Chapter 448
TH!
There was a smirk in Cedrick’s tone, and it sounded as though the devil himself was whispering into her
ear.
OLEA
Catelyn tensed, but she then thought of the lawyer’s letter she received from him. Slowly, the anger in her eyes faded.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was not afraid of a lawsuit, but it would be traumatizing for her sons to endure court trials.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. By the time she opened them again, her emotions were already at bay. “There are new towels and toothbrushes. Let me go, and I’ll grab them for you.”
Cedrick followed her closely into the bathroom.
The bathroom in Catelyn’s apartment was small with bottles and items piling up on the counter next to the sink. There was no partition between the shower and the toilet, while the shower head was just across the sink.
The look in Cedrick’s eyes darkened.
Ollie had been raised in a wealthy household, and it was difficult to picture that he would enjoy himself while living in such an environment.
He turned to look at the woman standing before him.
He could have offered her so much more if only she asked.
Catelyn was looking for new toothpaste and toothbrush; those were purchased at a cheap price from the market and the toothbrush was disposable. Once she found them, she pulled out a brand-new blue colored towel and turned around to pass the items to Cedrick.
All of a sudden, a warm chest pressed up against her back.
Cedrick wrapped his arms around her tightly and inhaled the scent of her hair greedily.
It was too dark the night before, and he could not quite see her..
He held her in his arms and noticed that she had gotten thinner than he realized.
“Catelyn, I can turn a blind eye to what happened with George as long as you come back to me,” he muttered in a hoarse voice.
What he did not know, however…was that there was a large wound on Catelyn’s back, and his embrace only inflicted her excruciating pain.
She could not hear what he had said as she shoved him away by reflex. “Don’t touch me!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCedrick had only wanted to hold her, to take in her scent, but he did not expect her to fight him off. He stumbled backward awkwardly, and his expression darkened.
Thuck! The toothbrush and toothpaste dropped onto the floor, and Catelyn was pinned against the wall by Cedrick as he pressed a rough kiss onto her lips.
Rage was burning in his eyes as he was determined to force her into submission. Whatever he wanted, she had no right to refuse.
Splash!
Catelyn was shoved against the shower head, and they accidentally bumped into the switch, causing cold water to rain down on them.
The sudden change of temperature struck her back, and Catelyn was struggling to stand from the pain. Her stomach twisted at the shock, and she could not even breathe.
Cedrick was still kissing her with all his might, even though they were both soaking wet.
As the water ran down her back, she could no longer stomach the agony as she feebly sputtered, “It hurts…” Cedrick froze and scowled. “You’re hurt?”
