Chapter 358

Penulis: Velvet Antler
"He won't succeed," interjected Cedrick, cutting off Javier from continuing.

"It's better to be safe than sorry." The worried Javier nervously continued, "Nine has always been a cunning man, and no one knows who's working with him. Cedrick, you should remove Catelyn from the company. Let me help you—"

Cedrick glared at him and rolled the car window up. "Drive!"

Javier sighed deeply. 'Has Cedrick been lured senseless by a woman? I must find a way to kick Catelyn out!'

That afternoon.

Catelyn got out of the car and felt anxious for the rest of the day.

The last thing she wanted to do was to betray Cedrick. Even if it was for her sons, he was their father!

Still, what was she supposed to do, being under the pressure of such an aggressive man?

Her sons and she became the casualties of a battle between two relatives the moment she got forcefully involved.

"Catelyn." Winnie tapped her fingers on her table when she blanked out. "Mister Cedrick had requested for me to guide you. Pl

    Javier pursed his lips together and hopped out of the office.He did not resume his work right away, instead sitting in front of his computer and taking out his smartphone to type out a text.[Be more alert tonight. Make sure everything goes smoothly.]He quickly received a reply.[Consider it done, sir.]Javier thus clicked out of his messaging app to his camera app, switching it to self mode to look at his reflection. He rubbed his chin and was pleased with how handsome he looked from this angle.…The sky grew darker, while the clouds were blacker than usual like it was brewing for a storm.It was 11 p.m. when Catelyn finished her work. She had done verifying all the numbers and cleaned them up before handing the flash drive back to Winnie."I'm done with these, Miss Winnie.""Alright, you can leave the office," said Winnie as she accepted the drive."Aren't you leaving? It's after eleven," Catelyn asked, surprised."I'll leave shortly. Don't wait up." Winnie did not exp

    Catelyn did not reply."Maia was with him for four years, yet you came out of nowhere and snatched him! I warn you: if you dare betray him in any way, I'll feed you to the sharks!""...""Are you listening to me?"Catelyn sensed danger at that moment and, grabbing onto Javier's arm, sprinted toward the parking lot. "These people are dangerous. Run, and don't look back!"Javier leaned forward from the sudden impact.He turned around to find that the bikers were getting closer to them. The bikes stopped and a few men in leather jackets and helmets got down from their bikes with bats in their hands.Javier wanted to curse at the riders but stopped himself when he saw them.He internally cursed himself. These men were not whom he had called for!They looked far too intimidating and ruthless.Where did they come from then?Catelyn dragged Javier away, which prompted the men to chase after her."Stop running!"Catelyn merely picked up the pace. It would be stupid for anyone to s

    The yells and footsteps of the men disappeared in another direction.Javier held his breath and hid quietly under the trash can.At that moment, he felt a sudden rush of regret. If it was not for him, this might not have happened.Still, how did the men know that Catelyn would leave the building at this hour?Javier fell into deep contemplation.…Catelyn kept running barefoot on the gravel road, and the soles of her feet had been cut open by the rough sands, so much so that it was excruciating.She could not stop running, though. She could not begin to imagine what would happen if they caught her.Once Javier was safe and managed to get help, she would be fine.Catelyn summoned every bit of her zeal solely from that belief alone and kept on sprinting, but outrunning the gangsters was impossible.Soon enough, Catelyn was surrounded.…Cedrick returned to Mason Estate once he was done with the gathering, but at this moment, he was quite tired yet.Sweat rained from his body

    "Don't play dumb with me! You're Cedrick's woman, so you should know what I'm talking about," sneered the man with a sinister smirk.Catelyn felt her soul leave her body when she realized that they knew about her relationship with Cedrick.Who were those people? Were they David's men?"I really don't know… You got the wrong person!" She vehemently shook her head."Oh, you don't know?" The man scoffed coldly and growled, "If you don't tell us, I'll cut your face up and ruin your beauty! Cedrick would surely dump you then."The man traced the back of the knife along Catelyn's skin, the icy-cold metal sending shivers throughout her body as every hair on her body raised. Her neck was strained as she leaned her head back, and the back of her shirt had been completely soaked with cold sweat.Still, her answer never changed."I don't know, I swear! No matter how many times you ask, my answer will be the same!"She could not do it, whether it be for herself or Cedrick.If she refused

    "Cedrick, can I participate in getting the reward?" Javier raised his hand up greedily, traces of guilt evident on his youthful face.He had joined Mason Group without telling his mother, and because of that, she punished him by cutting off his pocket money when she found out."If it wasn't for the fact that you're my cousin, you wouldn't even be here right now." Cedrick glared at him coldly.Javier felt a chill down his spine.He had never seen Cedrick acting the way he did.Cedrick had never looked at him with such a cold look before; it was like he was looking at a stranger."Cedrick, Catelyn and I really had been played! All I did was call a few friends to capture her and put some fear in her to see if she'd betray you. I didn't expect actual gangsters to show up!""The consequence is what matters to me!" Cedrick cut him off coldly, sounding like he could barely tolerate him.Javier dared not to look at Cedrick and hung his head low like a child that had been punished."I'

    Even though Catelyn did not want to admit it, it was obvious that she had slowly fallen for how Cedrick cared for her and pampered her.The moment she saw him walking toward her, back-facing the light source, he looked like a hero that had just descended from above, coming to rescue her from the darkness. There was a voice in her head that was telling her that—She had fallen for him."What else am I doing here? For the view?""..."Catelyn's gratitude vanished within seconds.Cedrick stared at her battered, dirt-covered feet. Her toes were curled up, and traces of dried blood were seen in between her toenails, along with specks of sand and dirt.Catelyn felt him observing her feet and rubbed her feet together in an attempt to rub the dirty leaves and dirt off.He put his arm behind her back and thighs and hoisted her up in an instant.Catelyn's lips parted slightly as she hesitated for a brief moment before looping her arms behind his neck and nuzzling into his chest as if sh

    The biker gang went as far as kidnapping an employee from Mason Group's building and dragged her to the city's outskirts, only to release her eventually.Not only that, but they even believed that she was telling the truth, or better yet, afraid of getting arrested for murder?Why would men like them be afraid of death if they dared to do all that in the first place?"Did you manage to see their faces? If you did, I'll ask the policemen to come take a statement from you once you've recovered mentally," said Winnie, trying to lighten the mood. "It'd be for the best if they could be arrested so you don't have to worry about them anymore in the future."Catelyn fell silent.Winnie saw how pale she looked and felt her forehead. "Why do you look so pale? Did you get a cold?"She then looked at Cedrick and said, "Cedrick, Miss Catelyn's hands are freezing. Please turn the temperature up."Cedrick looked at Catelyn, his gaze darkening with conflict and his lips pursed tightly.Catelyn

    Catelyn's eyes never left Cedrick the entire time.His facial features were already well-defined, but his face looked even sharper with him being tense.Cedrick might look composed from the outside, but Catelyn could feel that he was not all that calm at the moment."Cedrick, I didn't betray you..." Catelyn spoke up after having mustered her courage."Mhm," Cedrick replied loosely.Catelyn quickly stretched out her slender fingers and held his hand, her eyes focused on his. "I know that I slip up sometimes, but I'm serious this time—please believe me!" cried Catelyn. "No matter what happened, I didn't reveal any of that information to the outside world!"Catelyn was so anxious that her explanations were a little incoherent.She used to not care about what Cedrick thought of her, but things have changed."Think about it: when Javier and I came out of the company, those motorcyclists were waiting for us since morning! Also, they were just trying to intimidate me into confessing,

    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.
