"She's…with you?" muttered Alice in shock. She could feel chills down her spine when she saw Cedrick staring at her, so she hurriedly smiled, stood up, and greeted Catelyn, "I'm sorry, Miss! That was very rude of me. Please, have a seat."That explained why Cedrick did not care about Alice when she presented herself to him; he already had someone else in mind!Cedrick looked at Catelyn and patted the empty seat beside him.The meaning was obvious—he was asking her to sit with him.Catelyn was in a dilemma.However, looking at Alice's aggrieved appearance, she smiled brightly and walked toward Cedrick, sitting next to him.Cedrick put his arms around her and could smell the faint scent of gardenias on her body. It was intoxicating, much unlike any other woman."Why are you here? You missed me?" teased Cedrick, thinking that Catelyn was here for him, and he held her closer to his body.Catelyn, however, was more concerned about finding Joanne as soon as possible.She exerted a b

Edwin raised his eyelids, returning to his usual impish self. "The internet has shown Joanne’s true colors. That woman has a messy life, and she often sells her privacy for money to gain fame and popularity. I don’t want the Barricade Club’s reputation and, more importantly, our customer’s privacy to be compromised just because of her."Catelyn instinctively shot up from her seat upon hearing Edwin's response. "Those comments about Joanne aren't true at all; they’re all biased!"Since Catelyn knew that Joanne had been kicked out, she was concerned about her whereabouts.Feeling worried, Catelyn pushed Cedrick away and was about to leave the place to continue looking for Joanne when someone grabbed her wrist. She turned and noticed that it was Cedrick."Where are you going?" he asked, staring at her."Joanne is my friend. I’m going to find her," replied Catelyn.Catelyn removed Cedrick’s hand away from her and left without looking back.Cedrick remained seated. He thought that sh

There was a built-in wardrobe in the suite where Cedrick would usually hang a few of his coats in the closet.On the occasions when Cedrick got drunk with his friends, he would spend the night sleeping in this room.As he opened the door, Cedrick took off his jacket and frowned when he noticed the wine stain from earlier.He stripped his clothes as he walked inside the suite and eventually reached the wardrobe naked.Just as he was about to open the wardrobe door, his sharp eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of a small bag arched under the quilt on the bed, as if a person was lying there.He sniffed around a little, but instead of smelling the familiar gardenia fragrance, it was a strong and pungent jasmine scent.Cedrick raised his eyebrows coldly and took out his mobile phone to make a call."There's a woman in my room. Call security," said Cedrick as he continued to dress calmly.Lola, who was under the quilt, quickly shouted to him anxiously, “Master Cedrick, it's me!”Cedrick

“Send her to the police station," demanded Cedrick. "I’m accusing her of sexual harassment!”Lola froze upon hearing this, and even the head security guard gaped in shock.Ever since the guard had been in charge of security at the Barricade Club for so many years, he has seen many female clients complaining about harassment issues from men. Never had he seen any men complaining about a woman who sexually harassed him, though.“Understood,” said the head guard. Two of his men came forward and pulled Lola up from the ground.Knowing that her actions were irreversible, Lola burst into tears while she internally raged against Catelyn, wanting to drag that woman deeper into the waters. “Wake up, Master Cedrick! Catelyn doesn't truly love you; she’s only using you as a stepping stone to climb up her career ladder!"She also offered that if she handed you to me, I'll then make her the winner of the Chandier Jewelry Competition. Your love means nothing to her!"Lola’s pleading voice e

Catelyn tried to imagine it.Edwin had been dissolute for years. He had a reputable family background, was generous, and good-looking. Many women must have clung to him voluntarily.Edwin wanted to reject the girl, but she still came onto him anyway. Unfortunately, Joanne had misunderstood Edwin to be the bad guy in the scenario.The scene was too perfect. Catelyn ceased her imagination."What did your manager say about it?" Catelyn knew that Joanne was always obedient to her manager, and was a little worried about it.Joanne smiled and waved her hand dismissively. "No worries, I can handle this."That night, even though Joanne was back, Catelyn could not sleep well, and it baffled her.…The next morning, Ollie video-called her from Mason Estate.Janice had sent him to the Estate by Saturday night and had video-called Catelyn from time to time to inform her of his whereabouts.He would tell her about his breakfast, sometimes about the fun he had at his grandmother's, and he

Cedrick's voice was nasally and sounded like he was up all night.The time on Catelyn's screen showed that it was nine in the morning.Cedrick was probably still in bed by this hour."Nothing, I accidentally pressed on your contact. Have a good rest." Catelyn hung up without hesitation.The thought that Cedrick and Lola had slept together made her feel queasy, but Catelyn quickly shook her head.'Sweet, sweet Catelyn. Why do you even care?'No, she did not care.She just could not accept that, after sleeping with Lola, there might still be a chance that Cedrick would sleep with her.Yes, that must be the reason.Catelyn tried to explain to herself, but the agitation did not leave her. She regretted having dialed him.…Cedrick, who just sat up from his bed in the Barricade Club and heard the end-call beeps, had a similarly grim expression.Catelyn slipped Lola into his room, yet she was the one throwing a tantrum? He really should not have spoiled her so much.He lifted th

"..." Cedrick could feel his temples pulsing as his fingers wrapped tightly around his cutleries.Ollie imitated Miles' way of fawning to his mom and said gently to Cedrick, "Father, it's generous of Aunt Catelyn to not mind your previous engagement with Aunt Maia at all. Don't annoy her anymore. Go on and console her, alright? I'd like her to be my mother."Since Cedrick did not know the truth, it did not matter even if he called Catelyn his mother.Cedrick lost his appetite completely.It was always 'Catelyn this', 'Catelyn that'. Ollie would never stop talking about her! Could he not give him a break?He put his cutleries aside and shot Ollie a cold glare. "You want her to be your mother, but would she agree?"Ollie knew she was his birth mother, except that Cedrick was not aware of it.However, Ollie was well aware of how much Cedrick hated the term 'legitimate mother'.He pretended to be disappointed and hung his head low. He then gave Cedrick an encouraging look and said,

Charles stretched his neck to peek and noticed that Cedrick wanted to send a message but did not. It then dawned on him.It made sense why he was in such a bad mood; he must have quarreled with Miss Clark."Cedrick, Miss Clark is coming for an interview this afternoon at four. Would you like me to pass on a message to the human resource department for you to interview her personally?"Cedrick looked displeased. "Office time for personal matters? Do you still want your bonus for this month?"Charles felt like he had been wronged.…Catelyn finished her design draft and was about to send it to Chandier Jewelry personally. Of course, she still felt the jitters when she handed in her draft.It was because she was a little bold with her design this time to not have done something mainstream.However, to win the contest, she had to take some risks.She had done all that she could, and the rest was up to fate.Lola spent two days in the police station because of Cedrick's sexual har
