Chapter 141

"T—Thank you."Cedrick eyed Catelyn's dress coldly. His expression darkened when he was once again reminded that she came with Edwin, so he tightened his grip around her wrist and said, "Since when have you spellbound Edwin?"Catelyn scowled in pain due to Cedrick's grip. Try as she did, she failed to break free from their tug of war and, instead, ended up even closer to one another."Mister Atherton needed a plus-one, and I happened to have an invitation to this event. We're not what you think we are.""What I 'think', huh?" Cedrick gritted out. "And what is it that I'm thinking?"Catelyn was slightly frustrated at not being able to escape his grip, but the more she panicked, the more she tried to act composed. She extended her hand and brushed her finger past Cedrick's jawline carelessly, saying, "Master Cedrick, if you continue to be so restless with seeing me by Mister Atherton's side, I might get the wrong idea.""What idea is that?"Catelyn chuckled silently as she purpose

Chapter 142

Both Cedrick and Catelyn darkened at Maia's words.Hooker? Paid?Not only was this an insult to Catelyn, but it was also an insult directed at Cedrick. He had never imagined that he would hear such a word coming out of Maia's mouth.Catelyn gritted her teeth as she desperately tried to remain calm. "Yes, I do remember the rules of the Clark family. I won't—""Rules? How dare you even mention that word?!" The anger burnt away the last ounce of composure within Maia, and she screamed in frustration, "Your mother ran away with some guy after giving birth to you, so where did you learn the rules again? I heard that you bore a son out of wedlock, so I'm afraid that you're just like your mom, and any guy would do it for you! How lustful!"Catelyn finally ran out of guilt and patience. She slowly clenched her fists and stared coldly at Maia. "You have no right to make any comment on my mother. If you suspect that something is going on between me and Cedrick, ask him yourself. Why bother

"I'm positive!"Catelyn froze. She had been offended by Maia and words just came flying out right after. If the order she was given were to cause conflicts between two families, she would rather quit.She could always find another job anyway, and she would not starve so long as she had all her limbs.Just as she was about to interfere, Cedrick said, "As you wish. Let's call off the engagement."Silence instantly loomed over them.Maia's smug smile froze at this, her eyes widening in disbelief as she gaped at Cedrick, wondering if she had heard him wrong.'Did he just say...he'd call off the engagement?!'Catelyn, too, glanced at Cedrick and thought to herself, 'H—He's calling off the engagement?'She then gingerly tried to smoothen out the situation but stopped when Cedrick shot her a stern stare.His piercing stare was locked onto Maia as he continued, "You can announce this, and I'll take the blame. You can come up with whatever reason to explain this away, and I'll talk to

Chapter 144

Maia thought it was Cedrick, returning to her. She looked up in surprise, only to see Richard before him. The light in her eyes faded and was replaced by disappointment."Why are you here?""Maia, I...I heard everything." Richard wiped away her tears endearingly like she was the most precious person to him. "Cedrick doesn't even know how to appreciate you, so why should you love him? I love you, and I'll marry you once you end your engagement!""Go away!" Maia clenched onto the fabric on her chest and snapped, "I want Cedrick. I want the position of Missus Mason. Who do you think you are?"She tried to shove Richard away, but he grabbed onto her hand when he caught a whiff of her scent and planted a kiss on the back of her hand. "I'll do anything for you. As long as you're willing to let me, I'll do whatever you want me to!""Don't touch me. Go away!" Frustrated, Maia tried to shove him away, but Richard's kiss landed on her face and dried her tears.Her struggle weakened as she

Chapter 145

"Since the Clarks went bankrupt, Jamie broke it off with Catelyn, so it's no wonder that she hates Missus Mason.""What exactly is going on?"Everyone lowered their voices and discussed as they scanned Catelyn and Lori.Lori's chest heaved and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Come see this, everyone. Catelyn is a sl*t by nature and got pregnant with my son's child when she was just a teenager!"Mister Atherton, you don't know this, but Catelyn has always been great at putting men under her spell. Don't get fooled by how fragile she appears on the outside!"Furious to find out that Catelyn had locked her mother inside the bathroom, Queenie chimed in, "No matter what my mother did, Catelyn, she's old and is your senior. How could you lock her in the bathroom?"Lori and Queenie's words had caught the attention of everyone around them.When Jamie heard the commotion, he glanced over, only to realize that his sister and mother were causing a scene and was instantly embarrassed."Mo

