Alvina hung up the phone, her expression a little dazed. She looked at the mountain of weeds behind her, and then recalled the man's helpless tone just now. She instantly felt like she wasn't doing a good deed, but instead had touched a man's sore spot.

How could the word depressed be enough to describe it?

Catherine had just reached the company's lobby. The company only took up two floors of the building, but this building had a lot of other businesses, so there were still a lot of people there.

Catherine lowered her head and walked towards the elevator. Suddenly, someone called out to her from behind: "Catherine!"

The moment Catherine heard this voice, which was so familiar that she hated it. She stopped and turned around with a cold expression.

Gabriel was wearing plain clothes, which made his identity inconspicuous. He walked over quickly and asked with a smile: "Catherine, you came to the company so early?"

"Did you come looking for me?" Catherine asked coldly.

"There's something I need your help with. I wonder if it would be convenient for you to come to your office to talk about it!" Gabriel still had a smile on his face.

Catherine used to think that there was something wrong with her head, to think that she would feel that his smile was very pretty and sincere, but now, with the same face and smile, she felt that it was extremely hypocritical.

"If you have something to say, say it!" Catherine said coldly.

"There are too many people here to chat with. How about we have a lunch together?" Gabriel originally wanted to call her and ask her out, but he felt that his sincerity was not enough, hence he came personally.

"There's a cafe on the third floor!" After Catherine finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the stairs.

Gabriel quickly followed behind her, and went up together with her.

"Catherine, you've lost some weight recently. Are you in a bad mood? Is there anything you need my help with?" Gabriel was still concerned about her gently.

"Put away your hypocrisy. Gabriel, I have finally seen through you. On the surface, you seem to be very good at being a person, and very good at accumulating connections between people. But in truth, you are the shrewdest one, and your ability to weigh the pros and cons is also first-rate." Catherine unceremoniously mocked him.

"Catherine, you must have misunderstood me, and you must have had some prejudices against me. I am truly sincere towards you." Gabriel hurriedly explained to himself. Catherine sneered and ignored him.

Actually, Catherine also wanted to explain things to him, so she agreed to sit down and chat. Otherwise, she would have turned around long ago and left.

After sitting down in the coffee shop, Gabriel quickly ordered some delicious dishes for Catherine.

Catherine looked at him coldly. Finally, she opened her mouth and asked, "Why are you looking for Mary? Don't you know it's a blow to her that you're looking for her like this?"

"Mary has grown up, so it's time for her to know about some things. Catherine, this is my fault. I didn't consider everything, but you know that I've always been good to Mary since she was young." Gabriel shamelessly said.

"Your kindness is to give her toys, gifts and money, but she doesn't need any of that. What she wants is fatherly love and company. Which one of these things did you give her?" Catherine laughed coldly. Gabriel looked a little embarrassed, and laughed awkwardly: "Yes, on this point, I did not do well enough, but I will take more care of you two, but right now I am encountering some difficulties, so I want Mary to help me out."

Catherine looked at him as if she was watching a joke, "What is it? You are so shameless. You actually dared to ask Mary for help!"

"Catherine, if I can become the mayor, I will be of great help to you and Mary in the future. I will replace more business for you, expand your company, and also help Mary get more connections, making her stronger in the in the entertainment world. That way, everyone will be better off!" Gabriel was truly worthy of his reputation as an eloquent person. Not only did he talk about his gains, he even shared the benefits of Catherine and Catherine.

"Oh, I understand, you have taken a fancy to the mayor's position, and you don't have the ability to climb up there, so you are counting on Leo William to help you right?" Catherine was also a shrewd woman, she would also pay attention to matters of politics. Thus, she immediately guessed his motive.

"Since you know about it, then can you ask Leo William to help me out? I will be grateful to him!" Only now did Gabriel reveal his identity as a political fanatic.

