Chapter 984

Author: Velvet Antler
As it turned out, Edwin did not know why Cedrick wanted to kill the fetus.

Instead, Joanne noted that Edwin had been rather preoccupied.

She liked to hug something or would place her legs on something when she slept at night to feel at ease.

She and Edwin lived in the same room in Atherton Manor, which meant they shared the same bed.

For two nights in a row, Joanne vaguely heard the sound of rustling. She noticed that Edwin would go to the balcony to make a phone call one night.

His figure seemed to be a little restless.

Joanne did not even realize that she stared at his back at the phone for more than half an hour.

When Edwin came back from the balcony after making the phone call, she immediately closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Edwin closed the balcony door lightly, feeling slightly cold due to the night air.

There was a heater in the room. He planned to sit for a while before lying on the bed but inadvertently noticed that Joanne's beautiful fan-like eyelashes we

    Edwin leaned over to kiss Joanne's lips again when all of a sudden, his phone screen lit up again, buzzing and vibrating.It was an unsaved number. Several incoming calls were received over the period.Alas, they were immersed in intimacy and did not notice this whatsoever....The effect of the antiemetics was a bit better than Catelyn expected. In the beginning, she infused two bottles of nutrient solution, and her mood turned better. She also regained some of her energy and was able to eat.The doctor said that the severe morning sickness was related to her mood.Thus, for the sake of the child, she must be strong.Even if she could not eat, she had to force herself to. While she could only have soup and soft food initially, she could drink milk and eat a few hard foods after a few days.Joanne, too, felt relieved as Catelyn's condition got better."Cat, you should eat more." Joanne kept buying food for Catelyn and handed another sandwich to her.That would be the third sa

    Sylvie secretly sighed, then took a sandwich from the plate and put it on Catelyn's plate. "Eat more if you like it. We've nothing but money, so if you don't like the food, we can hire another chef that's good at making other cuisines. Most importantly, my granddaughter must be happy and healthy."After breakfast, Catelyn stayed at home.She thanked Cedrick in her heart for taking a long leave for her when she was told to have an abortion. In the afternoon, Cedrick came to visit Catelyn after finishing work.The guards would usually let him in, but Catelyn felt that was inappropriate. It was impossible to hide her belly from him whenever they met.She did not want to suffer emotionally anymore.So when the doorman called, Catelyn directly declined Cedrick's request for entry.That was the first time he was rejected to enter the manor, and the outcome repeated itself for the second and the third time…It was not hard to figure out that Catelyn was simply avoiding him.Even if sh

    Joanne suddenly became angry as her face turned red.She tightly squeezed the LV bag in her hand, but then she relaxed the grasp, calming herself down.She just started working for Eclipse Entertainment and just got rid of those paparazzi and scandals in the past, so she could not afford to cause any trouble again that would ruin her image.She would rather bare the mocks and seek revenge in the future.Joanne's silence was deemed by the woman as a sign of surrendering. She immediately covered her mouth and snickered, and then added, "Pff, tough talker. So you have nothing to say now? Oh, be careful. Your fake LV bag is of poor quality. If the skin is torn, how can you keep playing your 'rich lady' game?"Joanne's previous company was very stingy as the percentage of shares it gave her was very low, so she never had any savings.Also, she was not a luxury aficionado, so she did not mind what kind of purse she used, and she always used purses of non famous or sponsored brands.So

    Eason had never witnessed actresses fighting with each other. That was his first time.Eason drove the car carefully but felt a chill, so he subconsciously turned up the air conditioner in the car by several degrees.Joanne stared nervously at Cedrick, who looked fierce. "Hey, Master Cedrick, what can I do for you?" Joanne broke the silence in the car.Cedrick then asked in a voice that was full of oppression, "What did you say to Catelyn in the manor that day? Why did she start avoiding me lately?"Joanne almost spilled the beans, but fortunately, the last strand of her rationality stopped her. "That's a misunderstanding. Cat is not in good health lately, and the doctor reminded her to rest. See, she isn't avoiding you. Hey, don't overthink. Your wedding is around the corner, and you should get some rest as well.""I'm asking you what you say to her," Cedrick repeated in a cold tone.Joanne's heart tightened. Cedrick sounded too fierce. She turned her eyes away and sighed silent

    Edwin went to the TV station where Joanne filmed but encountered a little trouble on the way and was a little late when he arrived.He searched around but did not see Joanne. 'Where did she go? Didn't I already send her a text that I'll pick her up tonight?'"Hey, what do you think is the relationship between Joanne and that man?""Driving a limited-edition Maybach to pick her up must have something to do with it! And I've heard that the man was married and even had children. What a shameless coquette!""No wonder there are suddenly so many sponsors after her lately...""Yeah! If she hadn't been someone else's mistress, how would she have been doing so well recently? Looking at how cute and pure her baby's face is, she must be a sl*t!"Several actresses satirized Joanne sourly without even noticing that a man was approaching.When their discussion was in full swing, a cold voice suddenly sounded, "Who did you say Joanne left with?"Several actresses were taken aback when they h

    'Cedrick wanted to hurt the child in Cat's stomach and even threatened me! In his dream, I'll tell him the truth! Ha! Glad I pissed him madly! No matter what he wanted to do, he would fail!' Joanne was extremely depressed, and the night in winter came very early.She took out her phone to check the time, only to find that there were countless missed calls and text messages.She muted her mobile phone before shooting at the TV station, so she could not reply to those missed calls and messages in time.Unlocking her phone, there were more than a dozen missed calls, all from Edwin, including voice messages from him.[Joanne, did you forget something you promised me?][The staff at the TV station said that you got into the car with a married man. Who is that man?!][Send me a location now, and I'll come to pick you up.][I'll prepare a Christmas gift for grandma in the evening.][Respond to my message immediately!][Joanne, let me warn you one last time…]...Joanne looked at th

    Joanne rubbed her eyes, trying to dispel the fact that Edwin was here. Instead of disappearing, Edwin got closer to her.Joanne could not help but pinch her thigh. The pain was so great it made her gasp. Before she could regain her senses, she saw Edwin's angry face."Joanne! Seriously? Can't you see the no-pedestrian sign?! What if you get hit by a car?! I don't care if you die, but am I supposed to support you for the rest of your life if you're paralyzed?" scolded Edwin.Edwin's face was furious. He was not only angry with her, but he was also mad about himself as well!He obviously wanted a child, and there were many ways to get what he wanted. Joanne was such a stupid girl, but he just could not let her go.Even the thought of having a child with her excited Edwin…Joanne was frightened by the sharpness in his eyes. She ducked back in fear.

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?

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.
