Chapter 1248 "So strange," Catelyn mumbled, but then she closed her eyes obediently. Cedrick picked up Puffy, put her sweet-sleeping little face close to Catelyn's face, and compared them carefully. ‘They are so much alike. Especially Puffy’s eyebrows and mouth are really Catelyn’s miniature version. Cedrick suddenly felt that the little girl in his arms became very heavy. "Can I open my eyes now?" Catelyn heard that Cedrick didn’t do anything, so she subconsciously asked. After waiting a few seconds, Catelyn still didn’t hear any sound. Catelyn slowly opened her eyes. She saw Cedrick holding up Puffy. The warm golden sunshine passed through the glass window and fell on Puffy’s little body, which made her sacred. "Have you noticed that Puffy looks like you?" There was more earnestness and tenderness in Cedrick’s eyes. Catelyn did not understand Cedrick’s words, but she still nodded instinctively, "She is my niece. Shouldn't she be so much like me?" "Sharon is her moth
Chapter 1249Over the past half a month, they had locked down a lot of IPs, but none of them was Joanne’s. It was like she was destined to leave and never come back. When Catelyn knew that there was a clue to help her to find her daughter, she was anxious and didn't want to wait. After telling Kelly to take good care of Puffy, she hurried back to Mason Estate with Cedrick. Miles and Ollie were more worried about Puffy, so they stayed at Atherton Manor. By the time Catelyn and Cedrick arrived at Mason Estate, Eason was already waiting for them with a group of technicians. "Mr. Mason, this is that killer's phone..." Eason handed the decrypted phone to Cedrick, "Although that killer refused to say anything, he was very cautious so that we had a chance. He was afraid that Mr. Denson would kill him, so he saved evidence every time Mr. Denson arranged for him to kill someone else. He has killed a lot of people in just a few years." Cedrick scanned the names on the screen. Many
Chapter 1250 In order to survive, Ezekiel definitely had contacted Mr. Denson for negotiation. He should have found a way to contact Mr. Denson or some people close to Mr. Denson. According to the later results, the negotiation must have failed, so Ezekiel had no choice but to come to Catelyn for help. In this case, Mr. Denson was afraid that Ezekiel would give Catelyn some clues against him, so he arranged for the killer to take Ezekiel's life downtown. Eason immediately did exactly as Catelyn had said. After a while, they found two identical phone numbers in that killer’s and Ezekiel's call records! One of the phone numbers was called shortly after Ezekiel got out of prison. The other one was called twenty minutes before Ezekiel's car accident. Catelyn pointed to the latest call record, "Could it be this?" Cedrick turned Ezekiel's mobile phone, and his eyes gradually became cold. Then he dialed that phone number and asked someone in the technical department to track th
Chapter 1251Did it have something to do with the mayor of Sapphire City?Showing an incredulous expression, Catelyn quickly searched for the mayor of Sapphire City, Waylon Swale, with her phone.Waylon, nearly 60 years old, had held an important position in Sapphire City for almost 30 years. Always conscientious, he delivered remarkable achievements and worked for the well-being of the people in the city, so in their eyes, he was a rare great officer...From this aspect, he couldn’t be Mr. Denham, who was cruel and merciless.But if Mr. Denham was Waylon, it made sense that Mr. Denham was very affluent and powerful, so powerful that he could even try to kill Ezekiel in broad daylight.Even so, Cedrick couldn’t conclude that Mr. Denham was Waylon, as the people around Waylon were also suspicious. Thus, Cedrick immediately arranged for some men to watch the government-owned residence closely.Anyway, the person who did something strange three days later would be the man behind th
