Chapter 696

Catelyn wiped away the water around her lips calmly, then looked at Jolene unhappily from the corner of her eyes. "Do you think my husband is the kind of person who would sacrifice himself for a project?"

It had to be some billion-dollar project for him to give himself up, not something as small as theirs.

"Who knows? Maybe Cedrick was unwilling to see you crying over the project..." Jolene threw her right hand into the air and looked heavily in love. "After all, he is a hopeless romantic."

Catelyn slapped the document on her shoulder. "Girl, stop dreaming."

Even though she said so, Catelyn herself was full of questions.

What did Windy even mean? Did she intend to hook up with Cedrick?

Catelyn was uncomfortable at the thought.

Later, when both parties were discussing the next step, Catelyn took the opportunity to ask Windy about it," Why did you suddenly change your mind in the end?"

Windy flipped her wavy hair flirtatiously and then winked at her. "You don't want to know about the answer to this."

Catelyn felt even more curious now.

"I warn you. Work is work, life is life. If you dare to have any inappropriate thoughts about my husband..."

Before she could finish, Windy replied, "What if your husband already agreed to it?"

"Stop trying to break US apart!" Catelyn did not believe in her nonsense.

Cedrick would not sell himself for work! He did not need the money.

"If you don't believe me, just call your husband and ask him. There's no man that does not cheat."

Catelyn pushed her away angrily. She could not believe that Windy was even... trying to flirt with her?

Was she bisexual?

How did David put up with her?

Catelyn did not believe her. She probably was recklessly spreading false rumors.

The next day, she routinely visited Stella in the hospital. However, she saw Granny Atherton and Kelly Preston in the ward.

The air was filled with a fruity scent. Kelly had brought along many presents and fresh fruits. They all filled the tiny table at the side.

Stella was surprised to hear Kelly's introduction about Granny Atherton. She was carefully chatting with Granny Atherton.

Granny Atherton was much older than Stella, and she had a much higher social status. Stella could not even say much when chatting with her. She did not even know how to talk with her. She could only smile throughout and ask her if she was thirsty.

The atmosphere was very awkward in the ward.

Kelly stayed by Granny Atherton's side and peeled an orange for her.

If it were not to annoy Grandpa Mason by helping Catelyn, Granny Atherton would never have come to the hospital.

Granny Atherton did not really mean to visit Stella anyway. She sat coldly on the soft leather couch, her chin stiff. She looked unapproachable.

Stella was grateful to see Catelyn in such a tense atmosphere!

Stella had never been so intimidated, not even when she met Cedrick.

"Kitty?" Stella waved enthusiastically at Catelyn. Her lips cracked into a smile. "Quick, Granny Atherton is here to visit. Please show her some warm hospitality as I am stuck on the bed."

Catelyn frowned slightly when she saw Granny Atherton.

She had never seen Granny Atherton after the design competition.

Perhaps she did not leave a good first impression on Granny Atherton. Catelyn only showed basic courtesy and respect toward Granny Atherton. She was not overly warm to her.
