Chapter 818
Catelyn looked at Cedrick. His question kept echoing in her ears.
Since Cedrick already knew the ins and outs of the matter, she could not hide it from him any longer.
Or was he just trying to deceive her deliberately?
"I don't know what you're talking about," said Catelyn and looked away.
Cedrick clenched his teeth. "The old man found Ezekiel first. He found him in a certain prison and then used his
safety to threaten to break up with me and even give up custody of the children.
That's what happened, am I right?"
Catelyn's face turned pale every inch with his aggressive questioning.
Cedrick knew everything.

time ago, and I gave up custody of my children because you could give them a better life. It
"You still dare lie to me?!" Cedrickroared. He stretched out his hand and pinched her chin, staring at her coldly. "The
bloody photo, the phone call between you and the old man, Uncle Ford asking you to cancel the prenuptial
agreement. Do you really think I'm an idiot, keeping all these from me in the dark? Catelyn, I'm your husband! why
won't you tell me the truth? Do you think I'll take your father's life and death lightly?"
Catelyn felt his anger.
What followed was despair and powerlessness.
"I've thought about telling you and we'll go through this together. But I'm scared! It was your grandfather who
decided my father's life and death. With his order, even if he didn't hurt my father, the family reunion I've been
looking forward to for the past four years has come to nothing, what are you going to do? Are you going to
confront him and continue to be unnecessarily involved in this? Why not just take a step back? I believe this is all
only temporary," explained Catelyn.
With that, she confessed everything from the bottom of her heart.
There was a little relief, but Catelyn was feeling more pain. All she did was pull Cedrick into this mess with her.
She did not even know if Grandpa Mason had sent someone to watch her the entire time.
Will he even know about this conversation?
Suddenly, Catelyn thought of Old Madam Atherton.
Grandpa Mason wanted to break her relationship with Cedrick because he looked down on her upbringing and
background.
Perhaps, if she was acknowledged as an Atherton, then he should not have any reason to stop her from being with
Cedrick.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThinking of this, Catelyn actually felt a little overjoyed. She said to Cedrick with tears in her laughter, "I think I found
a way to make your grandfather accept me. You don't have to do anything, don't tell him that you know the truth.
Just wait for me! Very soon, we will be reunited again, I promise."
Cedrick's eyes sank. "Is this all to give you time to plan for another escape?"
He said it in such a sinister tone that it sent a chill down Catelyn's spine. She stared back at him in astonishment.
"You think I'm trying to deceive you? I'm not! Really! I just found out today that... II
"What did you find? You found out that I couldn't protect you and your family. You found out that I was incompetent.
I'm a waste of your time. So you didn't even have the courage to tell me the truth and rather kept everything to
yourself?" sneered Cedrick.
Catelyn's questions and answers from that day were still lingering in Cedrick's ears.
He laughed at her so-called classmate's husband's incompetence, which finally came true today.
It was Cedrick who was incompetent!
It was Cedrick who did not have the trust of even his own wife!