"No way!" Catherine replied right away without even thinking, "Gabriel, do you feel embarrassed? When you were climbing upwards, you relied on your wife's support. Now, why didn't your wife's parents help you? But now that you think of us and want to borrow our light to illuminate your future, do you really think that your life has gone so smoothly?"

"Catherine, how can you say that about me? Initially, I was also forced into a corner. She has already secretly given birth to my daughter, so I was forced to marry her." Gabriel was so angry that he could barely hold back his anger.

"I also gave birth to a daughter for you, so I didn't force you. That's why you gave up on us, right?" Catherine only thought that his way of thinking was too laughable and too selfish.

"Back then, I clearly told you to take the child away. It was you who insisted on having the child, so I was in a difficult position!" When it came to the matter of the past, Gabriel was still blaming Catherine. He was blaming her for not having given up the baby back then, so her life wouldn't have been ruined like this.

"If you want to bring it up, then let's not talk about it!" Catherine got up and prepared to leave.

"Catherine, just treat it as me begging you, help me out this once, with just one word from Leo William, I can sit on that seat, and, I have long seen the situation clearly, the prestige of the Old President has greatly decreased, and Joseph is the future master. I need to stand in the right group. Otherwise, I will be pushed down very quickly." Gabriel was also getting anxious, so he could even easily say the word begging.

"Gabriel, you deserve it!" Catherine coldly scolded him: "I won't let you get too proud of yourself. Maybe your future ends here!"

"Catherine!" Gabriel did not expect that when he begged her, she would actually scold and curse him in such a sarcastic manner. He could not help but become a little angry.

"What is it? Vice Mayor, are you still going to threaten me?" Catherine smiled.

"Why did you become so cold-blooded and heartless? It's good or bad that we fell in love, and there's even a daughter. What's wrong with you helping me this once?" Gabriel was

also extremely anxious, he was fighting for every second he could to get this position, but now, it seemed that it was useless even if he was anxious.

"Oh, I seem to have forgotten that your wife's family supports the Old President. I wonder how they will help tyou if you let them know about this." Catherine's methods of threatening others were not inferior in any way.

"Catherine, you ..." Gabriel's face turned pale white, if his wife knew that he was secretly defecting to Joseph's side, this marriage would come to an end.

"Are you afraid? I just don't want to break up your family, if not, you all can forget about surviving until now. Gabriel, stop messing with me, I'm not afraid of anything!" After Catherine finished speaking, she flung her long hair and left with big strides.

Not only was Gabriel rejected, he was even threatened and humiliated for a while. He became angry at once.

"Catherine, are you really not going to think about it for your daughter?" Although Gabriel was angry, he could not do anything about it. As expected, he did not have the ability to ruthlessly accomplish great things.

Gabriel's face is full of frustration. When Gabriel returned home, he found Amanda sitting on the sofa, father and daughter meeting each other. They both felt a little awkward, especially the embarrassed Gabriel.

Amanda suddenly took out her phone, took out the photo and threw it on the table: "Did you go to meet her?" Gabriel's body froze, he quickly walked over and picked up the phone and looked at it, his entire body was cold. "Amanda, you actually sent someone to follow me?" Gabriel was angered to the point that his face turned black.

"If I don't get someone to follow you, how would I know that you went out with her?" Amanda stood up, her tone suddenly becoming sharp, she was obviously angry.

"I'm your father!"

"You are also Mary Ann's father!"

Gabriel was so scared that his whole body froze, he quickly whispered: "You want to make your mother know it?"

Amanda's eyes were completely red, but she did not want her mother to know. Her mother's health was not so well recently, and that she often had to go to the hospital to see a doctor. Of course Amanda did not dare let her be hurt, but she could not take this lying down.

"I went to look for Mary Ann, she doesn't even want to recognize you, you better not meet the mother and daughter in the future, so as to avoid being looked down by others!" Amanda was also filled with anger she did not expect that things would not turn out as she had imagined, and that others would simply look down upon them.

Heh, as expected of someone who has climbed a high branch, they was really arrogant now.
