Chapter 522
Cedrick did not even care that Maia fell on the sofa earlier. His ignorance toward her broke her heart.
How could Catelyn have won Cedrick’s heart? Was it because of Miles and Ollie?
Catelyn did not want to continue a meaningless confrontation with Cedrick.
As soon as she turned her head, Cedrick unexpectedly grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her into his arms with ease. His sturdy chest cling tightly to Catelyn, and his warm lips brushed against her eardrum.
“I’ve got someone to book a flight to Las Vegars the day after tomorrow, and we’ll go there and register for marriage,” said Cedrick.
“Cedrick, do you like me?” Catelyn interrupted him.
He thought for a while. If Catelyn was willing to spend the rest of her life with him, he would not reject it.
“It’s more than just liking you,” Cedrick said gently.
Hearing his answer, Catelyn gritted her teeth, feeling that she was about to lose her breath. She pursed her dry lips and asked, “In that case, are you willing to help me? I want you to investigate the person who took advantage of me that night a month ago.”
Cedrick looked at Catelyn with a heavy gaze. “Of course. I won’t let anyone hurt you.”
Smack!
Catelyn slapped Cedrick across the face and broke free from his embrace, shooting him a spiteful glare.” Unfortunately, I’ll never trust you again.”
The atmosphere instantly became tense. Cedrick’s face flushed red after Catelyn slapped him.
He turned angry in an instant and stared at her with a burning gaze. “Come again?”
“I’m not marrying you,” snarled Catelyn.
She and Cedrick stood less than a meter apart, but Catelyn felt as if she was much further from him. “The person who knocked me out and took advantage of me in the castle that night… Was it you?”
