Chapter 52 - Cathy Vs Clarissa (2)

"Miss Cathy, what happened?" only Mr. Dan dared to approach them and ask Cathy directly.

"Please escort this woman properly because her presence is not expected here at all."

"YOU! How dare you!" the woman swung a hand to slap Cathy but was immediately held back by the girl.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you. I am Benjamin Paxton's assistant. And sure enough, none of the Paxton members have been invited to this place."

Mr. Dan, who couldn't comprehend what was happening, shuddered at the voice of a Catherine. Cathy did say it calmly, not with emotion... but her tone was so cold to the point could freeze the world.

Clarissa's eyes widened at that statement. How could this poor girl be that person's assistant? She felt that the girl was just bluffing. But... those eyes filled with confidence and... 

She felt she was sure she had seen such a sharp and high confidence gaze for some reason. However, she couldn't recall who and when she saw it.

Wait a minute! This is not the right time to searching for her old memories. She had to back off this instant! Reminded Clarissa to herself.

If that girl really were Benjamin's assistant, she would have to back off before her annoying cousin knew she was here.

"Hmph!" Clarissa still didn't want to show her defeat and walked away with her arrogant personality.

"Wait!"

The sharp and firm voice managed to make her steps to halt. Clarissa felt irritated and angry with herself. How could her body obey whatever that lowly girl said?!

"Mr. Dan, please search for her pouch."

Hearing an unusual order from Cathy, Mr. Dan hesitated before finally walking towards the woman who was now standing with a horrifying face.

"Dare you touch my stuff, I'll beat you up!" threatened Clarissa.

"Then we'll just call the police," said Cathy casually.

"For what reason?!"

Cathy shows her smile... her professional yet cunning one. "Just for routine checking. We had an intruder last night. If there's nothing in your bag, you shouldn't mind, right?"

It was really strange. Thought all the 'audiences.'

They felt sure that Cathy said it with a calm and friendly tone, but why did they feel the temperature lowered drastically?

"Mister Dan," Cathy's call made the security man approached the woman once again.

A second later, the woman took off her shoe and threw it at Mister Dan, unprepared against the flying shoe. As soon as Mr. Dan was off guard, Clarissa fled as fast as she could through the crowd of hotel staff and headed out.

Vincent, who had witnessed the incident, immediately ran around to chase Clarissa and made sure the girl did not cause trouble again and left this island for good.

Meanwhile, Cathy and Anna walked over to Mr. Dan, who had just been hit by a shoe on his face.

"Mister Dan, are you okay? Your face is a little bruised." now the way Cathy looked had turned to warm and genuine worry.

"Ah, that's fine. But shouldn't we go after her?"

"No need. I just wanted to confirm something." Cathy was a bit pondered for a moment before adding, "Mister Dan, please find out which room the woman used. Then check the CCTV in front of the woman's room. I want to know where she went or what she was doing. If the camera captures the picture around her last night in the kitchen area, I would like you to search her room."

Mister Dan was stunned hearing the order. "Miss Cathy, are you suspect that she is..."

Cathy nodded her head with a confident expression.

"I understand. I'll do it as you wish."

As soon as the man went to do his job, Cathy immediately turned around and shooed the staff back to work. Only after that, she dashed to check on her sister.

"Anna, are you okay?"

It was then that her tears flowed unstoppably, and she started sobbing while shaking her head.

"No. I'm not okay." she sobbed, wiping her own tears with both hands.

Really. Anna didn't want to cry as she didn't want to be a crybaby and become a burden to her sister. But what happened earlier; that woman scared her. All kinds of insulted or bullying treatment never occurred to her.

Anna's body was still trembling, even as Cathy hugged her and gave her a soft pat on the back.

Anna immediately let go of her hug, afraid that her sister's dress would also get a red stain from her collar.

After making sure her sister's dress wasn't dirty, Anna breathed a sigh of relief.

"Anna?" Cathy wondered why her sister did not want to be comforted.

"I don't want your dress to get red stains."

Cathy chuckled and hugged her sister tighter back.

"You little sweet thing. This red stain is not worth your peace of mind."

Cathy let Anna cry in her arms while whispering comfort words.

Meanwhile, Clarissa, who kept running after exiting the hotel, a luxury car stopped right in front of her. The car window opens, showing the face of the passenger.

"You! What are you doing here?"

Clarissa felt someone behind her as she turned her head to see that presence; it was too late. The man hit her neck and knocked her out.

The person swiftly took Clarissa into the car and let her pouch fall.

After a while, the speeding car disappeared from Vincent's sight.

Vincent took Clarissa's pouch and looked inside. His current expression showed a wave of anger that he had never felt before.

If only nothing had happened earlier in front of the elevator, Clarissa would have put this live insect in one of their meals, and nothing could stop the disaster.

The Star Risen Hotel's good image will be crippled forever if one of the guests found a live insect on their food.

Vincent found a key next to the small bottle containing the insects. He suspected this was the key to the kitchen. Where did the girl get the duplicate access from?

Vincent took a particular cellphone for his elite team and sent a message.

'Make sure Martin and Clarissa get out of Pina!'

Vincent sighed as he was too tired to face many things today. He was the one who welcomed the guests, trying to hide from the Regnz family, then watching Clarissa's movements silently. This had all exhausted him physically and mentally.

Now he had to face the fact that Martin Paxton was also on this island.

"Please, get out of here right away," he begged, realizing that no one could hear his desperate pray.

Vincent walked around the backyard and sat there, waiting for news.

A few minutes later, his cell phone rang, and he breathed a sigh of relief, reading the message he received.

For now, the event will end without a hitch.
