After the Fall A Leap into a Stranger's Arms novel Chapter 329

Waldo stared at his phone, the call abruptly cut off. His face clouded over. Catherine was impossible to deal with these days. Ever since Lawrence started backing her, she acted like he barely mattered.

He remembered when Catherine, for all her attitude, was just the Blair family’s daughter. That family used to rely on his favor just to get by. Now, every word out of her mouth seemed sharp, like she was daring him to react.

“See you in court?” he muttered, a bitter laugh escaping. Catherine’s threats basically echoed Nexus Dynamics’ official stance. It had to be Lawrence’s idea.

Was Lawrence really so useless he needed his own wife to shield him? Using Catherine as a pawn just to trip up his Resonance AI project?

Still, Waldo wasn’t the kind of man to lose his cool. The James Group was his empire and he’d built it by keeping a tight grip on every detail.

Yet for some reason, Catherine’s lawsuit made him uneasy. He knew her well. She wasn’t the type to go after things that didn’t belong to her. She wasn’t shameless. If she was coming for him, she must have her reasons.

He pressed the intercom. “Ted, come to my office.”

A moment later, Ted walked in holding a thick stack of papers.

“You wanted to see me, Waldo?”

“What’s that?” Waldo’s tone was cold.

“It’s the draft for the countersuit. Shirley asked me to get it ready,” Ted replied. “We’re focusing on Nexus Dynamics and Catherine for commercial defamation, unfair competition, and for seriously damaging the reputations of The James Group and Shirley.”

“Did you look over Catherine’s complaint?” Waldo asked.
