Chapter 711
Javier sneaked a glare at Cedrick and ignored his intimidating gaze as he parked his car and hopped into Cedrick's
Benley.
Javier sat in the backseat, his arm hung over the headrest as he asked, "Catelyn, do you remember when we were
on the phone a few days ago, the night when I mentioned going back to Sapphire City? Didn't Cedrick get home a
little too late that night?"
Cedrick tightened his hand on the steering wheel as he side-eyed Javier. That was the same day when Quinn sent
those 'suspicious' photographs to Catelyn.
"What about it?" asked Catelyn, even when she knew what he wanted to say.

'juicer' and not let those people take advantage of you!"
"..." Catelyn almost choked upon hearing his statement.
Juicer?
Cedrick then shot a cold glare at Javier, one that Javier ignored as he added, "But I trust my cousin to love you
wholeheartedly, and that you're the only cousin-in-law I'll ever acknowledge!"
Catelyn cleared her throat and joked, "Didn't you used to hate me?"
"I was just worried that you were Nine's spy." Javier grinned as he scratched the back of his head.
"And you're not worried anymore?" asked Catelyn.
Javier took a deep breath and said, "I've thought about it. You were probably just used by Nine as a fogger to
obfuscate things. Nine's actual spy was Winnie, and I sometimes wonder when Winnie got herself involved with
Nine."
Winnie and David were not on the same team, of course; Winnie was just an insignificant side character.
That was the very reason why Cedrick valued Winnie when it came to work—she was also a very capable woman.
What they did not expect was that Winnie had long been planted by Nine to stay close to Cedrick.
Cedrick was not in the mood to talk about the past since those did not make a pleasant memory.
He sneaked a quick look at Catelyn and took a sharp turn, stepping down on the brake.
Catelyn had her seatbelt on, so a sharp brake would not affect her. Javier, on the other hand, splayed out at the
back seat casually and, without any warning, sprung forward and hit his head on the ceiling. He groaned in pain,
wanting to yell at Cedrick for his driving skill, before making eye contact with him.

Cedrick's icy glare effectively silenced him.
"Get out!" Cedrick uttered coldly without giving Javier a second chance.
Javier was dumbfounded. He stomped and whined aggrievedly, " But Catelyn promised to let me have dinner!
Cedrick, you can't just break a promise! That's not being a good role model for a kid!"
"Out," Cedrickspat coldly.
Javier got upset when he realized that Cedrick was serious about it. Catelyn was taken aback by Cedrick's action
and was shocked by his sudden break.
"Alright now, Javier is just a kid. He himself had admitted that, so why don't you be the bigger person here and
forgive him?" said Catelyn softly as she patted the back of his hand gently. "Look at the amount of ingredients we
have. We can feed another stomach!"
Cedrick took a long, deep breath, and shot Javier another glare.
Javier immediately sat up straight and shot him a polite smile, refusing to get out of the car.
He had not been to their new house nor had he officially met the boys. All he heard was that they were identical,
and even Cedrick had a hard time differentiating them.
