Chapter 1143
Catelyn apologized for her willfulness and selfishness and then switched to a video call.
Through the screen, she saw Granny Atherton, who seemed to be several years older. Since Granny Atherton was
discharged from the hospital, she had not been as energetic as before. Moreover, she needed to sit in a wheelchair.
Looking at her short gray hair and lackluster eyes, Catelyn cried bitterly, covering her mouth.
Granny Atherton was very happy to see Catelyn. She waved her hand and shed tears in excitement.
Kelly and Edwin quickly persuaded Granny Atherton to calm down, as she had a cerebral hemorrhage and couldn’t
go emotional.
Catelyn quickly wiped away her tears and chatted with Granny Atherton for the whole afternoon. They didn’t stop
until the doctor reminded Granny Atherton to take drugs, and then Kelly wheeled her away. Catelyn wished that she
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthad had wings so that she could fly back to accompany Granny Atherton.
"Edwin, thank you for taking care of Grandma these days."
"She’s my grandma, too. It's my responsibility to take care of her." Edwin held the phone and smiled playfully. "It
seems you are much plumper than before. Did Alfred do something to you?"
Catelyn didn't expect Edwin to know everything. "If he had dared to do anything to me, you would have taken me
back. I naively thought that I hid so well that you didn't find me..."
It turned out that they were just pampering her and protecting her in another way.
"No place in the world is absolutely hidden and secret. As long as we are determined to find you, we can succeed
no matter where you conceal yourself," Edwin said and lay down on the sofa.
It was summer, and he wore a very thin shirt. As he lay down, the unbuttoned shirt separated, revealing his sexy
honey-colored chest. The hickey on it was particularly eye-catching.
Catelyn, who had felt relieved, became anxious. "Where’s Joanne?"
"She doesn't contact you either?" Edwin asked nonchalantly, twitching his mouth corner.
"I haven't been in touch with her for half a year!" Catelyn suddenly felt that something wrong might have happened
to Joanne, and she sat up nervously.
"Well, she probably doesn't even care about you."
Catelyn was silent for a while and then asked seriously and suspiciously, "Do you become libertine again and piss
her off?"
As Catelyn and Joanne were close confidants, it was impossible for Joanne not to contact Catelyn.
A wave of strong hatred and sarcasm came over Edwin, but he quickly returned to his usual playfulness. He
sneered, "I can't compare with her. She says one thing and acts another way."
"What happened between you? Where is she now?" asked Catelyn.
"When is your due date? Do you want me to accompany you?" Edwin ignored her question and changed the topic
directly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCatelyn knew that Edwin was unwilling to talk about Joanne, so she said, "The 7th of next month. But I plan to go
back after giving birth. Since you’re busy with work, don’t bother to accompany me. Remember to prepare a gift
for your little niece. I’ll have a lovely daughter."
"A lovely daughter?" Edwin laughed loudly, supporting his face with one hand. "Ced must be overjoyed. Finally, he
will have a daughter."
"If you like, you can have a baby girl as sweet as Joanne." Catelyn tried to elicit where Joanne was from Edwin.
Edwin, a shrewd man, saw through Catelyn. He nodded seriously. " Having a daughter is indeed a good idea. But let
me think about whether I should let Lucy or Lily give birth to my daughter. Or, how about I ask a group of women to
be the surrogate mothers of my daughters?"
"Shut up!" Catelyn hung up on him angrily. Edwin was intentionally deviating from the topic.
As Edwin refused to tell her what had happened between him and Joanne, Catelyn decided to askCedrick later.
Anyway, Cedrick was the only person who she could turn to.
The windows were wide open, and the cold wind was blowing into the room. Catelyn went upstairs to change into a
thicker coat and then went downstairs.
The bored servants were cleaning while listening to the news on TV.
