Catherine became exhausted while weeping. She lay prone on the table.

Owen poured her a glass of warm water and handed her some pills.

“Take your medicine and have a rest. You push yourself too hard,” Owen said with a sigh, “I’m always there for you, Catherine.” Catherine nodded. After taking the pills, she gradually calmed down.

Raising her head, she looked at Owen. “Owen, what can I do for you today?”

“Nothing actually. I’ve moved to your next door,” said Owen casually.

Catherine frowned. “You should know Anderson Clark more or less. I can’t change your mind, but please be warier of him.” It wouldn’t make any sense if she still insisted on driving Owen away.

Johanna didn’t care about it at all. “I see. Just warn him again to keep his mouth shut.” The agent nodded. Looking hesitant, she said, “Probably he would be in jail for six months or a year. He asked me to give him

more money. He said two hundred thousand isn’t enough for him to cure his leg. He asked for another three hundred thousand.
Otherwise, he threatened that he would tell the truth to Mr. Clark.”
