Edwin then fled to Franche to hide and to watch Cedrick's drama up close. "Speaking of which, Ced, how does it feel to be fooled by your own sons? I would probably not experience this. After all, I can't even give birth to a pair of twins."Cedrick threw him a shady look again. Edwin was totally satisfied to see his reaction. "I totally did not expect Kitty to be the woman that you have been searching for the past four years. You always thought the woman from Four Seasons Hotel and Ollie's mother were two different people. What a shame…"Cedrick picked up the glass from the table and tossed it at Edwin. "Shut up!"Edwin dodged and whistled. "Why are you so pissed? Are you jealous to see Catelyn and George together? You asked for this…"Cedrick threw a cold glance at him and then called Eason. "Eason, send a message to Granny Atherton, tell her that Edwin is currently in Franche, so she can arrange for people to come over…""You really are going to tell her." Before Cedrick
Ivan had not gotten a response as he saw Catelyn fast asleep on the chair, just when he was about to continue chatting. He laughed lightly and saw Amy in a sexy bikini as soon as he turned around.A few male colleagues whistled at her as she passed by.He laughed. …Catelyn was uninterested in chatting with Ivan at first and fell asleep soon after. She could faintly hear some colleagues shouting that the match-making event was about to start. She opened her eyes lazily and was shocked to see what was before her eyes.Not only was Ivan next to her, but even Amy also pulled a chair to sit down next to her, her big eyes glaring at her. The match-making activity started, and the first activity was to let any random pair of men and women go onto the stage. The man would need to squat half while carrying the woman. Whichever pair could hold the pose for the longest time would be the winner. The prizes were lucrative. Amy winked at Ivan as soon as she heard the instructions, "
"Can you do me the honors and join me in this game?"Catelyn took one look at Ivan and thought since she had already registered, she had to decide between either Ivan or George…Catelyn held her hand out to George without hesitation. Both of them went to the games area, leaving Amy and Ivan behind. Amy looked at Catelyn with strong repulsion.Such a handsome Amarican man, but again, lured away by Catelyn."Uncle Ivan, let's participate in this…" Amy suppressed her jealousy and grinned at Ivan.Ivan was not reserved in public and his voice was loud. Amy could feel her cheeks burning when he said, "This little b*tch."When Amy knew that he was talking about Catelyn, her annoyance vanished.'Haha, Amarican woman, wait and see how Uncle Ivan will screw you!'…On the stage, George carried Catelyn as soon as the emcee instructed. He was half squatting, steadily. He carried Catelyn horizontally with her arms around his neck."We are just here for fun. If you cannot hold on an
Everyone looked to where she pointed after hearing her scream.A few bodyguards in black suits were escorting a tall, slender man, walking in their direction. As though a rose among the thorns, the man, who was 188cm tall, had short, crisp hair, almost perfect facial features, and was wearing a pair of sunglasses. Nobody could tell his actual emotions underneath those shades. His suit was so perfectly ironed that not a single wrinkle could be found.His strides were steady, and every woman gasped as he walked past. The air was frozen.Catelyn felt an invisible hand clutching her throat. It was Cedrick! Why was he in Franche!?Shouldn't he be working on Project Castle in the City at home?There were only a few meters between them, and Catelyn was already panicking. She felt like a prey being targeted by the beast and was frozen in George's arms. George could sense the unusual reaction from Catelyn and ask, "What happened?""I…" Catelyn tried hard to maintain her compos
Cedrick was forced to a halt.He looked down upon the woman who was kneeling before him and took the shades off with one hand like a tyrant. He used his pointy shoe tip to lift Catelyn's chin, full of mockery. "There are a lot of people who would butter me up, but you are the first one to kneel before me."The way that he lifted her chin with the tip of his shoes was full of disdain. Catelyn could feel her cheeks burning and turning red instantly. She was not shy, she was in rage!Everyone who was originally noisy at the scene fell silent too. Catelyn saw Amy from the corner of her eye. She was looking at her, satisfied. William was not pleased to see Catelyn being impolite toward Cedrick. "Catelyn, what are you doing? Even if you are desperate for exposure, you should not be doing this! Get up now!"Desperate for exposure?Catelyn ground her teeth hard hearing this. She wanted to avoid him but was forcefully pushed before him.She pushed away his shoe angrily and wan
Soon, the event was back in full swing, and the emcee announced the next game, which was a treasure hunt.There was a commemorative plaque of VSA Group hidden in the resort, which was rumored to be invaluable. Whoever could find it would be its legitimate owner…Other than the treasure hunt, people were talking about Cedrick's identity. Catelyn was not in the mood to gossip. She walked to the corner alone and waited until recess time to give Miles and Ollie a call to remind them that Cedrick had appeared. Even though she was wary, she understood one thing very clearly. He was already here, and there was nowhere for her to escape. Even if she could, would she want to live such a life with her two babies, forever on the run?They were still so young, she did not have the heart to take away their sweet childhood.After reminding her two babies, the sky got darker. Catelyn then only realized that she was very deep into the forest, Thankfully, the treasure hunt was ongoing, an
Cedrick watched as her beautiful little face reddened in rage. Her eyes were covered in a thick layer of tears, and her long lashes were trembling agitatedly, like a butterfly who had its wings wet. He felt his heart wrenched. He felt a lump in his throat as he gripped tighter onto her clothes. His eyes grew colder. "What do you mean by 'announced dead as soon as it was born'? Didn't you dump Ollie at my doorstep?"Catelyn looked at him angrily. Then, she suddenly burst into laughter. She had done something that she never thought she would do.She lifted her knee and jammed it right through Cedrick's lower belly. Cedrick was caught off guard. He gasped and hugged his belly in pain. Catelyn surprised herself too. She saw beads of sweat forming on his forehead and immediately turned away and ran."Catelyn Clark, are you looking for death!"Cedrick could barely say anything more. Any lower than where she hit, he would be neutered!Catelyn wiped away her tears and ran
Cedrick could not care less. His actions became even more aggressive. He trapped her within this small space. He suddenly thought about George. "Has he ever kissed you this way?" he said in a hoarse yet sexy tone.Crack!Someone stepped on the branches, near the scrubs, not too far away from the rockery stone that they were hiding at. "Could it be behind the rockery stones?""Let's check it out.""Let's go."The light from a torchlight swept past their surroundings, lengthening the shadows of the scrubs. Catelyn felt as though her soul had almost left her body."You kidnapped my sons just to be together with George?" Cedrick's lips curved up in a smile full of sarcasm, and his long fingers pinched onto her chin. "Answer me! How close is your relationship? Did he kiss you like this?"His interrogation echoed, like a piece of demonic music, amplified. Catelyn had to bear the physical and emotional pressure. She wished to just respond with a silent protest, but she could
