Chapter 341

Why else would Catelyn remain in the office to work overtime?Even if she did not have enough time to compare the data, she could have taken them home to analyze. The only thing she could take away from the situation was that the data analysis had been saved and that she would not have to start over again the next day.Cedrick looked at her intently before calling Charles. Though the power went out, Cedrick's phone was fully charged, and he managed to reach Charles shortly after.It was late at night, and Charles had not been expecting a phone call from Cedrick, so there was a drawl to his voice. "Hello? Master Cedrick?"Cedrick cut to the chase and asked, "Who was the one who notified everyone about the upgrade in the office's security system?""It may have been the admin department. I haven't paid much attention to that." Charles slowly began to snap out from his drowsy state. It was a quiet night, and even though Cedrick's phone was not on speaker, Catelyn could hear faint shuf

Charles arrived shortly within half an hour after his phone call with Cedrick, followed by the staff in the security department.When the security department employees saw Catelyn with Cedrick and noticed that she had Cedrick's jacket, everyone gaped at the sight.Since the entire building was still in progress with a security upgrade, they could not open the electronic lock until the upgrade was completed.Cedrick glanced at Catelyn before he gave them the order to destroy the lock on the door. The process of breaking the lock was quick and only took a few minutes, but the entire door would need to be reinstalled the next day.When Catelyn heard the sound of the lock being disassembled outside, she was overcome by a bad premonition that this would trigger waves of gossip in the office tomorrow.However, as Cedrick had already given the order, she could not stop them in any way.Once they exited the building, Cedrick took Catelyn to a restaurant right away. He had noticed her sto

"Jennifer, I took Catelyn out for dinner the day before yesterday, and I can stand witness to prove that she didn't see any notice. I've been working with her for some time now, so I believe that she's not the social-climbing woman you painted her to be."Catelyn and Jennifer looked over and saw George walking toward them.After readjusting himself yesterday, he appeared slightly more energized than before, but the complicated look in his eyes remained when he looked at Catelyn.Catelyn had not expected George to be in their office. Though they belonged to the same department, not everyone shared the same office.George's office was two doors next to Catelyn's office, which meant that there was a distance in between.He quickly made his way when he overheard someone saying that Jennifer was arguing with Catelyn, and true enough, he immediately heard Jennifer accusing Catelyn of scheming as soon as he arrived.Jennifer had been secretly in love with George and beamed when she saw

When Cedrick appeared, every employee in the office stopped what they were doing and held their breaths as they looked over gingerly.Cedrick remained outside and did not step into the office. "I don't think I've heard enough. Why don't you keep the drama going?"Everyone held their breaths as chills ran down their spines.Sensing that something was wrong, Jennifer hurried toward Cedrick in hopes to explain herself. "Master Cedrick, it's not what you think! There's some issue with my subordinate's work, and I just wanted to educate her about it. Mister Graham here might have seen it differently, and that's why we had a little argument. We're usually very close friends!"George froze, intimidated by Cedrick's sudden appearance. Meanwhile, Catelyn frantically pulled her hand away from George's."Master Cedrick, it's my fault for interrupting the others' work." After a brief silence, George bowed and apologized to Cedrick sincerely.However, Cedrick had not spared him a single glanc

Winnie's tone was gentle, but Catelyn could not decide what she meant with her question. "I'm fine. The power just went off, and we got stuck because the electronic lock wouldn't open. I'm alright now.""That's good. Mister Mason seems to trust you, so work hard," remarked Winnie before walking off.Catelyn sighed a long breath of relief after Winnie was gone.Noticing how nervous she had been, George consoled her, "You're new here, but our director has always been like that. She might seem difficult to please, but she's actually very nice. Don't feel pressured, and just focus on your own tasks."Catelyn nodded with a smile. "I will."'Seemingly hard to please? Well, I'm just an employee here. I won't actually have to report directly to the Director, so whatever,' mused Catelyn to herself.Once everyone left, the office returned to silence. Perhaps the punishment Cedrick had given was far too severe, no one else dared to mention the event of the night before again.Catelyn, mean

