Chapter 966

Author: Velvet Antler
Joanne did not respond to Edwin, apparently already peacefully asleep.

She still had a round-looking baby face, not exactly the most popular kind of look at the moment. There was a rumor that a director once suggested Joanne go for plastic surgery to broaden her acting career. Otherwise, it would be difficult to become popular in the entertainment circle.

However, Joanne refused. Instead, she told the director that her baby face was her special trademark look. If she had removed that, she would have lost her identity.

Edwin was thinking wildly beside Joanne, and she suddenly snuggled into him like a restless animal…

With such a beautiful woman embracing him like this, Edwin did not know how to fall asleep.

The next day, he woke up early, at five in the morning.

Joanne was asleep soundly in his arms, with her face on his chest. He could hear her breathing sound, which sounded like a snore. Edwin was not turned off by it, and he felt that it was rather cute.

Suddenly, his cell pho

    Knowing that she was pregnant, Catelyn quickly realized that she had spent less time with her two boys. She quickly changed her clothes and went out to the garden with her children.They built an oversized snowman using carrots, buttons, and branches as the body parts. The snowman ended up being taller than all of them.Catelyn could not be exposed to the cold too much, so she just helped the boys with the tools' preparation. The rest of the snowman building was done by the two boys.As they were done, Catelyn wrapped her scarf around the snowman's neck, and Ollie placed a bucket on the snowman's head."What a cool snowman! I'll get the camera and take a picture!" squealed Miles as he jumped on the spot excitedly. He then ran into the living room to get his camera."Slow down! You might fall!" Catelyn shouted behind him.Ollie was busy building a snowy Spyderman, which was difficult for Catelyn. She had built many snowmen, but Spyderman? Now that's a challenge.She searched for

    "Dad, I want to ask you a question," said Catelyn."What is it?""Back then, when you took my examination report for me from the hospital, did the doctor really say that I only had a stomach problem?" Catelyn asked as she stared at her father, not wanting to miss any of his facial expressions. She caught a hint of entanglement in his eyes, and her heart sank a little.Her father already knew she was pregnant long ago!That was the reason why Ezekiel had been reminding her about the many things that she could not eat.But why? Catelyn could not figure out why he would want to hide this from her."Did you already know?" Ezekiel said nervously.Catelyn asked knowingly, "About what?"Ezekiel fell silent and closed his eyes gently. "Are you here to test me?"Catelyn still cared about Ezekiel very much. After all, he was her father. Seeing his tangled demeanor, Catelyn's heart softened."No, I'm not here to test you. I just wondered if there was a misunderstanding. Did the doctor

    Ezekiel's words had been haunting Catelyn as she returned to the Atherton residence."It's just a small embryo now, not my grandchild!"Just because the baby was still an embryo, could her father arbitrarily deprive him of his right to live?Catelyn did not have the appetite for her meals all night.Cedrick delivered some supplements to Catelyn as he got off work and was told by the servants that she had not eaten anything at night.He went to the second floor and lightly pushed open the door of the master bedroom. He saw a figure on the bed suddenly shrink into the quilt as if avoiding something. Cedrick's sharp dark eyes narrowed, quickly realizing that something was wrong.Did Catelyn not go and find her father this afternoon?Why was she so depressed? Did she find out that Ezekiel had deliberately changed her medical report?Just as Cedrick walked to the edge of the bed, Catelyn suddenly sat up as if nothing had happened. She pointed to the garden outside the window with a

    "I already knew everything you told me. But still, I can't accept it because he's my father…" muttered Catelyn."So what if he's your father? Sometimes, even family could be deceiving, just like Eugene and Old Madam Atherton. The old lady had only left one-fifth of her assets for Eugene.What happened?She almost lost her life!"Time will tell. But for now, I will not allow Ezekiel to hurt our children. I will find out his motives and protect you at all costs," said Cedrick affectionately.Catelyn felt more assured as she listened to Cedrick's words. She raised her head and kissed his chin. Yes, no matter what her father tried to do, Cedrick would be here to protect her and the baby....Even if Tracy was reluctant, her marriage with Trevor was already on the way.What a coincidence, it was actually held on the same day as Catelyn's wedding!Old Madam Atherton had the intention to promote Tracy as she discussed further with the elder of the Jones Family. In the end, the tw

