the situation.

supplier, she promised that if the situation was not resolved within two weeks, she was willing to pay an extra 10
percent of the liquidated damages.

Cedrick ordered Charles to look further into Quinn's background before going into the bathroom for a shower. By
the time he returned to the master bedroom, the bed was still empty, so he headed to the study.
He was usually the one who used the room most of the time as Catelyn rarely took her work back home. To his
surprise, he opened the door to the room and found a slim figure deeply asleep in front of a laptop. Her mouth was
slightly open as she was snoring quietly, yet she still looked so adorable that he felt the urge to nibble on her cheek.
Cedrick chuckled at the fact that Catelyn was even more dedicated than him when it came to work.
He tiptoed over to her and brushed his finger across her cheek.

daughter for him. However, whenever he saw how hardworking she was, he realized he could not take away her

Cedrick's expression darkened.

He was still slightly dazed from having just woken up; he propped his head on one arm and lazily admired Catelyn's
alluring figure from afar.
She made it a habit to exercise and would go to the clubhouse with Joanne for yoga every Wednesday, Friday, and
Sunday. Even if she had already given birth to two children, there was no extra weight around her waist, and the
firm muscles hidden under her fair skin made her look energetic and lively, she did not have any stretch marks on
her either, so if she put up a ponytail, no one would suspect if she claimed to be a fresh graduate.
"Did I wake you?" Catelyn was a little shy, but because she was in a hurry, she continued to change in front of him.
"It's still early, so you should go back to sleep. I'll set up the alarm for you."
Worried that she might forget about it as she got ready, she changed into her underwear with one hand and
reached out to grab the alarm clock on the nightstand with another.
