Chapter 1294Something was wrong!Cedrick's sarcastic tone was so strange...Catelyn swallowed and had the illusion of getting into trouble. She mumbled flatteringly, "I was just joking with Charles. He must have conveyed my meaning to you wrongly.""Then explain what you mean by 'don't call me Mrs. Mason, I'll be single soon'.""I was trying to anger him because he lied to me on the mountain that night." Catelyn felt a chill down her back. She hurriedly showed weakness to Cedrick, thinking, 'I'm done for. Cedrick is settling scores with me. What should I do?'The rearview mirror of the Yamaha was broken by the crash just now. Cedrick could not see the expression on Catelyn's face at that moment.But he could imagine...There must be surprise, a bit of smugness, and some apprehension on her face.What a cunning little fox!"What does Charles have to do with you? Did you need to say those things to piss him off? You just wanted me to hear that, right?" Cedrick raised the corne
Chapter 1295The real-life version of Beauty and the Beast?Catelyn did not know what Cedrick had brought her here for. As she was about to struggle out of his arms, she saw Cedrick step into the resort and take her to a villa area...The villa door was locked. Cedrick entered his fingerprint, and the door opened.Obviously, this was one of Cedrick's strongholds.This was probably where he had been waiting to hear from Charles for the past few days.Even though he was willing to bring her here, Catelyn was still upset.Catelyn thought, 'Cedrick would rather tell Charles the truth than tell me. Am I less important to him than a subordinate?'As she was thinking, Cedrick kissed her passionately. Facing his sudden kisses, Catelyn tilted her head to the side.She didn't want to let it go until he made it clear."Stop..." "It was not diffi
Chapter 1296Cedrick was touched as he looked at her worried face. He held down her small hand. "Don't touch it. This kind of mask must be soaked with a specific potion before it can be removed. If it can be ripped off casually, how can I disguise myself?""Didn't you say you were disfigured? I won't feel at ease until I have a look.""What if the disfigurement is serious?" Cedrick asked.Although Catelyn was not a face-judger, she certainly did not want her handsome husband to become an ugly monster. She wondered, 'Could it be that Cedrick was unwilling to reunite with me because he was disfigured?'She softly reassured him, "It's okay. Nowadays, medical technology is so advanced that even burned skin can be repaired, let alone your disfigurement. Besides, you don't live by your face. If you don't feel comfortable with it, you can have a skin graft or cosmetic surgery. I won't dislike you."Cedrick looked at her anxious face, amused."Really? What if Miles and Jennie dislike me
Chapter 1297"What do you know? That woman's adulterer has come. That's why she wants to divorce me!""Adulterer?" Benjamin's eyebrows were knitted tighter. Staying with this "Cedrick" made him so upset. "Cedrick, Catelyn is not such a person! She won't betray you...""Then why did she ask for a divorce but stand me up? Is she fooling me?""Well...""She has said that she will transfer all her property to me as soon as she gets a divorce. Isn't she urging me to divorce her?" The more "Cedrick" thought about it, the more he thought this was the case, and he said angrily, "Bitch! Now she's probably regretting it and doesn't want to give me the money..."Benjamin heard him repeatedly curse, wondering if there was something wrong with his ears.When did Cedrick become so rude?Could it be that he broke his brain and lost his manners at the same time?Fortunately, Catelyn came soon.Moreover, she was accompanied by "Terrence".As soon as he saw the two of them, "Cedrick" glared a
Chapter 1298"Cedrick" looked furious. "Catelyn, you tricked me?""Didn't you trick me first?" Catelyn was not the least bit afraid as she said, "That day at Benjamin's office, you called all the bodyguards away, leaving me alone and being slapped by that Tracy. I was just joking with you. Why were you angry?""You...""Okay, back to business. I will not divorce you, but I can temporarily return the Mason Group's shares to you. Charles said you wanted to do an investment project. I am not an unreasonable person." Catelyn scolded "Cedrick" and then reassured him, making him unable to complain.If things dragged on, there would be other changes. "Cedrick" no longer argued about the topic of divorce. Getting the shares was the most important.Benjamin was shocked to see this couple scheme against each other.How long has it been since the two have turned from loving partners to enemies?After signing the shares transfer contract, Catelyn waved to "Cedrick" and left with "Terrence"
Chapter 1299Maybe the fake Cedrick hoped to seek publicity, so he had invited many media to shoot in the hotel. If it were in the past, it wouldn't happen at all because Cedrick was very low-key and didn't allow media to enter except for shooting commemorative films.The banquet was big tonight. Almost all the guests had prominent backgrounds.Many female stars, who would like to broaden their connections, also attended the banquet…Catelyn and Cedrick didn't go to the banquet together in case the media took photos of them and investigated the disguised identity of Cedrick. Besides, she didn't invite another male partner. Thus, she went to the banquet with Eason.The fake Cedrick was angry with Catelyn, so he didn't give her the invitation.It was rainy and cold tonight. Catelyn wore a dark trench coat outside her dress. When she arrived outside the banquet hall of the hotel and was about to enter, a security guard blocked her."Madam, please show your invitation to me."It wa
Chapter 1300"Mr. Atherton..." Mr. Vincent widened his eyes in a panic. "I'm wrong. I accidentally touched Mrs. Mason and didn't mean to molest her. Please let me off."'I forgot that Catelyn was still from the Atherton family even if Cedrick abandoned her!'Edwin's cousin!'Old Madam Atherton's favorite granddaughter!'"Mr. Vincent, you're humorous. I just shake hands with you. There is no need for you to beg me. But it's a bad habit to molest others. I'd better disable your hand in case you're in trouble again because of that."With a loud sound, Mr. Vincent's hand was broken.He even didn't react...Two seconds later, he screamed in pain.Catelyn frowned disgustedly. It seemed that she needed to find another invitation. She ignored Edwin and Mr. Vincent and went to wait for the next guest.Edwin asked someone to drag Mr. Vincent away. Then he caught up with Catelyn and arched his eyebrow toward her. "You'd rather show the white feather to others than ask me to help you ent
Chapter 1301"Look! The female partners around Mr. Mason are all new young stars in showbiz. There has been no position for Catelyn already!"With her hand being held by Edwin, Catelyn calmly came up to "Cedrick" under stunned or sarcastic gazes."Cedrick" held an unknown young model, Julie, in his arms. Julie had fair skin and looked beautiful. She had big breasts and a V-shaped face. Obviously, she had taken plastic surgeries."Cedrick" asked unfriendlily, "Why do you come here?"Catelyn replied unhurriedly, "It's the banquet of Mason Group tonight. I'm Mrs. Mason, your wife. If I didn't come here, we would give others a chance to attack us. Besides, as long as we're in a good relationship, the Board of Directors won't find fault with us. Do you want them to say that you're not even able to deal with your private relationship?"Edwin echoed Catelyn, but his focus was on Julie. "Ced, you have bad taste. This kind of plastic face is out of date already. Do you prefer leftover?"
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
