    Chapter 431


    Everyone looked to where she pointed after hearing her scream.


    A few bodyguards in ck suits were escorting a tall, slender man, walking in their direction.


    As though a rose among the thorns, the man, who was 188cm tall, had short, crisp hair, almost perfect


    facial features, and was wearing a pair of sunsses. Nobody could tell his actual emotions


    underneath those shades.


    His suit was so perfectly ironed that not a single wrinkle could be found.


    His strides were steady, and every woman gasped as he walked past.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    The air was frozen.


    Catelyn felt an invisible hand clutching her throat. It was Cedrick!


    Why was he in Franche!?


    Shouldn’t he be working on Project Castle in the City at home?


    There were only a few meters between them, and Catelyn was already panicking.


    She felt like a prey being targeted by the beast and was frozen in George’s arms.


    George could sense the unusual reaction from Catelyn and ask, “What happened?”


    “…” Catelyn tried hard to maintain herposure. “I’m sorry, I could not continue the game with you


    anymore.


    Catelyn hastily got down from George’s arms.


    “Miss rk, why did you get down? This means you gave up thepetition,” The emcee said,


    bewildered.


    Catelyn’s feet were nailed to the ground, and her heart was pounding fast. “It was my mistake.”


    “No worries, we had fun,” George smiled and said but immediately felt someone’s gaze on him.


    He turned around and saw Cedrick’s tall figure moving in his direction.


    He suddenly understood the reason for Catelyn’s strange reaction.


    “Don’t be scared, I’m here,” George consoled her gently and grabbed her hand.


    Cedrick caught this moment in hindsight and smirked.


    Before this, he wondered how Catelyn would react too.


    Terrified, panicked, shocked…


    He guessed it all.


    There was only one exception, happiness. His gaze swept past George’s and Catelyn’s hands that


    were interlinked with each other’s.


    Did she only flee to Franche so that she could be together with this man?


    She better be dreaming about it.


    Cedrick was the CEO of Mason Group. The Design Director of VSA Group knew about his arrival and


    immediately brought his people along to wee his arrival warmly. Soon, the space was filled with


    people. Everyone was watching Cedrick intensely, including Amy.


    She thought George was already the hottest Amarican she had seen all her life but was pleasantly


    surprised to know there was someone even hotter!


    The Director, William, shook hands with Cedrick.


    The crowd grew bigger and bigger, and Catelyn only wished to escape right now.


    Amy did not leave after losing the previous round but stayed on to prepare for the next one. She saw


    Catelyn backing out and looked back at Cedrick’s cold face. She snickered and then pushed Catelyn


    hard from behind.


    Thud!


    Catelyn got caught off guard and lost her bnce. She immediately fell to the ground on her knees,


    and her hands stretched out in an attempt to get hold of something to support herself.


    Thump…


    Finally, shended on the ground on all fours and somehow looked like she was worshiping him. Her


    hands held onto his… leather shoe tips!
