Chapter 41

Catelyn practiced the gentlest smile she could muster in front of the mirror before she headed toward

Room 6806.

“Hello, Mister Reed, I’m Catelyn Clark,” she announced herself with a soft, innocent

tone.

“Come in,” the husky voice of a man responded.

Catelyn’s heart leaped at the fact that she finally got the right room and pushed the door open into the

room.

Unlike Room 6808, the decorations inside this room were slightly less exquisite, though it was still more

classy than normal rooms.

The moment she entered the room, she was overwhelmed by the heavy scent of cigarettes and liquor,

but before her lips could curl into a smile, her eyes widened in surprise at the sight of the handsome man

sitting on the leather couch obviously made in a foreign country.

It was Jamie!

The first thought that came to Catelyn’s mind was that she had entered the wrong room…again.

“I’m sorry, I had the wrong room. My bad.” She bowed and turned to leave.

Jamie slowly set down the wine glass in his hand and called out to her before she could leave. “I thought

you’re here looking for John Reed. Leaving so soon?”

Catelyn paused and lowered her gaze to hide the doubt in her eyes with her lashes.” How do you know

about John Reed?”

“Sit. I need to talk to you.” Jamie poured another glass and set it down beside him, hinting at Catelyn to

sit next to him.

She hesitated for a moment before complying, but she did not touch the glass of wine.

Jamie’s lips curled into a mysterious smile.

“I had my men look into you. You dropped out of Sapphire University with no graduation certificate, so

you’re pretty much considered a high-school graduate. You’ve been a waitress and a dish-washer, and

you’ve also stayed under a bridge and in an abandoned bunker, before Stella almost got you and your

unborn child killed. Catelyn, I didn’t think that you’d have it so rough after leaving me.”

Jamie stared intently at Catelyn before his long fingers reached out and stroked her thigh abruptly.

Like a hedgehog intruded by an attack, Catelyn instantly tensed and backed away until she was over a

meter away from him like she was avoiding a snake. “That’s my business, so please don’t pay me any

mind. All I want to know is your relationship with John Reed.”

It was no coincidence that Jamie was here.

Jamie grinned evilly like he was mocking Catelyn before taking out a loan contract from the drawer and

slamming it onto the desk.

“This is the proof that your stepmother has borrowed one million from John Reed. We might not be

engaged anymore, but we did date once. Just tell me who your man is, and I’ll consider giving you this

contract.”

Catelyn’s eyes lit up at the sight of the paper, but she scowled when she heard Jamie’s bargain.

“What would it take for you to be convinced that I’ve been so occupied with working and taking care of

my kids that I have no time to date?”

“Hah! You seem quite protective over him.”

Unable to explain , Catelyn took out the envelope that contained a check from her purse and handed it to

Jamie. “I have three hundred thousand in this envelope. Can you please just give me that contract? I can

write you a new one that states that I owe you seven hundred thousand,” she offered gingerly.

It would be safer to borrow Jamie’s money than to let the loan fall upon Stella’s

shoulders. That way, they would not be threatened with being thrown into the ocean

as shark bait.

Jamie grinned evilly and snapped his fingers.

Instantly, a waiter pushed through the door with a tray filled with different bottles of alcohol, including red

wine, white wine, and all sorts of cocktails.
