Chapter 242

Katherine cast a glance at Zack's car.

"My car is over there" Zack opened the door for Katherine to get into his car so they could talk.

However, she seemed to prefer another location where they could discuss.

Perplexed, Zack looked at her and asked, "Where are we going?"

"To my house, that is if you don't mind, Mr.Colburn" she answered.

She had a virtual conference in the afternoon, so she did not have time to go anywhere else.

Of course, she did not care what Zack might think about her sudden invitation.

As for Zack, his heart skipped a beat when he heard her question, but he restrained himself from
showing it.

And he was successful because he responded calmly and composedly, "Fine with me"

"It's settled then, '' Katherine declared.

As she finished talking, she closed Zack's car door and walked back to her car.

After twenty minutes of driving, they both arrived in front of the villa with their cars.

As soon as they had stopped, the gate was opened slowly.

Katherine glanced at the rearview mirror to see Zack's reflection.

But just as the gate was opened, she retracted her gaze and drove her car in, parking in the garage.



Zack was aware of his limitations as a guest, so he simply parked his car in front of the gate rather than
driving into the garage as Katherine did.

After she had parked her car in the garage, she went up to the second floor and looked at Zack, who
was still standing at the entrance.

Katherine then realized he had manners and didn't want to come in with his shoes, so she went to the
shoe cabinet and luckily found a new pair of men's slippers.

She then put those down in front of Zack, letting him wear those for the meantime.

While removing his scarf, he overheard Katherine instructing her Al Assistant to boil some water.

"Yes, master” the robot replied, immediately following her master's command.

Zack put on the slippers Katherine had offered and sat down on the sofa in front of her.

Quite amazed by the robot, he curiously asked, "Is this efficient Al Assistant also developed by Future
Technology Group?"

In an instant, the water was now boiled.

Katherine washed her hands and handed Zack a wet towel before answering, "Yes."

Zack then took the wet towel and wiped his hands while watching Katherine brew coffee like an expert.

Businessmen usually discussed their matters either with coffee or wine.

So, as a company president, Zack had tasted a wide range of good coffee.

Moreover, he had been in many high-end coffee shops with expert baristas, and every step they took
required a lot of effort and concentration.



Thus, he could tell Katherine's coffee-making abilities were exceptional.

"When did you learn it? " Zack curiously asked as he couldn't help himself.

At that moment, Katherine was sipping her coffee, but as she heard his question, she looked up at him
and simply said, "In University"

Back when she was in college, she joined a club that specialized in coffee-making due to boredom.

However, she thought that the club was not that good enough, so she went to apply for a class.

Katherine was also surprised that she was interested in doing some extracurricular activity and
pursuing it later, despite the fact that she considered herself to be idle.

‘I didn't know that.What was I doing all those years when we were together?’ Zack pondered, deeply
regretting and feeling blue.

"What do you want to discuss with me?" Katherine then asked, interrupting his thought.

Katherine placed a cup of coffee in front of Zack and asked him directly to the point.

Zack glanced at her and took a sip of the coffee first.

After tasting it, he couldn't help but comment, "Not bad"

"I didn't ask you to come here to comment on the coffee"

Katherine stated sternly, her face devoid of fun.

Seemed to be used to her cold treatment, Zack only pretended that he didn't know the hidden meaning
behind her words and instead stated his intention directly.



"I asked someone to investigate your grandmother's matter.And I found out that Natalie was the one
behind that"

She couldn't deny that she was still stunned by that sudden revelation.

But she ignored it and said in a monotonous voice, "So?"

Her shock was not for Natalie, knowing that she was the mastermind behind all of this, but for the
revelation that Zack, a cold and indifferent person, had helped her investigate this matter.

‘Why would he even do that in the first place?’ she thought, quite intrigued.

"I have a dinner reservation with Nelson for tomorrow night.Are you free by that time?" Zack asked.

Katherine raised her eyebrows, wondering, ‘Does he want me to vent my anger for Natalie to Nelson?’
Zack bombarded her with a lot of questions today.

Katherine paused for a moment before responding, "What if I don't have time?"

"Then, by another day" he replied, not leaving her with other options.

It was because Zack really had asked Nelson out for Katherine.

So, if she wasn't available on the scheduled date, it was natural for him to reschedule it to another day
until they found a time that worked for both of them.
