Chapter 140


    Chapter 140 Realizing that Catelyn had heard them bad-mouthing her the whole while, Loue pulled the


    hem of Queenie’s dress as they hurriedly left the washroom.


    However, Lori remained.


    In the silent washroom, she looked at Catelyn arrogantly, her face full of disgust. “So you’ve heard what


    we’ve said. It’s true. We were talking bad about you. What are you going to do about it?”


    Catelyn felt angry at first, but she had the urge tough as she heard Lori’s words.


    She was suddenly feeling so d that she did not marry Jamie and that Miles would not have to live a


    life with such a terrible grandma. In this case, indifference and ignorance were the most effective


    methods against these absurd rumors.


    Catelyn went to the sink to wash her hands, minding her own business as if Lori was not even there.

    Lori yelled even more angrily when she saw Catelyn ignoring her. “Edwin would never set his eyes on


    you! He has so many women around, and I bet he will forget about you very soon.” Catelyn washed her


    hands slowly. “I’m sure you remembered that there is a certain someone that Edwin would not even look


    in the eye?”


    Lori suddenly thought of Queenie. Queenie really liked Edwin. However, not even the most delicate


    makeup could hide her wrinkled, twisted-looking face. “Catelyn, stop it with your nonsense! I’ll tell Edwin


    later about your true colors, and we’ll see if he would still even care about you!”


    Catelyn’s eyes turned cold. She did not care about all the humiliation and name-calling. However, she


    would not allow Miles to be treated so unfairly.


    Catelyn walked out of the washroom quickly and happened to see a mop in the corner. Her lips curled up


    slyly. She quickly locked the door from outside and ced the mop at the door handle. Then, she took a


    maintenance sign and put it a few meters away from the door.


    Catelyn pped her hands gracefully. ‘Try getting out now,’ she thought. Unexpectedly, as soon as


    Catelyn turned around, she saw a tall man leaningzily on the wall a meter away.


    Cedrick was holding a cigarette in his hand, and his dark eyes fixed their gaze on her…


    “Are you obsessed with Edwin?” Cedrick’s words were cold and impactful, and they struck like a heavy


    blow on Catelyn’s chest. She widened her eyes in shock, and her throat tightened. Cedrick heard


    everything! Did he witness what she had just done as well?


    Thinking of Lori in the washroom, Catelyn quickly pointed to the balcony not far away.” Cedrick, let’s talk


    over there,” she said, trying to get him away from their current spot.


    Compared to the hustle and bustle of the insides, the balcony was extremely quiet. The fountain pool


    downstairs was shimmering, reflecting on the curtains of the balcony dreamily.


    Catelyn was walking very fast. She did not notice the water stains and slipped. Catelyn, wearing heals,


    lost her bnce and staggered to the side. She subconsciously wanted to grab the curtain as she fell…


    Cedrick frowned and immediately stepped forward and grabbed her wrist. As he grabbed her mid-fall,


    Catelynnded on one leg and could barely stand for the moment.
