Their actions were too swift, catching the little ones off guard. When they finally regained their senses, they were already tucked in the passenger seats at the back of the car, and the doors were slammed shut. They were completely cut off from the outside world…Grandma May was pushed onto the floor as well. "Miles, Ollie! Stop! Who are you? Let go of my children…" Catelyn saw this from afar. She was sweating profusely and ran in their direction with all her might.However, by the time she got there, the car door was already shut. The car engine was revved, and Catelyn could only faintly hear the two babies' desperate calls.Then, not sure what happened next, but they both were shut up abruptly!Catelyn panicked and took her phone out, wanting to call 911."Miss… Miss Clark." Grandma May sobbed while pulling Catelyn's hands and said nervously, "Before you arrived, a man told me something and asked for me to relay it to you."Catelyn could feel her blood boiling, and she ask
"Master Cedrick, I am sorry!" Eason felt chills down his spine and dared not hide it any longer. "I was just thinking of letting you and Miss Clark cool it off a little…"Thud!Suddenly, a blow landed on Eason's abdomen.A human shadow swooped past, and Eason stumbled two steps back from the impact of the kick. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead, and he remained hunched for a long while, but he did not make a single grunt. He had made a decision without consulting authority, and deserved punishment."When did I allow you to meddle in my personal matters? Should I give up my CEO seat to you as well?""Master Cedrick, you know my loyalty to you. I never meant to do that!"Eason bowed deeply. He was an orphan from a very young age. It was Cedrick who paid for his education and recruited him into the company after his graduation.They were of similar age, but Cedrick always had an intimidating aura. Other than his relationship with Catelyn, Eason had never seen Cedrick this
Catelyn approached one lawyer after another, using the money David gave her. "...I'm so sorry, Miss Clark, our lawyers might not have the competence to take on your case.""...Miss Clark, we accepted a big project recently. Our schedules are full.""...There's a legal firm next door. Maybe you should give them a try?"When everyone heard that the counterparty lawyer was Benjamin Anderson, they all backed out and profusely rejected all her offers. Benjamin, Benjamin.He was a demon that everyone was scared of.Catelyn recalled that back in the days when Benjamin's name had intimidated Jamie's lawyer so much that she could easily win the suit without doing much. Did karma finally hit her?Catelyn finally managed to hire an unknown lawyer with a lot of money. The kind that was fresh out of college and just obtained his license.Sometimes, when Catelyn asked about her custody rights, he had to refer to his books for a long while to come up with an answer.Catelyn looked at the
Outside the office tower.The rain poured, and rainwater formed into puddles on the ground. There were not many people walking around due to the thunderstorm.There were two Franch security guards chatting by the entrance. "Look, the woman fainted!" One of them pointed at Catelyn and shouted. "Should we call her an ambulance?" The other one was concerned. "Are you crazy? Master Cedrick had ordered not to allow her to step foot into the office. He must hate this woman very much! Do you want to send her to the hospital? Do you still want to keep your job?""You're right, but she just crashed right in front of the office. It does not look good on us?"The guard then frowned and suddenly said, "Let's move her to the tree by the side. Maybe she will wake up when the rain stops."The guards were about to move Catelyn under the tree. They held Catelyn by her arm and legs and were about to walk to the side…"Who allowed you to touch her!"The guards felt a sharp pain in their sh
Her finger brushed against the lock screen on her phone. It was a photo of the three of them.Miles, Ollie, wait for me. I will not abandon you.After all, all she had to do was to get married. She only needed to marry him and become Missus Mason.She should be feeling happy and grateful about it. There was nothing bad about it!When this thought surfaced in Catelyn, she shocked even herself. Soon, the thought branched out like an ivy plant, and soon it occupied the whole of her mental space……In a private hospital on the top floor. Maia was enjoying the best medical treatment. There were five or six nurses tending to her daily needs. Nonetheless, she was still in a bad mood till the last few days. Richard came by to have dinner with her at night. Maia ordered over twenty dishes. She had her lumbar supported and sat on the soft cushioned seat, looking casual and seductive. Even though she was pregnant, she did not increase her food intake to maintain her body.Richa
Richard frowned even deeper. His gaze swept past Maia's belly and said, "What do you want me to do?"Maia's lips curved upward, and her smile looked more sinister than ever. …The next day, Catelyn had not hesitated and went straight to the airport as promised. After all, nothing could be worse.So what if she became Missus Mason? She would only return to the social hierarchy from her 'bankrupt socialite' status. She should just see it as an act that she needed to put together with Cedrick.Catelyn leaned against the window and zoned out in the cab. She was too focused on her thoughts and did not notice that sinister flashed on the driver's face. When Catelyn realized the driver had gone the wrong way, the car was already in a quiet alley. There were only a few cars scattered in the alley. Catelyn was a little scared. The economy and social situation were not optimistic recently. She heard stories of cab drivers deliberately bringing their passengers to secluded areas and
At the airport, Cedrick was sitting in the VIP lounge, expressionless. He had arrived at the airport at seven thirty in the morning. He cared more about his image and changed into a pair of casual blue suits. He wore a matching pair of pants, minimalist but fashionable. He looked tall and handsome. It was slightly past eight. Charles noticed Cedrick was frequently checking his watch. He was secretly praying in his heart for Miss Clark not to be late or absent. However, as time ticked by, more and more noises were heard from outside the VIP lounge. Catelyn was still nowhere to be seen.Charles secretly observed Cedrick's expression, and his forehead was starting to sweat. "Perhaps, Miss Clark ran into bad traffic. We shall wait for a little while more. She will certainly turn up."Cedrick pursed his lips and did not say anything.Charles was sweating even more profusely. He said carefully, "Miss Clark cares so much about the two young masters. She would turn up for them."
"Master Cedrick, good news! Miss Clark has been kidnapped!" Charles shouted excitedly.Cedrick narrowed his eyes coldly. "What did you say?""The reason Miss Clark isn't here at the airport is that she's been kidnapped, not because she wants to refuse you!" Charles handed the video and screenshots of the surveillance footage.Cedrick stared at the screen on the phone intently and saw Catelyn getting into a taxi, but the driver started to drive further away from her destination and eventually turned to direct an evil smile at her.'A taxi?' He thought to himself, 'Was she on her way here to the airport?'For a moment, he felt as though he had ascended from hell to heaven. Of course, he quickly got over his relief and excitement and became concerned with Catelyn's safety. He could not allow her to get hurt again.Cedrick looked away from the phone and commanded coldly, "Find out where this taxi has headed to!"20 minutes later, his subordinate came back and reported that they had
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. "She's
