Chapter 1356Noticing his serious expression, Catelyn rinsed her mouth, spit out the bubbles, and asked, "What has happened? Don't scare me."Looking at her anxious face, Cedrick couldn't bear to tell her the truth though he had initially planned to do so.It was her mother who was hurt. Was Catelyn prepared to accept the truth? Cedrick replied, "I admit that Ollie guessed right. I was thinking about a woman last night. But the woman was you."At his words, Catelyn didn’t know what to say. She had thought that he would say something serious.But his expression was so serious just now that he shouldn’t have cracked a joke.She narrowed her eyes and queried, "Is this really what you intend to say?"Cedrick smiled and walked to encircle her waist from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder. His serious expression had been replaced by his usual calmness."Besides, I plan to say I miss you, and I don’t want our sons to divert your attention from me."She pressed her lips and
Chapter 1357Catelyn stared into Cedrick's eyes and said seriously, "You're not going to say it, right? Then I'll go to the front desk and borrow the phone to call Alfred or just go confront Sofia. You should know that I can do it."Cedrick closed his eyes slightly, secretly suppressing the churning anger. He knew there was no point in hiding it any longer."Don't worry. Sofia didn't do anything to you, but...""But what?""Your mom." Cedrick spat out two words and explained, "Previously, we only knew that Ezekiel had hurt your mom, but it turns out that Ezekiel also took pictures which somehow fell into Sofia's hands. Now she's posted them online, which has stirred up a huge disturbance, and you are involved...""My mom?" Catelyn's face turned even paler.She wished she had suffered instead of her mom."Where are the pictures?" Catelyn held on to the wall to keep herself from swaying and said urgently, "Where are the pictures? Show me!""I've already controlled the transmissi
Chapter 1358Furious, Granny Atherton ignored Edwin’s excuse, “Summer! It’s Summer. I’m certain of that!” She was enraged by Summer’s sufferings and people’s speculation about Catelyn. “Who the hell abused Summer and even posted these photos? Does he have a grudge against our family?” She asked Edwin angrily.She knew exactly what chastity meant to a woman.The release of these photos brought shame on Summer.“Look, Granny, this is actually a strike against Kitty and Ced. Ced has contacted the media outlets, and the situation will be under control soon. He can soon fix it.”Although Granny Atherton was no longer involved with the Atherton family's matters after she recovered from illness last year, her mind remained sharp.“Is it the man who stole Jennie?”Edwin did not want to upset Granny Atherton, who was already in poor health. However, he nodded after a few moments’ hesitance, “You’re right. Kitty has been meeting Mr. Denham‘s recently.”“Didn’t she go to meet Mr. Swale?”
Chapter 1359"Thank you, Ms. Evans.""Stop! Who are you? Here is Mason Group. Mason Group doesn't receive visitors today. You can't go in." The moment Trevor and Sofia reached the gate, a middle-aged man in uniform with a security armband came over and stopped them. "What are you talking about?" Trevor stepped ahead of Sofia and glared at the security guard. "The boss of Mason Group has changed. Don't you even know who your new boss is?"Hearing Trevor’s words, the security guard became startled.It was said in the morning that Cedrick had transferred the shares to someone else, and the person also secretly bought the shares from other shareholders...The news caused a sensation soon after it was spread.Then the security guard bowed to Sofia. "Madam, are you the new boss? It's an honor to meet you. My name is Jimmy. I'm the guard. Some people have been coming to cause trouble here since 5 a.m. We have just called the police to take them away. When I saw you, I thought you were
Chapter 1360 Charles was excited all the way, "Mr. Jones, you take over the company right on time! Mr. Mason has changed dramatically lately, and he is very critical of his employees. He has failed several large investment projects, and he has lost a lot of money in the overseas market. If you hadn't taken over the Mason Group, we really didn't know how long the company could survive..." Trevor's eyebrows jerked, "What did you say? Overseas market?" Sofia looked at Charles coldly. Charles's face changed color slightly. Then he pretended to have said something wrong and hurriedly said with a smile, "Ah, you don't know yet? Mr. Jones, please ignore what I have said." Trevor shouted, "Tell me clearly!" Charles had no choice but to tell them about the current situation. The Mason Group was originally short of funds. After Cedrick came back, he invested abroad wantonly, and he competed with Trevor, causing the share price of the Mason Group to fall, so the investors stopped t
Chapter 1361Just then, the security guard rushed over and reported, "Mr. Jones, here comes another group of people claiming their money back. They are making a fuss in the conference room..." Sofia was annoyed and she yelled, "Who let them come into the conference room? Kick them away!" The security guard gave an embarrassed look, "You instructed me earlier to let them wait in the conference room and you said our company had enough money and that you would have the finance department prepare the money for them." Sofia was embarrassed, but she couldn't refute the security guard. She did say the company had money. And now she was furious. The debtors were getting louder and louder in the conference room. They kept bellowing. "Where's your boss?" "Don’t you have plenty of money? When are you going to pay me back my 10 million dollars? I heard that some of the creditors were taken to the police station because you charged them with rioting! You owe us money and you shou
Chapter 1362 "My boss gave me a strict order. I have to get the money back! Or I'll be fired!" The man with a dragon tattoo rolled up his sleeves and roared gruffly. Another man with a tiger tattoo patted his thigh and cried miserably, “You just will be fired, but I’m going to disappear from Sapphire City if I don't get the money back..." "Hey, you guys are luckier than me. If I don't get the money back, my whole family will be cut up and fed to the sharks, so please pay the money back." Trevor was speechless. He found that the people who came to ask for the debt were not the legal people of those companies but a group of special debt collectors employed by those companies. In other words, it was no use talking to them about repayment dates. Trevor said a lot and used many ways to calm down these debt collectors and stall for time. Finally, Ralph came back in a hurry. Ralph was petrified when he heard the roar of a large group of people in the conference room, thinking,
Chapter 1363Sofia had a vague feeling that she had been tricked.These accounts were perfect in every way...How could Charles make them alone?Where did the mistake occur? Could it be that Charles has long recognized that the "Cedrick" in front of him was a fake? Was he prepared for this?Sofia felt dizzy.Ralph, who was scolded, was a bit scared and confused about the situation.He was about to call Charles in and ask for clarification.Bang!Suddenly, the office door was slammed open from the outside."Ms. Evans, I found something terrible...""Shit, Trevor, are you courting death?" Ralph was startled by Trevor's sudden appearance, his eyelids fluttering violently. Ralph cursed, "Don't you know Ms. Evans and I are talking about something? Are you blind, or are your hands broken? Why did you just barge in? Get out of here right now!"Sofia saw Trevor's anxious face, and the foreboding in her heart grew stronger...It was like a fire burning all the plans which she had w
