Chapter 48 Fulfilling My Father’s Wish

On the way to the hospital, Jeremy said, “Cathy, I heard you’re planning to resign. Is that true?

“I

Catherine nodded. “I just want to take some time off.”

“That makes sense,” Jeremy said. “Now that you’re pregnant, your priority should be taking care of yourself.”

Catherine gave a small hum in response, though her mind was still on the incident with the madman. “Why did you even run into him? Did you call the police?”

Jeremy shook his head, resting his chin on his hand as he glanced at her with a faint smile. His voice was warm and steady. “I beat him up too, so I guess we’re even now.”

Catherine couldn’t help but glance back at him. He didn’t look like someone who would get into fights.

Seeing that Jeremy wasn’t bothered, Catherine decided not to press the issue and steered the conversation back to work. “Caleb mentioned you ran into a small problem. What’s going on?”

“Oh, that,” Jeremy said, dragging out the words. “It’s nothing serious. I just didn’t understand a section of the proposal and thought it’d be better if you explained it to me.”

Catherine got her notebook from her bag. “Well, I’ve got some free time now. I’ll walk you through it in detail.”

Jeremy’s eyes lingered on her profile. Her jawline seemed sharper than he remembered, and her features seemed more striking.

She was completely absorbed in her work, and he found himself quietly captivated by the sight

of her.

Catherine was exceptional in every way. Otherwise, Jeremy wouldn’t have admired her in secret for decades.

It was just unfortunate that her heart belonged to Harry.

Still, Jeremy took comfort in knowing that Harry had never truly appreciated Catherine’s worth because if he had, Jeremy would never have this chance now.

Catherine leaned forward, carefully analyzing the project’s feasibility and financials. She broke down each goal in detail, explaining them with clarity and precision.

For Jeremy, just listening to her speak was a delight. He found himself too captivated by her voice to fully focus on her words.

When Catherine suddenly glanced up, Jeremy quickly composed himself.

Right on cue, he pointed out a flaw in the alternative proposal. “Your plan is excellent, but you’ve underestimated the complexity of the technology. With the timeline you’ve set, achieving the return rate you’ve mentioned simply isn’t possible in the short term.”

Catherine studied the ROI model on the screen, pausing for a moment before adjusting the risk assessment to reflect the realities of both companies.

Jeremy’s eyes softened with genuine admiration. Leaning closer, he lowered his voice. “Cathy, have you ever thought about quitting your job and working with me?”

Catherine glanced up and smiled. “I forgot to mention that I’ve actually started my own company. I’m just finalizing the paperwork now.”

Jeremy was caught off guard, though not entirely surprised. “So, have you decided what kind of projects you’ll take on?”
