As soon as the door was open, a man reacted quickly. He locked Linda’s neck and pressed a dagger against it, keeping her in control.
Linda paled and couldn’t utter any word to ask for help.
Once Catherine entered the door, she saw the scene. While she stopped mid-step, she sobered up.
“Ms. Collins, we’ve been waiting for you for hours.” The man in the lead stood up from the sofa. “Finally, you are home.”
His tone was polite, but he and his teammates behaved aggressively.
Catherine looked at Linda in a panic. Her heart tightened as she was worried.
Linda's legs weakened, trembling. In fear, she couldn’t utter a beep.
Catherine tried to calm down. Then she noticed five men in her apartment. Studying their outfits and expressions, she tried hard to figure out why they had come to her.
They didn’t look like robbers.
Catherine strode forward and closed the door behind her. “Tell me. Why are you here? Don’t give her a hard time.”
“You are indeed smart, Ms. Collins.” The man in the lead smiled.
One of his teammates tossed an agreement onto the coffee table.
Catherine sat on the sofa, and her gaze met Linda’s panicked eyes. She calmly said to the man holding the dagger, “Let go of her. She’s just a kid.”
The man glanced at his leader and put away the dagger.
Another man said, “Ms. Collins, if you sign the agreement, we’ll never do anything to harm her.”
Catherine picked up the agreement to read it carefully. Party B was the R-Alan Group.
She knew it well, as it was the Marsh Group’s sworn enemy. It was a well-developed company, but all its employees were arrogant, and its decision-makers were willing to take risks. Their only vision was to win against the Marsh Group to verify their value.
However, after they failed, they played dirty tricks secretly.
