Chapter 246 Of Course I Spoil Her 

In the wake of HN Studio’s turmoil, which had once again ascended the currents of public discourse alongside Davison Group, Kate’s unattended phone and Hendrick’s absence from Capital City a mere week prior led her to speculate he must be engrossed in a significant collaboration or another pressing matter, utterly oblivious to the virtual whirlwind. 

Moreover, Kate sighed lightly, succinctly reciting the circumstances before gravely addressing her brother, “Hendrick, the matter seems not so simple. I suspect someone may be targeting us, so please 

exercise caution.” 

Hendrick paused, a flicker of concern crossing his countenance, as he promptly inquired, “And you, Kate? Are you injured, startled? Should I come to your 

Across the table, the woman’s eyebrow arched slightly at Hendrick’s earnest tone, a playful glimmer dancing in her eyes as she observed him intently. 

Detecting the concern in her brother’s voice, Kate reassured him immediately, “I’m unharmed, Hendrick. Just urging you to be vigilant. Proceed with your collaboration without hindrance.”

Hendrick’s features softened, a gentle chuckle escaping him as he replied, “Understood, Kate. I shall return after concluding the collaboration.” 

Concluding their exchange, Hendrick turned apologetically to the woman opposite him, “My apologies, Ms. Martin, for the delay.” 

A hint of amusement played on her lips as she regarded Hendrick, I hadn’t realised you were such a doting brother.” 

Hendrick smiled helplessly, a touch of fondness in his voice, “What can I say? She’s my only sister; naturally, I must indulge her.” 

Ms. Martin regarded Hendrick thoughtfully, “Your bond with Ms. Lowe is admirable. As for my proposal today, what are your thoughts?” 

Hendrick nodded affirmatively, “Ms. Martin, your proposal is commendable. Lowe Group is keen to collaborate with Alpha Corporation on this venture. Here’s to a prosperous partnership. 

With a genteel gesture, he extended his hand towards her. 

Abigail, meeting his distinctively formed hand and gentle smile, returned a smile of her own, gently clasping his hand as she murmured. “To a prosperous… partnership.” 

Their hands parted after a fleeting touch. Hendrick withdrew gracefully, rising to his feet, “There are still matters at the office requiring attention. Ms. Martin, I bid you farewell.” 

Abigail nodded, smiling warmly. “Safe travels to Ms. Lowe.”

Abigail’s eyes flickered with complex emotions. Taking a deep breath, she quelled the tumult within, retrieving her bag from the nearby chair and departing. 

Meanwhile, Kate had returned to Summer Estate, greeted by Mrs. Miao’s spread of dishes awaiting 

their return from toil. 

Feeling famished, Kate seated Eric at the dining table, dutifully serving him a modest portion of rice. before partaking heartily herself. Nestling into Eric’s embrace, idly caressing his waist, Kate mused. softly, “Ric, who do you suppose is behind all this? They’ve ruined several of my finest garments. It’s intolerable. 

Capturing her restless hand, Eric sighed inwardly, “Whoever it may be, I shall uncover them and ensure justice for you, Kate.” 

Kate sat upright, determination etched on her features. “No, I must be the one to bring them to account!” 

Eric gazed fondly at her resolute countenance, tenderly brushing her lips with his own, his eyes brimming with affection, “Very well, Kate. We shall proceed as you wish.”
