"Looks nice. It looks like a high-end custom-made desk. I guess it costs a lot of money, doesn't it?"

"I had someone customize this desk to my liking, and the shipping fee cost me hundreds of thousands of pounds."

Catelyn noticed how Ivan wore shorts that dragged up to reveal his thighs when he crossed his legs. The sight appalled her.

To her, Cedrick's body hair was more pleasing than his.

Her eyes sank. She had no idea why she had thought of Cedrick all of a sudden, but she quickly detached herself from the feeling.

Shortly afterward, Ivan piped up once more, asking, "Do you know the exchange rate between pounds and your country? In other words, this desk is worth a sports car in your country."

Yep, he was a jerk, alright.

Did he, like Amy, think she came from a rural village and had never seen the world?

"Is that so? I'm surprised! You can buy an expensive sports car with the amount used to have this small desk?" Catelyn exaggerated her doubtful expression.

    The overwhelming smell of cheap perfume wafted in through the door as Catelyn spotted Amy walking in. She wore a sexy camisole with a low neckline and a long coat.Catelyn stopped her hand that held a glass of juice when she saw the smiling Amy."Cat, how could you not include me? Seriously, you're dating a gorgeous man without telling me about it?"Amy sat next to Catelyn and stretched her hand toward Edwin with her pinkie finger raised. "Hello, handsome! I'm Amy, Cat's colleague. You sent her to the company last time, didn't you?"'She's calling me Cat? Since when were we close?' Catelyn satirized.Edwin could already tell their relationship just by paying attention to Catelyn's expression.He placed down the cutlery in his hand gracefully and clasped his fingers with Amy's.When he released his hand, his fingertips seemed to slip through her palm inadvertently. The action made her skin tingle as her cheeks turned red and her beautiful eyes glowed shyly.This was the first ti

    "Catelyn, for the sake of your sense of humor yesterday, I kindly remind you..." said Amy as she haughtily walked up to Catelyn, "that it's too late for you to resign now.""That shouldn't be something that bothers you.""Hmph. You'll regret that you've taken my kindness as malice today. If it weren't for Mister Atherton, I wouldn't even care to tell you this."Amy hummed a little tune and walked away with a grin.The suspicion in Catelyn's heart reached its peak at that moment.She could not help but secretly phoned Edwin and got straight to the point, "Did you really…with Amy?""What?" Edwin teased.Catelyn gritted her teeth and spoke in a deep tone, "Get in bed!""She dared to bluff about that, huh?" Edwin sneered in disdain. "Do you think I like that kind of chick?""So you didn't even touch her?"'Why was she so haughty, then?' wondered Catelyn to herself.Edwin did not explain the matter as he playfully responded, "You sound like you want me to bed her or something."

    What shocked Catelyn was that in just a few seconds, the lady had disappeared. Even as she looked around, the Franch lady was nowhere in sight.In the end, she handed the bag to the lost-and-found counter in the restaurant.Little did she know that her kind act would bring her big trouble in the future.…Somewhere in Italey, Cedrick had just finished his work. He habitually opened his mailbox and saw an email from Eason.He had instructed Eason to report Catelyn's daily routine to him every day, after all.There were a few photos attached to the email, which were photos of Catelyn eating with Edwin the two little children.One caught Cedrick's attention the most. It was a photo of Edwin putting his hand on Catelyn's head, and he even stared at Catelyn so fondly.Cedrick's gaze sharpened.George was irritating enough, but at this point, he might also have to deal with Edwin.Catelyn had a gentle smile in the photo, while the two kids ate happily. Their eyes were narrowed into

    Although he did not make it clear that he wanted the children's custody, Cedrick had always been unpredictable, so he might change his mind at any point.Hearing Catelyn's breaths, he realized how the pent-up anger and sadness he felt before inexplicably dissipated."Are you still here?" Catelyn was baffled as to why Cedrick did not even say a thing. "Did you make the wrong call? I'll hang up—""No, I didn't," came Cedrick's response before she could hang up the phone.His deep voice sounded vague in the dawn.Even so, Catelyn tensed when she heard his voice. "What's the matter? Why are you calling this early in the morning?""Can't I call you even if I have nothing to say?" He sounded rather stiff and somewhat angry altogether."I thought you'd be quite busy."Catelyn was guessing that he was too bored and had spare time that he called her to talk about such a boring topic. The atmosphere turned awkward all of a sudden.Cedrick was sitting in front of his desk with the black

    Catelyn came up with the overall idea of the model, from the general setting to those details.However, Ivan added some features to her slightly imperfect design, and it instantly became unique.The model had been sent to the investing company.Catelyn was initially happy to hear the news, but her mood was ruined when she found out that Ivan had signed to be the beneficiary.That was her design, yet Ivan would be taking the money!William, the director, even publicly praised Ivan for his bold design, saying that was out of the box.Catelyn found Ivan in the office, sipping coffee in his iconic shorts and slippers. He looked into the distance as he held his cup of coffee.He was not surprised when he saw Catelyn come in angrily."Manager, shouldn't you give me an explanation for this?"Ivan was not even fazed when he was caught. He took out a check from the drawer and said, "Is this money enough? I've bought your design."She glanced at the check. It was not signed, and there