Chapter 146

Catelyn's bottom line was her family. No matter what others have said about her father, Ezekiel would always be the gentle, loving father who gave her the world."Pah!" Lori spat viciously.Not a moment later, Catelyn grabbed one of the wine glasses from the tray next to her and tipped it downward, pouring all the wine onto Lori's heels.Splash!"Gah!" Lori shrieked and jumped backward hysterically. "My heels! Catelyn Clark, you—!"These heels are designed by the most famous designer in Paries, LR, and they'd only produce nine hundred ninety-nine pairs of these! My future daughter-in-law gave this to me as a gift, and it's worth over a million!"Lori's shrieks grabbed the attendees' attention, and they stared at her heels.The high-heeled shoes seemed to be coated in gold, and the heels, in particular, were about 11 centimeters in length. Gold leaves and diamonds decorated the front and back of the laces, and the 'L' logo on the sides of both heels was impressively striking.Th

How could Catelyn possibly compensate for such expensive heels, though?Everyone held their breaths in anticipation.Lori extended her hand to Catelyn and said, "I've apologized. Seeing that you're still junior to me, I won't make this any more difficult than it is for you. Just write me a check worth a million.""A million?" Catelyn chuckled. "Missus Mason, your heels can't be worth over three thousand, yet you're trying to scam a million out of me? How could you even think of this?"Very often than not, the most expensive parts of this type of shoe were the gem and diamonds on it, along with the brand and design."Three thousand? You're just saying this because you don't want to pay me back, right? This pair of heels is worth one million! Go ask Louella if you don't believe me." Lori's features twitched in rage as she pointed at Louella.The others turned their attention to Louella following the direction Lori was pointing at. Louella was not used to the attention, but she none

Chapter 148

Cedrick's words represented authority, and there was not a soul that would doubt Mason Group's jewelry appraiser.The organizer, Jones, beamed. "That's great! It's wonderful that you're willing to help, Mister Mason..." He hastily commanded his men to set up the projector so that everyone could see the appraising process and proof of who was right.Catelyn waited quietly for the appraiser to get online.Soon, the appraiser's face appeared before the enormous screen in the middle of the hall.Lori took off her heels and carefully wiped away the wine on them, before taking them toward the camera smugly. "Kind sir, please inspect these for me to see how much they're worth. Someone dares to accuse me of wearing fake diamonds! I have to set her straight!"On the screen, an awkward expression appeared on the appraiser's face as soon as he saw the heels. He even seemed hesitant to make his comment.Queenie got closer and said, "Go on, then. Are these real or not?"The appraiser remaine

Chapter 149

Lori never expected her son, Jamie would shun her, too."Hang on," came a cold voice that pierced the silence.It was Cedrick, and he was not about to let Lori go that easily.The organizer, Jones turned to look at him in fright."M—Master Cedrick, do you need anything else?"Cedrick's eagle-like eyes pierced through the air and scanned past Catelyn, landing on Lori.One look from him was all it took for Lori to feel as though someone had grabbed her by the throat; her blood ran cold as it became increasingly difficult to breathe. She shivered and was instantly overwhelmed by the urge to leave as soon as possible. However, what Cedrick said next shattered her completely."Missus Mason has disrupted the order of the ball and assaulted a person in public. Isn't it far too casual for you to leave just like this?"Lori turned to face Cedrick without a trace of her earlier smugness, and she had nothing but fear left.Cedrick was the eldest son of the Mason family. Lori, too, could

Chapter 150

Catelyn truly felt like she had been jinxed on this day.She stared at the stain on the fabric on her chest and scowled. Everything just seemed to go wrong altogether!She was about to leave the ball as she had fulfilled what she came to do, only to bump into one of the waitresses, which caused the wine on the waitress' tray to spill and stain her dress.This dress was not even bought with her money; it was Edwin's! It was embarrassing to let the dress end up in such a state.Under the guidance of the waitress, she went to the restroom on the second floor to clean up.'I'm out of luck,' she grumbled internally.As soon as she entered the restroom, she was instantly overwhelmed by a powerful, irritating smell.It was not long, however, when she felt all her strength sapped away from her, and she slowly slid to the ground with her hand still grabbing on the door handle.'Someone set me up!' This was her only thought as she desperately tried to get up.Suddenly, a familiar female
