Chapter 369
Last night and all the way till now, Katherine had called me over twenty times, but I just ignored it.
After a bit of thinking, I finally picked up the phone.
"Where are you?" Katherine's voice was a bit raspy.
I said, "Northside, at the apartment."
"I'm coming over."
She hung up. Fifteen minutes later, there was a knock on the door, and a tired-looking Katherine walked in.
She saw the floor covered with gift boxes and looked shocked. "Where did all these come from?"
I pulled her into a hug. "From some people I helped out."
"Who?"
"Just some folks I saved."
"And what’s up with your hand and your hair?"
"Come on, sit down. I'll explain everything."
We sat on the couch, and I told her about last night, leaving out the parts about Abigail and Connie, "So, that’s the gist of it."
Katherine held my hand, looking guilty. "I'm sorry, I had no idea you went through all that."
"But look, I'm fine now, right?" I smiled. "And guess what? I’ve got some good news. Wanna hear it?"
"Is it about the company?"
"Smart cookie!"
I said, "I sorted everything out. The company’s good to go."
"No, I don’t want it to open here," Katherine said, "Don’t tell me you do!"
"Why not?"
"Skyliho Group has invested too much in Greenvale City. If the branch here doesn’t open, the Sevan City branch will be in trouble, and Skyliho Group’s finances will take a hit."
"I get it." I tapped her nose. "Honestly, I feel the same. Why should I help Skyliho Group? I almost died. Do you think Steven would be grateful?"
She cupped my face. "This is the first time I’ve seen you so brave and capable."
"Didn’t you always say I was recklessly bold?"
She laughed. "You thought that was a compliment?"
"What else?"
"Alright, enough joking. I need to ask you something."
After clearing up the misunderstanding, she seemed much better. "You’ve been here for a while. Have you noticed anything weird about Linda?"
"Weird how?"
"Like men’s slippers at her place, men’s shirts, and marks on her neck!"
I said, feeling guilty, "Nope, haven’t noticed a thing!"
"Really?"
"Really!"
"But I still think she’s cheating on Steven. If only I could find proof."
I started sweating and quickly changed the subject, "Let’s talk about that later. By the way, when are you heading back to Sevan City?"
"Do you want me to leave?"
"Of course not, but the longer you stay, the easier it is for people to find out about us. Now that things are settled, you don’t have to worry about my safety."
Katherine said, "You’re right. I’ll leave tomorrow. Visionary Media Group is at a critical stage. Early next month, we’re expecting an investment. If they’re happy, we could secure at least $200 million in funding!"
"That much?" I was shocked. "What’s the total valuation?"
"Around $1.2 billion, giving them about 15% of the shares."
"So, you’re gonna be a billionaire?"
Katherine smiled. "Almost. How can I resist without money?"
Her confident look was so charming. I couldn’t help myself and pressed her onto the sofa.
She moaned, "You’re still misbehaving even though you’re hurt."
"This doesn’t stop me from teasing you." I smiled, moving against her, intoxicated by her sweet scent.
She bit her lip and gently undid her clothes. With no barriers, I could easily kiss her chest.
Unfortunately, my hand was injured. I thought, 'Wait, if my hand doesn’t work, I can still use my mouth.'
I whispered in her ear, and she was so embarrassed, "No way!"
"Then you can’t leave today," I said shamelessly.
She looked at me helplessly. "Should I go wash up?"
I was thrilled.
When she came out wrapped in a towel, I was ecstatic. It had been a long time since I used my mouth to kiss her down there.
Katherine had already climaxed several times, and I was barely holding back.
Honestly, I knew if we had sex now, she wouldn’t mind, but doing it in this state would just feel wrong.
"Spare me." She twisted her body. "Please, stop." She gasped, her lips slightly parted.
I rubbed my numb cheeks, feeling very satisfied, holding her in the bedroom to rest until nightfall when Linda's call woke me up.
Katherine was still asleep. I picked up the phone and went to the living room. "Hello, Ms. Foster!"
Katherine said, "John, where have you been all day? If you really don't want to see me, just say so!"
I felt helpless, not knowing why she was so angry again. "I'll be right over."
After hanging up, I was about to get dressed when I saw Katherine wearing my shirt, coming out of the bedroom, and hugging me from behind. Her long, smooth legs were mesmerizing. "Is it her again?"
"Yeah, I have to go. I'll come back later. You go over later to avoid her noticing."
She kissed my neck, making me itch. "Don't tease me. If you get me too excited, you'll regret it."
"What if I insist?" She walked gracefully in front of me, knelt down, and took me into her mouth.
If I remembered correctly, this should be the first time Katherine has been so proactive in giving me a blow job.
I was so comfortable that I could only gasp, leaning back on the sofa, watching Katherine, feeling indescribably content.
That feeling was extremely pleasant. But Linda was looking for me, so I didn't dare to go too far. "Alright, I'll go over first. We'll talk when I get back."
I chose not to finish, because it would take too long, and I was afraid Linda would get angry again.
Katherine rubbed her sore mouth, looking at me with some resentment. "Don't get too into your role."
I patted her head. "I know!"
Opening Linda's apartment door, I saw her sitting coldly on the sofa, not saying a word.
I said, "Ms. Foster, sorry to keep you waiting."
"You can never come back if you want to," Linda said coldly.
I quickly walked over and sat next to her. She snorted, "Don't touch me, get away."
I knew that when a woman said no, she meant yes.
I said, "Don't be mad, try to understand me. I'm in a difficult position. Do you know that what you did last night ruined all my efforts these past few days?"
Hearing this, Linda squinted her eyes. "John, we're teammates now. You have to find a way to get rid of her."
I said with a stiff face, "You want me to be a murderer?"
She touched her belly. "Since you want me to have the baby, you need to give me and the baby some security. I have shares in Skyliho Group, and I want to get back what's mine. I want to have my own money, do you understand?"
From her words, I could tell she felt very insecure. "Actually, as long as you don't go against her, she won't make things difficult for you."
"Impossible!" Linda's eyes flashed with a cold light. "We can never reconcile."
I thought, 'How deep is this grudge? It's just a man, right? Since she was your student, there's no need to hate her so much.'
"She's going back to Sevan City tomorrow," I said, "In four or five months, your belly will start to show. So, you have at most six months."
Linda said, "In winter, I can wear more to cover my belly. You have to help me and the baby overcome all difficulties within six months."
I thought, 'Six months?'