Chapter 1252Suddenly, the bedroom door was pushed open by force.Catelyn was taken aback.Then all the lights in the bedroom were turned on, and instantly, the whole bedroom became as bright as day.Cedrick stormed into the room.Sensing the fury, Catelyn looked back and saw Cedrick standing near the door with a wrathful and dark expression. He was glaring at Edwin very coldly.Catelyn felt confused, as Cedrick hadn't got so angry for long, and to her shock, he treated Edwin this way. "Honey?” She greeted him tentatively. With a sinking feeling, she tried to ease the tense atmosphere. "Why are you looking at Edwin this way? Does anything go wrong? Today is his birthday, and Grandma is rarely so happy. Calm down."At the sight of Cedrick's dark face, Edwin guessed the reason for Cedrick’s wrath. He gave a playful smile and said, "Well, it seems that you have known everything.""Edwin, I view you as my brother. But what have you done? You've fooled all of us like monkeys," Ced
Chapter 1253‘I’ll ask them what has happened later,’ Catelyn thought.The moment she left, Cedrick locked the door. He turned his fingers into a ball and punched Edwin who looked playful and casual.Cedrick exerted so much strength that there was a gust of wind.Edwin didn't dodge and endured the punch. A fist mark appeared on his right cheek, and he began gasping in pain.Before Edwin's pain subsided, Cedrick raised his fist again and was about to punch him.Edwin narrowed his eyes and quickly avoided the punch. He took off his dark suit jacket and said, “You want to have a fight, don’t you? Come on!”Cedrick sneered. “You're asking for it.”After a brief silence, they started fighting. Their muscles bulged when they fought. The hot sweat dripped from their foreheads, down their faces and necks, and to their collarbones. In the end, it disappeared after sliding down to their chests.Their white shirts were wet with sweat, clinging to their honey-colored bodies...Under the
Chapter 1254Somehow, Catelyn couldn't bear to scold Edwin when sensing his dispiritedness.Edwin only allowed others to see what he intended for them to see...Few people could read his mind.Catelyn gave a sigh resignedly. Then she took out an ice pack from the refrigerator, wrapped it in a towel and threw it to Edwin while suppressing her anger. "Reduce the swelling with the ice pack. Otherwise, Grandma will feel sad when she sees your face later,” she uttered."Kitty, I'm sorry..." Edwin suddenly apologized seriously.Staring at the injuries on his face, Catelyn found he was more severely harmed than Cedrick. Those injuries looked shocking.As her inexplicable fury dissipated, she urged impatiently, "Well, I don't want to know what has happened. But you'd better mitigate the swelling. Grandma and the others are waiting for you to go downstairs and cut the cake."Edwin didn't move, but twitched his mouth mockingly."Actually, you are the one who should punch me,” Edwin said
Chapter 1255As Edwin and Cedrick couldn't hide the injuries on their faces, Old Madam Atherton knew about their fight soon.Catelyn was afraid that Old Madam Atherton would fly into a temper when she learned it.Unexpectedly, she took a glance at them casually and then ordered a servant to push the cake there as if nothing had happened. The cake would be cut by Edwin.However, Sharon exclaimed with a worried expression, "My God, Mr. Atherton, what’s wrong with your face?"While speaking, she saw the injuries on Cedrick's face and immediately questioned him. "Mr. Mason, what have you done? Today is Mr. Atherton’s birthday. He invited you because you are Ms. Clark’s husband. But you beat him black and blue. You’ve gone too far."‘Even Old Madam Atherton didn't interfere in their fight. Young people have their own way to solve problems. What’s Sharon doing now?’ Kelly thought dissatisfiedly. "Ms. Collins, mind your words,” Kelly uttered.Kelly indicated that Sharon should shut u
