"T—Thank you."

Cedrick eyed Catelyn's dress coldly. His expression darkened when he was once again reminded that she came with Edwin, so he tightened his grip around her wrist and said, "Since when have you spellbound Edwin?"

Catelyn scowled in pain due to Cedrick's grip. Try as she did, she failed to break free from their tug of war and, instead, ended up even closer to one another.

"Mister Atherton needed a plus-one, and I happened to have an invitation to this event. We're not what you think we are."

"What I 'think', huh?" Cedrick gritted out. "And what is it that I'm thinking?"

Catelyn was slightly frustrated at not being able to escape his grip, but the more she panicked, the more she tried to act composed. She extended her hand and brushed her finger past Cedrick's jawline carelessly, saying, "Master Cedrick, if you continue to be so restless with seeing me by Mister Atherton's side, I might get the wrong idea."

"What idea is that?"

Catelyn chuckled silently as she purpose

    Both Cedrick and Catelyn darkened at Maia's words.Hooker? Paid?Not only was this an insult to Catelyn, but it was also an insult directed at Cedrick. He had never imagined that he would hear such a word coming out of Maia's mouth.Catelyn gritted her teeth as she desperately tried to remain calm. "Yes, I do remember the rules of the Clark family. I won't—""Rules? How dare you even mention that word?!" The anger burnt away the last ounce of composure within Maia, and she screamed in frustration, "Your mother ran away with some guy after giving birth to you, so where did you learn the rules again? I heard that you bore a son out of wedlock, so I'm afraid that you're just like your mom, and any guy would do it for you! How lustful!"Catelyn finally ran out of guilt and patience. She slowly clenched her fists and stared coldly at Maia. "You have no right to make any comment on my mother. If you suspect that something is going on between me and Cedrick, ask him yourself. Why bother

    "I'm positive!"Catelyn froze. She had been offended by Maia and words just came flying out right after. If the order she was given were to cause conflicts between two families, she would rather quit.She could always find another job anyway, and she would not starve so long as she had all her limbs.Just as she was about to interfere, Cedrick said, "As you wish. Let's call off the engagement."Silence instantly loomed over them.Maia's smug smile froze at this, her eyes widening in disbelief as she gaped at Cedrick, wondering if she had heard him wrong.'Did he just say...he'd call off the engagement?!'Catelyn, too, glanced at Cedrick and thought to herself, 'H—He's calling off the engagement?'She then gingerly tried to smoothen out the situation but stopped when Cedrick shot her a stern stare.His piercing stare was locked onto Maia as he continued, "You can announce this, and I'll take the blame. You can come up with whatever reason to explain this away, and I'll talk to

    Maia thought it was Cedrick, returning to her. She looked up in surprise, only to see Richard before him. The light in her eyes faded and was replaced by disappointment."Why are you here?""Maia, I...I heard everything." Richard wiped away her tears endearingly like she was the most precious person to him. "Cedrick doesn't even know how to appreciate you, so why should you love him? I love you, and I'll marry you once you end your engagement!""Go away!" Maia clenched onto the fabric on her chest and snapped, "I want Cedrick. I want the position of Missus Mason. Who do you think you are?"She tried to shove Richard away, but he grabbed onto her hand when he caught a whiff of her scent and planted a kiss on the back of her hand. "I'll do anything for you. As long as you're willing to let me, I'll do whatever you want me to!""Don't touch me. Go away!" Frustrated, Maia tried to shove him away, but Richard's kiss landed on her face and dried her tears.Her struggle weakened as she

