Chapter 238


    Chapter 238 The pants were in a simr shade of blue. It was minimalistic but ssy. “Here, try this. This


    is something different from what you usually wear. I suppose it will make you look younger.” Cedrick’s


    eyes scanned the suit and snickered lightly.


    Makes him look younger? Did he look old in the first ce? He was only a few years older than Jamie!


    Nine in the morning, on the hilltop near the mansion, a ck Mercedis drove down the road and headed


    to the humongous premises. Unlike the modern design, the mansion retained the vintage architecture


    from thest century, something like the Bauhaus house architecture. The building was squarish, and


    there were guards on shifts at the entrance. Right above the entrance was a gold te spelling out


    Mason Chateau.


    One of the four grandest families in Sapphire City, the chateau stood firm on its solid ground, having


    braved through decades of glory and history. The butler had long been waiting at the front door. He was


    a sixty-year-old man with silvery white hair, and he looked especially amiable whenever he smiled.


    Everyone called him Uncle Ford affectionately.


    Cedrick parked his car across thewn in front of the mansion.


    He came out of the front seat, and his ring suit shed at Uncle Ford. He had not seen Cedrick in


    such bright colors in a long time. “Master Cedrick, wee home. Grandpa Mason is waiting for you in


    the hall.” Uncle Ford smiled and walked forward and instructed the servant to park the car in the parking


    bay. Cedrick tossed his keys to the servant and took one nce at the parking bay.


    The parking lot was an outdoor one, with numerous luxurious cars parked casually within.


    The staff car park was loosely filled with a few of the staff’s cars.


    Cedrick raised his brows and asked, “Where is Maia?”


    “The rk family calledst night to inform us that Miss rk had unfortunately fallen ill. She was sent to


    the Emergency Department, and the doctor instructed her not to move around. So she could not make it


    today. However, Mister and Missus rk are here.” Uncle Ford regretted it a little. It was a rare asion


    to have both families together to discuss


    the matter openly. However, it was a shame that Maia, one of the key people on the issue, fell sick.


    Cedrick’s lips curved up in an iprehensible smile.


    Ill?


    She was afraid that he had heard something that he should not have heard and did not dare to show up


    at the Chateau anymore.


    “No worries, as long as the rk family is present.”

    Inside the yard, the air was fresh, filled with faint scents of tea. Grandpa Mason was passionate about


    tea, and he would hand brew tea for himself every now and then.


    Even though the Chateau retained most of its ancient architecture, the interior was decoratedvishly


    with Renaissance Europaen designs. A chandelier hung from the ceiling right in the middle, shining


    bright.


    There were two cushioned seats at one end of the hall, lined up side by side.


    Adjacent to which were the guest seats, covered in ck leather.


    Mister and Missus rk were initially having a conversation with Grandpa Mason when they heard the


    servant informing Cedrick’s arrival. Their eyes revealed silent rage.


    Last afternoon, after Maia came back from walking her dog, she locked herself in the room and never


    said a word.


    Missus rk asked the servant and found out that Maia bumped into Cedrick and Catelyn at the mall…
