"Both Aubrey and I detest this past, especially Aubrey! Don't make him hate you, so never bring up this matter again!"
It was a commanding tone.
Robert not only didn't raise any suspicion but nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, I won't mention it."
He didn't care much about how much Aubrey disliked discussing it, but he would definitely respect Cathy's wishes and not bring it up.
Seeing his resolute expression, Cathy finally let go of him, turned around, and walked out.
She didn't want Robert to see her embarrassment. It wasn't until she got into the car that she closed her eyes in pain.
Her eyes couldn't hide the extreme blow and despair.
If that person was really Navier...
Then what was she?
All the affection she received from Aubrey was stolen from Navier?
Everything she had been proud of, which came from Aubrey, turned out to be given to her by Navier?
If it were any other woman, Cathy might not have minded as much. She wouldn't have had such a big reaction.
But Navier was different.
The woman she had never looked at directly suddenly became her benefactor, and it turned out that she stole everything she had, which was even more humiliating than slapping her face.
No, it was a hundred times, ten thousand times more humiliating!
She was the noble and outstanding Cathy. How could she bear Navier's charity?
She wanted to immediately tell Aubrey the truth!
She wanted Navier to know that even without all of this, she, Cathy, was still the treasure in Aubrey's hands!
Cathy quickly took out her phone and called Aubrey's number.
But at the moment before pressing the dial button, she suddenly hung up!
In the end, she covered her face in despair.
In the past, she might have had a chance to win.
But now, Navier was so outstanding that it was unbelievable.
Not only was she skilled in car racing, but she also had a close relationship with important figures like Jack Anderson.
Since their divorce, Navier had repeatedly humiliated her, and she had been defeated several times already.
In this situation, she had no confidence in winning against Navier!
Losing to Navier would be equivalent to death!
Cathy's mind was still in chaos, immersed in the humiliation brought by the truth and unsure whether she should reveal the truth to Aubrey.
Suddenly, her phone rang.
On the other end, a female voice said, "Miss Willis, Mr. Spencer has an important matter to discuss with you. Can you come to Creativity?"
"Okay." Cathy's mind was a mess, and she didn't think about why Aubrey would ask her to come to Genesis Group.
She started the car and drove to Genesis Group.
When she arrived at the lobby, she quickly freshened up in the car, applying blush to her pale face and darkening her lipstick.
Seeing herself restored to her original bright appearance, she pushed open the car door and got out.
She headed straight to the top floor.
"Cathy, why are you here?"
In the corridor, Cathy ran into Linda.
Linda looked surprised and asked, "Did Mr. Spencer call you?"
"My eyes are fine, no need for examination!" Cathy, having regained her composure, coldly refused. As long as the issue of her eyes being "not fine" wasn't leaked, she was confident that Diana wouldn't cause trouble.
Upon hearing this, Diana nodded lightly, as if she already believed it. She lifted her foot to leave.
Cathy and Linda were about to breathe a sigh of relief, but then they heard her call out, "Brother, did you hear that? Cathy said her eyes are perfectly fine and have no problems!"
At that moment, Aubrey walked out from behind another door.
Both of them were speechless.
Aubrey walked out with an expressionless face, his eyes lingering on Cathy with mixed emotions. Though he didn't say anything, the intensity of his gaze made her struggle to breathe, almost losing her balance if not for Linda's support.
Linda subtly shook her head, telling her not to be nervous.
"I heard some people spreading rumors that Cathy has eye problems. If this gets out, her fans will start guessing," Linda said with a hidden meaning, clearly warning Aubrey not to let this matter spread.
Aubrey remained silent, and Diana spoke again, "Cathy, don't you love showing your vulnerability in front of your fans? Even a small injury on your finger needs a live stream to seek sympathy. Now that you've lost an eye for the man you love, why hide it?"
"If you make it public, your fans will pity you even more, and they might even pressure my brother to marry you."
"This..." Cathy's mind was filled with hate, but she pretended to look down, unwilling to show too much emotion.
Her fingers were clenched tightly, showing how much she was holding herself back.
"Cathy cherishes her relationship with President Spencer very much. How could she want to let her fans get involved? Her fans are so crazy that they might do something. If they really do something like forcing them to get married, their relationship might change. Don't you think so?"
Linda was quick-witted and quickly came up with something, seamlessly integrating everything perfectly.
Cathy nodded, "Diana, I really just want to keep my relationship with your brother lowkey. Can we resolve our matter privately?"
"Nope." Diana shook her head.
At this moment, Cathy hated Diana to death. Her nails sunk into her palms.
She looked at Aubrey with teary eyes, portraying a pitiful image.
She hoped that Aubrey would help her drive Diana away.