When Catelyn returned home that night, Joanne comforted her while munching on potato chips. "Don't overthink this; it's not like everyone would return your kindness. Besides, you're both in the same position of the same firm, so there's bound to be a sense of competition!"Catelyn watched as her mouth opened and closed. She reached out to grab the bag of chips before securing it within her arms and starting munching on the chips as well."I knew there would be competition, but we've just entered the company, right? I didn't think I'd come across as a threat to her at present."The two watched television in the living room for a while when Miles suddenly trotted over with Catelyn's phone in his hand to show her something. "Mommy, there is a three-million transaction to your bank.""Three million?" Catelyn studied her son in confusion.Where did that money come from? Granny Atherton had offered her one million as the price of winning the competition organized by Chandier Jewelry, bu

In the end, Catelyn rejected George's invitation. [I wish you all the best in the future.]The screen on her phone did not light up again for a long time after that, and she had thought that George had finally gained clarity on the situation, but the phone buzzed again after a while.[I mean everything I said to you before. If you still haven't found anyone by the time I come back, consider me, will you?]She could almost picture the sincere and shy expression on George when he typed the message. She knew that he did not volunteer to go to Europae, at least not in the present.During lunchtime, everyone headed to Mason Group's canteen for employees. Catelyn did not have much of an appetite and thus placed down her spoon and fork after just a few bites.Concerned, Samantha asked, "Catelyn, why are you eating so little?""My stomach feels a bit uncomfortable lately, so I'm already full," she answered before tossing the utensils back into the basket that collected used cutleries.S

Catelyn hesitated from entering the office, but Cedrick had spotted her and thus called out to her, "What are you doing out there?"Catelyn stepped inside with resignation and handed the documents to Cedrick for his signature. Cedrick tossed them aside and asked, "You haven't had your lunch?""Well..." Catelyn nodded, before shaking her head again. "I did, but I didn't eat much, so I finished rather quickly."I…want to ask if you were the one who gave the order to send George to Europae."Cedrick poured himself a cup of coffee and took a sip. "Why haven't you eaten much?"Catelyn scowled. "I'm talking about George right now.""So am I."Cedrick set his cup down and stared at her intently. Her reflection filled his eyes as he stood, and the office instantly appeared less spacious with his towering figure. "You used to have George around, and with him now gone, you've lost your appetite for food and simply couldn't wait to come and plead for him?"He studied her expression withou

Time flew by swiftly, and Catelyn never had the chance to talk to Cedrick after what happened in his office.The day George boarded the flight leaving Sapphire City, she received a call from Janice.Janice said that she was going to Ringo Park for a movie with Ollie and wanted to invite Catelyn along.It had been days since Catelyn had last seen Ollie, and though she informed Miles about the plans of their grand escape, she had not informed Ollie about it.She dabbed some light makeup onto her face before she headed out to meet Janice and Ollie.Perhaps it was because Janice was accidentally introduced into the entertainment business when she was younger that she enjoyed movies and would often go to theaters in Sapphire City whenever she had time.Ringo Park was a famous green building in Sapphire City. Surrounded by gardens, the area was decorated with flowers and plants that grew dense during summer. There were lanterns on the edges of the roof, which added a touch of festive c

Cedrick, standing in a distance, pursed his lips as he shot Catelyn an icy glare.Worried that he would misunderstand the situation, Catelyn hastily stepped away from the man's arms and smiled sheepishly.Cedrick strode toward them while Catelyn met him halfway. She had no idea why he did not reply to her message the day before, but she was willing to let it pass since he sent her lilies.To her bewilderment, he abruptly pulled her into his arms when they were half a meter away from one another. The sheer strength in the motion placed Catelyn in an illusion that her lungs were pressed together, and she struggled to catch her breath.Catelyn gazed up at Cedrick in shock, not knowing what possessed him.The next instant, Cedrick glanced at the man standing across him casually and uttered jokingly, "Nine, I might just get angry if you keep staring at my woman like that."David tore his eyes off Catelyn expressionlessly. "I haven't had the chance to congratulate you on finding a new
