Chapter 409

Kate and Mai entered Kate's new car that he bought a week ago, though it was rarely used since Kate spent most of her time in the penthouse anyway. 

"Maybe we should just use Taxi," Kate said with a frown. "I don't want to use a car he bought me."

"But you earned this yourself," Mai said. "Just from all the ten top authors you contracted, Empress Publishing has earned a total investment of ten million dollars in just a month from other investors not named Vernon Phoenix Gray. You have done so much for him."

"Only for him to fool me like this," Kate sighed. "I was such an idiot."

"Oh, don't say that, Kate…" Mai sighed. She helped Kate to put on the seatbelt before putting one for herself. She turned on the engine, ready to leave, "You're a brave woman who fights for what you want. You sacrificed many things for that scum, whether he appreciates it or not, then it's his choice in the end."

Kate smiled bitterly.
