Chapter 1810"I've been jealous for a long time, and you should stay safe.""Okay." Cedrick grabbed her tender hand and locked fingers with her.Catelyn lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling incessantly.Evelyn hated them more and more.Even if she helped treat his illness, no one could guarantee that she wouldn't do anything behind their backs....As Evelyn said, Slade and some wealthy people in the east area had been taking all kinds of precious medicine for years, and as a result, they were highly resistant to drugs.So, they were the first to wake up.Some guards from the west area were lightly poisoned, and they woke up at about the same time.When Slade learned that it was Evelyn who had drugged them, his first thought was that she was using poison to help them regain control.But then Cedrick told them that Evelyn didn't care about their lives or deaths. She only wanted to perish together with them.Everyone was stunned, unable to believe it.Even the fire
Chapter 1811"You wish! Once you appeared, people in the west area began to rebel. To put it simply, I became a prisoner all because of you. I can even give up the honorable identity of the village head's daughter. Do you seriously believe I will save Cedrick's life just because you promise to release me? What about the honor and status I lost?"Catelyn really could not comprehend what was on Evelyn's mind."So, are you just going to wait for death here? You hurt so many people in the west area back then. Now, they all wish to put you to a miserable death. You would be dead for sure without our protection.""Let them bring it on, then. I'm not afraid," snapped Evelyn.The hatred and stubbornness in her eyes caused Catelyn to have a pit in her stomach.Catelyn took a deep breath to calm herself down."You will treat him as long as I divorce Cedrick and let you marry him, right?"Evelyn's eyes finally lit up.She slowly shifted her gaze toward Catelyn and fixed it on her."Will
Chapter 1812"Are you crazy?"Catelyn could not bear it any longer and slammed her palm onto the glass door.The glass door shook violently but quickly returned to its steady-as-a-rock state.Evelyn was totally defiant. "Geniuses are just different. Average folks like you would never understand."Catelyn was left speechless.Her twin sons were also geniuses, yet they had never gone crazy. Instead, they were incredibly adorable."I won't kill myself. If the torment becomes too much for you to take, and you change your mind, have the guards inform me."With that, Catelyn turned and left with resignation.While Evelyn was still crazily taunting Cetalyn, Catelyn had stormed off in a fit of anger.Not long after Catelyn's departure, a hunched figure also quietly made his way into the dungeon.Seth secretly distracted the guards and found the cell where Jasper was imprisoned.At the sight of Jasper, who was battered and on the brink of death, Seth burst into tears.Seth thought
Chapter 1813After raging at Seth, she sobbed with a choked voice. With tears in her eyes, she pleaded, "Help, Jasper! I can't stay here any longer. They've let poisonous insects bite me. It hurts so much.""Don't be afraid, Miss Swan! I'm here. I won't let anyone hurt you anymore." Jasper believed that it was all his fault and blamed himself for not protecting Evelyn well.With that, he tried to snatch the key from Seth's hand.Seth dodged to the side, but he was too old to be a match for Jasper, who was young and strong.With a loud thud, Jasper pushed Seth to the ground with one palm and took the keys from his waist.Seth groaned in pain as the back of his head hit the stone steps. It even bled. But no matter how Seth cried out in pain, Jasper paid no attention and focused only on saving Evelyn.The cell door was opened, and Evelyn took a deep breath of fresh air outside.In the gloomy dungeon, a sinister smirk suddenly crept upon her face. 'Look! I won't die. God always fav
Chapter 1814Catelyn shot Cedrick a fiery glance.She snapped, "Hmph! I should have ignored you and let you die in terrible pain."Inwardly, she added, 'I can't believe that he is still thinking about sex now.""I was just afraid you wouldn't bear to see me suffer." Cedrick smirked. "When you heard I was injured, you cried and snotted all over me. Now, what's with this show of toughness? Come on! Let me give you a hug."Catelyn was dumbfounded and regretted her outburst earlier."Nice try! Don't hug me until your wound gets healed!"She coldly retorted and then turned to get him some water and medicine.She took a white bottle from Cedrick's bag and shook it.As a lot of pills were consumed, the bottle was going empty.Her face turned pale.'Only a few of the virus-suppressing pills provided by Yael remained. What should we do if Cedrick has another relapse? Should we rely on the doctors of the Swan family? But they don't seem to have more remarkable medical skills than Yael
Chapter 1815Slade arranged for a highly skilled medical expert from the Swan family to treat Cedrick. While not as capable as Evelyn, this expert could help alleviate Cedrick's pain to some extent. By offering this help, Slade hoped that no matter what Evelyn did, she would eventually be given a way out.Cedrick gave him a meaningful look. "If she stops stirring up trouble, I'll bring her back safe and sound."Without delay, Catelyn, Cedrick, and their team left the ancient village. Joanne took advantage of a break in filming and rushed over because she couldn't sit still and wait for news from Catelyn and Cedrick. They all gathered in a small city not far from the ancient village.When hearing the conditions set by Evelyn, Joanna was furious. "How can a woman be so shameless? Stealing a married man? It's also Master Cedrick's fault. He's just way too good-looking. If only he weren't such a heartthrob! He should just mess up his face and make her marry an ugly monster. Let
To ease the tense atmosphere, Edwin smiled playfully and glanced at Cedrick. “I don’t expect you to be so charming that those girls in their twenties would have a crush on you. Doomed by the first sight of you, what’s a pity.”“Are you done?” Cedrick interrupted him. Before Edwin continued, Joanne pinched his waist hard.Edwin gasped in pain. “Stop! Stop! I’m your husband, I’m dying of the pain...”Joanne pulsed with anger. “We are worried about Cedrick. Just zip your mouth. My Cat, how bitter her life is.” said she.Edwin had no words for Joanne, thinking, ‘Does the husband matter more or the friend? My status is so low that I couldn't even joke with my friend?’ “Kitty, you see, Joanne only knows you. If we don’t have a daughter, I would doubt that you two were a couple.” said Edwin.Catelyn was speechless to him. She wanted to contradicted him but she was unbale to do so.But Cedrick coldly glanced at Edwin and said grimly, “I don’t care about what you think, but stay away fr
“That’s true, you’ve lost some weight, and even your hands are slimmer.” Ollie also commented seriously.“Are you eagle-eyed?”Although it was inevitable to lose weight as she suffered hardships in the village. However, it was no that obvious. ‘How?’ she wondered. ‘How could they notice it at the first glance?’Cedrick heard the compliant of the brothers, but he just ignored it. Breathing in Puffy’s sweet scent, Cedrick felt that he possessed the world.Cedrick used to touch Puffy’s delicate and fair face with his newly grown stubble.“Oh, it tickles. Daddy, don’t tease me.” Puffy stretched out her chubby hand to push Cedrick’s handsome face.Cedrick raised his eyebrows. “Nine days and 21 hours have passed since I last held you.”Hearing this, Puffy giggled and her face blushed. Then, she kissed Cedrick on his chin. Puffy held his handsome face and pouted, “I know. Daddy, you miss me. I also miss you so much! I haven't even eaten dinner, and I’m so hungry now.”Cedrick squinted
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