    Trevor's voice, the moment it rang next to Tracy's ears, sent goosebumps down her skin."This marriage was decided by the elders against my will, and you know that!""Whether you like it or not, you're my bride-to-be, so get with it!"Several photographers and staff members in the photo studio were waiting to take wedding photos for them. Tracy was so frightened that her face turned pale. "You don't love me, yet you insist on having me put on a show with you. Don't you think it's hypocritical for such an affectionate drama?"Rip!Trevor tore at the veils at the hem of her wedding dress the moment she spoke. He then pushed her face against the wall, and she began to struggle in panic."Agh! Trevor, what are you doing? Let me go!""Get out!" Trevor yelled at the staff in the room, his gaze burning.It was the first time the photographers saw the groom-to-be glowering and pressing the bride-to-be against the wall. However, with Trevor's status, they did not dare to offend them, so

    When Catelyn finished helping Miles and Ollie in finishing their homework in the evening, she received a call from Grandpa Albert."Madam, do you have a moment to spare?" pleaded the butler on the other end of the line. "Can you return to Mason Estate now? Master Cedrick has been drinking tonight, and he's been calling your name in the living room…"Cue the sounds of something seemingly smashed to the floor and falling apart in the background.Catelyn stood up from the couch in shock. "Is he throwing something?"Since they got together, Cedrick had quitted smoking and drinking. Although he occasionally smoked or drank, he never got himself drunk.Even if he was drunk, he would not have gone that crazy.Catelyn sensed that something had gone wrong."I don't know! Madam, come back quickly! Apart from you, Master Cedrick doesn't listen to anyone now, and we can't talk him out of it!"Catelyn hurriedly agreed, hung up the phone, changed into a heavy down jacket, and was about to go

    Knowing he could not hide the truth from Catelyn at this point, Grandpa Albert sheepishly admitted, "Master Cedrick didn't do it on purpose.""Even if it wasn't on purpose, he shouldn't hit you!"Grandpa Albert took care of Cedrick for so many years. To Catelyn, Cedrick had no business whatsoever to hit an old man like this.'What the hell is he doing?! That's not a good excuse to hit Grandpa Albert!'"Is the pick-me-up ready? When it's done, bring it over and feed it to him."Grandpa Albert looked at Catelyn's lower abdomen concernedly, and then at the unconscious Cedrick. Cedrick accidentally knocked over a vase before she came, and the broken piece cut his ankle, causing him to bleed.Master Cedrick had to be awake. Otherwise, it would be inconvenient for the doctor to treat the wound.Grandpa Albert asked a maid to get the sobering soup and stretched out his hand to help Cedrick. "Master Cedrick, didn't you keep calling for your wife just now? She's here now. May I help you

    The maids probably knew that Cedrick would break the bowl, so they prepared several bowls of sobering soup.Catelyn gritted her teeth, took another bowl, and—after testing its temperature—splashed it onto Cedrick's face. "Wake the f*ck up!"Splash! The pick-me-up dripped down Cedrick's head.The soup, along with a few mung bean skins, dribbled down Cedrick's face, and the collar of his shirt was also dirtied by the pick-me-up. He trembled all over and blinked.Needless to say, he looked downright flustered.Grandpa Albert was scared witless upon seeing this. Catelyn was too aggressive!It was the first time he saw someone dare to splash liquid onto Cedrick's face.Cedrick came to his senses entirely. He stared at Catelyn deeply, letting a mung bean skin stick to the tip of his nose, but his breathing grew a little heavy due to anger.Catelyn's pupils contracted by his stare, but she straightened her body stiffly. "I don't know what happened, but you should look at how disgustin

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

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.
