Chapter 679

Author: Velvet Antler
Three-thirty in the evening?

Edwin looked at the time and realized that it was already three in the evening.

That idiotic woman! How could she not tell him before she decided to get rid of his child?!

Edwin hopped onto his red Ferrare and sped all the way to the hospital, running over multiple red lights. He eventually managed to arrive at the hospital in 20 minutes.

He had called the hospital earlier to inform them to not proceed with the abortion for a woman with the last name 'Winters'. However, since Joanne was a celebrity, she might have provided a different name to the hospital.

It was a private hospital, thus they were not too strict on your identities. As long as one had the money, everything could be done anonymously.

There were too many women with a 3:30 p.m. appointment. Most of them were there for a surgical abortion, but some were there for the pill since taking the pill at the hospital was safer than doing it at home.

Edwin had no idea which one of them was Joanne.

    Joanne was seen leaning on the stone table with her head hanging lowly. Edwin was only able to see the side of her face from that angle and could not see her expression at all.Her wispy figure made her look like an abandoned kitten; lonely and helpless.It was winter, yet she was leaning on the ice-cold stone stool and table after she had just taken the abortion pill?Did she really think she was that strong and healthy, or had she fallen asleep on it?…Joanne leaned on the table, grimacing. Her eyebrows knitted tightly together as she looked at the time, noting that it was past three-thirty in the evening.She took a deep breath, in and out, and realized that she could not go through with the procedure.If only Catelyn was with her.She was still deep in her thoughts when a figure appeared at her side, effectively blocking the sun rays shining on her.Joanne instinctively grabbed her face mask and sunglasses to put them on, but before she could do that, a man grabbed onto h

    What?"Why are we going to the county's office?" Joanne asked dumbfoundedly.Edwin looked at her and said in a sing-song tone, "What you wanted—a marriage certificate."Since she had the guts to tell Grandma that she had liked him for five years, she must have been hoping for this day for a long time."Are you crazy?!" Joanne pulled her hand out of his grip furiously. "I never said anything about marrying you!"Edwin's eyebrow lifted as he looked at her and drawled, "What did you say? I didn't get that.""You…" Joanne was crying internally, but she had no courage to yell at him anymore. All she did was look at him in bewilderment.The reason he wanted to marry her was probably just to compensate her for what she had to go through that night, right?Joanne thought about all the possibilities and felt like she was about to puke from the overwhelming thoughts. She waved at him and said, "Mister Atherton, you don't have to make up for anything. I'm content being single. We're all a

    Edwin was stunned to hear this, and his sunken heart had floated back up.He felt an odd sense of happiness."What abortion? Did you forget what I said? Bear it and give birth to the baby when the time comes!" Edwin felt thoroughly entertained by the naive girl in front of him.His baby was safe!He looked at Joanne's belly and felt relieved that he could bring her home to see Grandma.Edwin thus brought Joanne to the obstetrician for a regular check-up, seeing as she never had it checked and had no idea what the baby's condition was.Joanne looked at her hand that was held and dragged by Edwin. She wanted to pull her hand out but had no energy to do so. If she truly was pregnant, and he was willing to marry her and give her and the baby a home, that would not be too bad. Most importantly, she did not have to get an abortion.She would never admit to him that she was just afraid of getting an abortion.Before she came to the hospital, she had read numerous articles online abo

    The doctor eventually figured it out. "Pregnancy test kits usually cost more than ten dollars. The cheap bundle you bought must be inferior to be accurate or expired."Joanne was disconcerted.She carried a lot of medicines when she came out of the hospital, all of which were prescribed by the doctor to ease her stomach problems. The doctor also told her to come for an examination if her period did not come after two to three months.Edwin's face was fixed into a permanent scowl as he walked briskly, so much so that Joanne could not keep up. Panting, she shouted behind him, "I can't walk anymore! I'm not going anywhere!"Edwin stopped when she heard her shouting. He swore to himself to not come to this hospital again. He could not believe that they came all the way to the hospital just to make themselves a laughingstock to the patients!Joanne ran over, panting, as her bangs turned to one side due to her run, revealing her entire forehead. She looked up at him and deadpanned, "Sin

    Joanne stretched her neck and glanced at the contract. The first term written was about the duties of husband and wife.Joanne blushed and threw the contract back to Edwin. "We're not even close at all."If she had not been mistaken she was pregnant, they would barely know each other.Edwin supported Joanne with one arm on the side of her head, which was very oppressive in her eyes. She then habitually stepped back. Meanwhile, his other hand wound around her waist as he stepped forward and pressed her into him.With her chest pressed against her, Joanne's dense eyelashes quivered. "W—Wait…""It doesn't matter." Edwin leaned over slightly. His impish gaze seemed full of brilliance in the instant.Joanne stammered, "I—I'm not as good as those chicks of yours...""Grandma is in a good mood knowing that you're pregnant with her little great-grandson. I don't want to upset her. This is just to keep your lie true."Joanne had heard Edwin talking about his grandma several times but ne

    All the male models surrounding Windy had godlike-sculpted bodies that expressed their masculinity. They all smiled charmingly as they fed her fruits from time to time, practically pleasing her.What surprised Catelyn the most was that among the group of models, there stood a tall man in a suit. He stood upright, wore gold-rimmed glasses, and showed no inferiority at all.By taking a good look at the man, Catelyn finally noticed who the man was.It was David Mason.She had doubted Cedrick's statement before that David and Windy were sexually close, but at this moment, she finally believed it.She was sure that David was not the only lover of this flirtatious woman, too.Windy, spotting Catelyn from afar, bit into the fruit handed over by a model.She then walked to David's side and stood on her toes, wrapping her arms around his neck and seizing his lips with a raise of her head.David snorted while his face was dull. He gently pushed Windy away before turning his head to get o

    Catelyn was rejected by Windy without mercy.However, Catelyn had no intention of giving up.When she left the port, she answered the phone call from Cedrick and told him what had happened just now.Still, the wind was too strong that Cedrick could not hear Catelyn clearly, so he urged her to go home as soon as possible after finishing her work or give him the address so he could pick her up.Catelyn did not want to stay at the port any longer, so she took a cab home alone.She had been very busy lately. Hence, Cedrick complained about her leaving him aside with the children.​​Catelyn felt guilty. She wanted to find a balance between family and work, yet it was easier said than done.To make up to the three of them, she cooked a sumptuous dinner when she got home.She also played two rounds of games with the two little guys.Cedrick had been sitting on the sofa, glancing at her with dissatisfaction.Still, Catelyn pretended not to see it and continued to play games, but the

    Catelyn normally would not advocate for little kids to play games for a long time, but Miles was acting so soft in front of Cedrick that she could not help but beg Cedrick on his behalf.In the end, Cedrick was again back in the game for another round.Miles happily ran back to the seat and started controlling his character to fight with Cedrick.He was murmuring, trying to interfere with Cedrick.Cedrick coldly told him to shut up before turning a deaf ear to him. Then, he easily resolved the alliance between Ollie and Miles.The kids lost badly in the end as they glared at Cedrick and Catelyn before running into their room.Catelyn watched them leave with a laugh.Just as she was laughing, she felt Cedrick's cold eyes fall on her. She immediately started a topic, telling Cedrick everything she saw on the cruise ship."Why do they think you are gay? Didn't they know about Maia?"Maia was his fiancee, and the people of the upper class knew that.Cedrick frowned slightly. "I n

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

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.

    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

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.

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.
