NovelOnlineChapter 368 Why should I help her? Selena took a seat beside Caterlington, right next to Raymond, a position he arranged for her.
Clearly, Caterlington was intentionally provoking trouble.
Earlier, in the opposite dining box, Grace had given her a few glances. Despite her upbringing, Grace didn't make any snide remarks, but her attitude made it clear that she didn't like Selena. The other side's dinner ended early, but it turned out that Caterlington had another agenda.
Caterlington was a master at livening up the atmosphere, and the conversation immediately shifted towards the PW Group.
Tonight's dinner hosted by Cornerstone Construction was originally meant to thank Raymond, so as long as the ambiance was lively and not awkward, it would be considered a success. With Caterlington joining in, the conversation flowed smoothly for everyone.
Alan had heard about PW Group before and couldn't help but agree.
"Mr. Walsh just acquired a large company. Could it be that he's interested in PW Group?" Caterlington chuckled lightly, "I've only heard that PW Group has been collaborating with several companies lately. It's quite surprising that these companies would agree, considering how cunning PW Group can be." Other executives also joined the discussion.

"I heard that the Montague family has already blacklisted PW Group. Mr. Montague wouldn't happen to have any news about Bert, would he?" Raymond indeed had the information, but dealing with a low-level company like PW Group wasn't the Montague family's concern.
He took a sip of his drink and leaned back slightly.
His wrist adorned an expensive silver watch, and the movement of his hand holding the glass highlighted the slender lines on the back of his thin hand.
His handsappearance easily captivated people's attention.
Selena glanced at him a few times before averting her gaze, focusing on PW Group instead.
Caterlington raised his glass to Raymond with a smile.
"If Mr. Montague knows, could you please inform Selena that her husband is quite useless? He can't even resolve her personal feud with Bert." Selena's heart raced. Caterlington sure enjoyed stirring up . If Raymond were to learn about her true identity in the future and recall this scene, he might completely ruin his own company. Just as she was about to defend her husband for a few words, Raymond's gaze turned towards Selena.
"Do you have any personal grievances with Bert?" he asked.
Selena's heart tightened with worry, fearing that Raymond would immediately connect Bert to the Fair family's company.
But Caterlington explained on her behalf.
"Mr. Montague, Bert is friends with my father. Given my father's interests, what kind of grievance could Bert have with Selena? Back then at the New York Academy of Art, didn't Selena already report that Department Chair? Those people are all in cahoots with my father." Though that old Kross was truly despicable, having a son like Caterlington was his greatest punishment.
In this moment, Selena fully understood Caterlington's tactics.
He casually mentioned the Walsh family's scandal, which had caused a stir in the entire social circle at the time, especially since it involved Harvard University and the students.
After Kross's downfall, Caterlington naturally rose to power.

Now, he spoke about the Walsh family's matter without any om hesitation, showing a strong belief that it wouldn't affect him. His words provided Selena with the perfect excuse.
Furthermore, Caterlington's words alerted Selena to the fact that Bert's private life was also rather chaotic.
A smile appeared on Caterlington's face.
"Shouldn't the information Mr.
Montague has be enough to bring down the PW Group? Why not help Selena? After all, she is your designer, right?" Raymond narrowed his eyes, but his words were merciless. "Why should I help her?" Implied in his words was the notion that just being a designer wasn't enough.
This statement caught Caterlington off guard, but Olivia laughed and concurred.
"Merely a designer, even if Raymond has information, it's beenhard-earned by the Montague family's investigation. It certainly shouldn't ccheap."
