Catelyn was lying on the hospital bed in the middle of the night. She fell into a restless sleep. She felt herself traveling back to four years ago when she was called to the hotel by Jamie.She pleaded in the pitch dark room, "Please don't…"Her struggles and attempt to resist were in vain.Pain, anger, contempt, and many different feelings drowned her. However, right at that moment, the door that was shut was banged open by someone. A tall silhouette appeared at the doorway, like a knight in shining armor. The man's features became clearer as he came closer. Finally, Catelyn could see his face clearly. He was—Cedrick Mason!Catelyn gasped and opened her eyes wide as she looked right into a pair of bottomless black eyes that were about to suck everything in like two blackholes.Cedrick was not all too happy when he heard Catelyn calling Jamie's name in her dream."You're awake.""I…" Catelyn moved slightly and felt her body limp and weak. Her head felt heavy, and there

Catelyn could not resist and muttered, "Master Cedrick, you're lucky to have a good bodyguard like Eason. You should show him some respect and be nice."Cedrick came closer and lifted her chin using the tip of his fingers. He secretly exerted a little more force than necessary. Her pale skin turned slightly pink where he pinched."Since when did I 'disrespect' him?"Catelyn could feel his breath down her neck. She found it awkward to be holding his gaze and wanted to push him away, but he was still holding her chin, so she was rather vulnerable."I just think that Eason was quite a responsible person. You should not be so rude, or you will lose his loyalty."Cedrick moved his fingers from the tip of her chin to caress the corner of her lips and said in a deep voice, "So, I should thank you for your advice?""I…" Catelyn felt she was in danger. From the corner of her eyes, she saw a few suspicious men standing by the door and suddenly pushed Cedrick away. "Who's there!"Cedrick t

He stretched his long arms and held the infusion bottle high in his hand. He said in a voice as calm as red wine, "Alright, I will accompany you." Catelyn let out a soft yelp. Did he want to accompany me to the bathroom? She could never imagine that ever happening. "N…No need. I can go alone," she said, feeling embarrassed and ashamed."Stop jumping to conclusions. There are hooks in the bathroom for the infusion bottle. Do you really think I will be standing there, watching you?" Cedrick was enjoying her awkwardness, and his thin lips rose into a slightly playful smile. Catelyn was so embarrassed that she kept silent and walked toward the bathroom. The bathroom in the VIP ward was very clean. There are even paper toilet seat covers on the seat. Indeed, there was a white rubber hook next to the toilet, almost at her eye level. Cedrick placed the infusion bottle on the hook, hanging it upside down. He said in his rare gentle tone, "Be careful not to hold your hand too high.

Cedrick put the glass down and forcefully used his hand to prop Catelyn up. He forced her jaw open…"Mmm!" Catelyn felt the pain of her neck being stretched, and her mouth was forced open. Cedrick poured the water down her throat. "You…"Catelyn widened her eyes and glared at Cedrick, but he was busy feeding her the water. Catelyn gulped on the overflowing warm water and finally saw the bottom of the glass. Her stomach was now filled to the brim. She let out a soft cough.She said sarcastically, "So whenever Maia falls sick, is this how you feed her water?"Cedrick seemed satisfied that the water had been finished and turned on the nightlight. The room was now lit with a soft romantic light. He said, "She is not annoying like you."Catelyn was speechless.Annoying?If she were annoying, half the girls in this world would be considered dramatic!Catelyn silently threw a tantrum. She did not want to bicker with Cedrick anymore.Cedrick was too lazy to say anything more too

"I…""Get out!"Jamie howled at Louella, and his eyes were bloodshot. Louella shivered and ran out, feeling wronged. Tears streamed down her cheeks…Louella's family was in the construction business. In recent years, Lola won Granny Atherton's heart, so her father was quite favored too and was doing well in the industry. Louella got together with Jamie, and her father was now connected with the extended family of the Mason. He pulled in more investments and was planning to build a new factory.However, that morning, Mr. Atherton received a call from the counterparty, saying that they were pulling out of the deal.Mr. Atherton panicked and said, "Mr. Lewis, we came to a verbal agreement before this. How could you back out at the last minute even though we had not written it down?"Mr. Lewis' tone was different from his usual friendly one, and he snickered. "Mr. Atherton, even if we had signed the agreement, I will still back out from this deal! I will not support you even if it
