Our Billion-Worth Twins by Velvet Antler novel Chapter 559

Chapter 559

Tears seeped through the corners of Catelyn's eyes as she whispered, but Cedrick had no idea what she was dreaming of.

"Kitty?" Cedrick quickly squeezed her hand and shook her shoulders gently to wake her up. "Wake up... II

Catelyn, although slowly waking up, was still tormented by her nightmare, she could not come to herself for a while as she stared blankly at the man who suddenly woke up in front of her, with crystal­like tears rolling down her eyes.

"Did you have a nightmare?" Cedrick reached for her cheeks to wipe the tears, feeling deeply distressed.

"Y...You're awake, Cedrick? Are you finally awake?"

Catelyn finally regained consciousness and escaped from the nightmare. The tip of her nose and eyes turned red, and her heart was beating in joy.

She stood up excitedly and gave him a thorough once­over.

Catelyn's hand slipped from Cedrick's palm as she stood up, and he immediately felt a strong emptiness at the bottom of his heart. He then spread out an arm toward her and said, "Come here. Let me hug you."

Catelyn whimpered but did not refuse as she threw herself into his arms, crying and laughing. "You finally woke up! " Her voice sounded muffled as she muttered, "Do you know how afraid I was that something will happen to you, that you'll never wake up again?"

Cedrick's right arm was injured, so he could only hold her softly. His thin lips pressed against her cheek, and he tasted the saltiness of her tears.

"I'm not dead yet. You sobbing like this makes this an ominous, unlucky occasion," he hoarsely coaxed, but he did not have the strength to make a joke.

"I won't allow you to gamble with your life! If you dare leave me again in the future..." Catelyn stared at him fiercely, but tears streamed down her face. "I'll remarry and make your two children call George ' Daddy'! I won't let you die in peace!"

Cedrick stared at her with his darkened eyes, "why are you making me angry right after I woke up?"

He suddenly clutched his chest and curled his upper body slightly, looking like he could not breathe.

Catelyn panicked, worrying that she had hurt him again, so she hurriedly leaned forward to check his chest.

Cedrick's eyes flickered. He wanted to pull her into his arms and kiss her passionately, but the wounds all over his body hurt that he could not even move his muscles flexibly.

He suddenly had regret in his eyes.

Catelyn's palm slid over Cedrick's chest for a while, but she found no traces of wounds, she could not help biting her lower lip and said worriedly, "Could that be an internal injury? Wait here. I'll call the nurse—"
