Chapter 849
Catelyn looked at Cedrick's gloomy face as she held the phone in one hand. She could not help but laugh.
She shrugged helplessly and gave him an apologetic look.
"We're fine, Grandma. Sorry for making you worried," said Catelyn.
'I know that you are all grown up, and you can decide for yourself.
However, I think Cedrick is really not suitable for you. Don't get close to him anymore, or you'll make me sad," replied Old
Madam Atherton.
She did not want to mention anything about Cedrick's illness for fear that she would cling to him even tighter and not let
him go.
However, if Cedrick made Catelyn pregnant again...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey both would become even more inseparable.
If Cedrick could not live a long life, Catelyn would end up a widow!
Catelyn immediately blushed. She may be an open-minded person, but she still would not talk about her private life
with her grandmother. She mumbled, "I understand, Grandma. Well, I didn't really want to go on a blind date as
well. Could we not arrange a party like that anymore?"
Catelyn winked at Cedrick as she spoke as if to show him that she was serious about this.
Cedrick's expression darkened slightly.
Old Madam Atherton sighed and said, "Alright, as long as you're happy. However, I will still have to get someone to
protect you. You must be followed at all times for your safety."
The driver seemed to understand that the old lady was referring to him, and he showed a warm smile to Catelyn.
Cedrick did not expect Old Madam Atherton would be so protective of Catelyn from him to such an extent.
The driver was also ordered to keep an eye out for Cedrick specifically.
He would not appear if Cedrick was not around. However, once Catelyn was within 100 meters of Cedrick, the
driver would be on high alert while monitoring her.
In a fit of rage, Cedrick almost wanted to knock him unconscious, but he was stopped by Catelyn.
It did not matter if Cedrick took out the driver. Old Madam Atherton would just get a new bodyguard for Catelyn the
next day.
Later on, they both went out for dinner together. Catelyn seemed to be thinking of something deep. She rested her
cheek on the side of his arm and asked Cedrick suspiciously, "What happened to Grandma and Grandpa Mason
back then? It looks like she really hates the Mason Family, and it has been more than three generations already..."
Something was bothering Cedrick within. His face was still tense, as his jaw sank a little.
The reason why Old Madam Atherton wanted to isolate him and Catelyn was probably because of the disease which he
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏminherited in the Mason Family.
It was the most important thing for Cedrick today to find out whether he had actually injured Stella that night.
Did his disease actually spread?
"Back then, Sapphire City had the Big Five Giants, and one of them was the Smiths, which was your grandmother's
family," explained Cedrick.
’Your grandmother was infatuated with my grandfather. Due to her strong personality, the old man wanted to get rid of
her. In a fit of rage, he caused a lot of trouble for the Smith Family and accidentally involved your great grandfather's
unscrupulous activities. At the same time, they were also on the verge of bankruptcy. Your old lady went to my old man
for help, but he left her after a miscarriage," he continued.
"Later, your grandmother married into the Atherton Family and became their eldest daughter-in-law. Ever since then, the
Smiths were no longer part of the wealthy circle of Sapphire City."
At that time, there was also another woman involved in this entire affair, who seemed to be deceiving Grandpa Mason
the entire time. However, Cedrick had not much knowledge about this and did not mention it to Catelyn.
