Catherine’s POV
As I walked over, I heard a lot of such discussions, and I was even more upset.
I never thought this kind of thing would happen to me.
Back in my seat, I clicked on the website to find the contact information of the seller. However, the dress wasn’t available anymore.
I was about to snap. I thought whoever was behind this was making a fool of me. After I found out about this, they wanted to erase everything!
I just gained a bit of popularity in the fashion industry. However, it was all gone in the blink of an eye because of this Lorelei incident.
All the contact information was gone. Therefore, I decided to go to the surveillance room, hoping that I could find something there. If someone stole my draft, they must have done it in this office. I had to go and find out who it was.
When I came to the surveillance room, I found that the surveillance cameras weren’t functioning these days. Only one of them was still working, but it was not aimed at my desk.
I was desperate. I realized that the person who wanted to set me up had made full preparations.
What should I do? Did I really have to ask for Blake’s help?
While I was in a pickle, I suddenly received a call.
It was Jessica.
“Hi, Miss Hall. What can I do for you?” I asked.
Jessica asked bluntly, “Catherine, did someone frame you? You’re framed hard, aren’t you?”
I was stunned. “You know about it as well? I guess I’m fucked up this time.”
“What happened? Is that dress really your original design? Or did you copy someone else’s work?” Jessica was curious.
“Of course, it’s my original design. I will never steal from others. I have no idea who steals my design. I’m still working on it…” I said helplessly.
“Catherine, my boss wants to talk to you!” Just as Jessica finished speaking, a man’s voice came from the phone.
“Catherine, do you need help?” Leo asked.
I was stunned. Then I said, “Can you help me?”
“Sure. I think you are in big trouble. You must have been framed.” It sounded like Leo believed firmly that I was framed. I felt grateful for his trust.
“Let’s meet and talk.”
Leo wanted to see me now.
I also wanted to get out of the office now. I didn’t want to be crucified by those people’s eyes, and I didn’t want to hear their whispers.
Anyway, I had a clear conscience. It was indeed my original design.
I took my purse and left the office after I informed Melinda.
I went downstairs and drove away. Shortly after, Leo called me.
“Why don’t you come down to my office building, and I’ll buy you a cup of coffee?”
Though Leo was also a member of the Chavez Group, he didn’t work there. He had his own entertainment company.
“OK. I’ll be there in a minute. Have you come downstairs yet?” I asked gently.
“No rush. Drive slowly!” Leo said with concern.
As I listened to him, I felt less upset.
When I reached the place, I parked the car and walked quickly toward the lobby.
As soon as I reached the entrance of the lobby, Leo walked out. Under the sunlight, he was tall and handsome, and his casual clothes made him look like a neighbor, instead of a boss.
“Wait. What happened to your face?” When I walked over, Leo suddenly pointed to my face and asked.
Actually, it wasn’t that painful anymore. But I thought Lorelei must have used all her strength to slap me. After all, I couldn’t feel half my face.
“I’m fine…” I saw him take a step forward. He lowered his head and looked at my face carefully.
Feeling a little embarrassed, I immediately dodged to the side and covered my face. “I’m fine, really. Stop looking!”
“Did someone slap you?” Leo was angry. “Who did this to you?”
I felt even more uncomfortable and had to say, “Even if someone slapped me, I deserved it. It was my fault.”
“No one is allowed to hit anyone no matter what. Tell me! Who was it?” Leo’s face was utterly sullen.
I smiled and said, “Thanks for your concern. I’m fine already. Let’s go. I really need your help with something!”
After I finished speaking, I walked directly to the Cafe next door.
When we arrived at the Cafe, Leo sat lazily on a chair and stared at me with his beautiful eyes. “Tell me, what do you want me to help you with?”
I sighed and then took out the photos Lorelei gave me. “I need your connections to find the seller. I want to know who put the dress online to sell.”
Leo took the photos over and glanced at them. “No problem. I can get someone to find it out for you soon.”
“As long as I find the seller, I can find the person who framed me. If I find out who it is, I’ll hunt her down.” I held the glass of iced americano and took a sip. I was still very depressed.
“Of course. I’ll do the same if someone framed me.” Leo was very supportive.
I looked out the window. The sun was shining brightly, but I was gloomy.
“By the way, do the two kids miss me?” Leo suddenly asked with a smile.
“You are nice to them, so, of course, they miss you. Especially Noah. He often asks me when you will come over and race him.” I thought of how badly Leo lost last time, and I still could not help but grin.
Leo covered half of his face and said, “Alright, alright, just drop it. I’ve been embarrassed enough.”
“OK. I won’t bring it up again. Leo, I was surprised that you offered to help me this time. I take back everything I said about you. I think you are really a nice person.” I did things based on conscience.
“Do you know why I care so much about you? It’s because I lost to Noah in that race. Since I lost to him, I would stick to my promise.”
I smiled and said, “Well, you are a good uncle. I will tell the children about it.”
“By the way, Catherine, I want to ask you something. I don’t get it. You have Noah and Hedwig. You don’t have to work because of Blake. Why do you still want to work?” asked Leo curiously.
I smiled. “No matter how much money I have, I’m not the one who earns it. I’m not at ease. I’m a very insecure person, and I hate being indebted to others. So, I’ll have to find a way to repay you for what you did for me today.”
“Then buy me a gift. I have everything, but if you buy something for me, I can keep it. Someday I will count the things you buy for me, and I will know how many times I have helped you,” said Leo with a smile.
I nodded and said, “OK. It’s settled. Help me find the person. I’ve got to get back to the office to deal with something now.”
