Chapter 410
It turned out that Cedrick mistreated Maia because she was just Catelyn’s replacement, and Catelyn did not bear Jamie’s child!
If she recorded everything and sent it to Cedrick, Jamie would be done for!
Louella’s usual gentle demeanor was replaced by a twisted smirk.
Beep, beep, beep!
Her phone’s low battery notification abruptly went off at that moment, effectively alerting both Maia and Jamie as they looked in her direction.
“Who’s there?”
Louella tightened her grip on the phone and started running toward the opposite direction. When the pair ran over to check, all they saw was the shadow of a figure running away, and they exchanged knowing glances. “Don’t worry, I won’t allow her to leak our secret,” Jamie promised Maia. Maia’s beautiful face twisted. Nothing felt like it was going her way! She then looked at Miles and thought… Would it not have been perfect if he was hers and Cedrick’s child?
She despised everything she used to wish for.
B
In a guest room on the third floor of the hotel. Cedrick dominated Catelyn in bed, propping himself up with both arms next to Catelyn’s face as he leaned in for a deep kiss. His eyes were not gleaming with lust. Instead, his pupils seemed to be foggy with a layer of eeriness.
Catelyn felt like they were having two completely different conversations.
She shut her eyes, pretending not to hear him.
“Cedrick Mason, I don’t like this!”
Catelyn disliked not being able to see his face while being under him. It felt like he had stripped her dignity from her.
With her putting up a fight, he then took his tie off and tied her hands before he pulled the blanket over her head, covering her face. “You have no right to deny me!”