Chapter 1943"Just 999 dollars! It will bring you a long, happy life together."The vendor stared at Catelyn with eager eyes, frantically trying to sell his products.Cedrick looked down at Catelyn tenderly and asked, "Do you like it?"Catelyn picked up a charm to take a look, smiling, "It's not bad, but is it too expensive?"The charm was a good symbol. However, it was just casually made, not worth that much. This vendor was clearly trying to rip them off."As long as you like it, it has value."Cedrick raised his chin. Eason immediately handed over 10 hundred-dollar bills.The vendor gazed at the dollar bills with glowing eyes, took them with trembling hands, and chose a perfect charm for Catelyn and Cedrick.Cedrick took the charm and connected Catelyn's hand and his with it.His long, slender fingers moved. Even the slightest movement was very pleasant. Coupled with the romantic atmosphere, it was so beautiful.Joanne got excited as she watched them, clamoring, "I want o
Chapter 1942"Oh my, Evelyn made the shop assistant kneel to put her shoes on? That was too much! Does she think she's a noble princess?""Check out this video. Evelyn framed Mrs. Mason at the mall with a big belly.""Even a beast won't harm its children. Evelyn risked her child's life! How can she be so cruel?""Bah! Mr. Mason is handsome and rich. Evelyn actually cheated on him!""Her lover is too ugly. Evelyn has terrible taste.""Ahhh, Evelyn moaned so lewdly in the video. How can this man compare to Mr. Mason? I want to vomit..."As people online questioned and criticized Evelyn, her reputation completely collapsed, and she quickly became notorious.Cedrick became the victim of this incident.Cedrick sat in the car, looking at the responses on the Internet. He nodded and said, "You did a good job."To create the illusion that Evelyn cheated on Cedrick, Eason used AI technology to change Ralph's face into a stranger's in the videos of Evelyn and him having sex. "Thank
Chapter 1941Evelyn's voice paused, and her eyes were vicious and angry as she questioned hysterically, "But I did everything out of love for you!"Cedrick wanted to laugh. "Thank you, Ms. Swan. Although your love makes me sick, I have kindly prepared a gift for you."Evelyn looked at him in fear and confusion when she saw a familiar figure walk in through the door.The visitor was just as tall, straight, and handsome as Cedrick. It was amazing to see any difference in their appearance."It's you? You're Ralph?" exclaimed Evelyn, her stomach lurching.For so many nights, she had sex with Ralph, the imposter. No wonder the baby she gave birth to was so disgusting too."Little bitch, long time no see. I missed you so much."Ralph grinned and walked toward Evelyn with lustful eyes."Go away! Go away!"Evelyn frantically waved her pillow, trying to repel Ralph, but these attacks were like a kitten's playing in Ralph's eyes.Ralph smiled evilly, dragged Evelyn down from the hospi
Chapter 1940A few seconds later, she tore up the piece of paper regardless and looked at Cedrick with crazy eyes, "I'm your wife! It's Mrs. Mason in name only! All of this is a lie. My daughter is your child! And could only be your child!"Cedrick sneered, his deep eyes icy, "Think what you want, as long as you're happy."His voice was deep, pleasant, and charming, but what he said sent chills down Evelyn's spine.Evelyn looked at him incredulously. The smile on Cedrick's lips became even more fascinating. "There's something I forgot to mention. Are you sure the person you married is me? My wife is Catelyn from the beginning."Previous images flashed through Evelyn's mind. She thought of Cedrick's different attitudes. His passion, his impatience... Scene by scene, frame by frame, it was like a horrible movie, making her shiver."Cedrick, you indeed lied to me..."Evelyn stared at Cedrick with hatred, her eyes paranoid and mad."Even if my child is not yours and I didn't marry
Chapter 1939"I'm satisfied," Cedrick smiled dangerously, his eyes emotional.It was a smile that made Evelyn feel extremely alarmed."Then ... show me the baby."Cedrick looked at Evelyn condescendingly, his deep eyes full of coldness. "Eason."Eason respectfully carried the baby over to the hospital bed. "Mrs. Mason, please."Evelyn took the child in surprise and lifted the swaddling blanket on the baby.Although it was a girl, Evelyn gave birth to her. Naturally, Evelyn loved her.Yet the moment she saw the baby's face, Evelyn's face suddenly changed, and she quickly threw the baby away, leaning down and vomiting."No, it's not my baby! It's not my baby!"'How can she possibly be my child?' The baby was deformed. Her little face was bruised. Her eyes, nose, and mouth were all tightly grown together. She looked extraordinarily horrible..."Mrs. Mason, this is your baby!"Eason nimbly caught the baby that almost fell to the floor and brought it back to Evelyn."Take her a
