Chapter 330
He stared at the photo for a long time.
He was the person she met?
In the days that Catelyn was waiting for Joanne and the mysterious man, she was mostly just
languishing. She would not take much initiative at work, but she would not drag the team’s progress
either. She tried to lie low and be invisible. Today, she finished her task given by Jennifer and then
helped Samantha with a data comparison table.
Halfway through, Samantha suddenly nudged her shoulder, signaling toward the doorway. Catelyn
looked to where she pointed. George was here again, smiling at her gently, seemingly trying to have a
conversation. “Catelyn, Mister Graham have been here to see you three times this week, no?” Samantha
giggled playfully.

“He is obviously looking at you.” Samantha then snatched her papers away and pushed her to the door.
“Here, this was originally my task. You go on with your date, I can handle this.”
Catelyn did not say anything more. She indeed had something to clarify with George She was no fool,
and she knew what George was up to. She would be lying if she said she had no idea why George
looked for her so frequently. She took a deep breath, and kept the documents on her desk, then walked
to the door.
It was nearing the end of the day, but Jennifer had not logged off. People could not help but take a few
looks at Catelyn when she left.
Catelyn did not care much either.
George brought Catelyn to an Italean restaurant,
George remembered the first meal that Catelyn bought him was a steak, and it tasted good. He went
back to the place a few times after that, sometimes even with his friends.
However, when it was not with Catelyn, it felt as though something was missing.
George had ordered the food beforehand.
After the two got seated, the waiter served a bottle of red wine and some fruits as appetizers. George
nervously gulped two glasses of wine down his throat, and he blushed.
Before Catelyn could say anything, George looked right into her eyes, mustered his courage, and said,
“Cat… Catelyn, I have something to tell you.”
His face grew even redder.
Under the warm light, he looked very sincere. Catelyn did not have the heart to hurt him.

“I have something to tell you too.” “No, let me say it first.” George then gulped another glass of wine
down, riding on the extra courage that the alcohol provided, and he said, “I like you, Catelyn. Would you

The world paused for a few seconds. Catelyn did not expect him to be so straightforward, and the smile
on her face faded a little. She poured herself a glass of wine too.
The wine was a little strong, and she could feel her throat burning.
“I like you too, George.”
George’s nervous eyes immediately lit up, but before he could hold Catelyn’s hands, Catelyn said, “I only
like you as a friend, as a colleague. Not romantically.”
The light in George’s eyes went out. He asked anxiously, “Don’t you reject me so soon. Are you
concerned for your child? I promise I will treat him as my own.”
“What about your parents?” Catelyn went straight to the point. “Can they accept a girl who has never
been married but has a child already? George, I am grateful for all the care and guidance that you gave
me in the office. You deserve a better girl.”