    "Director, she's making it up." Amy raised her head proudly, glanced at Catelyn, and said, "I secretly recorded this! I saw it with my own eyes! That woman filled her purse with money and gave it to Catelyn!"At that very moment, the onlookers burst into an uproar and discussion."My, my! Is Catelyn a mole in the company?""That purse does seem loaded with money…""I didn't know that Catelyn would be such a person. They trade in the bathroom to avoid being photographed, right?"Hearing her colleagues discussing her, Catelyn felt a chill running through her body, and her limbs stiffened.Catelyn realized, at that moment, that the lady had deliberately left the purse that day.She had tricked Catelyn to notice her purse by taking the initiative to talk to her.Amy had tricked her.Jolene quickly stepped forward to support Catelyn when she saw her about to faint. She tried to defend her, "Director, I believe in Catelyn. She's nothing like the person they're cursing. I've witnesse

    Catelyn could not do anything…unless she gathered evidence that Amy and Ivan were in cahoots on this mess.It was ridiculous. She knew that they had been setting her up for this, but she did not even notice it.Looking at Ivan's level of proficiency, who knew how many rookie designers had fallen prey to this trick of his. They could either take the money or be framed by him to be banished from the company!Catelyn silently packed her things and left the VSA Company building in despair, all while Amy viciously stared at her.Meanwhile, Eason has been following Catelyn from a distance.Before Cedrick left, he instructed Eason to pick up Catelyn and the two boys, and Catelyn would usually not turn him down.Additionally, Eason would take a few photos and send them to Cedrick.Today, however, something seemed off with Catelyn.Something was wrong.Eason quickly took a few more photos and sent them to Cedrick's mailbox before he got out of the car and walked toward Catelyn."Miss

    With an umbrella in one hand, Cedrick's stern features were overshadowed as the light around them illuminated him from behind. All this made his expression somewhat gloomy.Catelyn's pupils dilated at the sight. She could not believe her eyes and felt as though she was hallucinating.Cedrick? Was he not in Italey?"Why are you standing here without an umbrella? What if you catch a cold?" spoke Cedrick, his words uttered with an irritated undertone, making Catelyn certain that she was, in fact, not hallucinating.Due to their height difference, Cedrick's line of sight was slightly lower, overlooking Catelyn.Catelyn's eyes met his for a moment. "You... You came back?" she blurted."You know you can call me if you need anything," said Cedrick. "Even if you want to catch a cold, think of the child in your belly!"Cedrick glanced at her flat stomach while forcing the umbrella into her hand. He then took off his heavy coat and draped it over her thin shoulders.Catelyn was startled

It will bring you a long, happy life together."The vendor stared at Catelyn with eager eyes, frantically trying to sell his products.Cedrick looked down at Catelyn tenderly and asked, "Do you like it?"Catelyn picked up a charm to take a look, smiling, "It's not bad, but is it too expensive?"The charm was a good symbol. However, it was just casually made, not worth that much. This vendor was clearly trying to rip them off."As long as you like it, it has value."Cedrick raised his chin. Eason immediately handed over 10 hundred-dollar bills.The vendor gazed at the dollar bills with glowing eyes, took them with trembling hands, and chose a perfect charm for Catelyn and Cedrick.Cedrick took the charm and connected Catelyn's hand and his with it.His long, slender fingers moved. Even the slightest movement was very pleasant. Coupled with the romantic atmosphere, it was so beautiful.Joanne got excited as she watched them, clamoring, "I want o

Evelyn actually cheated on him!""Her lover is too ugly. Evelyn has terrible taste.""Ahhh, Evelyn moaned so lewdly in the video. How can this man compare to Mr. Mason? I want to vomit..."As people online questioned and criticized Evelyn, her reputation completely collapsed, and she quickly became notorious.Cedrick became the victim of this incident.Cedrick sat in the car, looking at the responses on the Internet. He nodded and said, "You did a good job."To create the illusion that Evelyn cheated on Cedrick, Eason used AI technology to change Ralph's face into a stranger's in the videos of Evelyn and him having sex.

    Chapter 1941Evelyn's voice paused, and her eyes were vicious and angry as she questioned hysterically, "But I did everything out of love for you!"Cedrick wanted to laugh. "Thank you, Ms. Swan. Although your love makes me sick, I have kindly prepared a gift for you."Evelyn looked at him in fear and confusion when she saw a familiar figure walk in through the door.The visitor was just as tall, straight, and handsome as Cedrick. It was amazing to see any difference in their appearance."It's you? You're Ralph?" exclaimed Evelyn, her stomach lurching.For so many nights, she had sex with Ralph, the imposter. No wonder the baby she gave birth to was so disgusting too."Little bitch, long time no see. I missed you so much."Ralph grinned and walked toward Evelyn with lustful eyes."Go away! Go away!"Evelyn frantically waved her pillow, trying to repel Ralph, but these attacks were like a kitten's playing in Ralph's eyes.Ralph smiled evilly, dragged Evelyn down from the hospi

