Chapter 124 Jamie’s face twitched in pain as he turned, only to notice a man in a pink shirt was next to
them. “I was thinking who this was. It’s one of the little Masons! “Did Cedrick Mason not teach you
manners? How are you hitting girls now?” Edwin, wearing a flamboyant floral shirt, smirked devilishly at
Jamie. The veins on Jamie’s forehead pulsed. “Edwin Atherton?” “Catelyn is under my care. Which hand
of yours landed on her?” “Catelyn is my ex-girlfriend, Edwin! She-”
“Looks like both your hands did, then.”
Before Jamie could take a good look at Edwin’s action, Edwin flipped Jamie over and slammed him to
the ground with a loud thud. Jamie was just discharged from the hospital even though he was not ready
to, and his ribcage had not fully recovered. At this moment, the excruciating pain was almost killing him.
Jamie climbed up from the ground, his whole body covered in mud as he glared daggers at both Jamie
and Catelyn defiantly. “You… You…!” “Beat it.” Edwin dusted his hands, his expression nonchalant while
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthe did. Jamie gritted his teeth as he then walked away furiously.
What a shameless pair!
Catelyn watched as Jamie left, and the look in her eyes seemed murky with uncertainty. She took a deep
breath before she turned to Edwin. Edwin had a face so beautiful that all the girls envied him. Moreover,
he always looked mischievous and casually emitted a dangerously flirty personality from time to time.
However, Catelyn was immune to it.
She had been surrounded by good-looking guys in many of her years, and her son was handsome, too.
She was used to it.
“Thanks, Edwin.” Catelyn smiled.
Edwin raised his brow. “You know me?”
“The infamous CEO of Sapphire City’s Worldwide Entertainment Co., and the favorite child of the
entertainment and media industry. Everyone knows you.”
Edwin frequented the news at times, and he sometimes even made it to the headlines. More often than
not, it was about him and some actresses, models, or other girls outside of
the industry. Edwin, in a nutshell, was a known playboy.
Not only was Edwin unashamed of this, but he looked rather proud of it, too. “I need to let the reporters
make a living, right? They can’t survive by just eating dust, you know.” “You’re right, and that’s very
generous of you. I also have to thank you for saving me, but…” “Wait a minute.” Edwin took out an
invitation card from his pocket and handed it to Catelyn.” There is a corporate dinner tomorrow night, and
many famous designers will be attending, too. I’d like you to come with me.” Catelyn was stunned at this
as she stared at the invitation card owlishly. She needed to resume her work later on, and it would be a
good opportunity for her to meet and network with these people. However, why would Edwin want to
invite her as his ‘plus-one’? Not to mention, his was their first time meeting, too! “We’re not that close,
Edwin.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“No one would be close to anyone just by meeting each other once. Just interacting and communicating
more will do.” Edwin straightened himself. He looked like the undeniable heartthrob-heartbreaker man,
despite his flower-motive shirt. “Worry not; you’re not my type. I’m not interested in you.” Catelyn
hesitated. Even though Edwin was famous for being open, she had not heard that he would force any
woman. “Why would you look for me?” “Don’t you think we look a little alike?”
Was he flirting with her?
Though, to be honest, they might share a little resemblance with each other upon closer inspection.
“Alright. To be honest, I know that some members of the Atherton family have had some conflicts with
you recently. Cedrick has been giving them quite a rough time, and they pleaded for my help “Anyway,
I’ve saved you today and offered you this invitation card. You could say something good to Cedrick later
on, and we’ll be good.”
