Cedrick eyed Ollie dangerously. "What did you say?"

"I said that I don't like Aunty Maia. I like Aunty Catelyn! I know you won't ever take that into consideration; I'm just saying my piece. You can pretend that you never heard this.

"What happened tonight was my fault, so please don't blame Aunty Catelyn anymore…and please don't fire her. I won't mess around next time."

Ollie bowed to Cedrick before he dejectedly left the room.

Cedrick looked at the boy's tiny silhouette walking away in dismal silence. His chest was tight, his facial muscles stiff, and his eyes were dim. Nobody could read what was on his mind.

Ollie left the study and wanted to apologize to Catelyn, but he found himself only able to stand before the door, not knowing what to say,

Could he confess that he lied to her and caused this misunderstanding?

Would she be angry?

Catelyn woke up early in the morning. The thunderstorm had stopped, and it felt extra refreshing after the rain.

    "Yes, I saw it, too! There were even photos of them.""Men are all the same; they like to cheat.""I heard that Cedrick Mason is very handsome, almost idol-like. If only he had eyes for me, I'd probably have no regrets in this life!"Catelyn, already unwell at that moment, ignored the gossip.However, Anne saw Catelyn arriving and teased, "Catelyn, you're here. You were at the Masons' mansion yesterday, no? Did you see the new girl there?"'New…girl'?Catelyn looked at the newspaper Anne showed her, and she felt her entire body freeze.The photo was taken when Catelyn went back to her room. She had tripped and fallen into Cedrick's arms. The angle and weather conditions made the photo rather blurry, so their faces could not be seen clearly.The paparazzi made a plausibly convincing story about the 'affair'."Why are you silent? Come to think of it, the girl looks almost your size!" Anne laughed.Catelyn immediately shook her head and commented, "You're just exaggerating thing

    After Catelyn was taken away by the police, Anne spotted her phone on the cafe table. Wanting to keep it safe, she tossed the phone into her bag and brought it back to the company.Meanwhile, on the top floor of Mason Group's building…"The reporters are so good at coming up with clickbait headlines now, huh? 'Affair with the new lover'!" remarked Edwin while laying on the sofa lazily, one of his legs resting on the tea table and a glass of wine in one hand. He did not even bother hiding the disdain in his voice when he spoke.Cedrick threw him a cold look. "I asked to purchase the media company. Have you done it?""Of course! Who do you think I am?" Edwin grinned. "However, as soon as I bought the paper company, your fiance had sent someone over to investigate Catelyn's identity. She's fast, alright."Cedrick did not expect to have paparazzi stalking him. Perhaps it was deliberate stalking, or perhaps it was a coincidence. Whatever it was, he did not like having his photo exposed

    Edwin quickly grabbed his belt the moment he felt his pants nearly slipping past his waist due to Ollie tugging at him.He could joke around with Cedrick, but he could never lie to a kid."I'm not sure what happened too, Little Ollie. Your father isn't even bothered by it, so why would you care?"Ollie removed his hands from the adult's pants instantly when he knew that Edwin did not have much detail about it. He turned and sprinted into Cedrick's room, dialing Catelyn's number."Hello?" came a woman's voice after the call was answered, but it was apparent she was not Catelyn.Ollie's lashes fluttered at this, and his facial muscles tensed. Balling his fists tightly, he greeted, "Hello. May I please speak to Miss Catelyn Clark?""I'm sorry, but Catelyn left her phone in the office. She's not available to answer your call now," Anne patiently explained, her voice sounding somewhat concerned.Noticing by the voice that it was a little boy calling her, and most likely an adorable o

