Chapter 1837

The aging husband and young wife, who seemed to be in a strained relationship, were sitting on the sofa, waiting for Cedrick to come back and explain himself. But after breakfast was finished, Summer suddenly felt uneasy.

Her heart felt an inexplicable pull, causing it to pound.

The servant brought a cup of coffee, and she downed it. Unfortunately, the unease grew stronger instead of subsiding.

They continued to wait and watch the time tick away.

"Aunt Kelly." Summer called for the housekeeper and frowned. "Didn't Cat say that she would be back today? Why is there still no news?"

Aunt Kelly was not much older than Summer. They were quite close twenty years ago, but now Summer also called her Aunt Kelly, which made her somewhat upset.

"Mr. Mason called her in the morning, and she said that she would be back by lunch. It's almost time."

Braylon lost his patience, looking at his wristwatch. "It's already 11:30, and she should have been back by now."

When she saw Cedrick and Edwin searching for Catelyn crazily, her eyes burned with hatred and viciousness.‘Hope Catelyn is dead! Cedrick even followed her to jump from the parachute!‘If one falls into the water from a height and the water is calm without any ripples, the water will be as hard as a huge stone, and they will get hurt or even die as if they jump from a building!‘Isn’t it said that the rich cherish their lives very much? Cedrick is willing to die for Catelyn!’With a rumbling noise of propellers, Braylon and Summer arrived.After the helicopter landed, Summer walked off the helicopter first. She was unsteady on her feet, and Braylon took her by the arm. Her face was pale, and her eyes were red. Obviously, she had cried.She stare

    Chapter 1839Summer was intimidated by the fierce gaze of Evelyn, feeling a bit guilty. If she provoked Evelyn, Evelyn might refuse to treat Cedrick and the two children. 'But where is Catelyn now?' She wondered."I hit you, so what? You shameless homewrecker!" Summer shot back.Evelyn had always valued her appearance, which captivated countless men in the village.Enraged, she disregarded the occasion and lunged at Summer.She moved faster than the others reacted.As Evelyn shoved Summer to the ground, Braylon's hand continued to reach for her, yet it found itself grasping at air as she slipped away.His face darkened, and he tried to separate the two when Joanne shouted out loud, "How dare you hurt Summer? You will be sorry!"Braylon felt a gust of wind passing by, and Joanne joined the fight.The three women wrestled on the ground.Evelyn was still weak after parachuting down, so facing the two women, she soon lost ground.Joanne flipped over and sat on top of her.Summe

"What's wrong?""My belly... hurts..." Summer weakly forced the words out of her mouth and bent down even lower.Hearing the sound, Joanne kicked Evelyn in the stomach and hurriedly got up. "Summer, were you hurt by Evelyn? Braylon, why are you still standing there? Call the doctor!"Braylon was worried that Catelyn might have been hurt when she jumped into the sea, so he brought a doctor with him.He glared at Joanne and Evelyn, full of blame, but in the end, he didn't say anything.Instead, he picked up Summer and headed toward the helicopter."It's okay. The doctor will be here soon...""It hurts. Maybe... I..." Summer muttered, her voice trailing off.In a hurry, Braylon didn't hear her clearly, and the doctor happened to arrive, so he handed her over to the doctor.Summer had alread

Joanne's eyes widened in surprise, staring straight at Braylon.After a few moments, Braylon calmly asked the doctor with a slightly grim face, "What did you just say?""I ... I..." The doctor was terrified by Braylon's intimidating aura, and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead.'Is Mr. Hensley happy or unhappy? Why does he look so horrifying? Could it be that the baby in Mrs. Hensley's belly is not his child? Come to think of it, he seems to be fifty years old.'"Answer me!" Braylon yelled in a stern voice."I said the wrong thing in a moment of excitement. Mr. Hensley, please don't be angry. I just checked Mrs. Hensley's body and found out that she was pregnant for about a month or so. There is not much equipment here, so she has to go to the hospital for a checkup about the fetus's detailed condition..." the doctor explained with trepidation. After all, Summer wasn't young, and it was dangerous for her to be pregn

He doesn’t want to have the baby at all!’Summer became more childish and pushed Braylon out of the room. “Don’t take me as an excuse. Even if I didn’t say so, you would still ask me to have an abortion! Alright, I’m tired and would like to have a rest! Go out to search for Cat!”Braylon frowned and realized that Summer had misunderstood him. He explained, “The reasons that I agree you to have an abortion are not what you think.”Summer arched her eyebrows and compressed her lips silently.Braylon held the back of Summer’s hands slightly. “Sunny, we’re not young anymore. You still haven’t recovered since the accident more than twenty years ago. It’s not because I’m reluctant to have another baby with you. It’s because y

    Chapter 1843Cedrick clenched his fists that were hanging on his sides and suddenly stood up. A fit of dizziness attacked him, but he quickly overcame it and casually went to change his clothes, planning to dive into the water again.Eason noticed that Cedrick was swaying. "You should take a rest. I will find... Mr. Mason!"Before Eason finished speaking, he saw the big man in front of him wobbling and falling forward. His face changed, and he quickly stepped forward to support Cedrick."Help! Mr. Mason fainted!"...Seven days later.It was already deep autumn, and rain drizzled outside the window. The dry yellow leaves rustled as they fell from the branches. It was cold and desolate.Inside the children's bedroom of Mason Estate in Sapphire City, a group of people, young and old, crowded together.Joanne anxiously paced back and forth in the corridor. "I wonder how Ollie is doing?"Edwin followed behind her. "Since Evelyn said she has a way to alleviate Ollie's headache, it

Is acupuncture painful? I will wipe the sweat for you.” Miles stooped over Ollie’s bed, rolled up his sleeves, and wiped Ollie’s sweat slightly. Miles had mixed feelings.Miles hoped that it was him who was sick but meanwhile he was reluctant to be sick.‘If I were sick, I would not be able to search for Mummy with a healthy body.’Ollie stared at Miles with suspicion. ‘Why is Ollie so nice to me today?’In the next second, Miles said with an ingratiating voice, “What would you like to eat? I will make it for you.”Ollie shook his head. He had no appetite. Worries welled up in his eyes. “Dad, is there any news about Mummy?”Cedrick kept the hatred and bitterness in his eyes hidden. He stroked Ollie’s pale face, kissed his forehead, and said gently, “I promise that I will take your Mummy back safe a

It’s time for me to ask for rewards from Cedrick.‘It will be the first night for Cedrick and me. How can I not have any sexy underwear?’Evelyn felt unhappy. She called Albert and knocked at the table.“Are they all the clothes that you prepared for me?”Albert had worked for the Mason family for several decades, and Cedrick regarded Albert as his family member. Of course, Albert felt discontented that Evelyn replaced Catelyn and moved into the Mason Estate, but Evelyn was the only doctor who could cure Cedrick, Miles and Ollie. Thus, Albert replied politely but indifferently, “They’re all the newest clothes. Miss Swan, don't you like them? I can change them for you.”Evelyn ordered angrily, “Miss Swan? Call me Mrs. Mason! Mr. Mason and I are going to get married, but there is no sexy underwear in the wardrobe. What can I wear when I face

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

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.

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

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.
