Chapter 873

After the inspection, the female doctor breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Master Cedrick, your wife will be fine. She needs a few days of rest. I'll prescribe some medicine for her," she said.

The air was quiet.

If Cedrick had not insisted on taking Catelyn to the hospital, he knew she would never go get herself checked.

"Get me the ointment," said Cedrick.

The female doctor glanced at Catelyn enviously and went out.

In the infirmary, Catelyn regretted that she did not wear a mask. She lowered her eyes, feeling ashamed.

Feelings of distress, regret, and guilt were intertwined within Catelyn. Before she could say anything, there was a knock on the door.

The female doctor came in, handed the ointment to Cedrick, and left the room.

…

Cedrick stayed the night with Catelyn. The next morning, before the sun rose at dawn, he sent her back to Atherton Manor.
