Our Billion-Worth Twins by Velvet Antler novel Chapter 677

Chapter 677

When she saw how rudely Maribel was knocking on the door, Quinn questioned sharply, "Who are you looking for?"

"Where's Catelyn Clark?” Maribel tried to look inside. "I work with her. Tell her to come out."

"Catelyn doesn't live here anymore. You have the wrong place!" snapped Quinn before trying to shut the door.

Maribel swiftly held the door to prevent Quinn from shutting it and changed her tone. "Miss, here's the thing -I need to talk to Catelyn. Do you know where she's moved to?"

Quinn scanned the woman before her up and down and noticed that this felt somewhat like a confrontation. If Maribel was friends with Catelyn, she could not possibly be unaware of her new address. If they were enemies...

Quinn's eyes lit up. She was still frustrated that Catelyn had chased her out, so she exchanged numbers with Maribel and provided her with Catelyn's new address. She would be more than happy to participate in anything that could cause trouble for Catelyn.

When Maribel arrived at Green Islands, she was stunned at how insanely expensive the apartments here were.

'Why would Catelyn live here?' she thought as she suspected that Quinn had lied to her.

She went to the security guard's post and explained over and over again, but the security guard refused to let her in. Out of options, she could only try calling Catelyn using the security guard's phone, but she did not pick up.

Maribel knew that if she returned without accomplishing anything, Hunter would be furious at her, so she could only wait before the gate for Catelyn to return.

By the time Catelyn returned home from visiting Stella at the hospital, it had already been four hours.

Maribel, though livid, forced a smile when she saw Catelyn. "Director Clark? You're finally back!"

Catelyn purposely looked at her with a dazed expression and asked, "Director Lionel? Aren’t you busy with closing the deal with Deluxe International? Why are you here?”

Catelyn had only moved recently and not many people knew her new address, so she could not help but wonder how Maribel found her.

Maribel gritted her teeth but maintained a polite smile regardless. "Director Clark, I was wrong before. Miss Kingsley of Deluxe International is requesting to speak to you only. She's even saying that we are unprofessional. When will you have time to pay them a visit?”

"My mom is recovering from surgery, so I'm really busy, " Catelyn said with a troubled expression.

Maribel could only swallow her pride and offer, "It's fine. Just let me know which hospital your mom is staying in, and I'll go look after her for you! Mister Wilson already said that we have to bring you back.

Please forgive me, Director Clark. If this project fails, we might all get fired."

Though Maribel was angry, she had not completely lost her senses. If she managed to convince Catelyn to meet with Windy, she might have a chance at surviving.

"And what if you suddenly feel like taking charge again halfway through my negotiation with them?"

"I won’t! Even if Mister Wilson asks me to, I won't..." Maribel shook her head frantically as she stared pleadingly at Catelyn.

Catelyn despised Maribel’s hypocrisy but knew that she could not exactly ignore the situation as her life depended on the company, so she accepted the apology and agreed to go back to the office later in the afternoon.

When Jolene heard that Maribel only managed to bring Catelyn back to the office after waiting at her place for hours, she was amused. "You should have just ignored her for a few more days! That way, she'll know who's boss..."

Catelyn burst into laughter. "If I ignore her any longer, it'll be Deluxe's turn to come after US."

Jolene could not help but sigh in silent agreement.
