The Best Revenge It Wasn't Even Your Child novel Chapter 672

Gavin wouldn't use the seal for anything malicious, but Catherine worried he wouldn't handle it properly. If he simply tossed it and someone with ill intentions found it, it would be a disaster.

An hour later, the moment Catherine set foot in the company, she noticed the tense atmosphere.

She went straight to Hammer's office, knocking and entering after hearing his permission.

"Director Hammer."

"You certainly have some nerve, strolling in at this hour. You've only been here for a few days, and you've already lost the corporate seal. How do you plan to explain this to the company?"

Hammer's expression was grim.

It wasn't just the partnership with the Lee Group that was stalled; every other contract requiring a stamp was on hold because of the missing seal.

The resulting financial loss was incalculable.

"Gavin was the one who lost the seal. I went to the airport first thing this morning to look for it, but I couldn't recover it."

Catherine explained calmly.

She wasn't about to take the fall for Gavin's mistake.

Hammer gritted his teeth, regretting that he hadn't slapped Gavin silly at the airport yesterday.

"And you don't think you bear any responsibility in this matter at all?"

He was just taking his anger out on her, trying to force the blame onto her shoulders.

Catherine's expression remained perfectly composed. "I don't believe I do. But of course, if you think otherwise, then I am at your disposal."

"You truly are Lance's protégé. Retreating to advance, striking first, always so calculated. Even if I wanted to punish you, I couldn't find a valid excuse."

Hammer pulled a contract from his drawer.

"Fortunately, the day I decided to partner with the Lee family, I had the contract prepared and stamped in advance. Take this to them for signing. This is the only copy. Do not make any mistakes."

Catherine frowned slightly. "Understood."

After letting her review the document, Hammer pulled out a manila envelope, slid the contract inside, sealed it, and handed it to her.

If Hammer's ultimate goal was to fire her, she might dodge the bullet today, but she wouldn't survive tomorrow.
