The three of them had been friends for more than twenty years.
Katherine's words were polite and serious, so Luke didn't annoy or force her.
It was a little helpless to have such a low-key shareholder who didn't like to be in charge like Luke.
Luke took Alice's suitcase from Shaun.
Alice, who was already seated in Luke's car, waved her hands to them from the inside.
"Katherine, I'll leave Shaun to you! I love you!"
As she yelled, she gave Katherine a flying kiss with a playful smile.
Katherine glanced back, returning her smile, and warned her, "Be careful of the paparazzi, Alice."
When she said this, Alice immediately closed the window and pulled back.
Katherine was right.
If the paparazzi caught this, they might need to spend a lot of money to stop it from appearing on the news.
Being a superstar was indeed too troublesome.
They needed to be careful all the time.
Alice was completely taken away by Luke, leaving Shaun in Katherine's hands.
Katherine fastened her seat belt and asked Shaun, "Did Alice arrange a place for you?"
"No” Shaun replied while he shook his head.
Katherine touched her forehead, feeling a headache.
"Do you mind staying in my place for the time being?"
"I don't mind,’’ Shaun quickly answered and sat up straight in the passenger seat.
He was conscious and guarded when it came to her.
His face was serious and cold, but his ears were burning red.
‘’Interesting” Katherine thought to herself.
Katherine smiled at him and drove away from the Blue Water Dining.
It was already past three in the afternoon when they returned to her home.
She arranged the guest room for Shaun and showed him around for a while.
Then she drove out around four pm.
Last month, her company had reviewed five startups companies.
After an initial assessment, most of the shareholders agreed to invest in one company that did online shopping user development.
However, Katherine was more interested in the new RY Company that developed the CrimTrey App.
Katherine rarely showed up in the company and since other shareholders in her company didn't want to invest in the startup company she was interested in, she found a way to invest alone.
So she asked her secretary to get her the contact information of that RY Company's founder.
Katherine was planning to talk to him personally.
The agreed time for their meeting was 4:30 in the afternoon.
When Katherine arrived, she was already five minutes late.
As soon as she entered the coffee shop, she saw aman in a suit seated by the window.
The man was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old and looked a bit better than the photos.
Katherine appreciated good-looking people.
She sometimes felt a little attraction to them, which might be why her heart pounded a little faster today.
Katherine walked over and sat down in front of him, which made the man seem a bit surprised.
"Miss, I'm sorry.I have an appointment today” he immediately said so she would not occupy the available seat.
Katherine smiled and replied, "If you're Mr.Rhy Scott, I believe I should be the one you're meeting with"
Rhy looked at the beautiful and young woman in front of him, and his eyes widened in disbelief.
"Summer?" he asked.
"Yes, it's me.Did I scare you?"
Katherine confirmed with a genuine smile.
Seeing her smile, Rhy felt less nervous.
"I just didn't expect the legendary Katherine to be so young and beautiful," he said honestly.
"I see you were praising me.Thank you,’ Katherine said, raising her eyebrows.
As she spoke, her gaze landed on the proposal on the table.
"Do you mind if I take a look?" she asked.
"Of course, I don't mind.It was specially prepared for you,’ Rhy politely answered.
The investors Rhy had recently seen were all middle-aged men in their forties or fifties.
It was the first time he had seen such a young and beautiful investor, and it made him much more confident than before.
Katherine reached out and took the proposal that he handed over.
"Give me a few minutes.Let me read it” she said.
The truth was Katherine had read the proposal before.She just wanted to look at it again to see if there were any changes and to see if the other party was sincere in their agreement.
