Chapter 61
Despite not understanding the connection between describing Sherry’s appearance and helping herself, Violet still provided some description, but her clumsy speech failed to convey a clear picture.
Frustrated and anxious, Violet pinched her thigh.
Then she suddenly remembered that Sherry had a daughter and hurriedly added, “Her daughter should be around three or four years old, and her name is Iris.”
“Iris?”
When she heard her name, Cathy’s heart thumped heavily against an unknown spot.
Sure enough, it was the person she knew!
Sherry actually lived with her grandmother?
This was quite unexpected for Cathy.
“Did she come back alone with the child? No other man around her?” She followed up with another question.
“She’s divorced and left with nothing. Where would she find a man?” Violet sneered. “If she had a man, why would
she fight with our family over the house?”
This response puzzled Cathy even more.
After Sherry’s divorce, her relationship with the boss of Starlight Media spread like wildfire, and even Iris was
verified to be the boss’s child.
Now, she returned to her hometown, but the boss of Starlight Media wasn’t with her.
In Cathy’s eyes, even if she just got divorced, the other party would at least accompany her back home.
“Who asked the bureau chief to take away Chief Lance?” She asked again.
Violet, thinking that Cathy was trying to help her, tried her best to remember: “I only remember that she made a call
to someone named Fredrica. The other party’s uncle seems to be very powerful, probably the bureau chief!”
So, it was Fredrica who intervened?
“Are you sure it was not someone else she contacted?” Cathy asked further.
“Definitely not!” Violet was very certain about this: “She made only one call, and she only contacted that one person. I can recite everything she said!”
Violet then recited the content of the call Sherry made.
This made it clear that the boss of Starlight Media was indeed not involved.

Cathy couldn’t help but show a meaningful smile and say, “This is interesting.”
She couldn’t help but speculate.
Instead of seeking support from the boss of Starlight Media, Sherry turned to Fredrica.
Could it be that she broke up with the boss of Starlight Media?
Or perhaps they had no relationship at all, and everything about the verification and the $200 million growth fund were just means for Sherry to get custody of Iris?
Fredrica was a veteran of Starlight Media, and the boss of Starlight Media had just gotten divorced. If Sherry sought the help of the boss through Fredrica to keep Iris, it was not impossible.
After the divorce, she used all her cunning to retain custody of the child. What was Sherry’s true purpose?
A bad premonition flashed through Cathy’s mind, and her expression changed slightly.
Violet was waiting for Cathy to come up with a solution, but she remained silent for a long time, which made her
anxious.
She kept patting her thigh and calling Cathy’s name: “Cathy, Cathy, you must help your grandmother with this matter. Your grandmother can’t rely on anyone else now, only on you.”
“I know.” Cathy still didn’t give a clear answer and hung up the phone.
Sitting in front of the dressing table, her lips slightly pursed, her beautiful face filled with thoughts
After thinking for a while, she remembered the task Violet asked her to do.
As a big celebrity, she would not lower her status to help Violet deal with Sherry.
However, she knew that someone must be eager to deal with her.
Cathy pursed her red lips and dialed a number: “Make sure to let Jenny know that Sherry has no connection with
the boss of Starlight Media.”
After hanging up the phone, she looked at a message on her mobile phone, her eyebrows slightly furrowing.
After a moment, she stood up, entered the dressing room, and when she came out again, she was stunningly
beautiful.
At the ceremony.
Jan was drinking silently.
His slender fingers casually held the wine glass, swaying from time to time.
He wore a dark shirt, accentuating his sturdy physique and making his fair skin look even whiter. His gaze was cold and indifferent.

At this moment, he furrowed his eyebrows slightly, lost in thought.
Ian was never a talkative person, and recently, he became even more silent.
Robert slouched in a chair, looking like a deflant punk.
His unruly hair stood tall on his head, exuding an air of arrogance that was hard to approach.
He wore a jacket over a T–shirt.
With a tilted head, he drank his wine and looked at lan. “By the way, now that you’re divorced, it’s time to give Cathy a chance.”
Ian turned his head to look at him, seemingly surprised by his words.
Robert finished his drink in one gulp and slammed the glass on the table. “There were indeed some
misunderstandings between you and Cathy back then, but she has been alone abroad all these years, and she’s quite pitiful. Besides, you’ve been married once too, right? It evens things out between you two.”
Ian did not respond and continued to drink in silence, maintaining his original demeanor.
His silence made Robert feel uncomfortable and suffocated.
He ripped open his collar, completely distorting its shape.
“What’s going on?” William walked in, seeing Robert’s unhappy expression, and asked with a faint smile.
He naturally exuded a gentle aura, and as soon as he entered, the cold atmosphere in the private room diminished.
Robert snorted, rolled his eyes, glanced at Ian, and didn’t answer.
Ian’s eyes lit up when he saw William and asked, “Where have you been lately? You disappeared without a trace.”
“Where else could he go? Isn’t he chasing after internet celebrities?” Robert answered for William with a teasing
tone.
His words were ambiguous, but William just smiled and nodded, saying, “I went to Evercrest Town.”
“Evercrest Town?”
Ian’s question was casual, but the name William mentioned suddenly changed his expression.
His hand holding the wine glass tightened unconsciously.
He even sat up straight, straightening his back!
William nodded. “The Thousand Faces Fox lives in Ceres Village in Evercrest Town. I went there specifically to discuss a cooperation with her. By the way, she has agreed to be our intermediary. She asked me to send over the relevant information.”

Normally, when William talked about work related matters, Ian would pay special attention.
However, this time, he seemed absent minded.
His brows furrowed, and the light in his eyes retreated, leaving them dark and brooding.
Clearly, he was lost in his thoughts.
He was so focused that he didn’t even notice a figure standing at the door.
But Robert noticed.
In fact, he recognized the person the moment she appeared.
He also sat up straight, looking seriously at lan. “I heard that Auntie has been urging you to get married and arranging blind dates for you everywhere. Instead of getting along with those unfamiliar women and ending up like you did with Sherry, why not be with someone you have an emotional foundation with?”
“Back then, you loved Cathy so much, holding her in the palm of your hand and pampering her. Which one of us. your brothers, didn’t see that?”
“Ian, you are a devoted person. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have loved only Cathy for so many years, and you wouldn’t have married Sherry but never treated her as a wife. Deep down, you had already reserved the position of a wife for Cathy, right?”
“If that’s the case, then let go of all the hesitation in your heart and treat Cathy well.”
William’s finger twitched slightly.
But that was all.
He lowered his head and drank the wine, appearing completely indifferent to Robert’s attempts to match Ian and Cathy. However, his attitude had changed since he visited Ceres Village.
Especially after knowing that Sherry had completely given up on Ian.
He remained silent and no longer cared whether Ian would accept Cathy.
Listening to Robert bring up the matter again, Ian rubbed his temples with annoyance but still didn’t say a word.
He put down the wine glass and stood up.
Just as he took a few steps, he saw the person standing at the door.
