Chapter 104
The incident of Ollie falling down the stairs had haunted Catelyn for a long while..
Catelyn longed to see the boy.
Sure, she and Cedrick had a complicated… ‘relationship’ before, but since he was with that female star, everything should have washed out already, no?
With that thought in mind, Catelyn bought a bunch of carnations and folded a large box of paper clovers, intending to give it to Ollie as a gift in return.
She prayed he would like it. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Not knowing which hospital Ollie was in, Catelyn first contacted Albert.
The long asphalt road was lined with tall trees on both sides of the curbs, and at the end of it erected a Europeian-style villa with a guard standing by the entrance of a majestic carved iron gate.
It was only after Catelyn entered Mason Villa that she realized that Ollie did not break his leg at all, and it was a lie used to deceive Cedrick.
Catelyn was rendered speechless. After all, Ollie did not look like the type to lie.
“Miss Clark, please have a seat. Master Cedrick took the young master out for some exercise, and he should be back in a while,” said Albert as he instructed the servant to serve Catelyn tea.
Since Ollie was fine, Catelyn did not want to stay any longer. She handed the carnation and paper clovers to Albert, requesting them to be given to Ollie.
“I’ll see Ollie another day. Thank you for your hospitality,” said Catelyn. “Miss Clark, are you leaving already?” asked Albert.
He did not like Catelyn very much at first, feeling that she was deliberately approaching Ollie with a certain intent. As he got to know her better, he realized she was, in fact, sincere to Ollie. Of course, the young master liked her very much as well.
Therefore, Albert wanted Catelyn to stay a little longer.
Catelyn raised her lips and politely declined, saying, “My son will be out of school in a while.”
Albert nodded as Catelyn left.
Catelyn, however, did not expect to see Maia the moment she walked to the gates, just getting out of the car.
Maia strutted forward in her high heels, carrying two gift boxes with her. A faint smile adorned her face.
That smile of hers disappeared in an instant when she saw Catelyn.
The two looked at each other, and neither of the spoke for a while.
“Catelyn?” Maia said as she walked over, throwing the two gift boxes onto the sofa. “Why are you here?”
“I… I’m the designer of Ollie’s villa. I heard that he fell and was injured, so I came by for a visit,
“replied Catelyn.
“Little Ollie fell and got hurt? Why didn’t I know about this?” asked Maia, feeling strange when she heard this.
She glanced at a cup of hot tea on the coffee table. Although Albert was just a housekeeper, he had been with the Mason Family for decades and had a high status himself.
He must have valued Catelyn when he served her tea personally.
Maia did not know what to think. She looked at Catelyn in gradual disgust as if she was some kind of dirt.
“I heard that you had a miserable life after Jamie dumped you. Look how low you’ve fallen,” sneered Maia.
Catelyn could not react to Maia’s words for a while.
“You do look somewhat similar to me, but Cedrick isn’t the kind of person you think. If you’re thinking of hooking up with him, you should just give up!” sneered Maia. “Since we’re both Clarks, though, let’s talk. How much do you want?”
Catelyn thought for a moment. Did Maia think she was deliberately seducing Cedrick? “Please let me go, I’m leaving,” asserted Catelyn, “Oh? Where are you going? Are you going to toy around with Cedrick again?” said Maia as she narrowed her slightly raised eyes. “I’ve seen a lot of women like you, and you’ll only end up making him feel disgusted!”
