"Can you really help me?"
Lyndall looked at Katherine in surprise.
"Maybe, maybe it's possible." Katherine tried to hide her emotions.
But Lyndall observed her carefully and had already caught it.
"Katherine, is something on your mind?"
"No."
Katherine said simply, looking at Lyndall firmly, "Just tell me, do you want to see Jack?"
In fact, when she said this, she felt a little panicked.
Even Katherine didn't even figure out why she would blurt out that she could help Lyndall.
She suddenly saw Jack in her mind.
"I am now Lyndall's woman. Since I have decided to spend my life with him, as his woman, I should help him."
Katherine had an idea in her mind.
"Yes!"
Lyndall's eyes were bright, and he nodded without hesitation.
"Good." Katherine replied.
Looking at Katherine who was leaving, Lyndall was puzzled.
Katherine could really help me?
"Boss, do you really believe that she can help you meet Jack?" Willy asked in surprise.
Lyndall recovered and shrugged helplessly, "You and I have been inviting him a dozen times, but nothing has happened. I can only hope that Katherine can do it now."
Willy's expression was a little complicated, it felt a little absurd.
Even the underground king couldn't get him to come, what could Katherine possibly do?
After hesitating, Willy asked, "Boss, why do you want to meet Jack so badly?"
Lyndall smiled meaningfully.
He scratched his hair and said, "Willy, people who want to achieve big things need to have a long-term vision, the short-sightedness will not last long. I will tell you about this someday."
Willy was thoughtful and said, "Can Katherine really get him to come?"
"It doesn't matter if she can or not, her will counts."
Lyndall smiled contentedly, "My woman is not just for show. Katherine wants to help me share my worries, this proves that I was right liking her in the first place."
Katherine left the villa.
Her expression was complicated and her eyes are erratic.
At this time, she felt messy in her heart.
After looking back at the villa, she was more sure about her plans.
Katherine bit her red lips and then left.
At the DT company.
Jack didn't care how many times he turned down Lyndall.
For him, a dozen or so invitations in half a month were just very small episodes.
Lyndall had the patience to ask, and he also had the patience to let Lone Wolf throw the invitation in the trash.
He had many other things to do. DT's acquisition of land and real estate development were very important tasks every day.
Just as he was about to get off work.
Lone Wolf walked in again.
"Mr. Hughes, it is here again."
The voice was full of helplessness.
For nearly half a month, Jack has become accustomed to this tone of Lone Wolf.
Who could make him speak like that, besides Lyndall?
Jack leaned in the chair, pinching his nose, "It's strange today. Sending two invitations in a row?"
Calculating the drive to LD city, this invitation was probably sent not long after Willy arrived in LD city, and he came back right away.
"This time it's not an invitation."
Lone Wolf hesitated and said, "It's a person."
"A person?!"
Jack was surprised for a moment, then smiled and said, "Lyndall thought he would come over in person to get me to agree?"
"She is a woman."
Lone Wolf looked at Jack with complicated eyes.
Although he was not Jack's closest guard, he also knew a few things.
For example... Katherine!
"A woman?" Jack's smile disappeared, he turned faintly angry.
What was he thinking to send a woman?
There was silence for a few seconds.
Lone Wolf finally said, "It's your ex-wife, Katherine."
Katherine took out her mobile phone.
The number was new, so was the phone.
In the address book, there was only one person's number saved.
There was even no contact information for her parents and brother.
She wanted to keep this number forever.
Quickly she pressed on the buttons.
Not long after, the call was connected.
"It's been a while..."
Katherine thought a lot of things in her mind, but in the end she just spit out those simple four words.
However.
Jack on the other side of the phone showed his thoughts in a simple and clear way.
"Get out!"
The line was cut.
Katherine trembled, and put down the phone with a lonely expression.
He was as heartbreaking as always.
But she knew that it was her own fault.
He used to use these words on women that were trying to get close to him.
It was just that she didn't cherish, didn't understand, and allowed him to use these words on herself.
"I can definitely help Lyndall."
Katherine's gaze suddenly became firm. She had been reborn from the ashes and was no longer the spoiled and domineering Katherine that she used to be.
She knew that a woman who wanted to have respect was not to become a man's vassal, but to stand up when a man needed it.
And so.
Katherine sent Jack a text message.
"My boyfriend Lyndall wants to see you. Can you please ignore the past and have dinner together? I will owe you one, please."
The last few words were almost pleading.
She got an answer in just a few seconds.
Katherine took a look, instantly felt desperate.
"You can't afford to owe me, get as far away from me as possible!"
