Chapter 159 Take Me to Eastward, Quickly!
Kate’s face turned pale all of a sudden. Trembling, she took out her phone to call Eric, but…
“The number you have dialled is currently unavailable. Please try again later…”
A series of cold electronic tones sounded, and Kate’s expression grew grim. She quickly called Lucas but still couldn’t get through!
Fificen minutes…
Kate quickly reasoned that the distance from Starlight Tower to Eastward was only ten minutes. away. After all, Starlight Tower was located near Eastward. With light traffic and wide roads, ten minutes was enough for Eric to reach Eastward.
And his phone isn’t being answered. I don’t know if something happened or if there’s no signal!
Kate had lost interest in anything else that might happen next. She couldn’t spare a thought for anything other than grabbing Hendrick’s sleeve tightly and tremblingly saying, “Hendrick, take me to Eastward, quickly!”
Her voice was incredibly urgent, her face filled with anxiety.
Hendrick didn’t ask why. He decisively grabbed Kate’s hand. “Let’s go!”
Miles had been conversing with other designers and members of the judging panel. However, he felt puzzled when he saw Hendrick and Kate hastily rushing out. He called out from afar, “Mrs. Davison!”
Miles separated from the crowd and hurried after them, asking with confusion, “What’s going on? Did something happen?”
He looked at Kate’s pale face, even her lips devoid of colour, her expression filled with anxiety. Her eyes showed nothing but confusion.
It was the first time he had seen Kate so anxious and out of control. What on earth had happened?
“There’s no time to explain…”
Kate hurriedly walked outside, saying, “Go to Davison Group and get Lucas to bring some people over. We need to go to Eastward right away!”
Then Kate, without considering anything else, immediately called George and instructed him to quickly bring people to Eastward.
George, who answered the phone, looked bewildered but followed Kate’s instructions. He quickly assembled the team, and several cars roared out of Summer Estate toward Eastward.

Kate and Miles‘ departure also drew a lot of attention.
“How could they just leave like that? Don’t they still need to give their speeches on stage? Are they leaving just like this?”
“I’m afraid there must be something urgent. Ms. Lowe asked Miles to convey that there’s an emergency to deal with.”
“Well, she claimed she had no relationship with Miles, but they left together. I don’t believe it’s just a coincidence.”
“Who knows? Their affairs are not something we can pry into.”
After a few comments, the group moved on from the topic.
However, a man in a silver suit adjusted his gold–rimmed glasses and watched in the direction Kate and Miles had left. A cold glint flashed in his eyes.
Today’s events had gone beyond his expectations. He hadn’t anticipated that Kate would leave such a mark on her design draft, directly crushing Ruth. The series of strategies he had prepared were rendered useless.
Since targeting Kate was no longer an option, he would have to change direction.
The man slowly stood up, approached a few writers, whispered something to them, and then quietly left.
A name badge with two ornate letters gleaming was pinned to his chest: ‘MC‘.
At this moment, Kate sat in Hendrick’s car, her mind entirely focused on Eric. Miles had gone to Davison Group to mobilize personnel, so no one realised that the online public opinion was escalating more seriously.
