Chapter 255
The dirty rainwater had wetted Cedrick's clothes. Still, he had enough body warmth that it
comforted Catelyn as she nuzzled into his arms.
Touched, frustration, regret, and a myriad of other emotions intertwined as Catelyn's eyes
reddened from being so overwhelmed.
She could burst into tears at any moment.
'Why did it have to be you who ruined my life four years ago, Cedrick Mason? And why did it
have to be you who came back into my life again four years after?'
The rain poured like there was no tomorrow as the trees by the street danced aggressively,
concealing the rest of the scenery under the cold, dark sky.
Cedrick glanced at Eason before carrying Catelyn into the car. " Deal with that man. I never want
to see that troglodyte ever again."

as a sheet of paper.
He must have had a death wish to harass the woman who had belonged to Master Cedrick.
Cedrick noticed how cold Catelyn felt when he was carrying her. Heck, she was even shivering without
relief!
He placed Catelyn down on the front passenger seat before turning
the heat up to the max. He cussed under his breath as he took a deep breath before reaching his
hands out to unbutton Catelyn's shirt.
Catelyn uttered using the last of her energy and pinned his hand down, her voice soft and gentle like a
cat's purr. "W...What are you doing?"
"Your clothes are all soaked, and I have to take them off for you," explained Cedrick with a straight
face.
Catelyn just could not keep her calm while Cedrick was removing her clothes, but she knew wet clothes
would worsen her condition, so she pursed her pale lips and let go of his hands, turning to look away.
Cedrick's eyes were fixated on her body for a moment before quickly retrieving a blanket from the car
boot.
Catelyn dug into the blanket in an instant and wrapped herself up like a burrito; the only visible part of
her body was the top of her head.
"Thankyou," uttered Catelyn weakly.
Cedrick managed to catch this as he responded, "Don't fall asleep. I'm sending you to the hospital."
Catelyn poked her head out exhaustedly and protested like a cat that had been abandoned upon
hearing he was taking her to the hospital. "Don't send me to the hospital! I just want to go home and
take a hot shower."
"Your face is pale like a sheet of paper. You have to go to the hospital," insisted Cedrick with a deep
frown on his face.
"I don't want to," Catelyn whined softly. Strands of her long, black hair glued onto her cheeks. Her clear,
inky eyes brimmed with tears as she begged, and this tugged at Cedrick's heartstrings.

His brows knitted tightly together. The more delicate Catelyn appeared to be, the stronger his
urge of owning and devouring her was.
When did his ability of self-control become so bad?
The car arrived in front of Ocean Path Residence, and by then, Catelyn had slowly regained
some of her energy. She even remembered that Miles was probably at home at this point.
If Cedrick went inside and saw him...
Catelyn was too afraid of imagining the consequences. Thus, she had no other choice than to
beg Cedrick to send her to a hotel.
Cedrick frowned in frustration.
He had no idea what she was thinking at all, but she kept on insisting, and Cedrick eventually
gave in.
Alas, things did not go as Catelyn planned as Stella had just walked out of a restaurant nearby,
holding an umbrella.
"Cat?"
