Chapter 137 “Are you really not interested in being an artist under me? You’ll definitely succeed with your piano skills…” said Edwin. He really wanted to win Catelyn over. Catelyn chuckled lightly. “Oh, Edwin, stop it.” All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
Playing the piano was just a personal hobby, and she never thought of entering the entertainment industry. “I’m serious,” Edwin emphasized. Catelyn laughed and replied jokingly, “So am I.” Edwin sighed disappointedly. “Okay, since you’ve insisted, then I won’t force you…” Then, the two exchanged phone numbers. Edwin took Catelyn’s hand and spun her around gracefully as the music reached its climax. Suddenly, Edwin caught a glimpse of Cedrick and Maia beside him. He saw Cedrick’s gloomy expression. Was he jealous? Edwin was feeling amused as he thought about it. He narrowed his eyes slightly. Without saying a word, he landed his palm on Catelyn’s back and pushed her out without warning. “Ced, let’s swap partners!” said Edwin. Catelyn widened her eyes in horror. Was Edwin going crazy? In the next moment, she stumbled into a spacious and warm embrace. “Umm…” muttered Catelyn, smelling the familiar scent of aftershave. “Hold me tight,” Cedrick’s deep voice came from above her head. He firmly embraced Catelyn in his arms with a cold expression. Catelyn raised her eyes in astonishment and met Cedrick’s eyes. She could almost see herself in his dark pupils as if she was the only one left in his eyes. Catelyn felt embarrassed. Fortunately for her, the lighting and her make-up managed to hide her blush.
Simultaneously, Maia was pushed to Edwin, replacing Catelyn as his dance partner. Maia was thrown into Edwin’s arms, and he quickly clasped her waist. “Be careful, Ms. Clark.” Edwin smiled fluently, his wicked facial features looking playful. “Try not to fall, there are many people watching…” Maia was so furious that she was about to lose her elegance.
She finally managed to get close to Cedric in public, but Edwin… How preposterous! The music was only halfway through, and she could not just leave the stage mid-dance.
“Mr. Atherton, what do you mean?” Maia asked angrily, and she was burning with anger. “Didn’t you realize? You are such a beautiful and graceful woman. I want to dance with you…” “Isn’t Catelyn your partner?”
Maia turned her head and glanced hatefully at Catelyn. Edwin’s eyes were glinting. He smiled slyly and said, “What’s wrong with changing partners?” Maia was speechless, and she had no choice but to dance with him. The girls who were talking just now looked at them in amazement. “Look, Edwin and Cedrick have exchanged partners!” “Everyone knows that they both grew up together. They got along so well that they could even share the same pair of pants! Don’t tell me they both now fell for the same woman?” “Why do I feel that Catelyn and Master Cedrick are more compatible?” “Stop talking nonsense. Catelyn is broke! How could she have the courage to stand by Master Cedrick’s side?”
“Edwin must have fallen in love with Maia, so he deliberately pushed Catelyn away. Everyone knows that he changes his girlfriend faster than changing clothes…” Catelyn tried to ignore all the gossip. He and Catelyn moved in unison. Lastly, they both ended the dance with Cedrick holding Catelyn’s waist.
She leaned her body back, bending it into a perfect arc. Catelyn stared at Cedrick’s deep eyes, her heart thumping faster than ever.
