Katherine looked back with a nervous expression and said, "President Ingram, what's going on?"

"You can just put it on the coffee table outside." That was his private lounge, and he didn't like outsiders going in.

"Okay."

Katherine's legs felt weak from nervousness. She walked to the coffee table, opened the thermos, and took out the food inside.

When she saw the dishes in the thermos, she couldn't help but frown. How could Stephanie bring such terrible food to Sebastian? And Sebastian didn't mind at all?

Looking disgusted, she said, "President Ingram, I'm sorry, I didn't know Steph brought you such bad food... How can you even eat this? Why don't I have my housemaid cook you a more luxurious meal for lunch? You manage so many things every day and work so hard, you deserve something better."

Katherine felt like she nailed it with that comment.

How considerate!

If she could take over the task of frequently delivering food to Sebastian, she would be able to get to know him better.

And she came today all dressed up - wearing a high-scale custom-made white dress, limited edition high heels, and her hair freshly done in the latest style.

As for her appearance and figure, Katherine had always been very confident.

If Sebastian could fall for someone like Stephanie, who had no taste and basic looks, there was no reason he wouldn't like her.

Hearing her words, Sebastian sneered, "Does Ms. Klein think that the Ingram family can't afford to hire a housemaid? Do we need your Klein family's help to get a decent meal?"

Katherine panicked for a moment and quickly explained, "That's not what I meant, President Ingram, please don't misunderstand. I just think this shabby meal is so unappetizing, it's not fit for someone like you to eat..."

"If Ms. Klein wasn't born into the Klein family and was just from ordinary rural family, you probably wouldn't have survived until today," Sebastian's tone was full of mockery.

Katherine's face turned pale and she asked, "President Ingram, what do you mean by that?"

"I mean, I don't like you. Leave."

"President Ingram, I really do like

you. Please give me a chance to see you more often. If you don't like the lunch cooked by the housemaid, I can learn to cook... "

Seeing the look of disgust in Sebastian's shining eyes, Katherine stopped talking. She felt as if all her strength had been drained away.

Sebastian mocked, "If I remember correctly, Ms. Klein is the fiancée of Mr. Damon right?"

Katherine's face turned even paler, "I don't like that playboy. It's all arranged by my family."

"Does Ms. Klein know why your Klein family decided to marry you off to the Damon family's playboy, even though you have a sister?"

Katherine looked puzzled and asked, "Why is that?"

"Only children deemed useless to

their families are arranged for marriage to strengthen the

long-term cooperation between the two families... Because that's the

only purpose they have left

"What about Stephanie? She's just an illegitimate child! She doesn't even have the qualifications to help the family with a marriage alliance!"

"She doesn't need an arranged marriage. Marrying me is enough."

When Katherine left the Skyline Corporation building, her face was as pale as a sheet.

It was as if all her pretense had been stripped away, exposing her wounds... His words hit her where it hurt the most.

She didn't even know how she had

managed to leave the building. Her heart was aching unbearably, her pride as a lady from a wealthy family had completely collapsed at that moment.

Stephanie unwillingly took a cab to the entrance of Skyline Corporation building. As soon as she got out of the car, she saw Katherine looking awful. She was immediately surprised.

Did the old perv take advantage of her, or did he just reject her?
