Chapter 364
Even though Catelyn did not want to admit it, it was obvious that she had slowly fallen for how Cedrick cared for her and pampered her.
The moment she saw him walking toward her, back-facing the light source, he looked like a hero that had just descended from above, coming to rescue her from the darkness. There was a voice in her head that was telling her that –
She had fallen for him.
“What else am I doing here? For the view?”
Catelyn’s gratitude vanished within seconds.
Cedrick stared at her battered, dirt-covered feet. Her toes were curled up, and traces of dried blood were seen in between her toenails, along with specks of sand and dirt.
Catelyn felt him observing her feet and rubbed her feet together in an attempt to rub the dirty leaves and dirt off.
He put his arm behind her back and thighs and hoisted her up in an instant.
Catelyn’s lips parted slightly as she hesitated for a brief moment before looping her arms behind his neck and nuzzling into his chest as if she was showing him affection.
It was truly not her intention to drop the pendant…and she never expected that the man Cedrick despised would be the one to pick it up.
On the way back to the city, Winnie sat in the backseat with Catelyn while Cedrick drove the car.
He drove steadily, looking at the person in the backseat through the mirror from time to time.
“There’s a blanket at the back,” uttered Cedrick.
Winnie laughed to herself faintly. “How forgetful of me.”
