Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 617

Darren had already left the cottage by the time Catherine got up. Looking at the empty living room, she tilted her head and drank the last sip of milk from her glass before leaving the cottage.

"Catherine, congratulations." As soon as she entered, someone spoke at her.

She was full of confusion, but she still responded politely, "Thank you."

"Heh, what's so smug about it, didn't you just get the interview?" Anna hooked the LV handbag on her wrist and glanced disdainfully at Catherine's white canvas backpack.

"You know, this is Darren's first exclusive interview." Catherine straightened her back and responded in the same tone, then took the lead and went to her seat.

"Let's see how long you can still be proud of yourself!" Anna's gnashing teeth voice came from behind.

Catherine just smiled faintly and casually set her backpack aside.

"Knock, knock, knock." Suddenly someone knocked on her desk.

As soon as she looked up, she met the editor-in-chief's smiling face: "Catherine, come in with me for a moment."

"Okay editor-in-chief." She nodded and hurried after her.

The door to the room closed, she stood straight at the side, her heart was really apprehensive, kept measuring the editor-in-chief's expression.

"Catherine, the market response to this interview was very good, so we plan to do a second issue, and since you were in charge of the first issue, I'll leave all the matters behind to you as well." The editor-in-chief narrowed his eyes into a slit.

"What!?" She couldn't help but exclaim, "Editor-in-chief, I can't do it."

"Catherine, you know what Darren means to our magazine, you can only do this!" The editor-in-chief persuaded bitterly.

Catherine, however, tightly pursed her crimson lips, without any semblance of compromise.

The editor-in-chief pointed at her nose half a day can not say a word, a long time before a long sigh, just ready to speak, was interrupted by the phone.

He smiled fawningly at the other end of the phone, "Mr. Kirkland, why are you calling personally, is there something not satisfactory about the report?"

Catherine looked fixedly at the editor-in-chief with a smile on her face, and her expression became more and more serious.

I don't know what Darren said on the other end of the phone, but the editor-in-chief kept nodding in agreement for a while before hanging up.

He changed his serious look again and spoke to Catherine in a cold voice, "Darren volunteered to do the second interview and specified that you should go."

Catherine abruptly looked up to meet the editor-in-chief's cold eyes and tried to object, but the editor-in-chief took the lead and cut off her retreat: "If you still want to stay at the magazine, go for the second interview immediately!"

The tone of the command did not allow her to question, she frowned unnoticeably, and finally could only agree: "I know."

The editor-in-chief's expression finally softened a bit and said in a gentle tone, "Catherine, our magazine is in your hands."

Somewhat inexplicably annoyed, she nodded and turned outside to get her backpack and camera to leave, only to be far from expecting what happened next.

"Miss Perry is it? Mr. Kirkland is in a meeting, you'll have to wait a moment." Darren's assistant stopped her at the office door with a polite smile on her face.

"That's okay." Catherine gave her a small smile and took a seat in one of the breakout rooms.

This is right across the street from Darren's office, and you can see the furnishings through the window.

Darren the man does not like bright colors, the office is a simple black and white decoration, clean a little too much.

"Miss Perry, please have some water." The assistant said softly.

Catherine hurriedly pulled her eyes back and nodded, "Thank you."

"The meeting should be over soon, Miss Gu, so don't worry."

"It's nothing." Her tone was flat.

Darren has seen more difficult sides than this, so what's the hurry?

The assistant gave her a slight nod and then withdrew to go about her business.

Catherine simply took the opportunity to browse through the questions to be visited this time, so as to avoid the situation of the last time.
