Chapter 902
Even if Cedrick had warned Catelyn to stay away from Alfred, he was still her savior. How could she be
ungrateful?
Her thick winter jacket completely concealed her slender figure. Her lightly powdered cheeks lit up,
reflecting the sunlight on her complexion.
Alfred held the coffee cup in his hand and took a deep sip. He seemed to be deep in thought.
It's unbelievable. The girl whom he thought might be his fiance actually turned out to be Cedrick's
wife...
If it were any other man, it would be fine.
However, it was Cedrick!
i'm sorry, there was traffic on the way. My apologies for making you wait," said Catelyn as she arrived

Her slender body was instantly revealed as she removed her jacket. Alfred looked away. "It's okay. I've
just arrived as well. The New Year is approaching, and I just wanted to let you know that I'll be leaving
for Fidelysia in two days."
"So soon?" Catelyn was a little surprised. Alfred had just been discharged from the hospital for a day or two. "I
wanted to invite you to dinner. If it wasn't for you back then, I'll probably be dead already," she said.
Alfred's eyes had a trace of sadness as he thought of Catelyn and Cedrick together.
"It's okay. I can still come back next time, and we can meet again," said Alfred.
"Okay, then it's a promise. And I wish you all the best in your search for your fiance," said Catelyn.
Alfred nodded lightly.
Initially, he did not have any intentions of returning to Fidelysia. However, something urgent came up at home, and
he needed to return to deal with it.
In addition to that, he wanted to see Aunt Carrey and retrieve some hair samples from her to conduct some tests.
"Before I leave, I have a present for you," said Alfred.
"A present?" Catelyn felt a little embarrassed. Her savior had a gift for her, but she came empty-handed!
"I noticed that you don't like reading the weather forecast. Here's a storm glass for you. You can keep it in the office
or at home," said Alfred as he took out a beautifully packaged box from his bag and pushed it in front of Catelyn.
Catelyn opened the lid of the box and saw a conical glass bottle in it.
The glass bottle had a cork at the mouth, and the insides were filled with a transparent solution composed of
chemical substances which contained certain crystals. The crystals would exhibit different characteristics based on
the surrounding temperature.
Catelyn had heard of storm glasses. It was often used as a decoration or a tool to predict the weather.
"It's beautiful. The blue solution in the bottle is like a deep ocean. Thank you!" said Catelyn.
"This storm glass could predict snowy days very accurately." Alfred said as he pointed to the lower half of the bottle,

weather."
Catelyn tilted her head and looked curiously in the direction of Alfred's fingers. They were slender and
long, with well-defined knuckles. In fact, they were also very good-looking, even more than ordinary
hand models.
As soon as she looked up, she instantly met Alfred's gentle eyes.
Catelyn quickly looked away. "Let me know when you are leaving. I should give you a present too in
return."
"Okay," replied Alfred, not mentioning that the storm glass was actually made by himself.
It snows very frequently during winter. He hoped that Catelyn would think of him every time she saw
this storm glass.
The next time he returns to Sapphire City, he would then know whether Catelyn is his fiance.
Unknowingly, Cedrick actually found out that Catelyn had gone to see Alfred.
He even ignored her for the entire day!
Just like that, the both of them were in the state of a cold war, not talking much to each other until
Draco invited Catelyn to come over to the Mason Estate for the genealogy over the weekends.
