Chapter 276
Catelyn tried to imagine it.
Edwin had been dissolute for years. He had a reputable family background, was generous, and good-
looking. Many women must have clung to him voluntarily.
Edwin wanted to reject the girl, but she still came onto him anyway. Unfortunately, Joanne had
misunderstood Edwin to be the bad guy in the scenario.
The scene was too perfect. Catelyn ceased her imagination. “What did your manager say about it?”
Catelyn knew that Joanne was always obedient to her manager, and was a little worried about it. Joanne
smiled and waved her hand dismissively. “No worries, I can handle this.”
That night, even though Joanne was back, Catelyn could not sleep well, and it baffled her.
The next morning, Ollie video-called her from Mason Estate.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJanice had sent him to the Estate by Saturday night and had video-called Catelyn from time to time to
inform her of his whereabouts.
He would tell her about his breakfast, sometimes about the fun he had at his grandmother’s, and he
would then ask when she would come to the estate again. All the while, Catelyn responded patiently to
him.
It was an adorable conversation between the mother and the son.
Nonetheless, Ollie grew anxious. He had waited for Catelyn to bring up anything about his father, yet she
never did.
He did, however, overhear the maids gossiping this morning that another woman was in his father’s bed
last night.
Catelyn was at Ocean Park Residence last night, so it was not her. “Mommy, Father wasn’t home last
night,” Ollie deliberately diverted the conversation to that topic.
Catelyn’s eyelid pulsed as though it was an omen.
She maintained a casual tone as she nonchalantly replied, “Isn’t he always busy? Maybe he just slept
overnight in the office.” Ollie was dead worried. Cedrick had brought Catelyn back to the Estate before,
and that meant he was serious about her. Why, then, did she say nothing when she knew that Cedrick
was not home at all last night?
“I heard from Uncle Eason that he spent the night at the Barricade Club, and there was a woman in his
bed.” Catelyn should be showing some signs of concern at this. Lola’s pretty face flashed before
Catelyn’s eyes as she heard this.
She had told Lola before that Cedrick used to frequent the Barricade Club. However, Lola had never
taken any action so far…
Was the woman Lola after all?
Catelyn could not resist but asked, “Oh? What did your father do, then?” Ollie shook his head and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmblinked innocently. “I have no idea. Just give him a call, Mommy, and you’ll know about it.”
In truth, Ollie knew it all, but he did not just want to answer everything for her. He wanted her to call
Cedrick He was relentlessly creating opportunities for them both!
Catelyn’s gaze fixated on the call log.
She hesitated to call Cedrick For the longest time, Cedrick had given Lola the cold shoulder. What if he
just could not resist her this time? Catelyn gnawed on her lower lip. Even if anything happened between
Lola and Cedrick, it had nothing to do with her. She was only his girlfriend in title.
Catelyn decided not to meddle with this anymore. As long as it did not involve her son, she would not
care so much.
However, when she exited the call log, her finger accidentally slid across Cedrick’s name.
Веер!
She accidentally dialed Cedrick’s contact number. Just when she wanted to hang up, she heard a man’s
hoarse voice from the speaker. “Yes?”
