FreeNovelChapter 416 What a naive reason! Catelyn, meanwhile, had no idea what had transpired between
Cedrick and David. Was there a dispute between them?
Before she got into the car, Catelyn glanced at the hotel one last time.
Cedrick had to be handling the aftermath inside, was he not?
The thought of leaving this place with Miles made her heart hurt as though it was wrung tightly.
However, since both Miles and Ollie had chosen Catelyn, she would never look back again, even if the
path ahead would be difficult.
‘Cedrick… I wish you all the best.’
Cedrick came down from upstairs and saw the crowd gathering on the road outside of the main hall.
“What’s going on?” he asked Eason. “It’s Louella—she fell from upstairs and died instantly. The
ambulance is on its way,” replied Eason.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Louella?” Cedrick’s deep, cold eyes narrowed slightly. “Was it accidental, or was there foul
play?”
“The surveillance was cut off right before the incident occurred. It looks like a murder,” declared Eason
straightforwardly. The moment this happened, he was already at the scene to investigate.
The culprit might have gotten away at the moment, but many sloppy mistakes were made in their
haste. A thorough investigation would eventually uncover the perpetrator’s identity.
This murder case had overturned the entire event. Coupled with the rumor of ‘false sons’, the wedding
was entirely ruined.
Cedrick had listed down compensation terms to the Clark family. Without batting an eye to anyone
around him, he and Eason swiftly left the scene.
The Clark family tried to send someone to decline Cedrick’s offer, but Jason did not allow this.
Nonetheless, these compensation clauses Cedrick proposed…were undeniably beneficial. As soon as
Cedrick walked out of the hotel door, his eyes fell to the surroundings. “Where’s Ollie?”
To this, Eason grew flustered. “The young master…is gone again.”
“What do you mean, gone again?
“The surveillance cameras were cut off, so we only knew that he had run into the corridor. There was
no trace at all about his whereabouts thereafter.”
Ollie usually could be tracked down since a chip was installed in his phone. With his phone confiscated
this time, however…
He had vanished without a trace.
Despite a growing headache, Eason felt surprisingly calm. He was probably about to get used to this
boy’s trick of disappearing every once in a while. “Gather your men. Find him,” ordered Cedrick.
“Understood,” said Eason.
Cedrick wind down all the windows of the car. The vehicle was accelerating at a steady speed, thus the

He found himself slowly calming down eventually, but still…
Something felt off.
Louella mentioned that she had a video about Catelyn’s secret. Since she had been killed, Cedrick
could not help but wonder what the mysterious video was about.
When he was backstage during that moment, he recalled Ollie appearing all of a sudden, throwing
himself into Catelyn’s arms. He even blurted out and called her ‘Mommy’. Cedrick’s temple pulsed the
more he thought about it. He felt as if there was something faintly sprouting within. It was the seed of
doubt, which eventually grew into a towering tree.
Suddenly, his expression changed.
“Find out the truth about Louella’s death,” he ordered.
Cedrick had a very strong premonition about this. He would no doubt unravel the truth, sooner or later.
Little did he expect, however, that another explosive news would hit him sooner than he could take a
breather.
