Chapter 323 “It’s just a spam call. There’s no need to answer it,” said Catelyn, pretending to be nonchalant about it as she hung up the phone.
Deep down, however, she was very distressed.
The mysterious man had called. What was he going to say to her?
Her instincts were telling her to quickly find a way to get back to meet him, but since Cedrick was with her, she could not leave!
Catelyn straightened her back as she got into the car, while Cedrick glimpsed at the phone in her calm, saying nothing. The car did not get that far before Catelyn’s phone rang again. Thinking it was the mysterious person, Catelyn intended to hang up the call without even looking at the caller ID.
Before she could do it, Cedrick, who was in the driver’s seat, grabbed Catelyn’s phone. “Let’s see. Who’d actually spam calls on you?” he sneered.
Catelyn’s eyes widened in horror, looking as if she had just lost her soul. “No!” she stretched out her hand to grab it from him. “Give it back to me!”
What if Cedrick discovered the truth? She could not imagine the consequences.
She desperately tried to get her phone back.
However, being a man, Cedrick was naturally stronger than Catelyn. She accidentally fell against his chest as she tried to reach for her phone, but Cedrick remained motionless as a mountain. He slid his finger across the phone screen and answered the call.
Catelyn’s heart leaped to her throat, and her whole body instantly froze.
