FreeNovelChapter 391
Catelyn swayed ever so slightly. Her features stiffened as she clenched her fists.
A few seconds later, she responded coldly, “I have nothing to do with Cedrick anymore.”
David’s smile lingered on his face as he grabbed the remote controller of the television to switch it on.
Instantly, a news report appeared on the screen. It was the press conference Cedrick and Maia had
held. The two stood next to one another, and under the spotlights, it almost seemed as though there
was no other couple as compatible as they were. Countless reporters flooded the hall, and the sounds
of camera flashing did not cease. “Mister Mason, rumor has it that you’ve been engaged to Miss Maia
Clark for four years now. You haven’t shown any intention of getting married so far, so why are you
deciding on it now?
“Both the Mason and Clark families are powerful clans in Sapphire City. The union of the two families is
a big deal, so why are you spending only three days on the wedding preparation?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Miss Clark, there have been whispers saying that there was another woman that came between you
and Mister Mason, which led to your relationship going sour. Is that true?”
Cedrick’s narrowed glare swept the room as he scanned each reporter, sending chills down the spines
of those who met his gaze.
Little did everyone else know, Maia had bribed a few of the reporters, and they continued shooting
questions.
“Who is this other woman in your relationship? The internet seems to suggest that it’s a certain female
actress.”
Before Cedrick could say anything, Maia took a step forward and wrapped her arms around his
intimately. “Sorry, but this is all we’re going to say. Of course, we welcome all to attend our wedding!”
Inside the living room, Catelyn’s face grew pale at the realization that Cedrick was marrying Maia.
Marriage… It had seemed to be such a far-fetched concept, yet it was suddenly realized before her.
Cedrick would be married and become someone else’s husband in three days. Would he take another
woman’s arm and demand that her son call someone else his mother?
As sorrow took over her, Miles was also affected by the atmosphere and shot a resentful glare at the
screen.
He was certain that ‘Big Demon’ had hurt his mother’s feelings.
They had all been to theme parks and supermarkets together. They had gotten on a Ferris wheel
together, and Miles had seen the two whispering secrets into each other’s ears in Catelyn’s apartment.
All that, and Cedrick turned his back and abandoned her so swiftly!
How dare he hurt Mommy?!’ seethed Miles as rage filled his eyes.
The next day, David decided to release Miles and Catelyn all of a sudden and sent his car to bring
them back to the city.
Winnie watched as the car drove off, confused by David’s intention on this. “Nine, Miles is the biggest
leverage we have. Are we really letting him go?” David broke the stem of a rose mindlessly and said,
“Letting him go? It’s just a big world out there, so where can he go?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWinnie was still confused.
“I had thought that Catelyn Clark was Cedrick’s weakness before, but as you can see, Cedrick is
clearly more rational than we thought him to be.”
“And what if he continues to be rational?”
“Want to bet? I bet that his wedding won’t go on successfully.” David had played the news on purpose
to study Catelyn and Miles’ reaction, and the results were interesting.
Winnie hesitated for a moment, before curling her lips into a smile. “We’re betting on that piece of land
east of the city.”
Back in Ocean Path Residence, Joanne was losing her mind. She had Catelyn’s personal information
and passport ready, but she had not been able to reach Catelyn for the past two days.
Heck, even Miles had gone missing since yesterday. She had gone to the police, and they said that
they would not look into it as they had not gone missing for over 24 hours!
Luckily, the two eventually returned. “What’s going on? I saw the news… Cedrick Mason is marrying
Maia Clark?” Joanne observed Catelyn’s expression gingerly. Catelyn squeezed a faint smile on her
face. “Yeah. It’s over between me and him.”
