Before Catelyn could finish her sentence, someone behind her bumped her arm that was holding a wine glass. Everyone watched as the red wine in the glass spilled onto the oil painting.The audience was silent for two seconds.Tracy gasped, pulled the oil painting back swiftly, and hurriedly took a tissue paper to wipe the red wine stain. Unfortunately, it was too late.The red wine seeped into the canvas, and the paint got wet, lost its original artistic conception, and became a waste product.Seeing that the painting could not be repaired, Tracy bit her lip in grief, looked at Catelyn, and said, "Miss Atherton, I know my father has offended you, but this painting had cost me tens of millions. I bid for it at the Swiss auction house for Grandma! I know you hate me, but you can't just ruin my gift like that."Sammy pulled off the hem of Tracy's clothes fearfully. "Tracy, how can you talk to Miss Atherton like that?! Hurry up and apologize!""I didn't do anything wrong. I won't apol

Catelyn did not care about being the object of ridicule, but when they joked about her father, she could not hold back her temper.Her expression suddenly changed from calm to aggressive, and she said in a strong voice, "Tens of millions of dollars for a fake oil painting as a gift for Grandma? Is this a joke? I destroyed it so it won't embarrass her when you all found out it was fake! Shouldn't I be thanked?""A fake oil painting?" Tracy's heart sank when she heard that.Truth be told, she did not buy this painting at a Swiss auction house but at an underground trading house outside the auction house instead. The seller swore that it was an authentic artwork and gave her a receipt that looked indifferent from one from a regular auction house.Afterward, she rushed back to America to take care of Eugene, so she did not have time to verify that painting.'But how could Catelyn know at a glance that it was a fake? She must be bluffing.' The lady who defended Tracy sneered again and

Cedrick's sharp eyes swept across everyone present, and with just one glance, he made everyone shut their mouths up.Tracy looked at Cedrick, trembling, and was shocked. "So, Master Cedrick, to protect Miss Atherton, are you slandering me by saying I've gifted a fake painting to Grandma?""Tracy, let's go," Sammy stepped forward to support Tracy and choked up, "The painting has been ruined, and we can't question what the superior, high above Master Cedrick said. Whatever he said will be the truth no matter what. But I believe that you will never deliberately fool Granny Atherton!"If it were not for Sammy's sincere expression, Catelyn would have thought that she was acting to ridicule her.Catelyn turned her head and instructed Kelly, "Aunt Kelly, please send someone to invite Mister Abma, the president of Sapphire's Oil Painter, to come over. He has a lot of research on Morison's works, so he can give my aunt and Tracy a satisfactory answer.""Really? That's great!" Sammy immedia

Cedrick and Mister Abma met each other in the circle of collectors before. He explained in a low voice, "Mister Abma, I guess today is your lucky day then. This painting was bought by my wife's cousin as a gift for Granny Atherton. It was said to be worth tens of millions of dollars.""Thousands of millions of dollars?!" Mister Abma nodded excitedly. "Morison's famous paintings are indeed worth the price. Well, I guess, as you said, it's my lucky day!"While waiting for Mister Abma to arrive just now, Tracy was trying to find a way to wipe off the red wine stain from the oil painting.She tried every means but still could not completely get rid of it, so she had no choice but handed it over to Mister Abma, the ruined painting.Mister Abma held the painting carefully and placed put it on a clean table. He gently stroked the surface of the painting, lowered his head to smell the fragrance of it, took down his glasses, and held the magnifier to scan through the oil painting.The more

Tracy's complexion instantly turned pale."Miss Winx, it seems that I've had too high hopes for you. You are far worse than Ezekiel when it comes to educating your daughter." Sylvie sighed regretfully, her disappointment undisguised.Ezekiel also came to attend Sylvie's birthday party that day. He was now the son-in-law of Sylvie. Everyone was treating him nicely, buttering him up. Even the file of the suspected murder case four years ago that he was suspected of was disposed of by Cedrick outside the law…Although it was just a few words of regret, it made Tracy feel more uncomfortable than giving her a few slaps, and she stammered to explain, "Grandma, this is... I was careless… I didn't expect it to be a fake painting..."Ezekiel, who was called out by Granny Atherton, walked out of the crowd and suggested, "Didn't Tracy have the receipt with her? She can contact a lawyer to hold the auction house accountable and recover some of the losses."Tracy's face paled even more."Trac

Soon, it was the Atherton family's close relatives' turn to present their gifts.There were all kinds of gifts, all of which were exquisite, overwhelming, and invaluable, including antique vases, porcelain, expensive jewelry, some high-end health supplements, and more.When it was Edwin's and Joanne's turn, Edwin gave Sylvie a lovely red coral tree, which was listed as one of the seven treasures, representing wealth and auspiciousness, and is priced by the gram in the market.It was undoubtedly the most astonishing gift throughout the banquet. Everyone could not help but praise Master Edwin for his generosity.Yet Joanne curled her lips. Her hand-woven plush scarf was in her purse. She really wanted to give it to Sylvie, so she could keep herself warm with it in winter, but Edwin disliked her shabby gift.However, little did she know Edwin's intention was to prevent her from being ridiculed. She would only be looked down upon by guests if she was given something cheap.After Edwi

There were not many photos of Sylvie alone because most of them captured Sylvie with other Atherton family members together. Those photos included one in which she and Catelyn warmly stared at each other with a smile on both faces, one in which she and Edwin played chess together, and one in which she and Harry took a stroll in the garden…Hundreds of photos were arranged clearly and orderly by Catelyn and projected on the big screen.Sylvie was deeply moved, and tears filled her eyes.The narration of the video was the voice of Catelyn. "Grandma, you are the most respected elder in my heart. It is my greatest honor to be your granddaughter. I believe that no matter what you did, you did it for my good. Now it's time for me, Ceddy, and the children to spend time with you. On your first birthday after our reunion, I thought about giving you very precious gifts like my cousin, but those gifts were dead, and I always felt that something was missing. Then, one day, I finally realized wh

"Ha! Was this specially made to wish the old lady a happy birthday?""You all do look quite vivid.""No wonder Miss Catelyn has been building a snowman with the two young masters recently. I sure didn't expect the snowman to be specially made for the old lady. How sweet…""The old lady must be so happy to have such a thoughtful granddaughter.""The Masons and Athertons used to have a beef with each other in the past. Now, the Masons were invited to the old lady's birthday party! It seems the relationship between the two families has improved, and I'm sure they will be more cooperative in the future. I can already foresee a brighter future for Sapphire City now…"...When Old Madam Atherton saw the snowmen piled up in the garden, all her stern and dignified expression vanished in an instant.After all, she was over seventy years old.Immediately, she stopped eating her cake and went over to play in the snow with her two great-grandchildren.Miles pulled Old Madam Atherton, and

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

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
