Chapter 467
With an umbrella in one hand, Cedrick’s stern features were overshadowed as the light around them illuminated him from behind. All this made his expression somewhat gloomy.
Catelyn’s pupils dilated at the sight. She could not believe her eyes and felt as though she was hallucinating
Cedrick? Was he not in Italey?
“Why are you standing here without an umbrella? What if you catch a cold?” spoke Cedrick, his words uttered with an irritated undertone, making Catelyn certain that she was, in fact, not hallucinating.
Due to their height difference, Cedrick’s line of sight was slightly lower, overlooking Catelyn..
Catelyn’s eyes met his for a moment. “You… You came back?” she blurted.
“You know you can call me if you need anything,” said Cedrick. “Even if you want to catch a cold, think of the child in your belly!”
Cedrick glanced at her flat stomach while forcing the umbrella into her hand. He then took off his heavy coat and draped it over her thin shoulders.
Catelyn was startled for a moment.

Was he…caring about her and the child in her womb?
She stammered, “Cedrick, 1–”
“What are you waiting for? Get in the car, and I’ll take you home,” said Cedrick.
Catelyn stopped talking and followed after him.
The downpour was relentless upon them, pelting against the umbrella loudly as it rained.
Cedrick’s temples pulsed as he watched Catelyn walking painfully slow. Suddenly, he came forward and carried her from behind.
The umbrella in Catelyn’s hand almost fell as she stared at him, baffled.
Cedrick did not even give her a second look. “Hold your umbrella tightly,” he said.
Only then did Catelyn grasp the umbrella a little tighter while resting against his chest, allowing him to carry her to the opposite side of the parking lot.
Cedrick put Catelyn into the car before he went to the driver’s seat on the other side.
The rain hit him, drenching his hair wet.
Slam! The door to the car slammed shut.
Catelyn did not need to look at his face to know how displeased he was.
Originally, she did not want to be bothered with him, but she could not help but feel awkward since he appeared out of nowhere like that.

Catelyn took a clean towel from the storage compartment and handed it to Cedrick. She raised an eyebrow, motioning him to wipe his hair.
Cedrick, however, took the towel and suddenly grabbed Catelyn’s slender waist and pulled her into his arms.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBefore Catelyn came back to her senses, the dry towel was draped over her head as he gently dried the top of her hair, then her shoulders, and the water stains on her clothes.
Cednck was evidently careful in his actions.
“You can just tell me if you don’t want this child, and I can arrange a painless operation for you,” came Cedrick’s gloomy voice. “You don’t have to stand in the rain yourself like that.”
Catelyn was speechless.
Cedrick was actually thinking of this ‘child’ all the time.
Did she have to be thankful to him?
Catelyn suddenly felt that it would be good for him to misunderstand her.
Cedrick had always been all high and mighty, and by virtue of Catelyn’s status as a pregnant woman, she actually had quite a few privileges.
“I forgot to bring my umbrella, that’s all.” Catelyn pushed the towel back to him and slowly fastened her seatbelt. “As you said, I do care about my child very much.”
Cedrick looked at her abdomen with a dark expression.
After what seemed to be a long time, he threw the towel back into the storage compartment and said casually, “So, what’s happening in your company now?”
