Chapter 183
Cedrick was then entrusted to Janice.
Janice had been weak and sick since she was born. She could not have children of her own due to her
medical condition, so she took care of Cedrick as if he was her own son.
The two had a strong familial relationship for many years. Although they were not actually mother and
son, they already saw each other like one. “Aunt Janice, you should know my temper. I never said things
for fun. Especially when I said I don’t want to get married anymore,” he explained in a soft voice. Janice
was still unwilling to accept the fact, even though she knew very well that Cedrick would not change his
mind on this.
“But Mai has been with you for four years…” “I’ll make it up to her. You’re not in good health. The doctor
said you’d better not go out so soon. I’ll send you back to Nandose Villa.” After saying that, Cedrick

The waiter did not dare to hesitate and hurried to carry out the orders.
Janice had no intentions of returning, but her bodily condition did not allow her to be reckless at a
moment like this.
She was about to persuade Cedrick again, but when she opened her mouth, her voice turned into a low
cough. She clenched her fist against the corner of her mouth, and her delicate face wrinkled slightly…
Maia held Janice in a hurry.
Maia’s brain felt like it was about to explode.
Cedrick disobeyed Janice.
Cedrick even openly said that if he were not allowed to call off the engagement, he would simply replace
the bride.
It was obvious that he was just humiliating her at this point! “Now that Cedrick said so, Auntie Janice, let
me go back with you.” Maia bit her lips as if she had suffered a great grievance.
Cedrick’s eyes turned cold and warned her, “Don’t bother, Miss Clark. As if this show had not gone too
far. Janice is weak, and it’s better to spare her from the rest. Besides, the engagement must be
canceled. Please refer to her as Ms. Coleman from now on.”
Auntie Janice came late. Maybe she did not see everything clearly.
However, Cedrick was not a fool.
Just now, Catelyn obviously had not exerted much strength, but Maia still fell to the ground…
Maia raised her head, tears welling up in her eyes.
Cedrick… How heartless he was!
Then, he took Catelyn out of the Majestique.

There was a long moat near Sapphire City.
In summer, the cold wind was blowing at night, and the air did not feel hot or dry. When the wind blew on
Catelyn’s face, she looked at Cedrick, who was holding her hand, and her back trembled as if she had
just woken up from a dream. “Cedrick, this joke is getting out of hand.” She stood at a quiet street corner,
surrounded by tree shadows under dim street lights.
Catelyn looked straight at Cedrick, with her beautiful eyes wide open and her eyelashes trembling.
Cedrick slightly leaned over, and his scent instantly surrounded her. He said word by word,” What if I’m
not joking?”
Looking at the handsome face in front of her, Catelyn felt more stressed and took a step back
subconsciously.
He was not kidding. He must be kidding.
He was making fun of her. Cedrick followed her steps and approached her. He stared at her with his
black eyes, not missing every expression on her face.
His handsome face slowly came down. His fingers grabbed her jaw and gently lifted it up. When he
spoke again, his voice was magnetic and hoarse, full of bewitchment, and there was also a hint of
banter. “Do you want to give me a shot?”