Chapter 1938"Now, all of you, stop talking nonsense and do your job. We'll have an easy time when she has given birth."The doctor reprimanded and turned to go back to his office.Inside the room, Evelyn scrolled through the videos and news with a bitter smile.These days after she came back, Cedrick visited her every day and was photographed by many reporters and media. Now the news was all about her and Cedrick being in love.Yet only she knew that Cedrick always left soon after he came, never staying longer than fifteen minutes.'Is it really because he's too busy working?'When she thought of Summer and Braylon, who came in and out together affectionately, a glint of jealousy flashed in Evelyn's eyes.If only Cedrick could always stay by her side as Braylon did to Summer.Soon, it was Evelyn's due date."Cedrick, I'm so scared..."Evelyn grabbed Cedrick's sleeve, sweating in pain. "I can't take it anymore. I want a C-section with general anesthesia..."With a cold ligh
Chapter 1937The nurse rushed to support Evelyn.Evelyn looked flustered and headed back to the ward."Has anyone touched my things?"Evelyn came back like a different person. The condescension she had when she first arrived disappeared.'Braylon is no ordinary man. What if he really wants to help Summer get back at me?'Evelyn subconsciously rubbed her belly. She mustn't let anything happen to her child. She called the nurse and said coldly, "Ask the doctor to come here! I suspect someone has poisoned me."The nurse gave her a frightened look and murmured, "Mrs. Mason, how is this possible?""I don't care! Go get the doctor to check everything in the room. I will not allow anyone to hurt my child!" Evelyn yelled in a stern voice as her eyes went crazy.The nurse called the doctor in fear, and the doctor came, checked everything, and said resignedly, "Mrs. Mason, we assure you that everything here is qualified and absolutely free of any harmful substances. You can relax."Eve
Chapter 1936Evelyn nodded with satisfaction and asked with a smile, "Did Cedrick arrange this for me?"Eason thought to himself, 'Mr. Mason has no time for her.' Yet he smiled, "Of course, Mrs. Mason. If there's nothing else, I'll go back now."Evelyn smiled and nodded, "Go ahead. There are so many nurses here. They can take care of me."Cedrick had arranged the best labor and delivery room for Evelyn. Three nurses worked 24-hour shifts, so she would have someone to serve her at any time.Evelyn walked into the glass corridor, looking out at the sunshine and green grass. Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure."Who's that woman on the bench?"Evelyn's eyes went cold as she frowned and asked the young nurse next to her.The young nurse came over and asked with a puzzled look, "Mrs. Mason, which one do you mean?" "The old woman on the bench."A sneer appeared on Evelyn's lips, and her tone was acerbic.The nurse gave Evelyn a surprised look. "This lady is Mrs. Hensley, who live
Chapter 1935Cedrick was silent for a moment, counting the time. Indeed, Evelyn's due date was approaching.The smile on his mouth grew colder as he thought about what was going to happen."I'll have Eason pick you up.""I know you're busy. It's okay to have Eason pick me up, but I want to see you as soon as I get back."Evelyn smiled sweetly, not bothering with these details.As long as Cedrick cared about her, it was the same whoever came to pick her up.Evelyn touched her round belly, and her expectant face gradually became worried.'It's said that a sharp belly predicts a son and that a round belly predicts a daughter. My belly is so round. Will I have a daughter?'Meanwhile, Cedrick hung up the phone, casually threw it to the bedside, lay back down, and pulled the soft Catelyn into his arms.Half asleep, Catelyn heard Evelyn speaking arrogantly on the phone and slumped against Cedrick's chest."Evelyn's coming back?"Cedrick nodded slightly, a little impatient. "She's
