"What did I say?" Cedrick asked deliberately."You said I love you!" Catelyn answered without thinking.Cedrick nodded calmly. "Yes, you love me.""It's I love you!" Catelyn was frustrated, so she strengthened her tone.Cedrick continued to nod with a smile. "I know you love me. You don't have to emphasize it so strongly."Catelyn got so annoyed and did not care that the emcee had not pronounced them to be husband and wife. She pushed Cedrick away and wanted to leave.Edwin was the type of person who was not afraid to cause trouble. He laughed out loud and whistled. Subsequently, Cedrick used a weird posture to extend his hand out to grab Catelyn's waist before she walked away. Instantly, she was in his arms. He held the back of her head and pressed his lips against hers…"Mmmm…" All of Catelyn's dissatisfaction was stopped by the kiss.In the meantime, she vaguely heard Cedrick mumbling seriously, "Silly. I said I love you. You're my forever love, the one and only love."It c
The waiter enthusiastically introduced the hotel's special services, as well as the special landscapes on the island, as he led them both upstairs.As they entered the bedroom, the curtains were all drawn, and the whole room was lit with an ambiguous orange light, adding a sense of exotic touch.There were also layers of rose petals on the huge bed in the shape of a heart.There were also balloons on the wall…Everything was just wonderful and dreamy!The waiter looked at Catelyn's surprised expression and explained with a smile, "These layouts were chosen by both Master Cedrick and Mister Atherton, and I hope you are satisfied with them!"Janice could not contain her excitement. "Ceddy is so romantic! Kitty, do you like it?" she asked happily."Yeah," said Catelyn, wondering why Edwin was involved in this.The waiter seemed to notice Catelyn's unnaturalness. "All men have the same taste in certain things in their nature. Not to mention that Mister Atherton and Master Cedrick a
"Nonsense! You will live a long life, and you will take care of my children!" said Catelyn.…The door was ajar, and a few rays of light managed to slide out of it.A figure passed by. Unlike the warmth and harmony in the room, the atmosphere from outside was quite the opposite.Meanwhile, downstairs, after many rounds of toasting, Edwin continued pouring Cedrick another drink.Cedrick seemed slightly drunk at the moment.Grandpa Mason was very happy to see his grandson finally marry Sylvie's granddaughter. Holding his glass of wine, he went toward Old Madam Atherton to express his gratitude.In front of countless guests, Old Madam Atherton did not want to ruin the wedding celebration, so she reluctantly drank the juice that Grandpa Mason handed over to her.The old man was as happy as a child, talking about the past in a rambunctious manner. Occasionally, he would talk about his childhood and the challenges he had faced over the years.Old Madam Atherton was overwhelmed with
After all, Catelyn was ready for this.Cedrick removed his bathrobe and got under the quilt. He pulled her into his arms. "Kiss me," he said hoarsely in a commanding tone.Catelyn turned over and started kissing his chin.She breathed a sigh of relief.Was her wedding night finally coming to an end?Suddenly, Cedrick threw off the quilt and went straight to the bathroom."Ceddy?" Catelyn exclaimed in surprise."Aren't you sleepy? Go to bed first. I'll be back soon," said Cedrick. He entered the bathroom and started taking a cold shower.…When Cedrick came out of the shower, Catelyn was so tired that she fell asleep.He ensured his body had warmed up before lying beside her.Holding her in his arms quietly, he looked at the dark ceiling above his head. Even though his body was not satisfied, his heart was greatly relieved as he hugged her.There was nothing more peaceful than falling asleep with Catelyn in his arms.It was eight o'clock the next day when Catelyn woke up, a
Catelyn let out a trembling scream.She hurried down the stairs and helped Janice who was lying paralyzed on the ground. She patted her cheek and tried to regain her consciousness. "Aunt Janice? Can you hear me? Hang on. I'm calling an ambulance…."Janice was soaked in a pool of her own blood, holding Catelyn's clothes tightly with one hand and pointing at Catelyn with the other."Cate... Catelyn...""Ah!" A maid screamed in fright as she saw what had happened. She happened to hear Catelyn's cry earlier and quickly came over to take a look."My God! Somebody help! Miss Coleman fell down the stairs!""Doctor? Where is the doctor..."The hotel instantly turned into chaos.…Cedrick was in the midst of talking to Edwin about giving Catelyn an unforgettable moment when he suddenly received a call.Catelyn was so exhausted last night, and he was so drunk that he did not have the time to do something more romantic.After hanging up the phone, Cedrick froze in place.Seeing his
Once Cedrick was certain that Catelyn was fine, he drove his car and chased after the ambulance.Catelyn was sitting in the passenger seat, watching him clutching the steering wheel with both hands. His bloodshot eyes stared in front, expressionlessly as he stepped on the accelerator. The car sped up, and Catelyn felt like she was floating on air. The car did not slow down even when they passed a big windy road.It felt as if they were about to hit something!Catelyn was so frightened that she closed her eyes tightly. She could clearly feel that the tire had hit something hard on the road, and the car started to drive crookedly.Catelyn was sweating all over. She quickly grabbed Cedrick's hand on the steering wheel. "Cedrick, please drive slowly! Aunt Janice will be okay. I don't want us to be involved in an accident!"Cedrick stared at the road silently. His face was tense, and there was no trace of sadness or joy on his face, like a rampaging beast.He gripped the steering
"I was indeed the first one to reach the stairwell, but I was only there because I overheard a conversation between her and someone else. By the time I was there, Aunt Janice had already fallen and hurt herself. I ran down to check her injury and got myself stained with her blood," said Catelyn.Draco's heart skipped a beat.Cedrick's face was dark. If there was a third person at the scene, it only meant that Janice was probably pushed down by someone. His eyes were full of hostility, and he continued to ask Catelyn, "You've mentioned that you've heard a conversation, was the other person a male or a female?"Catelyn replied without hesitation, "I'm sure it was a man.""Then, did you see who he is?" At this moment, Ezekiel suddenly raised his voice and asked.Catelyn looked at her father and said helplessly, "He ran away so quickly, I didn't manage to catch a glimpse of his face.""What about his voice? Can you recognize it?" Ezekiel asked again in a serious tone.Catelyn tried
Cedrick ordered Charles to retrieve all the surveillance footage around the island a few hours before and after the incident.Judging from the culprit's frantic escape from the scene, the crime was not premeditated.Since Janice was pushed downstairs on impulse, the culprit probably did not have any time to hide the evidence…Nobody could have imagined such a horrifying incident to take place in the morning after the wedding. The island was completely sealed off, and non-suspicious people would be evacuated in batches in an orderly manner.The operation seemed a little too much, but no one dared blame Cedrick.Old Madam Atherton brought Catelyn into the car, intending to bring her back to the manor. However, Catelyn refused. She and Cedrick had already finished their wedding, so it was only natural for her to move into the Mason Estate.Anyhow, Cedrick needed her by his side.She was disappointed that Cedrick did not call her the entire afternoon. Even when she took the initia
