Chapter 1133
Catelyn didn't take Candice's joke seriously.
Alfred was a gentleman. He never crossed the line.
Even though living in Alfred’s house was inconvenient, she had no other choice.
The next day, Alfred took Catelyn to Cloud Island. It was a private island that was open to guests every summer and at
the end of the year. Visitors must take a boat to get to the island.
Catelyn loved the island as soon as she arrived, and Alfred told her about a spa on the island.
But she was pregnant, in the second trimester of her pregnancy. Doctors didn't recommend hot springs for pregnant
women.

However, on the third day when they were leaving, a storm hit the island. The sky turned completely dark. For the safety
of the tourists, the boats leading out of the island were stopped.
In case anyone saw Catelyn, Alfred rented half of the island.
At night, the power supply was damaged on the island, and the cell phone signal went weak.
Most crucially, the food on the island was delivered daily in order to ensure the best taste for the guests, so now
there was a shortage of food...
Alfred furrowed his brows, i'll have it sent by helicopter."
"No." Catelyn interrupted him, "The weather is so bad. The boats can’t sail. How can a helicopter fly over?"
"HI have someone arrange for a military plane. That should be better."
"No. We can't risk other people's lives. I've checked we have enough food for two days. Let’s pray the storm will
stop soon."
However, the storm didn't stop, and it became more violent.
Much of the island’s infrastructure was damaged by the fierce winds...
It was said to be the biggest storm in seventy years.
Stranded travelers on the island became impatient. There were conflicts among the guests.
At night, Catelyn stood at the window and looked out. The clouds in the sky were so dark and heavy that they
seemed to be overwhelming the island at any moment.
Knock-knock-knock-
There was a knock at the door. The rhythm was quick, with a hint of dominance.
Catelyn tensed up. 'Alfred had just gone out. He shouldn't be back so soon.
'The bodyguard is here inside the hotel.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm'Who's knocking on the door?'
The bodyguard staying around Catelyn was immediately alert when he heard the knocking.
The bodyguard took out his pistol from his belt, cast a glance at Catelyn, and then walked silently to the door. He put his
hand on the door handle and asked, "Who is it?"
The knocking stopped.
A few seconds later, a husky man's voice rang out. "I'm here for Catelyn."
The bodyguard couldn't recognize the man's voice, so he was ready to ask him to leave. But Catelyn recognized the
man's voice.
It was... Cedrick!
'Why is he here? Am I dreaming? Or did I hear wrong?'
"Let him in!" Catelyn suddenly demanded before the bodyguard drove the man away.
The bodyguard wasn't sure about that. He turned to Catelyn, "Ms. Clark?"
"Let him in. I know him." Catelyn took a deep breath and stared steadily at the door.
The bodyguard then opened the door. Immediately, Cedrick’s tall figure appeared.
He was holding a large black umbrella with one hand. Raindrops had wetted his shoulders.
