Chapter 228 The Resort
The thing Catherine asked Grayson to do wasn’t difficult. She asked if Grayson knew anyone suitable to be a celebrity assistant.
“Is it for Audrey?” Grayson asked. Catherine made a disgruntled sound in response to Grayson. Grayson knew Catherine always protected her loved ones. She would protect them in every way.
Audrey was lucky. She wasn’t a bad person. The fact that Catherine was willing to live with her meant that Audrey had been accepted as Catherine’s sister. Naturally, Catherine was willing to protect her, and it was normal for Catherine to arrange a job for her.
“Boss, I used to have a good and hardworking assistant. She got fired by the company because she was a girl. How about I introduce her to Audrey?” Grayson suggested.
“Sure!” Catherine responded to Grayson. She knew Grayson well. Compared to Ronin, Grayson was more mature. He knew exactly what he wanted and had clear goals for the future.
The reason Audrey was so exhausted was because she didn’t have an assistant. She had to handle many things herself, and her company exploited its artists severely. But in the entertainment industry, artists without backgrounds were always treated like this.
Audrey was relatively better off because she had Kim, a considerate manager. And Audrey didn’t complain much. She was currently satisfied, so Catherine didn’t interfere in her affairs unless it involved safety issues.
However, seeing Audrey come back every day exhausted and carrying her own luggage, Catherine decided to arrange for an assistant for her.
“Boss, is there anything else you want me to do?” Grayson asked as Catherine had mentioned more than one thing earlier.
“Not really, just bring me two autographed photos when you have time!” Catherine said. Grayson’s call reminded her of the promise she made to her classmate. Since she had agreed, she had to follow through. It was just a simple task, nothing complicated.
Upon hearing Catherine’s request, Grayson was momentarily stunned. He didn’t expect Catherine to ask him for autographed photos. Even if Catherine wanted him, it wouldn’t be a problem. Perhaps sensing Grayson’s surprise, Catherine added, “It’s for a classmate!”
Grayson was surprised when he learned that Catherine had returned to school. With her level of expertise, she could easily become a university professor. So, it was pretty amusing to him that she decided to return to high school.
He initially thought it was some mission where she had to disguise herself as a high school student for a few days.
But as time went on, Catherine became more and more serious about her studies, to the point where even Ronin joined her school and became her classmate.
Grayson had no choice but to believe that Catherine was genuinely studying as a high school student. It seemed like she was doing quite well in her studies.
“Boss, I can take care of this small issue for you,” Grayson assured her. ” Oh, by the way, are you free tomorrow?
“Yeah, why?” Catherine responded absentmindedly.
“Well, a friend of mine is opening a resort for trial operations tomorrow. I’ve invested a portion of the funds. It has hot springs and golf courses. I think it’s a nice place. How about you bring Ronin and the others to join us?”
Catherine hesitated for a second, thinking that the next day was the weekend. They had won the competition, and she hadn’t rewarded Ronin and Bryan yet. Hanging out with them on the weekend would be a good idea.
She casually agreed. “Sure.”
After saying that, without waiting for Grayson’s response, Catherine hung up the phone. After all, it wasn’t the first day they had known each other, so hanging up without any further conversation wasn’t a problem.
Little did she know how much of a reward her simple response was for Grayson. He was so excited that he couldn’t sleep that night. He immediately informed his partners and raised the standards of the trial operations to ensure that there would be no problems when Catherine went on her vacation.
The next morning, when Catherine was about to leave, she coincidentally ran into Audrey, who had just awakened from a dream and needed to use the bathroom.
“Kathy, isn’t today the weekend? Why are you up so early?”
Catherine looked at Audrey’s ruffled hair and puffy eyes, feeling a bit helpless. “I’m going to a friend’s resort for a vacation. Do you want to come?”
Shaking her head wearily, Audrey said, “No, I have a performance in the afternoon. I wanted to sleep in a bit longer in the morning! Kathy, have a great time! If you need money, I can give you some later!”
Catherine chuckled silently. Did Audrey think she was a child, going out to play and expecting pocket money?
“No need. Have a good rest!”
With that, Catherine turned and opened the door, leaving the house. As she reached the downstairs area, she saw Bryan and Ronin standing in front of a blue Ferrari. This car was clearly Bryan’s style, and what was even more surprising was that there was only one car. Ronin was the first to notice Catherine. He happily waved his hand. “Boss, over here!”
Catherine silently furrowed her brow.” Am I blind or something?” she asked inwardly. She walked straight up to them, scanning left and right, and whispered, “Did you agree to come together?”
Ronin nodded. He had received a message from Catherine yesterday, informing him that they would be going on a trip. He had been excited all night. He immediately contacted Bryan, and after discussing it, they decided to try their best to avoid giving those “bad guys” an opportunity.
They decided to drive one car so that, no matter what, they and Catherine would be in the same vehicle. Seeing the expression on Catherine’s face today, Ronin felt that their decision was excellent.
Ronin approached Catherine with a sycophantic smile and asked, “Boss, how is my arrangement today?”
“Not bad!” Catherine praised him, glancing at him. After being praised, Ronin became more attentive and invited Catherine into the car.
Bryan was driving while Ronin played the role of a helpful servant, serving Catherine attentively throughout the journey. Grayson’s resort was on the outskirts, and driving there would take at least an hour.
“Boss, take a rest. I’ll wake you up when we arrive!”
Ronin’s reminder was unnecessary. Catherine knew that she should go to sleep. Adjusting the seat back and finding the most comfortable position, Catherine slowly closed her eyes.
The entire car became incredibly quiet because of Catherine’s deep sleep. It wasn’t until the car slowly arrived at the location provided by Grayson that Bryan saw Grayson standing there, eagerly awaiting their arrival.
He couldn’t believe it. Who exactly was Catherine? How did she know such top- tier celebrities like Grayson? Why was Grayson so respectful toward her?
