Chapter 531 Frank's Girlfriend
Katherine saw Frank come in and raised an eyebrow calmly.
Why did he come here?
Although Fiona was momentarily stunned by Frank's looks, she already had someone in her heart, so his charm didn't sway her. She glared at him and asked irritably, "Who are you? You just barged into Katherine's room without knocking? You've got some nerve!"
Frank glanced at Fi"I used to enter her bedroom without knocking too."
Hearing this, Fiona immediately became alert, scrutinizing the intruding man and then looking inquisitively at Katherine. "What?! Are you Katherine's ex-boyfriend?" she asked tactlessly.
Frank smiled ambiguously and didn't deny it.
Fiona took it seriously and put her hands on her hips, questioning, "Katherine, really? While Alex is away, you call your lover for a rendezvous! Do you still want to be with Alex?"
Katherine lazily rubbed her temples and glanced at Fiona. "Ignore him! I don't have an ex-boyfriend, and even if I did, my taste wouldn't be that bad!"
Fiona was stunned and remained puzzled. "Really?"
Frank frowned slightly, a bit displeased. "Katherine, how can you belittle me in front of others? Am I not good-looking?"
Katherine was already used to Frank's narcissism and flamboyance, and she didn't care. "Why aren't you at the company? What are you doing here?" she said to him impatiently.
Frank shrugged and walked to the bedside, looking at the wound on her forehead with concern. "I heard you got hurt, Katherine. How could we stay at the company with peace of mind? We had to come and see if you're okay, so we can feel at ease!"
Katherine said, "I'm fine. If you have nothing to do, go back to the company and get busy. Don't be naughty."
As she said this, Katherine subtly glanced at Teresa's reaction.
From the moment Frank entered, Teresa's eyes had been following him.
The fierceness she had shown in front of Fiona had subsided, and Teresa shyly and cautiously said, "Mr. Perez, you came to see Katherine too? Perfect timing. Katherine is about to have breakfast. You can join us! My mom made her specialty dishes!"
Fiona noticed that Teresa's voice and tone were much gentler than before and found it strange. Observing Teresa's expression, she could tell that Teresa was infatuated with Frank.
Ha! So Teresa likes this type?
Hmph! Not as handsome as Nathan!
Frank glanced at Teresa, still smiling gently, he refused, "No need. I already had breakfast with a friend before coming."
Teresa's eyes showed a hint of disappointment. "If you've already had breakfast, then just sit for a while!" she suggested instead.
Saying this, Teresa eagerly ran over to bring a chair for Frank.
Frank didn't remain standing, lightly said thank you, and naturally sat down. His gaze didn't linger on Teresa, and his smile was merely polite.
His eyes were much more lively and serious when he looked at Katherine. "Katherine, how are you? Does the wound on your head hurt?" he said with deep concern.
Katherine shook her head, and replied, "It doesn't hurt."
Frank asked sternly, "Is there any other injury? Don't hide it from me!"
Katherine said, "Didn't I already say I'm fine! Why did you come alone? Where's Ambrosia?"
Knowing the two of them, it was unlikely he would come alone in this situation.
Frank remarked with a smile, "Ambrosia and the others went to get your favorite pastries from that shop. I don't like waiting in line, so I came first."
The others...Besides Ambrosia, who else?
"Who is Ambrosia with?" Katherine asked.
Teresa brought a glass of water to Frank and offering it. "Mr. Perez, have some water."
"Thank you." Frank gracefully took the glass and answered Katherine's question, "She's with my girlfriend in line!"
The word "girlfriend" was like a needle piercing Teresa's heart. She doubted her ears and looked up at Frank in disbelief.
But Frank didn't look at her, only happily observing Katherine on the bed. "They should be here soon! Katherine, my girlfriend is very nervous about meeting you. Don't embarrass me in front of her!" he warned playfully.
Katherine had seen countless, girlfriends of Frank, and wasn't surprised at all. She was more focused on Teresa's reaction.
She knew that Teresa, with her romantic inclinations, had developed feelings for Frank that she shouldn't have. Now, hearing that Frank had a girlfriend, she must have been heartbroken.
As Katherine expected, Teresa's eyes reddened, and she seemed at a loss.
Fiona, with her low emotional intelligence, asked at this moment, "Hey! Teresa, what's wrong? Are you having a cramp?"
Teresa awkwardly lowered her head, her voice trembling. "Excuse me, I need to go to the restroom."
She ran out.
Seeing this, Katherine was also worried and said to Fiona, "Go after her. She seems unwell. Make sure nothing happens!"
Fiona was reluctant to oblige and pouted, "Katherine, are you trying to get rid of me so you can be alone with this man?"
Katherine frowned in annoyance. She snapped at Fiona, "Stop it! Go check on Teresa, or Alex will hold you accountable if something happens!"
Mentioning Alex made Fiona back down. Even though she didn't care about Teresa, she obediently went after her.
After Fiona left, Katherine seriously narrowed her eyes at Frank. "You did that on purpose, didn't you?"
Frank shrugged innocently. "Katherine, I didn't! I really brought my girlfriend to meet you. You'll see her soon. I guarantee she's prettier than the previous ones!" he boasted shamelessly.
Katherine frowned in displeasure. "I'm not interested in your fleeting girlfriends! I'm asking why you deliberately brought her up in front of Teresa?"
Frank raised a hand swearing his innocence. He claimed,"Katherine, I didn't know she was here. If I had known, I would have come at a different time! But this works too. Let Ms. Harris see my beautiful girlfriend, and she won't have any inappropriate thoughts about me after this! Isn't this the result you wanted?"
Katherine was exasperated with Frank. "I told you to make her naturally lose interest in you, not to hurt her feelings! Do you think what you just did didn't hurt her?" she scolded him.
