Chapter 172
Chapter 172 Warmth spread throughout Catelyn’s heart when she heard George’s words. “Thank you,”
she said, “and don’t worry about it. I’ll go to the construction siteter, and I’ll update you about specific
issues. Is that alright?”
“Of course, as long as you don’t mind the trouble,” replied George. Their phone call ended soon after, but
the moment it did, Catelyn’s mind was clouded with her fight with Jamie.
He and his mother had piled up all the me for Queenie’s defilement on her. Moreover, they did not
really want custody of Miles-they just wanted to make her suffer! Lori had even said that she would
torture Miles every day after she got custody of him. She would make him kneel in front of everyone from
the Mason family to atone for his sins. Catelyn could not sit still. Miles was her son, her flesh and blood.
She would not allow him to be taken away and bullied like this!
Lawyer…
Speaking of which, finding a reliablewyer to fight thiswsuit would be the most important thing to do.
With that, Catelyn searched the inte for relevantwyers. One of thewyers named Benjamin
Anderson got Catelyn’s attention. Apparently, he was a professional at civil litigation. It was also stated
that he had won a hundred cases, not losing a single one. His fee, however, was a whopping six-figure
amount for hire! Catelyn clenched her fists tightly.
She had never been decisive…but she was determined that no matter what, she had to protect Miles.

However, she was disqualified from the Chandier Jewelry Design Competition. She could have won
handsome prize money from it, too. If the situation worsened and Jamie decided to start awsuit with
Catelyn within these few days, she would need the money urgently. Even if she proved that she did not
giarize, it would not be enough to save herself.
What could she do?
Could she approach Cedrick for financial aid?
That afternoon, at George’s request, Catelyn went to Bubsville Vi to supervise the construction.
Coincidentally, Albert had given Catelyn a new order, saying that there was a w in the design of the
garden and it did not meet the requirements, so Catelyn had to tear it down and redo it.
As Catelyn finished modifying the design drawings, she went over to the Mason Group’s headquarters.
Mason Group and Chandier Jewelry were in the same business district in town. The towering structure of
thepany buildings cut through the clouds majestically, giving the public eye an impression of a high
level of prosperity and power.
There were even two knight statues in the waiting room on the first floor. It was said that they were
antiques specially brought back by Old Master Mason, which had the effect of bringing in good wealth to
thepany. Catelyn walked up to the front desk and asked politely, “Hello, I’m Catelyn, the designer in
charge of Bubsville Vi. I’m looking for Master Cedrick.” The receptionist gave Catelyn an entire once-
over, looking alert and vignt. “Hello, Miss rk. Do you have an appointment?”
Everyone in thepany knew that Cedrick had been in a very bad mood recently. Sry bonuses of
several departments have been deducted, so the receptionist could not just let any strangers up to see
him.
With a smile, Catelyn exined lightly, “There is no appointment, but Master Cedrick has asked me to
finish the design and send it to him immediately.”
The receptionist snorted, seemingly losing her respect for Catelyn. “Give me the design, and I’ll have the
secretary’s office to pass it on for you.” Catelyn hesitated, not moving from her spot. The receptionist
nced at her several times. “Any other questions?” “Can’t I give it to him myself?” Catelyn asked.
“Miss, I can’t let you go up without an appointment.” With that said, the receptionist even called the
security guard and instructed him to keep an eye on Catelyn.
Cedrick had apanied Maia to a business event, and countlessdies had the opportunity to meet
him there. Ever since then, there have been many women who pretended to have appointments with
Cedrick, desperately doing anything they can to get close to him.
