Chapter 119 Cedrick did not argue.
Still concerned, Catelyn reminded, “Remember: don’t come out until I tell you to. You’re the most
important Mason, so your promise should weigh a thousand pounds.”
Clack!
The doorknob turned at this very second.
Catelyn was so shocked that her soul almost left her body. How did Queenie have the key to her house?!
Catelyn quickly came out of her room and saw Queenie striding across the hallway, approaching her. A
locksmith followed her, and they had pried her lock open! Offended at this, Catelyn guffawed. “I can sue
you for breaking into my space, Queenie!” Queenie was just about to shout something when she
suddenly spotted the two plates on the dining table that were yet to be cleaned up. One plate was big,
and the other was smaller. They looked like they were just used, with crumbs still left on the plates. It
was obvious someone had just finished the food not too long ago.

you’re scandalously hiding a man!” Queenie snidely remarked, “I’m here to expose you to the world
today!”
She then took out her phone and started recording, panning the camera of her phone around the
apartment.
Queenie went everywhere from the bathroom, the kitchen, and the guest room, but found nothing. She
then directed her gaze to the master room and was about to stride across.
Catelyn’s heart almost leaped out of her throat, and she quickly rushed to block her path.” What are you
doing, Queenie?!” “Move!” Queenie tried to push Catelyn aside. Catelyn used her body to block Queenie
from marching into the room, her hands stretched to tug at the door frame, refusing to move by one inch.
“This is my home, and I have the authority to make you leave. You better leave right now, or I’m calling
911!”
“Call if you want to!” Queenie laughed hysterically, as though she had gotten hold of Catelyn’s darkest
secret. “You’re skittish, aren’t you, Catelyn? That man is hiding in your room, isn’t he?
Catelyn took a deep breath. “This is my room, and it’s where I usually work as well. I’m telling you one
last time-leave!”

Queenie went forward to tug at Catelyn, but Catelyn’s arms were much stronger than Queenie’s after all
these years of carrying her baby. Queenie could barely move her when she was already panting and
sweating profusely.
“You…”
Queenie could not do anything but stomp her feet furiously. “I’ll count to three,” demanded Catelyn.
“Leave right now, and I’ll consider not calling 911.” “Fine, I’ll go. After all, I’ll tell my brother about
everything that happened today. You wait.” It was evident how unsatisfied and bitter Queenie was as she

Catelyn took one look at the master room and felt relieved before sending Queenie to the door.
“I’ll entertain you until the end. See you.” Catelyn’s voice just faded when suddenly, Queenie pushed her
as though she suddenly went crazy. Catelyn was not prepared for this and lost her balance, falling
backward onto the sofa behind her.
Queenie then made a beeline to the master room and forcefully turned the doorknob. “Queenie!”
Catelyn’s expression changed as she immediately tried to stop her, but it was too late. The door was
opened! Queenie was still recording with her phone, and her fiery red lips curved into a smirk. “I’m going
to show the internet about you and your scandalous affair!” Catelyn’s heart almost stopped at this
second, her ears ringing. Her fists balled tightly at her sides as she followed Queenie’s gaze to the
room…only to realize it was empty. There were no signs of anyone inside. Catelyn looked around and
could not tell if she was confused or shocked. Where was Cedrick?
“What? Why isn’t anyone inside?” Queenie’s eyes widened in disbelief as she went to pull open the
doors of the wardrobe and the shoe cabinet. She even ducked and looked under the bed, but nothing
substantial was found!
Catelyn’s heart that felt suspended in the air finally returned to the ground, and she then went forward to
drag Queenie by her wrist and threw her out of the room. “Are you done?”
