"You b*tch!"Sylvie immediately frowned in displeasure and glanced at the police officer.The police officer then gagged Lola with a towel, rendering her into nothing but a blubbering, groaning mess as she was forcibly dragged to the police car....The hall fell silent once more.Receiving instruction from Sylvie, the master of ceremonies came to the stage to liven up the atmosphere at the scene.Since then, the guests in the hall never mentioned the incident that happened earlier again. Instead, they congratulated Sylvie for finally meeting her granddaughter at last and praised Catelyn for her beauty and wisdom.Catelyn was taken by Edwin to the inner hall to change her dress. The quarrel she had with Quinn just left wrinkles on her dress.Catelyn sat in front of a dressing table and stared at her reflection in the mirror.Her hair was tied into a low braided bun with only a few strands of slightly curled hair resting aside, gently brushing along her white cheeks.Her ear
"Move, or I'll make you," Cedrick threatened the bodyguard.Although the bodyguard was intimidated by this taunt, he remained loyal to his duty. "I really can't let you in, Sir."Cedrick sneered and was about to roll up his sleeve when the door to the dressing room suddenly opened."Tsk! Don't shed blood at Catelyn's reunion banquet, Ced. It's not auspicious." Edwin propped himself on the door with one arm, looking at Cedrick with a delighted half-smile as though reveling in his misfortune.Cedrick stared at him coldly and arrogantly. "I'll have a word with you later. Where's Catelyn?""Cat's reunion banquet is about to start. It's not good to make the guests wait." The subtext in his words was obvious: he did not want Cedrick and Catelyn to meet at this point.If Catelyn were not his aunt's daughter, Edwin would have allowed Cedrick to get his wife back.However, the situation was different.Catelyn suffered tremendously while she was with the Mason family. As her cousin, Edwi
'Totally crazy.' Cedrick did not know when he became this insane that he would be easily preoccupied with such childishness.Catelyn kicked him with both legs but still could not break free from Cedrick's grip.They had long not kissed and hugged each other so fiercely since the day she was forced to leave him. She had had countless dreams on numerous nights, missing his warmth and scent, until she finally felt them again at this very moment.When she returned to Atherton Manor, Draco could no longer stop them from being together.Catelyn seemed to have seen the light of hope at the end of the darkness.She did not know how long they kissed each other. When Cedrick let go of her again, she found that the entire dressing room was empty except for the two of them. It seemed like Edwin had asked the makeup artists to leave the room for them.In the quiet room, Catelyn snuggled into Cedrick's arms, her soft body pressing against him."Didn't you say you'd never appear in front of me
Soon, several burly black-suited bodyguards rushed into the room.All of them had an aggressive, fierce look."Grandma, what are you doing..." Catelyn froze for a moment and subconsciously walked in front of Cedrick to protect him, blocking Sylvie's glare at Cedrick.Sylvie gently pulled Catelyn over in distress, her tone soft as if she was coaxing a three-year-old girl. "The people from the Mason family are no good. Grandma knows what he did to you. Leave him, Cat. I'll find you a better man in a few days!"Cedrick was speechless that the divorce proceedings between Catelyn and him were not done yet, so they were technically still a married couple by law."Old Madam Atherton, do you have any misunderstanding about me?" Cedrick frowned and defended himself.Sylvie raised her eyebrows and said coldly, "Cat was forced by you to be pregnant with twins at such a young age. Don't you know that it's not good for a girl to be pregnant too early? Now that Ezekiel is in jail and I know it
Catelyn's eyes were proof of her identity."Thank you very much for attending my grandmother's family reunion banquet today. I have lived in the Clark family since I was a child, and I never thought that one day I would be able to meet my biological grandmother. Even though the tragedy has separated us for more than twenty years, God has his plan for us, and I'm happy that we finally reunited in the end. My biggest wish for now is to find my father to share the joy..."The beautiful and sonorous words echoed in the silent banquet hall.When the speech was over, the audience burst into warm applause. Sylvie's eyes flashed with crystal tears as she hugged Catelyn tightly.The cameraman zoomed in, framed, and filmed that scene.Staring at the TV, Draco fell into deep thought and was moved by it at the same time.He was happy for Sylvie that she was able to find his granddaughter in the end.Still, he felt that Catelyn's last sentence was hinting at and provoking him from a distance
Miles' arrival was much anticipated by Sylvie and Catelyn.A child with sunglasses covering half of his face, which made him look like Cedrick, soon showed up at the door.Even though Sylvie hated Cedrick, she could not be irritated by Miles's cute and chubby face.Catelyn squatted down and clapped her hands at Miles. "Mummy is here!""Mummy!" Miles rushed over and kissed her cheek twice before he raised his head arrogantly and said, "Do you notice anything different from me today?"Catelyn looked up and down at the little guy. "You…have a pair of cool sunglasses?""Godmother brought me to have a haircut!" Miles broke free from Catelyn's embrace, took off his sunglasses, raised his little head forty-five degrees, tightened his jaw, and stared at the ceiling.Only then did Catelyn realize that the little guy's hair had been trimmed a little, and he seemed more vigorous now.Sylvie stayed quiet and stared at them all the while. Her eyes could not help but turn red. She quickly tu
Harry took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it over to Miles with a solemn face. "Here's a gift for you.""Thank you, Uncle Harry. Uncle is wise and invincible." Miles was elated.The envelope was thin, seeming that there was not a lot of cash in it.Miles stuffed the envelope into his pocket, turned his head, and winked at Catelyn.Kelly teased Miles a little. "Young Master Miles, didn't you just say that Mister Atherton was more handsome?""That's because Uncle Harry paid me." Miles raised his lips to act cool.Harry laughed and asked, "You're not even four years old, but you already like money this much?""A gentleman loves money, and I'm no exception." Miles pulled his collar handsomely and coolly said, "Because you gave me money. When I grow up and make a lot of money in the future, you can come and borrow some from me if you become poor."Everyone was amused except Catelyn, who covered her face out of embarrassment.However, no one noticed that Harry's smile wa
However, what was presented in front of Sylvie a few minutes later was a tiny little guy.Ollie was introverted as compared to Miles, who was lively, but he had a pair of cute eyes that could melt one's heart when one looked into them.Ollie let go of Cedrick's hand and walked upright in front of Sylvie. He knew the rules very well. He bowed to the old lady first and shouted in a cute voice, "My pleasure to meet you, Great-grandma."Sylvie was so shocked.She had long known that Catelyn had given birth to a pair of lovely twins, but she did not expect their look to be so similar.Generally speaking, no matter how similar twins look, there will be a subtle difference.If she had not seen Miles in advance and knew that Miles was lively and active, she would have mistaken Ollie for Miles.The two were almost perfectly identical, as if they were made out of the same mold…Sylvie suppressed her inner excitement so that she would not make a blunder and asked, "Why?""Catelyn loves M
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
