Chapter 978
Catelyn's actions were faster than her thoughts as she pressed the answer button without thinking any further.
'Cat? You're finally willing to answer my call!" Ezekiel was overwhelmed with surprise as he continued, "I was
wrong. I shouldn't have kept it from you..."
Catelyn pursed her lips, and after a long time, she said flatly, "I have an ectopic pregnancy, so you don't have to
bother trying to abort my baby in the future."
"Ectopic pregnancy?" Ezekiel's voice suddenly rose, sounding entirely baffled.
"Yes." Catelyn covered her face in pain and cried, "I’m in the operating room now, and I'm going to have surgery
soon. Are you satisfied now?"
Ezekiel remained silent for a while. "You're my daughter, so why would I feel better seeing you suffering? Are you
sure that your pregnancy is ectopic, however? The report I got at that time showed that the gestational sac
appears to be in the uterine cavity."
"What did you just say?!" Catelyn clenched the phone tightly with her mind blown.

because the pregnancy time was too short at that time, so it couldn't be detected. Since you are going
to have an operation, then I won't bother you. I'll visit you later. Please don't hide from me anymore,
okay?"
Ezekiel hung up the phone as if fleeing, leaving Catelyn puzzled.
Catelyn froze in place while clutching the phone.
She felt that she was shrouded and had nowhere to escape. In addition to suspicion, there was endless
anger in her heart.
'What exactly is going on? Is my pregnancy ectopic?!’
'Missus Mason?" The doctor, noting that she was still holding the mobile phone but stopped speaking,
looking dazed, called out to her cautiously, reminding her of her situation.
Catelyn came back to her senses, and her gaze was icy cold. Grabbing the female doctor and staring
at her sharply, she warned, “Look into my eyes and tell me: Is my pregnancy an ectopic pregnancy or
an intrauterine pregnancy?"
A trace of panic flashed across the female doctor's expression, and she looked into Catelyn's eyes with
a guilty conscience. "Haven't we discussed this issue before you walked into this room?"
'Do I need to emphasize my identity to you? I'm not just Missus Catelyn of the Mason family; I'm also
the granddaughter of the Atherton family!" Catelyn declared coldly, domineeringly. 'I just want an
answer. Is this pregnancy intrauterine or ectopic?!"
The female doctor trembled, regretting and thinking that it must be what was said to Catelyn on the
phone call.
If she had known earlier, she would neither have let her answer the phone nor asked Cedrick to leave
the operating room. At least with Cedrick around, he might have persuaded Catelyn to turn off her
phone.
'I didn’t lie to you, it's an ecto-"
"Think clearly about what you're going to answer me next," snarled Catelyn. 'If you even lie with a word,
you'll be the murderer of my child and will be my enemy!"

The doctor felt anxious as beads of sweat riddled her forehead.
"As long as my child is safe, everything can be redeemed. Even if someone wants to take revenge on you, I can
promise that the Atherton family will protect you."
Threats and promises made the doctor fall into hesitation.
Seeing this, Catelyn knew that she was short of a strong dose of medicine, so she simply threw the phone on the
table next to her, lay back on the operating table, and slowly closed her eyes. "Since you are sure that I have an
ectopic pregnancy, then you can start injecting the anesthetic into me. Do it! You'll do well to remember, though,
that if I find out that these are all lies and that someone tricked me into aborting the child, I'll take her and her
family to be buried with my child."
The entire operating room fell silent in an instant, and no one dared to take a breath.
After the dead silence, the female doctor's psychological defense collapsed, and she frantically waved her hands.
'This wasn't me, Madam. It's all at the request of Master Cedrick. Your pregnancy is indeed intrauterine, but Master
Cedrick asked us to lie to you that it's an ectopic pregnancy. He was the one who asked US to get rid of the baby
as soon as possible!
'We're just doctors who do our job after all. You know we don't dare to disobey the orders of Master Cedrick, so
please spare our lives!"
