When I was young, I always spent time with my father reading journals. Thus, I learned it little by little,” she explained.
He nodded. “If your parents are still alive, it’s possible that you will also be a doctor after being raised in that kind of environment.”
However, she disagreed with his remarks. “I don’t want to become a doctor now.”
When she sat for her university entrance exam, she could choose medical as her university course.
Nevertheless, she gave up on the idea in the end.
Unable to face the trauma of losing her parents, she knew that she would not be able to even hold the scalpel. If she were to force herself, it could bring trouble for the patients.
It was also the reason why she chose to enroll in the film academy.
Nonetheless, she gave up the acting career as well.
Fortunately, she would still have many options on how to live her life even if she were to get a divorce.
Thus, she was not worried at all.
Calvin said, “Why don’t you go and have some rest? We can go to the banquet together after I’ve finished my work.”
Kathleen nodded. “Okay. I’ll take my leave.”
Suddenly, he asked, “Is this your first time in the company?”
Again, she nodded faintly. “Yes.”
“Why don’t you go to the rooftop? It’s a very interesting place.” Calvin started to recommend her places to go.
