Chapter 136 Lori’s face was also full of disgust. “To put it bluntly, she did it for the money!” “Don’t say
that. Catelyn… doesn’t look like someone who would betray anyone for money,” said Louella. She
secretly felt a little joyous as she listened to the two trash-talking Catelyn. The more the Mason family
looked down on Catelyn, the less likely Jamie would get back together with Catelyn. However, Jamie just
kept his face sullen and said nothing. If he had not regretted his marriage back then, he would be the
one standing beside Catelyn today. Seeing Jamie’s expression, Louella’s expression sank again. The
only thing she saw in him was regret.
Meanwhile, on the dance floor. Edwin had said something which made Catelyn smile shyly. She was

gloomy. What are they talking about? What is so funny? Edwin had been known to be a chick magnet.
Has Catelyn also fallen into his trap? Maia also looked at the two of them on the dance floor with
jealousy. How did they get everyone’s attention?
She immediately walked toward Cedrick’s side and looked at him with eyes full of hope and affection.
“Master Cedrick, I had talked too much just now. Look, Edwin and Catelyn are both dancing over there.
Why don’t we go too?” Catelyn was given the opportunity to demonstrate her piano skills earlier, but
Maia would not allow her to dominate the dance floor now.
Cedrick wanted to refuse initially, but his eyes narrowed dangerously as he locked his gaze on Edwin
and Catelyn. “Okay,” he said.
Maia’s heart was beating wildly as she did not expect Cedrick to agree immediately. Maia peeked at him
shyly as they both entered the dance floor together. Soothing music started playing. Maia followed the
beat of the music with her every step, maintaining her usual nobility and
elegance as she danced.
At the same time, Maia desperately tried to find a topic to talk about with Cedrick while they danced to
make it appear to outsiders that they were having a good time together.
“You gave grandpa a golden chest set before, and grandpa said he liked it very much,” said Maia.
Cedrick responded in a distracted voice, “Yeah.” “When are you going to visit Grandpa?” “I’ll go when I’m
free.” “Grandpa would definitely need someone to play his new chess set. I believe he will be very happy
if you’re with him,” said Maia as she put her small hand on his shoulder, sniffing his strong masculine

She saw a reporter taking a candid photo of them, and the ladies around looked envious. At this
moment, Maia was feeling prideful and satisfied. “My goodness, Ms. Clark is really beautiful. Master
Cedrick is so handsome too…”
“I wish I could dance with Master Cedrick…”
“Master Edwin is not bad either, Catelyn also looked very beautiful in his arms…”
“Speaking of which, it’s such a pity for Catelyn. Before the Clark Family went bankrupt, there were so
many men going after her…” As Maia listened to the gossip and discussions of the people around, she
started dancing more attentively. Out of the corner of her eyes, Maia took a glance at Catelyn and Edwin.
Although Catelyn danced pretty well, she had not done so for four years, and she was starting to be
unable to keep up with Edwin.
‘Heh, she was a bumpkin after all,’ thought Maia. Meanwhile, Edwin was awkwardly chatting with
Catelyn.
