Chapter 801
"We’re living in the twenty-first century. No one should talk about marrying a person from a similar societal status
family anymore."
Just when Joanne scrolled through her contact, she suddenly remembered that she did not have a phone number
from Elder Mason, so she turned to look at Edwin.
Edwin asked slowly, " How do I help you if you don't tell me what Elder Mason has?"
As soon as he finished, he saw Catelyn suddenly grab Joanne's mobile phone, and with the number in her memory,
she called Elder Mason.
Joanne was right, she should always try to fight for what she wanted.
While waiting for the call to get through, Catelyn passed Miles, who was about to faint from crying, to Joanne before
she headed to a quiet place with no one around.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUncle Ford had been in charge of Elder Mason's phone, whenever there was a call, he would screen out the
unimportant ones before passing the phone to Elder Mason.
When Uncle Ford heard Catelyn's voice, he asked politely, "Miss Clark, what are you calling for?"
"I want to talk to Grandpa Mason."
Uncle Ford felt hesitant upon hearing his request and thus said, " Master isn't free to talk to you right now. You can
tell me what you need, and I'll pass it to him later on."
"I'll divorce Cedrick, but I have a request."
Catelyn's words instantly piqued Uncle Ford's interest.
When Cedrick and Elder Mason were arguing, he was on the spot, so he knew that Cedrick had signed a prenuptial
agreement with Catelyn.
Uncle Ford's attitude suddenly changed. "Miss Clark, please wait a moment."
Catelyn did not know why Uncle Ford was willing to help all of a sudden.
About two minutes later, she heard Elder Mason's voice on the phone, "What's the matter?"
"I've left Cedrick according to your request. Can you tell my father's whereabouts now?"
"Relax, young lady. Ceddy hasn't married Quinn yet. Who knows if you'd break your promise after I hand over your
father to you," Elder Mason said coldly, sounding oppressive.
Catelyn had long expected that. Her father was the trump card in Elder Mason's hand. He would not hand it over so
easily, and arguing with Elder Mason was the last thing she wanted to do.
"I'll go through the divorce formalities with Cedrick tomorrow. Before my father comes back, I want to keep Miles
with me. Is that okay?
"Don't worry, I won't act rashly since my father is in your hands, and I don't dare to take him away, but Miles has
never been separated from me. If I leave him so abruptly, he may fall apart horribly."
Elder Mason suddenly fell silent, and Catelyn was pleasantly surprised there was a trace of humanity in him.
She clenched her fists tightly and continued, "I promise that when Father comes back, Miles will get used to living
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwithout me, and I'll send him back to Cedrick. This is my last request. I hope you can understand the feelings of
being a mother."
"About the divorce, I need you to postpone it," said Elder Mason.
This baffled Catelyn. "Isn't this what you've always hoped for?"
"I said postpone it, so just do what I told you to! Miles has never been obedient in our family, so take him with you if
you like! After Ceddy and Quinn get married, I'll have someone pick him up."
If they were to get divorced, Cedrick would be so stubborn as to not give all his assets to Catelyn. That was not the
result Elder Mason wanted to see, so he had to take a step back.
Of course, Catelyn did not know what Elder Mason was thinking. She was mistaken that Elder Mason did not like
Miles, her adorable son.
"Okay. As long as you promise to let me keep Miles beside me, I'll wait for your next command." Catelyn hung up
the phone, and she felt more relieved than ever.
After all, she was glad that she still had Miles by her side.
