Chapter 558
Cedrick was wearing a blue-and-white striped hospital gown. His eyes were closed, his
eyelashes curled.
He was connected to an IV drip that hung at his bedside.
The doctor mentioned that he would regain consciousness in the next few days, considering that
he was physically fit and active.
Draco originally wanted to bring him back to Amarica, but he was afraid that the news would be
leaked and thereby cause economic turmoil, so he changed his mind in the end and decided to
wait until Cedrick woke up.
Because of that, Catelyn had the chance to see him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe nurse was startled when Catelyn showed up on the balcony. She pointed inside, opened the
balcony door, and stayed on the balcony on her own, leaving plenty of space for them.
Catelyn looked at the nurse gratefully and quietly approached Cedrick.
Looking at Cedrick's calm but pale face, due to weakness, the intensity and madness he usually sported were all
gone.
One of Catelyn's hands clasped her mouth as a mixture of joy and sorrow caused an ache in her heart.
'Thank goodness he's alright! '
She sat on the edge of the bed with her fingertips tracing his jawline, caressing his closed eyes, eyelashes, nose,
and his lips.
When her fingertips reached the corner of his lips, she paused for a moment.
She noticed a little cracked wound on the spot, and it had already been scabbed over.
When she was in the car that day, she subconsciously bit his lip when he pushed her out of the car.
"I... I'm sorry, Cedrick. Please wake up for me." Catelyn held his large palm and rubbed it awkwardly for him.
She thought the warmer his hand got, the higher the possibility that he would wake up.
Time passed quickly. Catelyn said that she would leave after a glance, but she had already stayed for a long time
and was still reluctant to leave.
After a while, the pain in her body intensified, and she became so tired that she could not open her eyes.
Cedrick jumped out of the car a bit too late and hit his head in the process. His brain was throbbing with pain, even
in a coma.
Despite being unconscious, he could feel a soft, warm sensation gently enveloping his hand as though someone
was holding it. He could also make out words being spoken to his ear occasionally.
His knuckles moved slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe ward was illuminated by a dim, yellow-tinted light. His gaze slowly moved around and
spotted that a pair of soft hands had indeed held onto him.
His back and thighs were in a tear-like pain, which made him take a deep breath involuntarily.
He turned to Catelyn again and saw her lying at the bedside, sleeping soundly. Her hair seemed
a little tousled as it hung down on her cheeks disorderly, covering her beautiful eyelashes.
A flash of cruelty flashed in his eyes as he tried to recall the accident.
It was a fluke that they all survived the accident, and he swore he would never allow that to
happen again.
He struggled to brush away her fringe with a hand as he stared at the woman guarding him
tenderly.
T nearly paid with my life to save US both. I should've won her heart and be able to keep her at
this point, right?' he mused.
Suddenly, Cedrickfelt how Catelyn began shivering, and her breathing became slower.
"Cedrick...d—don't die..."
