Chapter 527
Cedrick, obviously, never expected Catelyn to use a knife against him.
Nonetheless, he was not afraid and instead laughed devilishly.
"No wonder I fell for you."
"Stop flirting, and let me go now. Otherwise, don't blame me for whatever happens next!" Catelyn gritted her teeth
and glared at him. Her grip on the knife tightened.
Cedrick did not seem disturbed at all. His eyes finally settled in the darkness as he could see her face better. She
looked pale but was nonetheless stunning.
"Stab me if you can." Cedrick looked at her grimly. "You said you can't accept that I hurt you, didn't you? Fine, I'll
give you a chance. You stab me, and we'll be even."
"Do you think I won't?"

Catelyn shivered.
The knife was pressed slightly deeper into his skin, but she could not bring herself to stab him. Even if it was just a
small slit, she would want to throw the knife away immediately.
She was never a malicious person.
She was, however, flustered and exasperated.
"I didn’t want to be even with you. I just want you to let me go!"
"The guards outside received orders to guard you here. Even if you threaten me, they won't let you go."
Catelyn immediately gripped the knife tighter, and even her knuckles started to turn white.
"That is, of course, unless you stab me gravely, and they'll need to send me to the hospital." Cedrick's gaze was
intense, his tone serious as he added, "Catelyn, you only have this one chance."

Just when Catelyn hesitated, Cedrick suddenly grabbed her arm, forcefully held onto the knife, and brought it
across his throat to produce a slit!
The force he exerted was so powerful that it was as though he was about to cut open his arteries.
The aghast Catelyn immediately released her grip on the knife, causing the item to fall to the floor loudly.
Cedrick's neck was cut open with a long slit, and blood was oozing right out of the cut.
The guards heard the noises from outside. "Master Cedrick, are you alright?"
Cedrick sounded indifferent as he calmly replied, "I’m fine. Don't come inside."
"Yes, Sir." The guard retreated.
"You didn't have the heart to hurt me, Catelyn. Admit it: you still like me." Cedrick took out a fresh pack of tissue
from his pocket and slowly wiped his blood away. He looked calm as ever.
Catelyn regained her senses and saw the knife on the floor. Her tensed muscles were immediately relieved.
Nevertheless, she was so infuriated that she began to heave.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe had never met someone as shameless as Cedrick was. Heck, he even used his own life to bet against the odds.
It was a shame she did not have the heart to stab him!
"I don't have a lust for blood! Don't just assume I still like you just because I can't stab you."
"But you were obviously hesitant." Cedrick's mood inevitably improved, and he even felt a little smug. "I know many
things happened recently, and it was a blow to you. I apologized to you yesterday. Whatever kind of compensation
you want, I'll fulfill your wish."
"Compensation? Your biggest compensation for me is to let me go! 11
"Then it's a shame that you lost your only chance."
Cedrick languidly tossed the tissue into the trash can and turned on the lights, brightening the room immediately as
though it was daytime.
Catelyn's stubborn face finally became visible, and so was Cedrick's nonchalance.
Seeing that expression of his, Catelyn regretted that she could not bring herself from slashing his throat when she
had the chance!