    The officer leaned against his chair, opened his notebook, and looked at Catelyn. He did not look too genial for a peaceful 'questioning'.Catelyn felt extremely uneasy being interrogated like this."He was my fiance four years ago. We're not related in any way.""According to the victim's family, the night when Jamie Mason was assaulted, you were at Barricade Club, too. You couldn't afford to be a patron of the place based on your current level of income, so why were you there? Were you trying to get back with Jamie Mason, and he rejected you because he had a girlfriend? You lost your temper and had a group of people beat him up, correct?""No! It is not!"Catelyn realized that he was trying to lead her, triggering her in the process."Jamie was the one who set me up and tricked me into going to that place that night. He got me drunk and even attempted to assault me. Thankfully, a friend of mine came to my rescue, or Jamie Mason would've been the one sitting here right now!"Th

    Catelyn felt dizzy at this moment, and her body was warm. She could not even lift her hand.Everything felt surreal; she felt herself drifting into hallucination.She was even seeing Lola right in front of her.Splash!Lola emptied the glass of water onto Catelyn. Pleased with herself, she looked at Catelyn and sneered, "Look at your pathetic sleepy face. Let me splash you awake. How's it sound?"Catelyn's eyes widened. "It's you?"With a click of the switch, Lola turned the light off.Catelyn's irises abruptly constricted at this, her eyes too used to the bright light and could not adapt to the sudden change. She had to close her eyes for a while before getting used to the dim ambiance of the room.At this point, she was on the verge of a meltdown, having been splashed with a glass of cold water to solidify losing her sanity.Her eyes had reddened, and her voice was hoarse."You and your sisters framed me—I should've known. Where is Louella? Did she chicken out?"Lola wore

    "Where is your superior?" Miles had to look up to meet the man's gaze.On the bridge his tiny yet pointy nose sat a pair of impressive-looking sunglasses, contrasting his fair skin very well. However, his appearance, coupled with his height, made an adorable sight, much to the officer's amusement."You're looking for our superior, huh? Who are you?"Miles raised his chin and puffed his cheeks, saying, "I'm Ollie Mason, Cedrick Mason's son. Have your superior come and see me."The man fell silent for a second.He looked at the boy before him, and his lower jaw fell unhinged. "Cedrick Mason's…son?"Was this the renowned Young Master Ollie?Well, rumors had it that the boy was barely four years old this year. He should look similar to the boy before him at this moment.Miles pursed his lips and looked crossed. "Get him to see me, now!"The man, though not believing Miles entirely, brought him to the lobby.Miles ran around as soon as he was in the lobby, searching high and low f

    Without much of a choice, Simon opened the door to the fourth room.As expected, Catelyn was inside.…Catelyn wanted to open her eyes to look at the person at the door. At this point, however, she seemed to have caught a cold and was feverish. Her body was weak.She kept seeing the same scenes replaying before her eyes. One moment was about her falling from the stone steps, and another was about a child dying in front of her.She wanted nothing more than to pass out at this moment.Miles looked past Simon and could see Catelyn being cuffed to the cold stainless steel chair.No longer were her eyes crystal clear; they were agonizingly red with veins branching toward her pupils. Not only was her hair tousled, but her lips were awfully chapped, and she was barely conscious. Her head was dangling from her neck, swaying side to side, looking like she could faint."Big Kitty!" exclaimed Miles, worried and furious altogether. His little heart almost shattered into pieces.He release

    Two handsome yet cold strode across the lobby and approached him from behind. It was Cedrick and Edwin.Eason withdrew his gun. His presence screamed bloodlust.As they got closer, Cedrick's slender figure became clearer. His face was stern as he looked down at Warren and Simon. "You were saying? Who did you want to kill?"The lobby was pin drop silent.Simon felt suffocated. He did not know Cedrick but was already stunned by his aura. He could feel his tongue stiffen and could not say a word.Cedrick smirked. He walked past the two losers and saw Miles lying next to Catelyn. He was just a child, trying to wipe the dirt off Catelyn's face using his tiny fingers.His gesture was gentle, he was scared of hurting Catelyn.He was bawling his eyes out. Cedrick frowned. Since when did he change his clothes? After all, it was his own son. Although Cedrick was a little disgusted, he bent over and lifted him up with one arm.Miles did not want to be separated from Catelyn. Suddenl

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.

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?

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.

    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

"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.

    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.
