Chapter 20
“Don’t open.” Anderson’s tone was horrifyingly cold. “Anderson, open the door and let me see Lincoln, I’ll leave immediately!” Catherine hauled the car door and did not let go of it.
The car at the front moved forward slightly. The driver, Paul, looked at Catherine outside the window who was hauling the car door and then looked at Anderson who was at the back seat with an icy-cold face. He was at a loss what to do.
“Hey, are you blind? Can’t you see the cars at the front are moving forward?” Anderson spoke in a deep and unquestionable tone.
Paul gritted his teeth and drove the car. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
The car moved forward and the huge force of inertia caused Catherine to stumble. She lost her balance and fell onto the ground. Her skin was abraded and her blood stained the edge of her dress. However, she got up as if she did not have any feelings.
She watched Anderson’s car disappear.
“Miss, get in quickly, I’ll take you to the hospital,” the generous driver shouted at Catherine, “You’re really daring as you surprisingly dare to make a fake car accident to request compensation despite knowing that it’s Mr. Clark’s car.”
“Just send me to Hualing Plaza.” Catherine took out a tissue and wiped the blood on her leg.
The cab driver looked at Catherine as if he was looking at a monster, “You’re severely injured. You really don’t need to go to the hospital?”
“No need.” Inside the luxurious car… Paul was apprehensive, “Mr. Clark, I saw that Ms. Johnson was injured just now.”
Anderson looked up and glanced at Paul, “When do you become so nosy? What, you aren’t comfortable with your position as a driver? Do you need me to find someone to let you participate in some charity jobs since you’re so nosy?”
These ordinary words spoken by Anderson in an ice and unkind tone had huge power.
Paul instantly shut his mouth.
“After the little young master’s classes are over in the afternoon, send him to the company.”
Paul did not dare to ponder what Anderson’s arrangement meant. He just nodded and said yes, “Yes.”
Catherine bought medicine at the pharmacy near the plaza. After simply dealing with her wound, she bought a long dress and entered 1408 after tidying up herself properly.
When she arrived there, there were already several people in the office.
“Hello, I’m October. I’m here for the script rewriting.”
“You’re October?” A man wearing glasses stood up with an excited look, “I always think that October is a guy, I don’t expect that it’s surprisingly a beauty!”
“Same goes to me too! There are so few women who draw reasoning comics!” Catherine said shyly while smiling, “I love to be special.”
“October, let me take a picture with you quickly.”
‘I also want! I also want an autograph!”
The atmosphere of the team of script rewriters was quite good. Before Catherine arrived, she worried that she might not be able to adapt to working with so many people. Now, it seemed like her worry was indeed unnecessary.
Because of her leg injury, Catherine stayed in 1408 all day. Even her lunch was also brought up by the food deliverer. She limped down only after the people of the office were almost gone.
“What’s wrong with your leg?”
A puzzled voice sounded behind her. Catherine turned her head and saw that it was the head of this project, Simon.
‘I accidentally fell when I came.”
Simon pursed his lips, “I passed by Abbey Road when I went to work this morning.”
Catherine’s smiles on her face stiffened. She stopped Anderson’s car on Abbey Road this morning, “You’ve seen everything?” Simon nodded, “Let me help you out. The way you fell onto the ground seemed quite damaging. You better go to the hospital.” “No need.” Catherine did not want to trouble him as she was still unfamiliar with him.
Simon shook his head and said with a smile, “Don’t get me wrong. I don’t have any special motive towards you. I’m just afraid that you’ll delay the work progress.”
He already said to this extent so Catherine also felt it was inappropriate to refuse, “I’ll only need your help when there is nothing to support.”
Simon did not make any overstepping action. He held Catherine’s arm only when she did not have something to support her.
When they passed by the Clark Tower, Catherine glanced at it. When she was about to continue limping forward, a car stopped in front of her.
Lincoln and Anderson got out of the car at the same time.
They had not seen each other for more than ten days. When Lincoln saw Catherine again, he was very excited. Losing his usual calmness, he trotted to her, “Mommy.”
When Catherine saw Lincoln again, she was so excited that she forgot that she had injuries on her legs and ran forward. If it was not because that Simon pulled her arm, she would have fallen once again.
Anderson’s darkened eyes gazed at Simon and Catherine. The atmosphere in the surroundings instantaneously became slightly colder.
Paul was so scared that he took a step back. He sighed in his mind that Catherine’s ability in attracting men was too strong.
“Mommy, what’s wrong with you?” Lincoln was sensitive and meticulous. He could immediately realize that Catherine was not right, “Are you injured?”
Catherine glanced at Anderson who was not far away. She lowered her head and embraced Lincoln tightly, “I accidentally fell when I was at work. It’s just a minor injury.”
Lincoln moved out of Catherine’s arms and turned his head to look at Anderson, “Can you call a doctor for Mommy?”
Anderson sneered and looked down at Lincoln, “Call me dad.”
Although they were obviously a father and son, their relationship was so bad as if there was a glacier across the two of them. Watching this on the side, Paul was very anxious. He knew how stubborn this
little young master was in which he was totally not inferior to the young master’s stubbornness. To his astonishment, Lincoln surprisingly spoke.
“Dad, can you call a doctor for Mommy?”
Anderson sneered. He turned his head and ordered Paul, “Call a doctor to go to my office.”
Finished speaking, he strode forward, not paying any attention to the few people behind him.
“Mommy, go up with me to deal with your wound.” As Lincoln had not seen his mommy for a long time, he was really unwilling to separate from her even for a second.
Catherine also felt the same. Although facing Anderson was disgusting, being together with Lincoln was more important. Simon looked around and said, “You deal with your matter first, I’ll go back now.”
“Thank you.”
Simon waved his hand, “No worries.”
Catherine headed to the Clark Tower. Lincoln was determined to hold her hand as a support.
“Mommy is fine.”
No matter how Catherine persuaded, Lincoln refused to obey and just stubbornly held her hand to move forward.
Although it was the off-hours, many people were working overtime in the Clark Group. When they saw Lincoln, they greeted him, “Hello, the little young master.”
“Hello, the little young master.”
Lincoln nodded with a cold face. In a trance, Catherine thought she saw a mini version of Anderson. “Who is the person beside the little young master? Is she the little young master’s biological mother?” “Eh, not Ms. White? I hear that Mr. Clark is going to get married to the daughter of the White family.” “What nonsense are you guys talking about?” Paul chided.
As Paul was Anderson’s usual driver, many employees knew him. Catherine could hear clearly what those few employees said just now. Was Anderson really going to get engaged to Sienna?
Based on Sienna’s temper, she would certainly not be tolerant of Lincoln.
Depressed, Catherine entered Anderson’s office. After the door was opened, she saw that Anderson and a woman were sitting on the sofa while talking and laughing. It seemed that they had talked for a long time.
Seeing Catherine coming in, the smile on Anderson’s face instantly disappeared. He glanced at her coldly.
