Chapter 738
Quinn, at this moment, was placed as the person in charge in Pentaland.
She could have saved Maribel right away, but she wanted Catelyn's reputation to be ruined beyond repair. The best way to ruin a woman's reputation, after all, was to do it the same way she did to Queenie Mason.
while waiting for Maribel, Quinn received a phone call.
"How are things coming along?" Quinn sounded a lot more powerful than she used to be. She was starting to like the feeling of bossing people around, even.
She finally understood why those who got rich grew arrogant, why not, with all the money and power that could fuel a person's ego?
Maribel's attitude was much better than before as she flatteringly replied, "Not to worry, Miss Weir; I saw it myself that Mister Zimmer added the drug into the teapot. Catelyn won't get away this time."
"Once you get the video, remember to send it to me immediately."
"Regarding the thing that you promised me..."
"If you can ruin Catelyn, I'll give you enough money for cover," replied Quinn haughtily. The more she had, the more unwilling she was to leave Catelyn alone.
Lola was picking on Catelyn because she wanted to take revenge on Catelyn. As for Quinn, it was because she wanted to permanently use Catelyn's identity.
WelL.it was not hers anymore. It was hers—Quinn Weir.
Maribel, upon hearing confirmation from Quinn, hung up the call with a smile, she realized that she did not have much time left and so wanted to make a move to record the video of Catelyn. However, before she could reach the door...
Crash!
A terrifying shriek followed soon after.
Maribel's face turned slightly green as she pushed open the door. The moment she did, she saw a red-faced Catelyn with a shattered wine bottle at hand, the one that was smashed on Mister Zimmer's head seconds ago.
Mister Zimmer fell onto a pool of blood on the ground. His forehead was still oozing with blood.
"Mister Zimmer? Mister Zimmer?!" Maribel hastily went forward to check Mister Zimmer's breathing and was finally relieved when she felt his breath. She pointed at Catelyn and shouted furiously, " Miss Clark, what are you doing? This is Mister Zimmer, the most powerful quality inspection officer in the entire Sapphire city!
Without him, we—"
Catelyn could not bear to stay in this room and listen to whatever Maribel had to say. She thus pushed her aside and sprinted out of the room, albeit staggering as she did.
The drug in her system, while it was not an aphrodisiac, was the kind that would make someone go limp. If she stayed any longer, perhaps Maribel would do something even worse. This time, she would not let this woman get away with what she wanted!
Maribel looked at Mister Zimmer on the ground, and then at Catelyn who ran out.
She remembered what she promised Quinn. Even if she could not do it with Mister Zimmer, she would not let Catelyn go so easily.
