“Right, how did you know she went there?” Shaun suddenly asked sharply.
“I sent a WhatsApp message to her. She…”
“You have her WhatsApp?” Shaun narrowed his eyes at Hadley. “And you chatted with her privately?”
Hadley flushed. “As your assistant, I added Ms. Cox’s WhatsApp for your own good. For example, when you’re upset, I can ask her to comfort you.”
“But I’m not comforted by her now.” Shaun snorted coldly. “Did she tell you that she was going t o Hobart?”
“She mentioned it, but I…”
“I know. She wants to tell me about this matter using your mouth.” Shaun scoffed. “She thinks that I’d become anxious if she leaves Canberra. She can dream on.”
Hadley was speechless.
He seriously suspected that President Lyons was thinking too much.
“Book me a plane ticket right now. I’m going to Hobart tonight.” Shaun suddenly ordered.
“You’re going to… chase after Ms. Cox?” Hadley was stunned and taken off guard by the change of heart.
“Of course not. I’m going to buy porcelain. ” Shaun got up and packed up his stuff.
Hadley wanted to cry. It was already so late, yet he had to accompany Shaun to Hobart. Being an assistant was so tiring.
In the evening, Cate stayed in a four-star hotel in Hobart.
Since there were too many people coming from all around the world to attend the fair, many good hotels were booked in advance, so this was the best she could get.
After taking a shower, she was off to bed. She was suddenly woken up by doors slamming in the next room.
“They must be crazy. Why did they bang the door closed?” Cate scolded in her heart.
Less than ten minutes later, there was loud heavy metal music next door.
It was so noisy that she could not sleep. She could not hold back and called the front desk of the hotel t o complain. Five minutes later, the front desk called back helplessly. “I’m sorry. Our staff went up to find the gentleman next door, but he said that his music didn’t exceed 5o decibels, which isn’t
causing a nuisance. Even the police can’t do anything about it.”
“How can there be such a person?” Cate was annoyed. “It’s very loud. It must be more than 50 decibels.”
“We’ve measured it. It’s only 49 decibels.” Cate was speechless.
Damn it. He was making things difficult for her. It must be someone who knew the law well. She thought of that stupid pervert, Shaun Lyons.
“Can you change my room?”
“I’m sorry, we have no other vacant rooms left.”
Cate had a headache. She could only stuff tissues into her ears in a daze.
In the end, she could not sleep well at night and kept having nightmares.
The next day, she got up early and put on her makeup delicately before heading to the trade fair.
After making a turn, she soon found Mr. Kawada. He was a man in his forties, but he looked refined and elegant.
At that moment, Mr. Kawada was studying a large plate with a dragon motif.
The seller said, “This is from the Kangxi period, and was passed down from my ancestors. It’s an absolute treasure. I didn’t sell it even when someone offered 4 million last time.”
“Can I have a closer look?” Cate walked over and asked with a smile.
Mr. Kawana handed the large plate to her and smiled. “Does this lady know how to appraise porcelain?”
“ I know a little.” Cate looked at it and shook her head. “This is fake.”
“Hey, don’t talk nonsense.” The seller glared at her angrily. “You don’t know anything, you silly little girl.”
Cate pointed to the large dragon motif and said, “If it’s a plate from the Kangxi period, it should have a history of at least several hundred years, and the jade should have been silicified long ago. Look, this area is too reflective, and in this spot, the glaze is too uneven. But it’s a good imitation. I offer two thousand.”
The seller’s face was crimson in embarrassment by Cate’s claim.
Mr. Kawada glared at him. “You used a fake to scam me. You think I’m easy to fool because I’m not Chinese?”
“I’m not. Anyway, I think that it’s real.” The seller slunk away with the plate in his arms.
“Thank you, Miss.” Mr. Kawada smiled. “You look a little familiar.”
“Many people say that I look familiar. ” Cate turned and tried to slip away shyly.
“Wait, I remember now. You’re the heir of Yule Corporation. Your last name is… Cox… ” Kawada hurriedly said. “Your father is Joel Yule, right?”
“You’ve got the wrong person. ” Cate waved awkwardly.
“Haha, no I didn’t. I’ve met your father before.” Kawada handed her his business card.
Cate read it and immediately shook his hand. “ Hello, President Kawada. I’m actually a porcelain enthusiast too. I secretly flew over here to see because I didn’t want others to recognize me.”
“I understand. There are always people who want to curry favor in exchange for benefits. It’s too troublesome.” Kawada laughed. “ It’s fate that we could meet. Look at that piece.”
“Sure.”
Cate followed him, and an hour flew by. The two chatted about many things.
When it was lunchtime, Kawada said, “Actually, I’ve always admired Yule Corporation’s development in the logistics area. By the way, since you’re Yule Corporation’s heir, when are you planning to take over the company?”
“It’s not that easy to take over.” Cate smiled bitterly. “Currently, Yule Corporation’s development is very good, and the stock prices also rose, but Yule Corporation’s internal management is complicated. There are many people who covet my position.”
“That’s true.” Kawada’s eyes flashed. “But you can’t give up this position easily. It’s your father’s hard work.”
“My father isn’t in good health and wants me to take care of it, but I still have another company on hand. I don’t have that much energy. I might end up selling my shares. ” Cate blurted. “But I’m afraid my father will disagree, and my grandfather might get angry too. But either way, my last name is Cox, so I don’t care about it that much.”
Kawada gave a deep cough. “That’s true. You’re still so young, and those uncles are old and cunning, so it might be better to sell them. A girl has to marry eventually anyway.”
“That’s right. Sometimes I want to find a boyfriend, but I’m too busy. All I want now is to go dating happily now…”
Just as Cate finished speaking, she suddenly seemed to hear the sound of something shattering from next door.
She froze.
At that moment, Kawada said in a low voice, “I’ll be frank. I’m actually quite interested in logistics. Why don’t you sell the shares to me? You can name a price.”
“Huh?” Cate was shocked and looked around wildly. “That… That won’t do. If my grandfather finds out…”
“I heard that your grandfather returned to Yule Corporation. I guess that he won’t be relinquishing his position for some time.” Kawada said meaningfully, “You weren’t raised by his side either. Who knows if he’ll support that cousin of yours instead in the future.”
