Chapter 779

Author: Velvet Antler
"She's a close friend of my wife. I have to care about my wife." In the guest bedroom upstairs, Catelyn overheard them arguing about her. She knew no matter how hard she tried to hide. They would still eventually meet one day. She needed to make him give up. So, she pushed open the door and went downstairs, standing at the entrance of the stairs, and stopped the two people who were arguing. "Stop it. I'm here." Following the source of the sound, Cedrick saw Catelyn.

...

Under a plum tree whose branches were covered with pink buds in the courtyard of the Shoal Villa, there were withered leaves scattered on the ground. Cedrick grabbed her wrist and asked forcefully, "Why did you leave without saying goodbye? Take your things and come back with me!"

"Cedrick Mason, let's divorce." Catelyn tried very hard to pretend to be calm.

There was a silence of a few seconds before Cedrick's eyes suddenly became gloomy. "Take your words back immediately. I can treat that as a joke!"

    Hit-and-run, justice, and morality…That sentence provoked an outburst of anger from Cedrick instantly. His tone became aggressive, and he almost yelled at her, "You think I am the murderer before the police have concluded the case, don't you? Even if I may be the murderer, I didn't mean it. Do you want to divorce me just because of that?! Have you ever believed me?" It was ridiculous that he used to think they would be able to live happily ever after.Catelyn was so distressed that it felt like someone had stuck a needle in her heart. Her doubt about him was the result of the accumulation of countless coincidences and evidence, yet, she was still willing to believe him that it was an accident even if he was the driver.However, she could not explain to him, so making him misunderstand was the best solution of all. She choked up and nodded with tears in her eyes. "Yes! She's too old to suffer. I would rather be the one who's lying on the bed. You can blame me, hate me, or do whateve

    Especially when Cedrick was backing down for her just now…"Kitty, don't cry," comforted Joanne. She gave Catelyn a napkin and said, "Your eyes are all red. You know you can tell me anything, I will be here to listen, and I promise not to tell anyone."Catelyn took the napkin and wiped her tears. Before she could finish, her eyes were wet, and tears started flowing out again."Is there any wine?" mumbled Catelyn. She really wanted to cry, but she was really fed up with feeling this weak. She just wanted to get drunk at the moment. "Can you accompany me for a few drinks?""Yes, there's nothing but a lot of alcohol here. You can drink as much as you want!" said Joanne excitedly. She immediately ran to the wine cellar downstairs and took out a bottle of good wine that Edwin had kept.Catelyn popped open the cork and poured the wine into a transparent goblet.The scarlet liquid slid down her throat and into her stomach. She drank too quickly and ended up choking, feeling a burning se

    Joanne knew Catelyn was just saying it to make herself feel better. Catelyn was drunk at the moment, but when she woke up sober the next day, she continued to think of a plan.She did not believe it was a dead end.Surely, there must be other ways.Before Catelyn was completely drunk, she reminded Joanne not to tell Cedrick, to which she agreed. Soon after, Catelyn fell into a deep sleep.Joanne shook her head and called her servant to help Catelyn to her bed to rest.After everything was settled, Joanne took off her shoes and crawled into her bed. At this moment, the room door was opened, and in came Edwin with his eyebrows raised.He could smell the strong, pungent smell of alcohol in the room and frown in disgust. Joanne turned her head and stared at him. "You… You! Who gave you permission to come in? This is the girl's room! Get out!"Edwin ordered his servant to take care of Catelyn. He then proceeded to drag Joanne and threw her back on the bed of the master bedroom."Ouc

    Joanne covered her head in pain, kicked the bathroom door open with her feet angrily, and continued to walk in.The corners of Edwin's mouth twitched several times. He could not bear to look at Joanne directly like this.Why did he even choose such a girl like this to give him a child?Staring at the filth she vomited on the bed, Edwin called a servant to clean it up. He opened the windows for some ventilation and sprayed air fresheners around the bedroom.Joanne had her period for many days already, and it should be over now.However, Edwin was concerned about having intercourse with a drunk person. To get a healthy baby, the mother must be in tip-top condition at all times. As Edwin thought about this, he went to the shelf and took out a packet of condoms.After what felt like a long time, Joanne still had not come out. Edwin could see movements in the bathroom and called out to her, "Joanne! What's taking you so long? Come out quick!"No answer.Did she fall asleep inside?

    Cedrick returned to the Mason Group after leaving Shoal Villa.It was late at night, but the video conference with Euro had not yet officially started.He directly informed Charles that there was no need to postpone it. At the end of the video conference, both parties had confirmed the business cooperation, and all they needed to do now was to wait for the follow-up details."Master Cedrick, it's a pleasure to have the chance to do business with you," said the other party in the video.Cedrick replied expressionlessly, "I'm looking forward to it too." Then cut off the communication.He rubbed his temples with his long fingers. On the way back, he thought that something was wrong. If Catelyn really cared that he had hit Stella with his car, she should have shown up immediately in the morning, not a day later.What happened during the moment when her bodyguard lost her?The chill in Cedrick's eyes flashed away, and he called the bodyguard again. "Go and investigate the moments aft

    What happened? Why did Catelyn leave?Why did she stubbornly refuse to tell Cedrick anything?...The next day, the maid woke the two boys up gently.They had so much fun yesterday. They both were still a little tired and could not keep their eyes open. Miles yawned coquettishly. He tucked himself into the blanket and said to the maid, "Please let me sleep for a little while."The maid said sheepishly, "Breakfast is ready. Master Cedrick said that he would send you to school after your meal."Although Ollie's eyelids were also struggling to open, he knew he had to wake up.He sat up first and pushed Miles' arm. "Get up. You're going to be late for school.""Five minutes." Miles drooped his eyelids and said lazily, "The Big Demon can go first. Just ask Mummy to take us to school."The maid suddenly flashed her eyelashes in a guilty conscience.How should she tell the boys that Catelyn was not around anymore and Cedrick was the only one left?The maid hesitated, not knowing ho

    Was Mummy crying last night because she knew she was leaving?Ollie guessed it right. Mummy was sad.But…"Why?" he asked stubbornly.Without answering him, Cedrick pulled out his slender legs from Miles' little embrace and continued walking straight.Ollie wished someone could just tell him what was going on…The boys did not even bother washing up. They both wore their crumpled pajamas and searched across the whole house, but there was no sign of Catelyn. The scary thing was that the amount of toiletries in the bathroom had been significantly reduced.Later, at the dining table, the two boys seemed to be entangled with Cedrick.One stood on his left, pulling on the hem of his clothes, and the other stood on his right, respectfully."Did you lie to me on purpose, big demon?" Miles pouted. "I've already woken up! You can't say Mummy didn't want us now…""Father, stop joking around. You're scaring us!" said Ollie in a serious tone.Cedrick pulled his hand back from the Mile's

    Ollie recalled carefully and said to Miles, "Did you feel that something was wrong with Mummy the day before yesterday?"Miles' eyes sank. "You mean it started when Mummy didn't come home?"Ollie nodded, his little heart clenched into a ball. "Especially last night, Mommy took us out to play and kept saying that she wanted to fulfill our wishes and make up for us. She was clearly ready to leave early in the morning."Listening to Ollie's explanation, Miles also quickly understood what had happened.He started regretting that he only cared about playing yesterday, not paying attention to Mummy…Staring at the big pile of shopping bags in the opposite corner of the room, Miles grew enraged like a little lion, running over angrily and knocking everything down.All the gifts, including clothes, school bags, shoes, and toys, were scattered all over the place.Miles did not want these gifts anymore. He just wanted Mummy to stay by his side!When the maid heard the commotion, she hurr

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

"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.
