Chapter 1184
Cedrick knew that Catelyn was still wondering if he stole the baby.
After all, it was all too much of a coincidence.
If he had been Catelyn, he would have had the same suspicion.
He didn't say anything more but dialed Yael's number.
Yael was quite busy. His cell phone was kept by his assistant and he only answered crucial calls.
Cedrick was Draco's grandson, so the assistant gave the phone to Yael.
Catelyn finally saw Yael in the video! She hadn't seen Yael in months.
At that moment, Yael was wearing a blue surgical outfit, a surgical cap, and holding a sharp scalpel as if he was
checking whether the scalpel was sharp enough.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing Yael with the scalpel in his hand, Catelyn thought of a frightening scene.
She took the phone from Cedrick's hand and looked closely at Yael's surroundings. "Where are you? Who are you
going to operate on? Is my daughter there?"
Yael was dumbfounded at Catelyn's questions.
"I haven't seen your daughter." After a few seconds, Yael responded. He felt sympathy for Catelyn, and he was
worried about her.
He had heard from Cedrick that the baby had been stolen after she was born.
"Flip your camera," Catelyn demanded.
Yael saw Cedrick's somber face on the screen and guessed that Cedrick had told Catelyn what had happened. He
then flipped the camera and walked around the room to show Catelyn every corner of it.
"See? Cedrick and I didn't take the baby. We're not cruel people..."
Catelyn handed the phone back to Cedrick. She had mixed feelings.
"Now do you believe I didn't take the baby?" Cedrick lifted Catelyn's chin with one hand. Catelyn had gained some
weight after she got pregnant, but now, only a few days after the baby was born, she had lost weight.
"I'm not sure. My head was a mess. When the water broke, it was all of a sudden and I was caught off guard. I
couldn't think of anyone but you who could have stolen the baby."
It seemed like a dream, and Catelyn couldn’t believe that just hours after the baby was born, she was stolen.
The window was half open and the curtains were swaying in the wind.
"When the baby was born, the doctor showed her to me. She was so cute. Her little face was scrunched up. She
cried so loudly. She looked so full of vitality..."
Cedrick stared at her in silence. He regretted not being there when Catelyn gave birth to the baby.
He had missed the birth of their sons.
And now he'd missed the birth of his daughter...
But he felt a hint of anger, too!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm'Even if it was such a coincidence, how can Catelyn think I took the baby without telling her and planning to get rid
of the sick baby?'
"Catelyn, that's enough!" Cedrick abruptly took her in his arms. His breath was short, but his voice was firm. "The
baby was stolen, and you need to accept that. I can give you one last day. Starting tomorrow, you need to get some
rest. I will get our daughter back."
Catelyn buried her face in his chest and sniffed his scent. All her sadness, worry, and anger surged up. She burst
into tears.
She clenched her fists tightly and punched him in the chest...
"Why didn't you answer my calls? Why didn't you reply to my messages?
"Why didn't you come to the hotel that night? You didn't even see our daughter. I'm so afraid that I will never see
our daughter again. My mother and I were separated for over twenty years. When our daughter is back, will she
still recognize me?"
Seeing Catelyn's tears, Cedrick couldn't blame her.
He held her tightly in his arms. His cold air was gone...
After quite a while, when Catelyn finally calmed down, Cedrick kissed her forehead and said, "I am not your father,
and you are not your mother. I promise I'll get our daughter back."
