Chapter 411

Everything was getting out of hand.

Both Cedrick and Catelyn were oblivious to what was happening downstairs.

Catelyn had not fully recovered from the previous incident where she was dragged into the dark alley

by some gangsters and knocked on her head. Thus, she felt extremely fatigued.

She bit on her tongue and forced herself to stay conscious.

She could not afford to pass out; not when Ollie and Miles were waiting for her.

She propped herself up and attempted to pick up her jacket that was on the floor, but a muscular arm

wrapped around her waist and pulled her back down to the bed.

“You’re willing to go this far for Ollie, but why can’t you cut ties with Nine?”

Cedrick was aware that when she left Mason Estate, she was sent straight to David’s private mansion.

Outsiders could barely get into the mansion, yet she stayed there for one whole

night!

Cedrick actually hesitated in his wedding with Maia. He only agreed to Aunt Janice after receiving this

news from Eason. Catelyn’s lips pursed tightly as she stared at him in defeat. “You can assume

whatever you want. You never listened to my explanation, anyway.”

“I want to hear it from you now. Speak,” demanded Cedrick, his husky voice sounding alluring vet

intimidating.

It was the first time Catelyn looked at him with such seriousness and calmness.

Ever since they broke up, she had thought of cutting contact with him completely

However, as she looked deep into his eyes and saw her reflection in his dark pupils, she started

second-guessing herself.

What a failure she was. She could not even control her feelings.

She batted her long lashes and decided to go all out.

“If I were to tell you that I never had the intention to be in cahoots with David to harm, and that a lot of

things that happened were just coincidence, will you believe me?”

The pair looked into each other’s eyes silently.

A breeze blew into the room from outside the window, causing the curtains to lift.

“Yes,” uttered Cedrick.

Catelyn’s heart which had died long ago suddenly perked up with hope. She gripped the corner of his

shirt as emotions overwhelmed her. “Really?”

His next sentence sent her straight back to hell –

“I’d be a fool to believe you!”

Just as she expected; he did not believe her.

Catelyn thought of the moments they had spent together and felt her heart ache. He probably never

once believed her, too. They were both just pretending to be with each other, that was a fact.

However, she never expected to lose herself in the process of it.

Catelyn got up and pushed him away, wanting to leave, but Cedrick refused to let her go. “If you never

thought of hurting me and joined Nine, why did you suddenly decide to be with me after rejecting me

twice? Why did you sneak out to see Nine?” Catelyn felt defeated as she chuckled bitterly.
