Chapter 768
"Your mother was in the hospital because of a car accident, and you're hiding the news from me?!" Cedrick ignored her accusation, and his expression became fierce. "She's injured and needs help. You should tell me that instead of trying to change the subject of the topic! What the hell are you doing? Are you guilty?!"
"I'm not! I'm just... I..." Catelyn bit her lower lip.
"What is it, then?" Cedrick continued to pressure her, wanting to hear what explanation she could come up with.
He thought that they had gone through so much that she would trust him no matter what, yet he did not expect her to keep secrets from him. If she had long told him that Miles and ollie were his, there would not have been so many things happening.
That would only seem to him that she did not trust him wholeheartedly.
Catelyn was about to go mad because of him pressuring her. Abruptly, she thought of something and blurted out, "Do you have twin brothers?"
Cedrick frowned and stared at her suspiciously. "Excuse me?"
If Cedrick did have a twin, the elder of the Mason family would not hand over the Mason Group to him, and he would not hide him from her.
That sounded heartbreaking and unbelievable to him.
Catelyn's body's strength seemed to be drained in an instant, and there was a sense of powerlessness filled up her muscles.
She could not help admitting her guilt. She neither wanted to be hurtfully blunt with Cedrick nor face the truth of him hurting Stella.
However, Cedrick was sensitive and brilliant at the same time. Associating the car accident with the abnormal behavior of Catelyn that stared at his car's scratches, Cedrick suddenly lowered his eyes and asked, "Don't tell me that you thought I'm the one who hit your mom?"
"I...didn't say that."
"That's what you think!" Cedrick sneered as if he finally understood something. "You suspected that I ran into your mother yesterday and then ran off. Now you come and interrogate me as a suspect! Is this what you call loving me?!"
His questioning was like a needle pierced into Catelyn's heart. " Can't you just tell me what you did yesterday?" she feebly retorted. "What are you hiding?!"
"That's two different things at all!" snapped Cedrick. He grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her to the Mercedis Maybach.
As Catelyn's hands and feet still felt limp, she was dragged all the way as she staggered.
"Let go of me! where are you taking me?!"
Cedrick turned a deaf ear, put her in the passenger seat, and slammed to lock the door afterward.
Catelyn tapped the car window vigorously but to no avail.
After that, Cedrick also got into the car, started the engine, reversed the car, and made a detour to the accident center of the traffic brigade in Ocean Path Residence.
