Chapter 729
Was it because he was feeling guilty and did not dare to pick up her phone call?
When she was panicking, her phone rang.
She thought it was from her cousin and pressed the answer button happily. She then realized it
was not her cousin but was a completely strange number...
However, the voice of the person was not unfamiliar!
She had been to Ocean Path Residence to look for Catelyn and the voice who told her the
address was this exact one!
In the car, Catelyn took out a bottle of water from the car compartment and gulped it empty.
She then flipped open the documents that she did not finish going through.
She was very focused. Even if the light was not bright enough, her eyes were still glittering.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCedrick forced himself to look away so as not to disturb her.
When she finished organizing her train of thoughts and placed the documents back into her bag, he only said, "
Do you know why Pentaland picked on you?”
Catelyn shook her head, "Perhaps we were too high profile about the charity. Pentaland felt threatened and did not
want to give US a chance to turn ourselves around."
Catelyn could only think of this one possibility.
After all, VSA Group did not have a presence before this. Everyone hated their company.
Phillip Kingsley would not even look at them before.
Cedrick said sarcastically, "The person in charge of Pentaland now has a beef with you."
Beef with me? Catelyn was so busy today that she had never thought that the competitor was picking on her. She
asked, "Who is the person in charge now? What beef?"
She did not remember offending the new person in charge of Pentaland...
Wait for a second, Jolene told her before that Pentaland was now managed by the long-lost granddaughter of the
Atherton family.
Does that mean that the new addition to the Atherton family had a beef with her?
Catelyn’s eyes were locked onto Cedrick, but he still did not tell her right away. Instead, he gave her another hint,
"Last week, when we went out to take our family photo, I received a message from Charles, saying that Quinn
resigned."
The car was quiet for a few seconds.
Catelyn felt her throat dry as though stuck with a piece of sponge. She cried lowly, "Are you suggesting that Quinn
turned into Granny Atherton's granddaughter overnight?"
Then she would be Edwin's cousin?
No wonder Edwin and Joanne were quiet recently. They must have been busy welcoming this
new family member.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCatelyn then frowned. She could not believe it. "Didn't you just find out that Quinn was my
mother's biological daughter?"
"I guess Quinn found a way to make the Atherton family accept her." Cedrick did not believe that
Quinn was capable enough to get the entire Atherton family to believe her.
There must either be someone behind her, or the Atherton family deliberately allowed her to do
so.
"Don't they conduct background checks? Even if the entire Atherton family did not doubt it, what
about Edwin? He is so smart. Could he also have been fooled...”
Catelyn mumbled. No wonder as soon as she took over, Pentaland came right at her.
With the Atherton family behind it, of course, it would be natural for Quinn to launch an attack
on herself.
Cedrick said, "The Atherton family has always been in the hands of Granny Atherton all these
years. Edwin is the eldest grandson but did not take over the business. As she aged, the morale
in the company got lower, office politics were widespread. Perhaps Granny Atherton wanted to
use Quinn to help do some housekeeping."
