Chapter 311
Lola paused for a brief moment before she added, “Or is it because you’re still bitter about the fact that I
kicked you out of the competition, and you’re just doing this now so that my grandmother would hate
me?”
Catelyn was at a complete loss for words when she heard this. Thankfully, she had swallowed the water
in her mouth, or she might have spat it out.
Lola was a downright shameless woman. Her sad, innocent demeanor made her look like she was the
victim there.
“Are you brainless or something? Cat’s not crazy; she’d never do anything like that!” growled Joanne
through gritted teeth, furious on Catelyn’s behalf. “Not only did she lose the competition, but she had to
be admitted to the hospital, too! What did she gain from any of these?! You’re such a heartless woman!”
Lola bit her lip down and muttered, “Miss Winters, I know you’re close to Miss Catelyn, but sometimes,
it’s hard to tell what a person’s real intentions are.”
Joanne’s eyes reddened as she cursed at Lola.

What a treacherous woman! Catelyn had been admitted to the hospital, yet Lola had the gall to come
and provoke her!
Catelyn, on the other hand, was amused as she watched Joanne’s behavior and reaction.
Lola, upon hearing Joanne’s words toward her, innocently lamented, “I’m just trying to give you solid
advice. Why are you cussing at me?”
“So what if I cussed at you? I’d hit you, too!” Joanne’s face twisted in anger as she picked up the knife
next to the fruits and pointed it at Lola. “You’re not welcome here. Get out now, or I’ll slice your face up!”
“Y–You guys… This is ridiculous!”
Lola acted as if she had been slandered and blamed for the most heinous crime and turned, ready to flee
the room.
However, she froze the moment she turned.
Cedrick and Edwin were standing outside of the room in the corridor.
A range of emotions appeared on their faces, but it was evident how they knew what went down in
Catelyn’s ward.
Lola’s pupils dilated upon seeing the two men standing outside.
She pretended to sniffle as a bead of tear rolled down her cheek. “It seems that Miss Catelyn is still
angry at me,” she remarked feebly. “I should go now… Take care.”
Cedrick, however, stepped forward and stood right in front of Lola to stop her from leaving, to which Lola
looked up nervously at him. “What…are you doing, Master Cedrick?” she asked. “That thing in your bag;
give it to me now,” snapped Cedrick, his tone so cold that Lola felt

like she had been put in an invisible chokehold, and she visibly turned pale.
‘That thing!?
What did he mean by that?
The confused Catelyn widened her eyes and looked at the pair.

Cedrick aside and walk past him. All she wanted was to disappear at that moment.
Just as Lola’s hand touched his shirt, Cedrick grabbed her forearm and swung away, causing her
handbag-along with its contents-to fall to the floor in the process. Aside from the regular items a woman
would carry in her bag, her smartphone that was shown to be recording slipped out of the bag as well.
Catelyn realized what was happening.
This explained why Lola came all the way to victimize herself…
She did it all on purpose! Lola panicked and freed herself from Cedrick, quickly squatting to pick up her
belongings. Just as she was about to reach for her phone, a pair of squeaky clean leather shoes stepped
on the back of her hand.
Her palm was pressed firmly onto her hard, bulky phone, and immense pain shot up her entire arm.
“Agh! It…hurts! Let go!” Lola looked at Edwin with tears in her eyes as she begged, “Edwin, you’re…
stepping on my hand!”. Edwin stared down at her from above and smirked in disdain.
