Chapter 457
That night, Joanne had begged to see Miles and Ollie through texts, thus Catelyn relented and video called her.
Fortunately, Joanne was on a break from filming a night scene, so she had time to spare.
At that moment, Catelyn had a moisturizing face mask on, which made it difficult for her to move her head. Meanwhile, Miles was massaging her while Ollie fed both Catelyn and Miles bits of fruit.
The three of them were practically glued to one another, squeezing their heads in front of the phone when Joanne picked up the call. She envied how lovely the family was as she whined repeatedly, “That’s unfair!”
She had wanted to give birth to such lovely twins too for a long time.
Shortly afterward, when it was half past nine, the boys went to bed obediently.
When Catelyn finished up with her skincare, she started gossiping with Joanne about the things that happened in the company.

Catelyn was piqued because Joanne had missed the whole point. “Girl, that’s not the point. What should I do next?”
“Oh, you’re right. Don’t worry, Cat. Since Ivan still values your talent, he won’t drive you out so quickly! The most important thing now is to not leave any loose ends behind.”
She then continued after a pause, “How about you report to your boss about the filthy relationship they had?”
“Ivan has been serving the company for years. He has won many awards and successfully carried out many projects over the years. Do you think the company will fire him just because of his affair with Amy? We want to catch him red-handed, not spook him.”
Joanne struggled to come out with a new idea as she scratched her head. “Well, let’s pretend we don’t know anything and wait for a chance. We can secretly collect evidence from now.”
“Well, that’s the only way to do it.” A thought then crossed Catelyn’s mind as she added, “How are you doing recently? I haven’t heard much about you.”
Joanne’s expression faltered as she sighed deeply. “Our company will soon go bankrupt, and the fate of our future is unpredictable. My contract is still in their hands, and I don’t know what to do when the time comes.”
“Bankrupt?”
“Yeah. I’m the only actress who earns money because of the company’s poor management.”
Joanne was an optimistic lady and was rarely melancholic. Fortunately, her sadness did not last long, and she soon started gossipping about other stuff.
“Oh, Cat, did you know that our old arrogant, Lola, is back again?”
Catelyn was shocked. She had not paid much attention to Sapphire City for a long time, so she could not help but ask, “What happened to her?”
“It’s strange. Earlier, Master Cedrick ordered to suppress the Atherton family’s business. Although the Old Lady Atherton had helped the family, they lost all their business contracts in the end. But guess what? To
our surprise, Master Cedrick has now taken the initiative to help the Atherton family! Some reporters even spotted Lola meeting with Master Cedrick privately.”
Lola and Cedrick?
Catelyn knew that Lola used to be deeply infatuated with him.
She felt a twinge of pain coming from the wound on her back all of a sudden. She did not even want to take the medicine Cedrick bought for her.

Catelyn did not sleep well that night. Still, she managed by lying on her chest to not irritate her wound.
Time ticked by, and dawn came not long after.
The doorbell rang.
Having learned the lesson from a past incident, Catelyn looked out through the cat’s eye before slowly opening the door.
To her surprise, a large bouquet of beautiful gardenias greeted her first. She then suspiciously opened the door even more, and Edwin’s face showed up from behind the bouquet.
“It’s been a century, Kitty! Did you miss me?” Edwin handed the gardenias to Catelyn.
It was not a season of gardenias, yet Edwin went through the trouble to bring her these!
Elated to have reunited with a friend in a foreign country, Catelyn simply replied, “I do.” “Aren’t you supposed to invite me to go in and have a seat?”