    Chapter 1940A few seconds later, she tore up the piece of paper regardless and looked at Cedrick with crazy eyes, "I'm your wife! It's Mrs. Mason in name only! All of this is a lie. My daughter is your child! And could only be your child!"Cedrick sneered, his deep eyes icy, "Think what you want, as long as you're happy."His voice was deep, pleasant, and charming, but what he said sent chills down Evelyn's spine.Evelyn looked at him incredulously. The smile on Cedrick's lips became even more fascinating. "There's something I forgot to mention. Are you sure the person you married is me? My wife is Catelyn from the beginning."Previous images flashed through Evelyn's mind. She thought of Cedrick's different attitudes. His passion, his impatience... Scene by scene, frame by frame, it was like a horrible movie, making her shiver."Cedrick, you indeed lied to me..."Evelyn stared at Cedrick with hatred, her eyes paranoid and mad."Even if my child is not yours and I didn't marry

    Chapter 1939"I'm satisfied," Cedrick smiled dangerously, his eyes emotional.It was a smile that made Evelyn feel extremely alarmed."Then ... show me the baby."Cedrick looked at Evelyn condescendingly, his deep eyes full of coldness. "Eason."Eason respectfully carried the baby over to the hospital bed. "Mrs. Mason, please."Evelyn took the child in surprise and lifted the swaddling blanket on the baby.Although it was a girl, Evelyn gave birth to her. Naturally, Evelyn loved her.Yet the moment she saw the baby's face, Evelyn's face suddenly changed, and she quickly threw the baby away, leaning down and vomiting."No, it's not my baby! It's not my baby!"'How can she possibly be my child?' The baby was deformed. Her little face was bruised. Her eyes, nose, and mouth were all tightly grown together. She looked extraordinarily horrible..."Mrs. Mason, this is your baby!"Eason nimbly caught the baby that almost fell to the floor and brought it back to Evelyn."Take her a

We'll have an easy time when she has given birth."The doctor reprimanded and turned to go back to his office.Inside the room, Evelyn scrolled through the videos and news with a bitter smile.These days after she came back, Cedrick visited her every day and was photographed by many reporters and media. Now the news was all about her and Cedrick being in love.Yet only she knew that Cedrick always left soon after he came, never staying longer than fifteen minutes.'Is it really because he's too busy working?'When she thought of Summer and Braylon, who came in and out together affectionately, a glint of jealousy flashed in Evelyn's eyes.If only Cedrick could always stay by her side as Braylon did to Summer.Soon, it was Evelyn's due date."Cedrick, I'm so scared..."Evelyn grabbed Cedrick's sleeve, sweating in pain.

The condescension she had when she first arrived disappeared.'Braylon is no ordinary man. What if he really wants to help Summer get back at me?'Evelyn subconsciously rubbed her belly. She mustn't let anything happen to her child. She called the nurse and said coldly, "Ask the doctor to come here! I suspect someone has poisoned me."The nurse gave her a frightened look and murmured, "Mrs. Mason, how is this possible?""I don't care! Go get the doctor to check everything in the room. I will not allow anyone to hurt my child!" Evelyn yelled in a stern voice as her eyes went crazy.The nurse called the doctor in fear, and the doctor came, checked everything, and said resignedly, "Mrs. Mason, we assure you that everything here is qualified and absolutely free of any harmful substances. You can relax."Eve

    Chapter 1936Evelyn nodded with satisfaction and asked with a smile, "Did Cedrick arrange this for me?"Eason thought to himself, 'Mr. Mason has no time for her.' Yet he smiled, "Of course, Mrs. Mason. If there's nothing else, I'll go back now."Evelyn smiled and nodded, "Go ahead. There are so many nurses here. They can take care of me."Cedrick had arranged the best labor and delivery room for Evelyn. Three nurses worked 24-hour shifts, so she would have someone to serve her at any time.Evelyn walked into the glass corridor, looking out at the sunshine and green grass. Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure."Who's that woman on the bench?"Evelyn's eyes went cold as she frowned and asked the young nurse next to her.The young nurse came over and asked with a puzzled look, "Mrs. Mason, which one do you mean?" "The old woman on the bench."A sneer appeared on Evelyn's lips, and her tone was acerbic.The nurse gave Evelyn a surprised look. "This lady is Mrs. Hensley, who live

    Chapter 1935Cedrick was silent for a moment, counting the time. Indeed, Evelyn's due date was approaching.The smile on his mouth grew colder as he thought about what was going to happen."I'll have Eason pick you up.""I know you're busy. It's okay to have Eason pick me up, but I want to see you as soon as I get back."Evelyn smiled sweetly, not bothering with these details.As long as Cedrick cared about her, it was the same whoever came to pick her up.Evelyn touched her round belly, and her expectant face gradually became worried.'It's said that a sharp belly predicts a son and that a round belly predicts a daughter. My belly is so round. Will I have a daughter?'Meanwhile, Cedrick hung up the phone, casually threw it to the bedside, lay back down, and pulled the soft Catelyn into his arms.Half asleep, Catelyn heard Evelyn speaking arrogantly on the phone and slumped against Cedrick's chest."Evelyn's coming back?"Cedrick nodded slightly, a little impatient.
