Chapter 1871

The unpleasantness from before was gone, Braylon held back the sorry he felt for Cedrick and said, "The medical resources here are limited. Just be prepared. When Cat gets better, we will take her back to Sapphire City right away."

Cedrick had no objections. After all, this was only a small town.

When they returned to Sapphire City, he would take Catelyn to Yeal's place.

Maybe Yeal would think of a better solution.

Then, he thought of Felipe, who got Catelyn here, his gaze turned icy.

Not long afterwards, an appalling incident happened in the town.

All the men who had been involved in the abduction and human trafficking of girls strangely went missing. There were no traces of them, as if they had disappeared from the world.

Since they had committed crimes and most of them had killed girls they abducted, the others dared not call the police. Since then, it had become a mystery...

Until not long after, a few naughty boys came to play in Gerald's burnt house...

    Chapter 1872Cedrick slowly leafed through the pages, almost all of Catelyn’s vital signs were substandard.Just as Yeal said, it was already hard enough to keep her in the current state.Back in the small town, for several times, the doctors advised him to give up on treating her and "free her from suffering".Free her from suffering? These words were too easy to say! But did they know what Catelyn meant to him? What was the point of him living alone in this world without her?After reading the pages, Cedrick slowly said in numbness, "Just do anything you can. No matter what happens, I won’t blame you.”Yeal sighed and then discussed the follow-up details of Catelyn’s treatment with him.They talked for three hours in the medical research center. After Braylon left, Yeal looked at Cedrick and said, "Although you look fine, I am a doctor and I can see that you aren’t. You haven't had a good sleep for a long time, have you?""I'm fine," said Cedrick in a low voice. Suddenly, he

    Chapter 1873"Huh." Cedrick suddenly chuckled. He looked composed, making it hard to see the coldness in his eyes, "She wants houses, cars, and companies, yet is still not satisfied. She wants me to declare Catelyn dead now?'Braylon's heart beat fast. There came the rustles of leaves from outside the window and he hurriedly replied, "I will tell Ralph to turn her down.""No need," Cedrick stopped him and said, "Register a new company with Evelyn as the legal person. Satisfy all her other wishes."Braylon was caught stunned. He doubted if he heard it right. Since Catelyn fell into a coma, no one dared to mention even the word "death" to Cedrick, but now, did he mean... Declaring Catelyn dead for real?Cedrick didn't say more, but waved his hand and motioned for him to leave. He then took a cotton swab, dipped it wet in water, and moistened Catelyn's lips for her. After that, he massaged her hands and feet for her. As if she was only asleep in bed, he did it all gently and didn't w

Evelyn, I'm sure you can understand."Evelyn pouted and complained.It would be an honor for her to marry Cedric, but she could not flaunt it."If you don't like it, we can wait until Catelyn's death is announced.""No!" Evelyn got anxious upon hearing this. It took her a lot of effort to get Cedrick to agree to marry her, waiting might bring about changes. She hurriedly said, "Just let the staff come and register our marriage. But tell them to take this as a priority, or I won't let them go!""Okay, Mrs. Mason."Braylon said with sarcasm, turned around, and left.The happy news came too suddenly. Evelyn was elated and felt it was surreal.She covered her chest and felt her beating heart. It was the most amazing news, was it not?She intende

He came up to Catelyn quietly, kissed her cheek gently, tucked her IN, and said lightly, “I’m sorry that I forgot to give you a morning kiss.”Catelyn was motionless and didn’t give him any response.Cedrick had gotten used to it. He smoothed away a wisp of hair from Catelyn’s eyes. “I dreamed you last night again. In my dream, you were still a student. You wore a blue school uniform and went to school with a group of peers. There was a cherry tree at the school gate. I saw you standing under the cherry tree and smiling happily. Don’t you feel amazing? We didn’t know each other at that time, but I felt that it was how you looked like. You were carefree.”After he smoothed away her hair, he stood up and signaled to the nurse to push Catelyn in.The lights were turned on outside the oxygen treatment room. The treatment resumed.The door was closed tightly. Cedrick sat on the bench i

The shrill alarm sounded and broke the peace in the operating room. All the doctors and nurses panicked. They rushed to prepare all kinds of instruments for first aid.  The air in the operating room was tense.  Bee--  Suddenly, a pitched alarm sounded. The Heart Rate Monitor showed a horizontal line, which meant Catelyn's heartbeat stopped!  Cedrick immediately held his breath. His bloodshot eyes stared at the horizontal line. He was desperate to see the horizontal line change in the next second. But after a few seconds, the line didn't change, and Cedrick felt like it was a century.  The alarm tone was piercing...  Cedrick was freaked out. Suddenly, his pupils dilated and he vomited blood!  Blood spilled from the corner of his mouth and stained his white shirt...  Cedrick felt dizzy and the world faded away. He then fainted.

    Chapter 1877At times, her mind was flooded with images of Evelyn's relentless harassment in the ancient village. Other times, the scene shifted to her being overpowered by Gerald. And all of a sudden, the image turned into a terrifying hand firmly clasping her head, submerging her underwater and suffocating her."Go to hell..."The chaotic fragments of memories continuously flashed through her mind, and the last recollection appeared to freeze: She dangled in mid-air, a hundred meters above the ground, resolutely releasing the safety buckle of her parachute.In the very next moment, she descended like a kite with a severed string, devoid of equilibrium or assistance, plummeting into the chilling depths of the sea.That terrifying suffocation feeling struck again...She couldn't breathe at all.What should she do?"Don't..."Catelyn suddenly woke up from the nightmare, and her abrupt movement accidentally tugged at the intravenous line in her right hand. She glanced around the

Cedrick’s eyes were as deep as the rough sea. Hesitation welled up in his eyes. He strode towards Catelyn.“Cedrick...”“Let’s go to a place.”Cedrick lifted the quilt and carried Catelyn in his arms.Catelyn put her arms around his neck habitually and felt his warm breath.Cedrick walked out of the medical base. Eason had arranged a helicopter in advance. When Catelyn saw the helicopter, her pupils contracted. She looked at Cedrick in confusion.“Is the place far away?”Cedrick observed her expression.‘Yale is right. Catelyn is afraid of helicopters subconsciously.’Cedrick shook his head, “No, not at all.”...The propellers started to rotate, and the helicopter took off gradually.Catelyn sat in a safety seat and didn’t have the guts to look down.

Catelyn should have been happy about Cedrick's news, but she felt sore in her heart. She was silent for a few seconds before she said, "Can we go home now? I want to see the kids."  Cedrick hesitated for a few seconds. Then he replied in a deep voice, "Ollie's still in therapy and you just woke up. Yale said you need to be under observation. When you feel better, I'll bring the kids to see you."  Catelyn nodded. She didn't insist.  "I want to have a video call with them."  "No problem. I'll have Albert arrange it."  ...  During Catelyn's stay at Yale's medical center, she rarely went on the Internet. She was only allowed to watch TV shows occasionally to kill time because Yale said her nerves were broken and she had to stay emotionally calm. News on the Internet might disturb her pe

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.

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.
