All It Takes Is One Night Chapter 31

The news was absolutely destructive, although with the help of her parents Ruby's reputation could still be salvage but with such news her father's construction company is also going through problems . Investors were withdrawing their money and clients where leaving . So, nobody as the time to help her .

Katie stared at the tab for so long unable to fully comprehend what happened, so while she was having a really long shower with James all this was going on .

"So, what do you think" Catherine asks trying to break Katie out of her daze .

"This is so great, you completely exposed her" Katie says with a wide smile, "and the best part is because of this a lot of people are insulting models in general, she must have no friends . I can only imagine what she is going through right now"

"Well, she should know better than attack someone I care about" the silent James finally speaks . He puts some food on Katie's plate and pours a glass of juice for her . "Eat your food; I'll drop you off at work when you are done . "

"I'm leaving now; I have a meeting to attend to . " Catherine says as she finishes her last cup of tea and walks towards the front door . She only takes two steps before she turns around and says, "Katie later today you should stop by at the office and come see me, I want to give you a invitation to my parents anniversary . " With that she turns around to leave not giving Katie time to react .

"uhm… what?" Katie looks towards James in confusion "I'm supposed to go to your parent's anniversary"

"Yes" thinking his answer was too short and fast, two seconds later he adds "just to introduce you to our grandmother while Ruby is down"

Katie can't help but feel uneasy at this idea, one because she doesn't want to seem like a damsel in distress who is waiting for prince charming help . And two she still doesn't know what to do about her parents call .

Despite her worries and problems Katie is still able to keep a picture perfect smile and enjoy a lovely breakfast with her boyfriend .

---- At Ning Corporation HQ

"The general budget for the last sector surpassed our estimated amount by 0 . 76% . . . . " as the general finance manager was giving the report for the meeting, Catherine the head of the meeting seems to be preoccupied by something on her phone .

Catherine who is lazily slouched on a chair at the head of the conference table was intently starring at the CCTV camera of the entrance to the building waiting for Ruby to appear, she was wearing perfectly tailored suit pants and a red silk shirt with orange heels .

She was looking beautifully elegant but scarily unapproachable .

The silent Catherine sits up abruptly which causes every in the room to fall silent . She picks up her phone without paying attention to the strange stares .

"the young miss of the Xie family will be entering the company soon, let her make the nose she wants and pretend to obstruct her, but make sure she gets to conference room 2 on my floor . " Saying that she hangs up, goes back to slouching on the chair .

"Aren't we having a meeting?" her cold voice feels the room and pulls back all the employees from their daze .

Except Kyle, who is starring at her with astonishment and wondering what she is planning, everyone else continues with the meeting .

The meeting proceeds without any more problems until noise and screaming can be heard from outside the door .

"ooo lovely, an entertainment break" Catherine announces with a somewhat scary grin .

'BANG' the door was pushed open and a less than elegant Ruby Xie storms in raging .
