Chapter 258 Catelyn blew on the hot milk in the mug and took small sips from it. Her body temperature
slowly went back to normal as she sipped on the hot chocolate, and her cramps were eased as well. She
felt full after finishing the hot chocolate, too. It was a huge mug after all.
As soon as she set the ceramic mug down in the sink, she was lifted by Cedrick from behind. Catelyn did
not expect to be lifted and lost her balance. She hooked her arms behind Cedrick’s neck on instinct so as
to not fall. ‘What is he doing?’ Catelyn thought to herself as she batted her long lashes at him. Cedrick
ignored her questioning gaze and carried her to the sofa in the living room. He lifted her long dress by
the hem and grabbed her ankle to place it on top of his knee. There was a fresh wound on her knee, and
it was bloody. Catelyn did not expect Cedrick to look at her wound. It was an ugly one, and she did not

wound and pressed on it.
Catelyn gasped from the pain.
“Does it hurt?” asked Cedrick
“What do you think?” blurted Catelyn, biting her lip. “Didn’t know you could still feel pain. Weren’t you
acting all tough earlier?” Cedrick glared coldly at her. If it was not for her stubbornness, he would never
let her go on her own. Getting on a bus by herself and being harassed by some man… That was
probably her first time as well.
“Do you have gauze and rubbing alcohol?”
Catelyn pointed at the drawer below the television. She had to admit; the wound did hurt a lot.
“There’s a first aid kit in there.”
“Sit still, and don’t move,” demanded Cedrick and took the first aid kit out in an instant, retrieving the
gauze, rubbing alcohol, and a pair of scissors. When the rubbing alcohol touched her wound, Catelyn
grunted in pain, and her eyes brimmed with tears. “G-Gently. It hurts.” “Stop moaning so erotically,”
replied Cedrick impishly as he looked at her. He did not slow down, though. The wound had to be treated
quickly. Catelyn glared at him. She wanted to talk back to him but decided not to when she saw how
serious he looked, cleaning her wound.
After cleaning the wound, Cedrick wrapped her knee with gauze and dressing. Catelyn was in so much
pain that she had lost the frustration from earlier. She had just taken a shower, and the fragrance from
the shower gel lingered on her skin. Catelyn glared at him and pushed his hand off of her, retrieving her

The pair sat closely and were face-to-face with each other. Her slender leg stomped, revealing her skin
under the dress. Cedrick stood up and pinned her down by her shoulder onto the soft cushion of the sofa
and growled under his breath, “I dare you to move around one more time.” Catelyn was taken aback by
his aggression and sat still. “Can you let me go now?”
Cedrick did not move an inch, instead inhaling her scent as he said, “Just let me hold you. I can’t hold it
in anymore.”
Catelyn whined softly in his tight embrace and punched his chest lightly. “You’re so heavy, you should
lose some weight. I can’t breathe underneath you.” That sentence completely ruined the mood for
Cedrick. She dared to say he should lose some weight when he had such a good body? In retaliation,
Cedrick hugged her tighter.
