    Chapter 344


    When Cedrick appeared, every employee in the office stopped what they were doing and held their


    breaths as they looked over gingerly.


    Cedrick remained outside and did not step into the office. “I don’t think I’ve heard enough. Why don’t you


    keep the drama going?”

    Everyone held their breaths as chills ran down their spines.


    Sensing that something was wrong, Jennifer hurried toward Cedrick in hopes to exin herself. “Master


    Cedrick, it’s not what you think! There’s some issue with my subordinate’s work, and I just wanted to


    educate her about it. Mister Graham here might have seen it differently, and that’s why we had a little


    argument. We’re usually very close friends!”


    George froze, intimidated by Cedrick’s sudden appearance. Meanwhile, Catelyn frantically pulled her


    hand away from George’s.


    “Master Cedrick, it’s my fault for interrupting the others’ work.” After a brief silence, George bowed and


    apologized to Cedrick sincerely.


    However, Cedrick had not spared him a single nce and, instead, turned to look at Winnie. Winnie was


    about a year or two older than Catelyn and appeared dominating with her long hair tied up, sporting the


    professional outfit and heels she was wearing. Without a doubt, she was a standard beauty who had a


    small face and pouty lips with just a touch of valiance.


    “Winnie.”


    “Yes, Mister Mason?” Winnie would address Cedrick as ‘Mister Mason’ whenever they were in the office


    as that would be inore appropriate and would effectively avoid being the subjects of gossiping as well.


    Cedrick parted his lips and, without a moment of hesitation, ordered, “Jennifer Monroe has disrupted the


    order in the office by bringing her personal emotions into work and framing another employee. Give her a


    six-month worth of sry and fire her.”


    Winnie’s eyes widened with shock. She knew that Cedrick would be upset, but she had not imagined that


    he would fire Jennifer right away!


    “Noted, I’ll notify the human resource department,” answered Winnie immediately.


    Chills ran down Jennifer’s spine as coldness took over her entire body. “I’m sorry, Master Cedrick! I won’t


    do this ever again! Please give me another chance…” she pleaded with quivering lips.


    He ignored her and nced at Catelyn before leaving.


    All strength was drained from Jennifer as she turned to Winnie for help. She tugged at the hem of


    Winnie’s clothes weakly and begged, “Director, I’ve been working for you for years, and I’ve done so


    much for you! Please help me talk to Master Cedrick. I have a mother who’s sick in bed, and I can’t


    afford to lose this job!”


    Winnie narrowed her eyes and helped Jennifer up. “Have you done anything ‘for’ me?”


    Her hands were ice-cold, and Jennifer shivered to the touch.


    “Miss Monroe, I’ll write you a rmendation letter to one of the best architectural firms in the country.


    I’ll also inform the human resource department topensate you with a whole year’s worth of your


    sry. You should know that once Mister Mason makes up his mind, no one can change it.”


    Losing all strength once again, Jennifer copsed onto the ground. Winnie did not make an effort to help


    her up again and turned to study Catelyn intently instead. “Catelyn rk, right?”


    One nce was all it took for Catelyn to be overwhelmed by the illusion that she had been targeted by a


    predator. She felt wary, but as Winnie was Cedrick’s cousin and the design director of the firm, Catelyn


    responded with a respectful smile. “Hello, Director.” “I heard that you were stuck in the office with Mister


    Masonst night. Are you okay now?”