    "Since the Clarks went bankrupt, Jamie broke it off with Catelyn, so it's no wonder that she hates Missus Mason.""What exactly is going on?"Everyone lowered their voices and discussed as they scanned Catelyn and Lori.Lori's chest heaved and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Come see this, everyone. Catelyn is a sl*t by nature and got pregnant with my son's child when she was just a teenager!"Mister Atherton, you don't know this, but Catelyn has always been great at putting men under her spell. Don't get fooled by how fragile she appears on the outside!"Furious to find out that Catelyn had locked her mother inside the bathroom, Queenie chimed in, "No matter what my mother did, Catelyn, she's old and is your senior. How could you lock her in the bathroom?"Lori and Queenie's words had caught the attention of everyone around them.When Jamie heard the commotion, he glanced over, only to realize that his sister and mother were causing a scene and was instantly embarrassed."Mo

    Catelyn's bottom line was her family. No matter what others have said about her father, Ezekiel would always be the gentle, loving father who gave her the world."Pah!" Lori spat viciously.Not a moment later, Catelyn grabbed one of the wine glasses from the tray next to her and tipped it downward, pouring all the wine onto Lori's heels.Splash!"Gah!" Lori shrieked and jumped backward hysterically. "My heels! Catelyn Clark, you—!"These heels are designed by the most famous designer in Paries, LR, and they'd only produce nine hundred ninety-nine pairs of these! My future daughter-in-law gave this to me as a gift, and it's worth over a million!"Lori's shrieks grabbed the attendees' attention, and they stared at her heels.The high-heeled shoes seemed to be coated in gold, and the heels, in particular, were about 11 centimeters in length. Gold leaves and diamonds decorated the front and back of the laces, and the 'L' logo on the sides of both heels was impressively striking.Th

    How could Catelyn possibly compensate for such expensive heels, though?Everyone held their breaths in anticipation.Lori extended her hand to Catelyn and said, "I've apologized. Seeing that you're still junior to me, I won't make this any more difficult than it is for you. Just write me a check worth a million.""A million?" Catelyn chuckled. "Missus Mason, your heels can't be worth over three thousand, yet you're trying to scam a million out of me? How could you even think of this?"Very often than not, the most expensive parts of this type of shoe were the gem and diamonds on it, along with the brand and design."Three thousand? You're just saying this because you don't want to pay me back, right? This pair of heels is worth one million! Go ask Louella if you don't believe me." Lori's features twitched in rage as she pointed at Louella.The others turned their attention to Louella following the direction Lori was pointing at. Louella was not used to the attention, but she none

    Cedrick's words represented authority, and there was not a soul that would doubt Mason Group's jewelry appraiser.The organizer, Jones, beamed. "That's great! It's wonderful that you're willing to help, Mister Mason..." He hastily commanded his men to set up the projector so that everyone could see the appraising process and proof of who was right.Catelyn waited quietly for the appraiser to get online.Soon, the appraiser's face appeared before the enormous screen in the middle of the hall.Lori took off her heels and carefully wiped away the wine on them, before taking them toward the camera smugly. "Kind sir, please inspect these for me to see how much they're worth. Someone dares to accuse me of wearing fake diamonds! I have to set her straight!"On the screen, an awkward expression appeared on the appraiser's face as soon as he saw the heels. He even seemed hesitant to make his comment.Queenie got closer and said, "Go on, then. Are these real or not?"The appraiser remaine

    Lori never expected her son, Jamie would shun her, too."Hang on," came a cold voice that pierced the silence.It was Cedrick, and he was not about to let Lori go that easily.The organizer, Jones turned to look at him in fright."M—Master Cedrick, do you need anything else?"Cedrick's eagle-like eyes pierced through the air and scanned past Catelyn, landing on Lori.One look from him was all it took for Lori to feel as though someone had grabbed her by the throat; her blood ran cold as it became increasingly difficult to breathe. She shivered and was instantly overwhelmed by the urge to leave as soon as possible. However, what Cedrick said next shattered her completely."Missus Mason has disrupted the order of the ball and assaulted a person in public. Isn't it far too casual for you to leave just like this?"Lori turned to face Cedrick without a trace of her earlier smugness, and she had nothing but fear left.Cedrick was the eldest son of the Mason family. Lori, too, could

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

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.

    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

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

"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

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.

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.

    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.
