Chapter 359 Javier pursed his lips together and hopped out of the office. He did not resume his work
right away, instead sitting in front of his computer and taking out his smartphone to type out a text.
[Be more alert tonight. Make sure everything goes smoothly.] He quickly received a reply.
[Consider it done, sir.]
Javier thus clicked out of his messaging app to his camera app, switching it to self mode to look at his
reflection. He rubbed his chin and was pleased with how handsome he looked from this angle.
The sky grew darker, while the clouds were blacker than usual like it was brewing for a storm.
It was 11 p.m. when Catelyn finished her work. She had done verifying all the numbers and cleaned
them up before handing the flash drive back to Winnie.

“Alright, you can leave the office,” said Winnie as she accepted the drive. “Aren’t you leaving? It’s after
eleven,” Catelyn asked, surprised. “I’ll leave shortly. Don’t wait up.” Winnie did not explain herself any
further, her eyes remained glued to her computer screen.
The computer screen was filled with texts and numbers, and the brightness on the screen was reflected
on Winnie’s face.
“You should get more rest. Staying up is bad for your health,” suggested Catelyn thoughtfully.
Winnie shut her eyes gently and drew a curve on the computer with her mouse.
Catelyn was by the exit when Winnie called out to her. “Catelyn.”
She stopped in her tracks and turned. “Yes, Miss Winnie?”
Winnie smiled gently and said, “Get home safely. It’s getting really dark, and it’s not safe for a woman to
go home alone. I’ll have Javier send you home.”
“What? Oh, you don’t have to! I’ll call for an e-hailing service.” Javier was still a teenager, after all. Was
he a responsible driver? Catelyn highly doubted it.
“Don’t underestimate Javier. He used to race cars as a hobby when he was in Ostralia.” Winnie then
dialed Javier’s number in front of Catelyn.
With that, Javier was forced to send Catelyn home eventually.
The pair walked to the car park together, walking past some green belt areas. Barely anyone was around
since it was late at night, and the buildings around were all office buildings.
Their shadows stretched under the dim, yellow street lights.

He wanted to go home and play some video games while he waited for his plan to work, yet he was
forced to send Catelyn home!
Javier began brainstorming how he would have to act later when they arrived.
Catelyn remained a safe distance from Javier when all of a sudden, beams of lights shot from behind
them, along with sounds of motorcycle engines rumbling.
As the motorbikes approached them, sounds of chatter and laughter could be heard.
“Someone’s here, boy.” Catelyn was getting anxious since it was getting late.
“Finally!” Javier muttered to himself under his breath.
“What’d you say?” Catelyn could not hear him clearly. “Nothing.” Javier was frustrated at them internally
for arriving so late but was expressionless on the outside.
He looked at Catelyn from head to toe in disdain, “Say, what exactly did you do to get Cedrick?
