Chapter 1251
Did it have something to do with the mayor of Sapphire City?
Showing an incredulous expression, Catelyn quickly searched for the mayor of Sapphire City, Wayion Swale, with
her phone.
Wayion, nearly 60 years old, had held an important position in Sapphire City for almost 30 years. Always
conscientious, he delivered remarkable achievements and worked for the well-being of the people in the city, so in
their eyes, he was a rare great officer...
From this aspect, he couldn't be Mr. Denham, who was cruel and merciless.
But if Mr. Denham was Wayion, it made sense that Mr. Denham was very affluent and powerful, so powerful that he
could even try to kill Ezekiel in broad daylight.

suspicious. Thus, Cedrick immediately arranged for some men to watch the government-owned residence closely.
Anyway, the person who did something strange three days later would be the man behind the scenes.
Two days later.
As the time when Cedrick met Mr. Denham was approaching, Catelyn became more cautious.
It just happened to be Edwin's birthday.
He didn't plan to organize a big birthday party this year, but to have a meal with his family at the manor.
Catelyn took her two cute boys to a children's suit shop and customized two suits for them. After putting on the
suits with blue bow ties, they looked like little princes in fairy tales, aristocratic and graceful.
Arriving at the manor, Miles and Ollie handed the gifts to Edwin and immediately went upstairs to see Puffy.
Within just half a month, their attitude toward Puffy had changed from disliking to loving her.
Although not many people came tonight, Catelyn especially wore an evening dress to show her respect.
Fortunately, her weight-loss course worked well, and she lost some weight. A slightly loose dress could hide her
plump belly.
People gathered together happily. Even Harry also came as if nothing had happened, and he ordered servants to
prepare meals and tableware for him.
Though the manor was full of joy, Catelyn suddenly remembered that Cedrick and Mr. Denham were about to
meet. ‘It might be safer if Edwin asks some people to protect Cedrick covertly.'
Looking around, she didn't see Edwin. After a brief hesitation, she went upstairs for him.
She knocked on the bedroom door.
"Come in." Edwin’s low voice came.
Catelyn pushed open the door and took a few steps forward, finding the light in the bedroom off and the whole
room as dark as ink. The light of the street lamps flanking the trees shined on his tall figure through the floor-to-
ceiling window.

The ashtray on the coffee table was littered with cigarette butts.
In the darkness, he seemed lonelier than she had imagined.
"Edwin, I want to have a word with you." Catelyn stared at Edwin very seriously.
At the sight of her serious expression, he thought of Puffy's identity. 'Did Catelyn also know it?’
"Can't we talk about it after my birthday party? Grandma is quite happy today," Edwin advised.
Hearing it, Catelyn agreed as she felt that he was eschewing the topic." Well, since today is your birthday,
everything is up to you."
"Well..." The next moment, Edwin interrupted her suddenly, and his tone returned to his usual playfulness. "Tell me
whatever you want to say. We have to solve some things sooner or later."
Catelyn became stunned, as Edwin changed his mind so quickly.
She withdrew her gaze, cleared her throat, and was about to tell him her plan...
At this moment, there came a bang.
