Chapter 339 Catelyn continued working until midnight. Everyone in the office had left except her, and
even the janitor left too. Catelyn was still comparing her data, she was about to finish when her stomach
started rumbling.
She thought she could finish before midnight, but it seemed that she might need another half an hour for
it…
In the quiet office, the windows were left ajar. Wind gushed through, smacking the glass panes of the
window, and the curtains were whistling in the wind. It was a breezy night.
Catelyn could literally feel the chills down her spine, so she rose from her seat to close the windows.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen she returned to her seat, she was shocked to see a tall silhouette standing by the door! All the
lights in the corridor were turned off. His shadow was cast onto the glass door, which looked a little eerie
in the quiet night. Catelyn’s heart skipped a beat as well, as though her soul had left her body for one
second and returned. The shadow moved, and Catelyn took a few steps back, her heart racing. Finally,
the shadow came under the light.
His prominent features were finally clearly visible. His leather shoes squeaked as he strode across.
Catelyn’s heart beat rhythmically to every sound of his footsteps.
It was Cedrick, not a ghost. Cedrick was frowning. He looked around and said, “Did I scare you?”
“I almost passed out!” Catelyn was relieved but was also surprised to see him. “It’s late. Why are you still
at the office?”.
“Aren’t you still at the office as well?”
Cedrick took one look at his watch, and it was past twelve. The lights of other houses were mostly turned
off, and only the street lights and traffic lights were still shining in the quiet night.
He looked at her computer and asked, “Are you still working?” “Yes, I have just a little bit more to finish.
You go ahead.”
Cedrick walked to her desk and looked at the screen. He understood that she was comparing the pricing.
He clicked save, and before Catelyn could react, he clicked on the button to shut the computer down.
The screen went black, and Catelyn leaped forward, trying to protect her computer, “What are you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdoing? I have not finished it!” “Work is endless.”
Catelyn was about to say that they needed the data by tomorrow, but she did not feel like getting into an
argument with him either. She thought just to come in early tomorrow to finish it.
She noticed Cedrick was watching her, not blinking once as she was thinking.
She could not help but touch her cheeks. Did she have something on her face?
Under the bright office light, her skin was silky smooth. Twenty-four hours ago, she was still lying in his
arms, looking at him with her watery, doe-like eyes. Cedrick took a step forward, getting right close up to
her, and asked, “Does it still hurt?”
His voice was deep. It sounded extraordinarily seductive in such a quiet office where no one was around.
Catelyn was confused. She had no clue what he was referring to without any context. “What?” Cedrick’s
voice was a little too dangerously sexy.
