When Cathy received Nick's call she went downstairs anxiously.
"Cathy, where have you been?" Nick asked.
Cathy handed him the document and said without expression on her face, "It has been signed. Let's go."
Then, ignoring the sight around her, she went out and said, "Aaron, book tickets. Let's go back in the afternoon."
Aaron was astonished. "In the afternoon? In such a hurry?"
Cathy kept walking and said in a low voice, "What's wrong? still want to stay here?"
Aaron noticed that she was not in a good mood and immediately nodded, "Oh, I'll book tickets right away."
Nick scanned the documents and was stunned. He quickly caught up and said in surprise, "Cathy, have you seen Mr Franklin?"
Cathy walked forward and said nothing.
Nick's expression changed slightly and he looked at Aaron.
It seemed that something happened between Cathy and Mr Franklin.
Aaron suddenly grabbed one of her shoulders and whispered, "Did he bully you?"
Cathy was stunned and said nothing. Suddenly, Aaron turned around and went back. "I'm going to find him."
Cathy was too surprised. She grabbed his arm and whispered, "What are you doing? Don't you know where we are? Let's find a place to talk about it."
Then they pulled Aaron out of Feng Rui very quickly.
Nick looked at Aaron delusively. He wondered if it was his illusion. He always felt that Aaron knew more than him. It seemed that he had a tacit understanding with Cathy. Even if she did not say anything, he would know what had happened by looking at her face.
In fact, not only Nick had this feeling, so did Cathy. But she knew, obviously it’s not tacit understanding, she had never told him the thing between her and James. Although Nick went to dinner with her last night, he didn’t think that James had calculated her.
But Aaron could be sure that the man bullied her.
It's like... He knew early that James was not a good man.
Was he really too smart so he could guess that?
Cathy was confused as she walked, and she suddenly became more confused.
But before she could think more about it, it was only a few steps out of Feng Rui. They were stopped by a man in black who dressed like a bodyguard.
"Miss Lawson, our young lady wants to see you. Please come with us."
Cathy, "..."
Aaron glanced at the car behind the bodyguard, and his eyes suddenly deepened.
Cathy was in a bad mood. Her mood was worse when she was stopped. She said in a cold voice, "Sorry, I don't know your lady."
Even if she knew, she would not go with them.
What kind of lady was looking for her in Washington? It must be Miss Brook of Brook family, James’s wife.
She thanked her for giving her a hand that day, but at present she really did want to ignore this couple. That kind of business struggle, she was unable to fight them both. Let alone just in James’s place she was exhausted. She couldn’t face one more.
After she said she was leaving, the bodyguard reached out to stop her again, "Miss Lawson."
Aaron frowned and the tall figure came up and pulled her behind. The tone was very light and he said, "Sorry, if your young lady is talking about work, we’ll talk about it another day. Our manager has other things to do. If she is talking about private matters, since our manager doesn't know her, there's nothing can be talked about. If you keep on stopping us, then I can only be impolite." "
Cathy looked at Aaron unexpectedly, and once again there were some different things in her eyes.
Nick also said coldly, "We are not going with you. Do you want to kidnap people in the street?"
