Chapter 104
Since Heriberto looked down on her so much, she didn’t have to lower herself to chase after him.
Otherwise, how would outsiders see this Ms. Powell?
“Turn around, go back to the hotel,” she turned off the live stream on her phone and ordered the driver coldly.
The driver also heard what Heriberto had just said on the live broadcast, so he glanced at Katrina through the rearview mirror, immediately replied “yes“, and then drove the car to the front to make a U–turn.
The car had just turned around to head back to the hotel when Katrina’s phone rang.
It was Megan who called.
Megan naturally watched Heriberto’s live interview.
After hearing what Heriberto said, she was both angry and anxious, afraid that Katrina had also seen the live broadcast, so she immediately called her to comfort her.
Katrina answered the phone, sounding just like before, and said softly, “Madam Hale.”
“Madam Hale.”
“Katrina, did you see Heriberto’s interview?” Megan asked cautiously.
“Saw it.”

Katrina didn’t need to hide, after all. Heriberto’s attitude was about to go trending topic, being brought up and talked about repeatedly by
everyone.
“Katrina, Heriberto was just blaming me, blaming me for making the decision to divorce him and Iris without his consent. The things he said were just to vent his anger at me, not his true feelings. Don’t take it to heart.”
“In my heart, you are a hundred times, a thousand times stronger than Iris, and I’m sure Heriberto thinks the same way, he just said that in the interview to go against me on purpose.”
Megan wanted to make her story more believable, so she said, “You know, I left him with his grandmother when he was little, and he has always resented me.”
“Madam Hale, don’t worry, I didn’t pay attention to what Heriberto said either.”
Katrina smiled and said, “Besides, Heriberto is sincere, which is a good thing. If he were a fickle man who falls in love with every woman he meets, then he wouldn’t be worth my trust.”
“Yes, yes, yes,” Megan breathed a sigh of relief, “I didn’t see wrong, Katrina, you are truly the most sensible and considerate girl I have ever met. Heriberto is lucky to have you, it’s his good fortune from past lives.”
Katrina smiled and chatted with Megan for a while. When she hung up, the smile on her face immediately disappeared, replaced by a chill.
Although she already knew Heriberto’s attitude very well, she couldn’t offend the Hale family.
Megan, she still had to keep sucking up.

Not long after, her dad Marlon Powell called again and asked directly, “Katrina, what did Heriberto mean by those words in the TV interview?”
“Dad, it might not be easy to win over Heriberto. Can you and mom help me find a suitable partner for marriage?” she said weakly.
“You think I and your mom don’t want to, but finding a marriage partner not worse than the Hale family is not easy!”
Marlon sighed, and reminded, “Katrina, no matter what Heriberto’s attitude is now, as long as Megan and Charlie still care about you, you can’t give up.”
Katrina nodded, “Dad, I know.”
“Don’t worry, I’ve already spread the word, and there are already many people interested in investing in our Powell Pharmaceuticals. When the time comes, I’ll find a suitable partner for you, but until then, the Hale family, you must not slack off,” Marlon said again.
“Yeah, I got it.”
***
The next day, the team from The Powell Group had a meeting with The Hale Group about the Maple Mountain project, but Heriberto didn’t attend.
The project was handed over to a vice president from the Hale Group.
