Chapter 320
Catelyn looked back at the man in displeasure and flatly spoke, “Mister, what are you doing?”
“I’m sorry. I just wanted to tell you that you dropped something,” replied the man. He quickly realized that
his actions were inappropriate and quickly let go of Catelyn’s hand before pointing to the ground with a
warm smile on his face.
Catelyn looked in the direction of his finger and saw a dollar lying on the ground.
She withdrew her gaze and looked at the man.
“Mister, your approach is a little old-fashioned. I was in a rush today, and I didn’t bring any money along,”
said Catelyn before she walked away without giving the man a second look.
The man stared in the direction where Catelyn disappeared, and his startled expression suddenly
changed as he curled his lips into a sinister smile.

“Didn’t bring any money along, huh?” he murmured in amusement. He had seen the banknote fall out of
Catelyn’s pocket with his own eyes. Did Cedrick really like silly women like her?
The aroma of caffeine was all over the air in the VIP section of the coffee shop, which was on the top
floor of Riverdale Mall. Cedrick sat by a coffee table draped with a light-colored tablecloth as he sipped
his coffee slowly.
Sitting across from him was a cheerful-looking boy who was about 17 or 18 years old. He had short
brown hair with a strand of green-colored dye across.
“Cousin, just promise me that I can be an intern in your company! I’ll never cause any trouble! “pleaded
Javier Mason as he stared at Cedrick with hope-filled eyes.
Cedrick took a sip of his coffee and said, “You know your aunt doesn’t want you to join the company too
early and get involved in family affairs.” “But I’m already a mature adult. I have a girlfriend!” wailed Javier.
Cedrick paused and raised his eyelids lazily. “Seriously?” he muttered.
“I promise that I’ll do well if you allow me to intern in your company. There is so much inside work politics,
and with me by your side, I can help you identify the culprit,” said Javier, his expression ambitious.
Cedrick’s temple bulged a little.
If he did not allow Javier to join his company, the young adult would no doubt harass him until the end of
time.
“Okay, you may join as an intern,” said Cedrick. “However, you’re only allowed to be in the secretarial
department. Start working yourself from a low position. If you can’t handle the hardship, leave as soon as
possible and continue your studies abroad.”
Javier nodded desperately and exclaimed, “Thank you, cousin. You’re the best!
“Oh, I’ve heard that you were going to call off your marriage with Maia and that you’ve fallen
in love with another woman from the Clark family. Is she prettier than Miss Maia?”

Javier quickly understood what that meant. “Welp! I guess it’s time for me to go. Anyway, I’ll be reporting
to your company tomorrow.”
“Wait.” Cedrick stopped him.
Javier thought he was going to get punished. He knew Cedrick hated it if others meddled in his private
affairs.
However…
“Get rid of your brown hair. Dye it back to black, or I’ll have someone shave it all off for you,” said Cedrick
Javier touched his brown hair childishly. “Aww, really? I’ve been growing it for years, and I’m attached to
it already! I’ll be so sad to see it go… Well, I guess I’ll just have to dye it back again next time.”
Javier left as he finished speaking, leaving Cedrick alone in the cafe.
Cedrick continued to enjoy his coffee as he glanced out of the window inadvertently. Suddenly, his fierce
black eyes narrowed.
