Chapter 505
I’ve lost everything already! What else do you want from me?’ screamed Ivan internally, knowing he would never
say these things out loud.
He turned to Cately and smiled politely as he apologized, “I’m so sorry to have wronged you, Missus Mason. Can
you please allow me to walk out of here in peace?”
Catelyn had achieved her goal.
Ivan had relied on his fame and talent within the architecture world his whole life, and without these things, he was
nothing
Cedrick, however, did not think it was enough.
“You’ve forged evidence just to frame my wife and instigated others to commit crimes for you. If these were
reported to the police…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“No!” Ivan lost his composure as he shrieked, “I have an elderly mother to take care of at home! I can’t go to jail!”
“Don’t worry. My wife is too kindhearted, and she’d never do that. That’s why I’ve thought of a second option for
you.”
Ivan gulped nervously, doubtful of how forgiving Catelyn was. Nonetheless, he questioned, “What’s…the second
option?”
“My wife invested in a coal mine in South Afreca a while ago, and they’re looking for more miners at the moment.
I’m happy to pay you the same amount of salary you’re getting now if you work there for five years. If you manage
to stay away from my wife afterward, I’ll forget everything that you’ve done.”
Catelyn looked at Cedrick incredulously.
What a bunch of nonsense! She had never even been to South Afreca, let alone invested in a coal mine there!
Of course, Ivan was reluctant on that offer. He spat in anger as he had lost all of his composure, “What’s the
difference between that and going to jail?!”
“The difference is that you have an elderly mother to take care of.”
“No! I’m not going to jail, nor am I going to be a miner!”
“You have one day to decide. If I don’t get an answer, I’ll be reporting your crime to the police.” Cedrick’s tone was
cold as he gestured at Eason with his eyes.
Eason understood him and dragged Ivan out of the room in an instant.
Cedrick did not stay long after doing what he came to do. He whispered something into Catelyn’s ear before
leaving.
Catelyn reluctantly hummed in reply when she heard that he would come pick her up after work, as she dreaded
having to deal with him later.
Her impatience toward him, however, only showed how spoiled she was by Cedrick.
Cedrick was satisfied with Catelyn’s behavior as he walked out of the VSA building with a grin on his face.
Catelyn felt eyes on her from everywhere the moment Cedrick left. William even started treating her with respect

That afternoon, Cedrick did not return to his office. He chose to wander around the streets.
At about three to four o’clock, he headed to the jewelry shop that he had gone to two days ago. He retrieved the
black ring box and the ring from his pocket, placing them on the counter.
The ring had a charming motive of fireworks.
“Please pick a new box for this ring for me.”
The ring box had been with him for a while, and there were even visible light scratches on the box.
The worker was unaware of the fact that the man in front of her was their new boss. All she knew was the boss was
an Amarican, which was why she was cautious while serving one.
However, Cedrick was definitely the first man to purchase a box without jewelry in a jewelry shop.
“Sir, is this for a proposal?” a female worker asked.
Cedrick smiled and nodded. She then proceeded to tell him that he needed more than just a box to propose.
