Our Billion-Worth Twins by Velvet Antler novel Chapter 756

Chapter 756

Cedrick had always wanted to bring her to see his mother.

However, due to a lot of reasons, this was always postponed.

The big four families each had their own cemeteries in which they buried their ancestors centuries ago.

Only the people listed in their family book could be buried here.

Therefore, even though they were legally married, as long as the Mason family prohibited Catelyn's name in the family book, she would not be buried here after she passed away, she would also not enjoy respect from the descendants after her. In other words, she would be seen as just a mistress to the later generations.

Catelyn noticed the cemetery drawing closer and said cautiously," Are you bringing me to see... my mother-in-law?"

"Yes." Cedrick pinched her soft hands and looked into her eyes with a gentle gaze.

Catelyn could not help but feel nervous. She looked at her casual loungewear and said, "Why didn't you inform me earlier? At least let me change into a pair of proper clothing. I am underdressed. Would she think that I am disrespecting her?"

"My mother will not mind it. As long as I like it, she will like it too. " The closer they got to the grave, the more wrenched Cedrick's heart was.

That was because... His mother's name was not on the family book either.

Catelyn did not notice the gloom in Cedrick's expression because she was too nervous.

She knew that Cedrick cared about his mother a lot...

She felt disgraceful and disrespectful to have come to see a deceased in loungewear.

The graveyard forbade people from parking their cars nearby and had metal fences around the area. There were twelve security guards taking shifts to watch over the place 24/7. Any unauthorized trespasser would be prosecuted. The Mason family was very serious about it.

The tall fence looked extra grim in the moonlight.

However, when they got near the cemetery, Cedrick brought Catelyn into an alley.

Catelyn followed closely behind him and looked at the main entrance to it, full of questions. "Aren't we going to see my mother -in-law?"

"She is not in there," Cedrick explained in a slightly depressed tone.

Catelyn noticed his gloomy expression. The Clark family had the same rule too, that you could only be buried in the cemetery if your name was on the family book. In other words, her late mother-in- law was not in the family book, and the Mason family sacrificed her to keep Cedrick's life.

There was also another patch of graveyard right opposite the private cemetery. It was also a guarded one.

This was built by Cedrick for Daphne Coleman.

Cedrick brought Catelyn to a bigger grave. It was circular, and the tombstone was rectangular. There was no photo on the tombstone but a realistic engraving of Daphne's face on it.

She was a very elegant and gorgeous lady.

She resembled Janice very much, only healthier and had more naivety.

There was a bouquet of fresh flowers before the tombstone.

Someone will change the flowers every day because mother loved fresh flowers.

"Mother." Cedrick's hand caressed Daphne's name, engraved on the tombstone. He said in a husky voice, "I have not visited you in a long time, are you well? I have married Catelyn. I am sorry to only have brought her to see you after so long."
