Chapter 862 The Client
Rylan stood up. As he watched Catherine walk away, he smiled. He didn't mind being publicly embarrassed by Catherine. The more she did that, the more it showed she was anxious and not calm inside. Despite her disgust, he could still reach the lab. After all, he was the lab's major sponsor now.
Catherine had just returned to the lab when she heard that Ultan had arrived. She hadn't planned to go out, but Marshall saw her in the office and called her out.
As they walked into the lobby of the lab building, Catherine saw Rylan standing next to Ultan. The moment Rylan saw Catherine, his eyes lit up.
However, Catherine's face clearly displayed disgust. Obviously, she was getting tired of Rylan's persistent pursuit.
"Mr. Melton, it's rare for you to take the time to visit. How about saying a few words?" Ultan warmly invited Rylan. His attitude toward Rylan had changed quite a bit now. The failure of the lab certification had made him less arrogant. If the sponsor withdrew at this moment, he couldn't guarantee to find a more suitable or powerful sponsor.
Rylan humbly smiled, nodded, and said, "Mr. Farrell, since you are so gracious, I'll say a few words. What I want to say is simple. The road to success in experiments is always paved with failures. I know the recent setbacks have been discouraging for all the researchers, but these are inevitable challenges on the path to success. I hope everyone won't be disheartened and will persevere. My company and I will continue to support and witness your efforts. Thank you all.
As Rylan finished speaking, applause resounded. It seemed that everyone had a favorable impression of Rylan's speech. But then again, it was not easy to find a deep-pocketed sponsor who didn't care about the results.
Ultan noticed Rylan's concern for Catherine and took the initiative to suggest that Catherine accompany Rylan on a tour of the laboratory.
Showing respect to Ultan, Catherine didn't refuse the proposal. She led Rylan and introduced the laboratory coldly.
"That's the general situation. If there's anything else you want to know, just ask," Catherine said.
Rylan was not interested in the laboratory equipment or detailed usage of the donated funds. He was concerned about Catherine.
He asked, "Catherine, I heard something happened to Ronin. Is it serious? Do you need my help? Although I just arrived in Loxton, allocating some manpower is not difficult."
"Thanks, but you don't need to mention him to me again," Catherine replied and coldly rejected Rylan's offer.
Seeing Catherine in a bad mood, Rylan couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Did Ronin make you angry?"
Catherine remained silent for a moment. This increased Rylan's certainty, and he cautiously continued, "I heard Ronin betrayed you, but when I heard the news, I couldn't be sure. Is it true?"
"Have you said enough?" Catherine looked up at him with anger in her eyes.
"I..." Rylan muttered.
Before Rylan could continue, Catherine interrupted him directly. She said, " The lab tour is over. If you have any other needs, find Professor Hartley. I have to go finish my experiment report! "With that, Catherine left, leaving Rylan somewhat caught off guard. He watched her departure helplessly.
Meanwhile, Audrey arrived at the destination given by Kim. After asking around, she finally located Kim.
Kim was busy discussing details with a photographer, completely engrossed. "Kim," Audrey called out.
Hearing someone call his name, Kim impatiently said, "Wait on the side. I'll find you in a bit."
Audrey chuckled. "Since you're so busy, I won't disturb you for now."
Kim paused for a moment, and then he recognized the familiar voice. He turned around. Upon seeing Audrey, he immediately abandoned the photographer and rushed toward her. " You brat, you actually come back. I said if you dare show up, I'll skin you alive!"
"Should I leave then?" Audrey raised an eyebrow and looked at him.
Kim slapped her shoulder. "Can't you hear I miss you too much?"
"Miss me to the point of asking me to work for you?" Audrey teased.
"It's an emergency. I need your help," Kim replied.
Audrey exposed Kim's ulterior motives, but since they were close, Kim didn't hide it. He said, "Now that you're here, hurry up and change. After shooting this ad, it has to be approved by the client. If we secure this deal, I'll be set for the year."

Just as Audrey assured him, Kim pushed open the door to the meeting room.
However, upon seeing the person sitting inside, Audrey was instantly stunned.
She quickly renounced her assurance, and her face darkened. "How could it be
him?"
Kim noticed Audrey's unusual reaction and quickly tugged at her sleeve, whispering, "Be careful. That's our bread and butter, you know?"
Audrey couldn't be unaware. She just couldn't accept that the bread and butter was Brian. Looking at his smug face, she felt the urge to explode. Showing respect to Kim, Audrey reluctantly stepped into the meeting room.
Kim handed the ad samples to Brian with a fawning smile, and the secretary on
the side promptly took them. "Mr. White, please take a look." Brian stared at Audrey, giving the impression that he was assessing the endorser. He said, "Not bad. The shots are good. Just a few minor issues that might need some adjustments..."
Audrey had been holding back her anger, but hearing Brian deliberately nitpick,
she erupted. Smack! A loud sound echoed as Audrey slammed her palm on the table. She glared angrily at Brian. "Have you had enough?"
The sudden outburst stunned everyone in the room. Kim was so shocked that he
stared blankly at the scene.
