Chapter 905
Catelyn then asked a few more questions, which were all very blunt and straightforward, as if she was
pouring everything out after bottling it all for a longtime.
There was a burning pain on Draco's face.
He felt that he had underestimated Catelyn!
She was clearly calling him out for all the bad things he did to her and the two kids back then. Draco
choked, seemingly unable to find any words to answer her.
Cedrick pretended not to hear it. He sat on the sofa and listened with great interest while pouring
himself a cup of tea.
There were not many other things in the old house, but there was a lot of good quality tea around,

"Grandpa, is it difficult to answer my questions?" Catelyn continued to ask. She had suffered so much
in the past, and her dignity had been trampled repeatedly from time to time. Now, she finally had an
opportunity to stand her ground and express herself truthfully.
Otherwise, she would still be looked down upon, even if she was part of the Masons.
Draco knew that he could not fool her any longer. "You are the granddaughter of the Athertons! Rest assured that I
will not accept any woman as my granddaughter-in-law except you. Does my answer satisfy you?"
"How sad," said Catelyn as she sighed.
Draco tightened his eyebrows and leaned on his cane unhappily. "I have already said this from the bottom of my
heart, and you will not be forsaken ever again. Why are you still sad?"
"I feel sorry for Cedrick! When you choose a wife for him, it's not about her character, and it's not about her
feelings, but her background!" exclaimed
Catelyn.
She continued, "As you said, if I weren't the granddaughter of the Athertons, I would not have been accepted by
you. It's really unfortunate for Cedrick to be your grandson."
Draco did not deny what Catelyn said, but it sure sounded particularly harsh coming out of her mouth.
Even when her identity was revealed at the reunion banquet, Draco had never been so embarrassed.
What Catelyn said was the truth. A woman's background was indeed the most important thing for Draco in choosing
a wife for Cedrick. Even though Cedrick had repeatedly stated that he did not need a marriage and had repeatedly
protested against his grandfather for appointing a fiancee for him, he stubbornly believed that this was the right
thing to do!
To Draco, the century-old foundation of the Mason Family was his priority, not true love.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow that Catelyn's background has been revealed, her position was instantly transferred to the top. Since she was
together with Cedrick already, there would not be any more conflicts. Draco still wanted to persuade Catelyn to list
Miles in the family book.
"Anyway, I'm getting old, and I won't be able to control you in a few years. Since you and Ceddy don't
like my methods, have it your way then. Do something and make the foundation of the family so solid
that Miles and Ollie don't have to go through any marriage to strengthen the family," said Draco.
Catelyn stared at the old man and pursed her lips. She stopped arguing with him.
However, deep inside, she silently swore that she would never allow Ollie and Miles to not be with the
person they love because of family reasons.
As long as they truly love their future partners, Catelyn would fully support them.
At about twelve o'clock, all the senior members of the Masons were present at the ancestral hall.
Catelyn's and Miles' names were about to be listed in the family book of the Masons.
Cedrick had already come up with a new name for Miles.
He shall be named Alvis Mason.
Miles himself was even unaware that he was renamed.
