Chapter 1890Evelyn demanded that she must be dressed up as a noble woman. She wore a gorgeous gown that outlined her sexy body. Her neck was slim and slender. Standing under the light, she looked like an elegant swan. She would be the focus of the party. Cedrick was sitting on the couch, reading a business magazine. His legs were folded. He looked absent-minded. Evelyn walked out of the dressing room followed by a group of people. "Honey, how do I look tonight?" She asked Cedrick with nervousness and anticipation. She had been begging Cedrick to take her to the party after she learned about the charity party tonight. Cedrick had taken her to parties before, but he'd never formally introduced her as his wife. The guests at tonight's charity dinner were either rich or powerful. If Cedrick introduced Evelyn to those people, she would have no worries ever again. Cedrick didn't want to have a wedding, so Evelyn had no choice but to use this way to introduce herself
Chapter 1891"Oh, it turns out to be you, the wife dumped by my husband. Instead of hiding at home, you have the nerve to attend the charity banquet."As the woman in front of her made threatening gestures, Catelyn only felt funny. But she didn't stoop down to argue with Evelyn. Instead, she turned to leave.Evelyn sneered and extended her foot in front of Catelyn, waiting for the latter to make a fool of herself in front of everyone."Mommy!" Miles exclaimed from behind her.Evelyn's petty trick didn't escape her eyes. Remaining calm, Catelyn pretended to fall and took the chance to throw her wine at Evelyn.The crimson liquid dripped down, staining Evelyn's white dress and clinging to her skin.Evelyn brushed her wet hair, trembling and glaring at Catelyn. "How dare you pour wine on me!"In a fit of anger, she swung her arm to slap Catelyn, but before her hand could fall, Cedrick grabbed her wrist so heavily that her bones nearly crumbled."What are you doing?"The commotio
Chapter 1892Cedrick nibbled on her earlobe and breathed heavily. The year was almost over, so the company was busy, and his poison needed to be suppressed with Evelyn's acupuncture. All told, it had been over half a month since he'd last seen Catelyn.Hearing his steady heartbeat, Catelyn pushed him away and wrapped her arms around his waist, greedily sniffing his scent.'He seems to have lost some weight.''She seems to have lost some weight.'They thought at the same time, and in the dim light of the streetlamps, they said almost in unison, "You've lost weight."There was another silence.After a while, Cedrick's hoarse murmur came from above. "Who is the man that just talked to you?"He had been missing her so much, but it gave those guys a chance.Catelyn wanted to tease him. She reached out and drew circles on his chest. "There were many men talking to me. Which one are you asking about?"Cedrick lowered his head to kiss her hard as a punishment."You're pissing me off
Chapter 1893Not long ago, it was widely spread that Cedrick and Evelyn were a sweet couple. It was well-known that Evelyn was Cedrick’s new beloved wife. Thus, these rich ladies all came up to greet Evelyn.“Mrs. Mason, you’re so beautiful. Mr. Mason is handsome. Mr. Mason and you are a perfect match for each other.”“That’s it.”These rich ladies smiled at Evelyn obsequiously and flattered her.Evelyn became complacent. She raised her head and looked at others haughtily. She was as proud as a peacock.After she dealt with these rich ladies, she planned to continue to go to find Cedrick. A tall man with wire-rimmed glasses was walking towards her. His gaze was sharp.“Mrs. Mason, nice to meet you. My surname is Jensen. I have been interested in you for a long time. Shall we make friends?”Evelyn took the man’s name card from his hands. ‘It seems that he is a general manager. He should be rich.’She nodded haughtily, “I will take your name card.”The man whispered in her ea
Chapter 1894Catelyn and Cedrick received a teasing call from Edwin, who mentioned that Evelyn almost turned the banquet hall upside down because of Cedrick's disappearance.Catelyn and Cedrick quickly got dressed.Cedrick held her and kissed her lovingly. "Give me more time. It won't be long before Evelyn is brought down.""Okay. I've always believed in you." Catelyn hugged him back, trying to reassure him.From the Bluetooth earpiece came Edwin's jealous voice. "Come on, guys. I'm still on the phone. Cat, come out quickly. I'll send Ralph to handle Evelyn."Blushing with embarrassment, Catelyn quickly hung up the phone and pushed Cedrick away. "Stay here. I'll go out. Be careful, and don't let Evelyn see you."Cedrick nodded slightly and watched her leave.Once Catelyn left the lounge, she saw Edwin and Miles waiting for her with mischievous smiles on their faces.Catelyn walked over with feigned nonchalance and smoothed her messy hair. "It's a little hot in the room, and I
Chapter 1895Evelyn rubbed her temples and slowly sat up, feeling a dull ache in her lower abdomen.She had been “shoved” to the ground by Catelyn, which was the only thing she remembered before she passed out. And her stomach hit the ground hard...Her eyes burning darkly, she was about to explode. Just then, a doctor heard the commotion and came over with a bright smile. "Congratulations, Mrs. Mason, you're pregnant!"Pregnant?Evelyn was stunned for a few seconds, and then she trailed her fingers across her stomach with great joy.As a doctor herself, she didn’t keenly awake to changes in her body. Recently, she had been feeling tired and lethargic, but she hadn't associated these symptoms with pregnancy. Cedrick would be glad to hear this news, wouldn’t he?Feeling the pain in her stomach, she quickly took her own pulse. It was not until she confirmed that the fetus was fine that she felt relieved.Cedrick and Catelyn rushed over when they heard Evelyn wake up.Evelyn coul
Chapter 1896"Just focus on recovering. I have some things to attend to," Cedrick said blandly, turning to leave.Evelyn immediately tried to get up and chase after him. "Won't you stay with me a little longer?"Catelyn had just left, and Cedrick was leaving too, which aroused her suspicion.Cedrick frowned at her. "How can I feel at ease staying with you if the company affairs are not settled? Our future is long, and this can't wait."Delighted to hear that their future was long, Evely nodded in agreement. "Come back to me when you are done."Cedrick nodded and left the ward without hesitation.Evelyn lay on the bed, stroking her belly with a tender and joyful expression on her face."Baby, you must grow up healthy. I hope you'll be a boy."If it were a boy, her position as Mrs. Mason would be even further consolidated. One day, everything in the Mason Group would belong to her son.As for the two kids born by Catelyn, she would not let them get a penny.After leaving the w
Chapter 1897Noticing that Joanne felt upset, Catelyn comforted her immediately, “Having too many kids isn’t a good thing. It’s too tiring!”As soon as Catelyn finished speaking, she heard noises from outside.“Aunt Kelly, what’s going on outside?”The butler, Aunt Kelly walked in with a long face. She said respectfully, “A middle-aged man came here and said that he was Madam Joanne’s relative! He’s making a scene outside and reluctant to leave.”“My relative?” Joanne felt confused.After she ran out of the Winters family, she almost cut all ties with her relatives.Catelyn was her best friend.Seeing that Joanne was in confusion, Catelyn felt curious and walked out with Joanne to have a look. A middle-aged man stood at the door of the villa and argued with the guards angrily. The man tried to break into the villa but was stopped by the guards.The middle-aged man shouted, “I’m Mrs. Atherton’s father! How dare you block my way?” As soon as he raised his head and saw Joanne who
