The man next to Maia was also very handsome. He looked a little familiar, and Catelyn seemed to have seen him somewhere.The two hugged each other intimately, and the man quickly kissed Maia on the cheek.Maia smacked the man on the chest light with a playful look. The man grabbed her hand and kissed her on the lips. They were flirting like a couple.Catelyn was flabbergasted.Was Maia having an affair?Did Cedrick break off the engagement with Maia because he had already discovered that Maia was cheating on him?She took out her phone and took a picture of the two hugging each other. When she was about to send it to Cedrick, she stopped as soon as she clicked on her messaging app.She was just rejecting Cedrick's advances a moment ago, and now she was sending him pictures like this as if she was going to give him some hints…Catelyn saved the photo and rolled up the window."Please drive, sir. Ocean Path Residence, thank you."...At the gate of the hotel, Maia was almost o
"Here, this is the information my subordinates found for you."After a pause, Edwin pointed at one of the thumb drives and explained, "By the way, this is the surveillance video that Charles sent. He said that it contained the videos of your office being damaged that day."Cedrick nodded slightly, picked up the thumb drive, and connected it to the computer.There was indeed a video in it.During the banquet, Cedrick suspected that Maia had gone through his confidential documents, but when he went to check the surveillance video afterward, he found out that the surveillance video was destroyed.Fortunately, the IT department of the Mason Group was completely useless.Cedrick clicked on the video. Sure enough, when Charles was making tea for him, Maia opened the documents on his desk in secret and stole a few of them!A haze of anger slowly crept up his eyes.How dare Maia steal from him.However, all this information only contained the surveillance video and information of that
She took the elevator to the top floor of the office building, where Benjamin's office was located.The receptionist was facing the door. Behind her, the logo of the Andersons Law Firm was particularly striking. It was made of white tiles, and the table was placed with a round porcelain vase. The interior design was simple and magnificent."Hello, I'm Catelyn. I have an appointment with Mr. Anderson at three o'clock this afternoon." Catelyn walked to the front desk and reminded her gently.The receptionist made a simple inquiry on the computer and looked at the information on Catelyn's ID card. "Okay, Mr. Anderson is meeting a client right now. Please wait for a moment in the waiting area."Those who could hire Mr. Anderson were either rich or powerful.Even if it was just for consulting, the price for the session was nothing cheap.The receptionist did not dare to neglect any clients that came here. Catelyn sat in the waiting area and waited. It was almost three o'clock in ano
"It's two fifty-seven and twenty-four seconds now. It's not your time yet." Benjamin looked at Catelyn up and down and found that the shoes, along with the cheap suit she was wearing, cost no more than one thousand five hundred dollars in total.Although Benjamin never rejected ordinary clients, he was profit-oriented and would not do more than he could and deserved."Go out and turn right. The elevator is on the third floor. There is another law firm over there." Benjamin said, then turned his head in the direction of the receptionist. "Sandra, transfer Ms. Clark's details to that law firm instead."The receptionist knew it would be like this. "Okay, Mr. Anderson."Benjamin stretched his legs.Catelyn realized what had happened. She rushed to Benjamin and tried to stop him, "Wait, Mr. Anderson, I...""There is a reminder for placing an appointment online. If an emergency happened that caused the consulting not to continue, the appointment fee wouldn't be returned."Benjamin wou
"What did she tell you?" Cedrick asked in a low voice.With a disgusted look on his face, Benjamin replied, "It's so cheap for you to have a mistress. You don't even buy her a set of designer clothes. Look at the stuff that she is wearing. You are worse than I am."Cedrick's mouth twitched. "A few days ago, your mother asked me if there was a suitable marriage candidate for you. She did not care about her appearance, education, or family background, as long as she was willing to spend all your money away."Damn it! Was his value in the dating market this terrible already?...When she walked out of the office building, Catelyn was not discouraged.There were many excellent lawyers in Sapphire City. Since Benjamin was going abroad, he would not accept consulting sessions for a period of time. Similarly, Jamie could not hire him either. The most important thing at present was to have a stable job.If she went to court in the future, the judge would believe that she had the strengt
Meanwhile, at Golden Sun Kindergarten.The afternoon sun shone gently, casting its golden light upon the flowers in the garden.Ollie came up with an excuse to go home early.Exiting the kindergarten, he then turned right and followed the trail. He was carrying a backpack with a cartoonish yellow duck pattern, which accentuated his innocent-looking face even more.As he made a turn, Ollie sensed that there was a presence following him from a distance. He cautiously made a turn into a hidden alley.Miles sneakily followed after him.'Huh? I could've sworn he went this way. Why don't I see him anywhere?' Miles thought to himself when all of a sudden, he noticed a dark figure moving toward him. With pursed lips, he switched to an offensive position to face the shadow—"It's me!" shouted Ollie as subconsciously dodged Miles' swing in self-defense.Miles pouted and sighed in relief. "Idiot! Why didn't you say anything if you knew that it was me? You would've cried if I accidentally
Clearing his throat, Ollie sweetly replied as he batted his crystal-clear eyes at the doctor, "We didn't make the wrong appointment, pretty lady. Please help us send the samples for the DNA test. We've already settled the payment for this, too."The doctor's hand unconsciously supported the side of her face as she grinned at Ollie's compliment."Not a mistake, then? Alright, I'll make the arrangements for the procedure right away. You boys are still very young, so don't run around, okay? Wait here for me."...The light of the setting sun shone through the car window and lit up the inside of the car.Catelyn sat in the passenger's seat and tried to distract herself by staring at the moving skyscrapers.How did Cedrick find out that she was fighting Jamie for the custody of her son? Did Benjamin tell him? How could he lack professionalism to this extent?Cedrick moved the steering wheel and drove ahead slowly, all the while glancing at her from the corner of his eye."Jamie had
Catelyn wanted to pull her hand away, but Cedrick was so strong that she could not move, even if she struggled until her skin turned red.She became increasingly frustrated as even if he was not threatening her, he was still taking advantage of her."Do you really not care about my past?"She birthed a child out of wedlock, and her father was a notorious murderer. People of the Clark family had avoided her like the plague, and for someone like her to survive in the elite community, she might qualify as a plaything but not at all the type that one would take home to their parents.Cedrick had told Janice that Catelyn was his new lover the other day and up until now, Catelyn still had no clue as to what he meant by it.Would the Masons even believe that he was interested in a woman like her? She would not even qualify to be a wallflower."I'm choosing my girlfriend, not a business partner. Besides, I have an illegitimate son as well, don't I?" Cedrick smiled as stared at her heated
