Chapter 555
The nurse looked at Catelyn with sympathy and regret. Her gaze sent a sharp blade through
Catelyn's heart, and her grip on the nurse's collar tightened.
"There was a man who was sent here along with you... but he had unfortunately died during the
journey to the hospital."
Catelyn's heart pounded excruciatingly.
Pushing the nurse away, she quickly ran toward the morgue as far as her legs could bring her.
she wanted to see Cedrick for the last time.
Unfortunately, the viewing period was over.
She stared blankly at the patients passing by, and in just seconds, she broke down in tears as
she slid onto the ground. She buried her head between her knees as she bawled in despair.
She cried and wept for many minutes to the point her knees turned numb.
All of a sudden, a pair of leather shoes appeared in front of her.

Catelyn looked up at him blankly, her face glossed with tears. However, Eason did not seem to
be grieving like she was.
At that moment, a small flicker of hope bloomed within her.
"Did you send me here? What about Cedrick?"
"Master Cedrick..." Eason looked at her and grimaced, unsure of how to respond.
Catelyn panicked once again and stood up, despite the pain she felt from her wounds. "Tell me! where is he?!

"Let me answer your question," rang a woman's voice.
This was an all too familiar voice, and that haughtiness was ever-present.
Maia Clark.
Catelyn turned around to find Maia with one hand on her back as she walked toward her.
She was barely three months pregnant, yet she was already spotting a maternity dress as if afraid that people
would not be able to tell that she was pregnant.
Next to her was an energetic, intimidating old man.
The old man shot a sharp gaze at Catelyn, scanning her from head to toe.
"Grandpa Mason." Eason greeted Draco politely in an instant. He stood aside, giving way to Draco while gesturing at
Catelyn with his eyes.
Catelyn ignored Eason's gesture.
Draco walked with a cane in his left hand whilst Maia held his right arm. His leather shoes were so shiny that it
reflected the light.
"So you're Catelyn Clark, the woman whom Cedrick was obsessed with?" asked Draco as he glared at Catelyn.
A few days ago, Uncle Ford and the bodyguards brought the two boys back to Sapphire city. However, aside from
Uncle Ford, everyone else had one of their legs broken, and they were all warned by Cedrick to stop interfering in
his private life.
Of course, Draco would never be able to swallow that.
The boys were no better. They kept throwing tantrums, wanting to leave the house. They either

Draco was furious.
Before he could catch a break, he received a text from Maia, telling him that Cedrick was going
to donate all of his assets because of Catelyn.
That was the straw that broke the camel's back, which made Draco hop into his private jet and
flew over the same night.
Fortunately, things did not escalate to the worst yet.
"Grandpa Mason." Catelyn bowed politely. Her body was covered in fresh wounds, and her
gesture shot pain throughout her body.
Nonetheless, she was relieved.
Judging by their gazes, she could tell that Cedrick had survived after all!
He was Grandpa Mason's only grandson, after all, and his grandfather would not have been so
calm and had the energy to interrogate her if he was dead.
"I'mnotCed, and I won't buy your bullsh*t.
"You're pretty impressive, aren't you? Hiding my great-grandson from me for four years... You
must've put in a lot of effort."
