Chapter 367
Javier’s parents were overseas all year round.
At this hour, he was the only one living in a villa near the Mason Estate. He sat on the carpet on the
bedroom floor with a gamepad in his hand, killing monsters on the LCD screen that hung on the wall.
He kept yelling as he played as if venting out his anger within.
This was when his phone started to ring, but with him so immersed in his game, he had no intention of
picking up.
Alas, the phone kept ringing, and even when it stopped, another round of ringing would start.
In the end, Javier threw the gamepad in annoyance and went to get his phone.
Just as he wanted to start swearing as he picked up the phone, he saw the number on his phone screen.
It was Catelyn.
Javier almost dropped his phone at the name, but he cleared his throat and stammered, “C… Catelyn?

After what seemed to be a long time, he replied, (Everything is going according to plan.)
‘You betrayed me first, Catelyn.’ He pinched the cigarette butt on the ashtray and quietly came to the
second bedroom.
Cedrick’s eyes fell on the door, and after a while, he twisted the doorknob and opened the door. The
room was quiet and dark, save for a small dim light next to the bed. Catelyn was lying on the bed,
breathing evenly as if she had fallen asleep. There was also an opened fairytale book
on the bedside table as if she had read it before falling asleep.
Cedrick pursed his thin lips tightly. He stood quietly at the side of the bed and watched her for a while
After a long time, he walked slowly to the edge of the bed and brushed his fingers across her evebrows.

Ollie came to the Mason Estate early that morning the moment he learned that Catelyn was resting here.
“Mommy, why didn’t you sleep with Daddy?”
As soon as Catelyn woke up, she saw the little boy lying beside her on the bed with an excited look
Catelyn opened her sleepy eyes and blinked a few times, only to realize that she was not dreaming
After she finished the phone call with Javier last night, her whole body was so tense. It took her a while,

staring at her.
