Chapter 218
Chapter 218 Cedrick, Benjamin, and Catelyn looked elegant in their suits and dress respectively, so
much so that they attracted the attention of many guests in the hall along the way. Catelyn simply took off
her hair tie and let her hair down and simted a calmer, moreposed version of herself.
They were walking toward the elevator on the second floor when they heard a waiter apologetically
exining to a middle-aged woman in a purple dress, “Miss Coleman, I’m truly sorry. The private room
where you often dine in has been reserved by another gentleman. Can I arrange another room for you?”
“That’s fine. It’s also my fault that I didn’t call ahead to make an appointment,” said the woman with a soft
voice, without any hint of anger. The waiter immediately breathed a sigh of relief. “Thank you for your
understanding, Miss Coleman. Please,e this way!”
“Aunt Janice?” Cedrick could recognize the purple dress even from a distance. It was a gift for herst
year.
Janice heard the familiar voice and turned her head slowly. The smile on the corner of her mouth had not
been drawn to the fullest the moment she saw Catelyn on Cedrick’s side, both holding hands.
“Aunt Janice,” greeted Benjamin. He knew her personally. “Hello Miss Coleman,” said Catelyn. She felt
awkward holding hands with Cedrick. She tried to withdraw her hand, but he was holding it too tightly!
Instead, with Janice around, Cedrick seemed to grip her hand even harder as if he was trying to show
her deliberately.
“Ah, it seems that Miss Coleman and Master Cedrick know each other,” said the waiter in a
Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Cedrick. Why don’t…you all share the room and dine together?”
Janice maintained a polite smile, her eyes slowly moving up along the sped hands of the two and
eventuallynding on Catelyn’s face. “Miss rk, do you mind?”
“Of course not!” Catelyn hurriedly responded with a smile. Janice was Cedrick’s aunt, and they shared a
close bond. How could she refuse? Benjamin noticed the interaction between Janice and Catelyn, and
he simply gave Cedrick a wink and left quietly.
Catelyn’sposure quickly dissipated. She would much rather be with Benjamin than with Janice!
The private room on the second floor was one of Janice’s favorite ces to dine. She enjoyed the
transparentyout and the blooming flowers around the room. There was also a faint fragrant smell in the
atmosphere.

Janice looked at Catelyn calmly. This was the scheming girl, she thought. She had only not seen her for
a few days, and she had already gotten out with Cedrick publicly. Janice remembered Catelyn only being
Cedrick’s employee back then. “Kitty’… Can I call you that?” asked Janice as she handed a teacup to
Catelyn with a smile. “Yes, of course! As long as you don’t dislike it,” said Catelyn tteringly. She
hurriedly got up and took the teapot and cup from Janice. “This teapot is quite heavy. Let me take it for
you.” Janice let go of the teapot as Catelyn took it over.
Janice looked at Catelyn as she was pouring tea. The windbreaker she was wearing was thetest
fashion style from Bulberry, which had just arrived on the shelves of Sapphire City in the past few days.
The brand of her inner lining could not be seen, but the soft texture of the fabric gave the impression that
it must be something of high value.
Catelyn’s whole outfit may not be very expensive, butpared to the night when Janice first saw her
when she was wearing cheap goods, she looked so much different! “Don’t call me Miss Coleman; just
call me Aunt Janice.”
“Alright, Aunt Janice,” said Catelyn.
“Ceddy, you should’ve received a notice by now. Grandpa Mason is asking that you bring Mai back to the
house to talk about the marriage. Perhaps it’s time for you to give him an exnation,” said Janice softly
as she looked at Cedrick.
