Chapter 303
Brielle, unfazed by the expectation of her pausing at the words thrown at her,
intensified her swing at Catherine's leg. Catherine wobbled, nearly tumbling to
the ground.
Bradley, having never been so publicly disrespected, especially by someone
younger, felt his temperature drop. Catherine’s whimpering call prompted him to
step forward and helped her to
her feet.
“Ms. Brielle, as the Director of Dorsey International, you should be aware that we
are one of your clients. Do you have any idea of the repercussions of offending a
client? If we bring this matter to Mr. Dorsey, I wonder whether your position as
Director will remain secure.”
Brielle couldn't help but smirk. “Be my guest. I doubt you'd be foolish enough to
back out of the deal voluntarily. After all, clawing your way to this opportunity
must've taken considerable effort. Mr. Bradley, instead of lecturing me, perhaps
you should keep a tighter leash on your better hall. Otherwise, the next time she
stirs up trouble, you might just lose this hard-earned opportunity.”
Catherine, incensed by Brielle’s belittiement, was about to retaliate when she
was stopped by Bradley's stern admonition. “That's enough. Why flex your
muscles here?”
Catherine, not wanting to back down but noticing the bruise forming on her leg,
felt aggrieved. “Brielle, just you wait. When I go in to discuss the partnership, I'll
make sure to report you to the senior management of Dorsey International.”
Brielle raised an eyebrow, and her response was the same. “As you wish.”
Shaking with anger but aware of the many eyes on them, Catherine clenched her
teeth, not wanting to cause a scene. “Fine, but don’t come crying to me later!”
Bradley cast Brielle a lingering glance before heading towards the Dorsey Tower.
From another vehicle, several top brass from Kingston Enterprises eyed Brielle
before departing.
Brielle stood alone and sighed. Had she just made enemies with Kingston
Enterprises?
Inside Dorsey Tower, Bradley was escorted directly to the contract signing floor
by a company representative, leaving Catherine to wait outside.
Before entering the meeting room, Bradley didn’t forget to caution her. “Don’t stir
up any more. trouble. With the Haywood family’s fall, everyone's walking on
eggshells. Nobody knows what Max is really thinking. Settle your score with that
girl later; let's secure the contract first.”
Though Catherine was seething, she knew she had to play along for now. During
Bradley’s absence, Catherine ran into Patrick.
Patrick, recognizing her, addressed her politely, “Ms. Catherine.”
Catherine's demeanor instantly turned respectful, and she greeted him, “Patrick, I
really owe you one for this contract.”
Chapter 303
Patrick was caught off guard. Hadn't the president already rejected the
partnership with Kingston Enterprises? Why was Catherine still talking about a
contract?
Patrick frowned, trying to conceal his confusion with a smile.
“What exactly is the nature of the contract between Kingston Enterprises and
Dorsey
International?”
Trying to appear gracious, Catherine explained, “We were blindsided by Dorsey
International's termination notice. I didn’t sleep a wink that night, only to receive a
message last evening urging us to come today with the contract in hand.”

A spark of hope glinted in Catherine’s eyes. If even Max's assistant claimed not
to be close to Brielle, how could Max himself have any significant involvement
with her? She couldn't fathom where Connor had heard such an unreliable
