“Isn’t Jolene an Amarican as well? Uncle, please just fulfill my wish. If you decide to keep Catelyn, I’ll
leave! The decision is yours.”
This would put the collaboration with Mason Group at stake.
Ivan pondered for a short while.
Amy went around the working desk and propped one hand against Ivan’s chest, drawing circles on his
chest with a finger as she whined, “Uncle, please… Just say yes.”
“Fine, I’ll do as you wish,” came Ivan’s eventual answer, relenting, much to Amy’s joy.
She would get Catelyn to pack her bags and scram today!
However, before her lips could crack into a smile, she saw Ivan shrugging helplessly. “Since you can’t
work with Catelyn, I guess my only choice is to remove you from the project.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“W-What?” Amy’s jaw dropped unhinged. “Uncle Ivan, you must’ve made a mistake! Didn’t you intend
to fire Catelyn?”
“I said that this project has to include the Amaricans. Catelyn and Jolene were the only two in our
department, and we can’t give up the quota to other departments.”
Ivan then knocked the tabletop with his knuckles and said, “You go and pack your stuff. I’ll remove your
name from the project.”
‘No, no, no! I-I was just joking!” Of course, Amy would never quit the project because of Catelyn.
She then grinned and added, “Don’t remove my name; this project is important!”
“Isn’t it hard for you to work with Catelyn?”
“…I was just saying.” Amy hastily winked at Ivan, then made an awkward excuse to leave.
She was, in fact, very upset about the situation.
If it were not because the collaboration counterparty was an Amarican, Catelyn would not have posed a
threat to her!
The project was finalized. VSA Group and Mason Construction Company decided to pull off a
collaborative event so that both parties could have some interaction. The event venue was fixed at the
holiday resort, and everyone looked forward to it.
Catelyn was elated about it, but at the same time, she could not help but feel somewhat concerned.
Similarly, some people who were thrilled about it, while some were worried.
In a presidential suite of a hotel in Franche, Cedrick was holding a few pieces of photo in his hand. His
gaze was fixated on them, sharpened with hostility.
Edwin, meanwhile, was swirling the wine glass in his hand casually and teased, “Tsk, tsk! You flew all
the way here only to peek at her from afar. You should have some balls to appear to Kitty!”
The photos that Cedrick was holding were the ones they took while on a trip together.
George would visit Catelyn every once in a while.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Catelyn moved, George even purposely drove her and helped her diligently with the luggage.
Cedrick smacked the photos down on the table and looked at Edwin coldly. “You have too much free
time at hand. Do you need my help to inform Granny Atherton that you’re taking refuge in Franche?”
“How dare you open up my scar?” Annoyed, Edwin placed his wine glass down.
Edwin was no better off than Cedrick as of late. Of course, Cedrick was not teasing him without a
reason.
After all, he was forced to be married.
Granny Atherton had long wished to reunite with her daughter but to no avail. At this point, knowing she
was growing old, she could only put her hopes on Edwin.
She desperately wanted to see Edwin getting married and have kids while she was still around.
In fact, Edwin was rather cooperative in the beginning, and he would actively select the ones that he
thought would qualify.
However…
All the girls that Granny Atherton picked were either too boring, only having the unity of the two families
in mind, or were even more promiscuous than he was. Could he not hide from these?
