Chapter 861
"I've arranged for Eason to track down the whereabouts of this guy, so don't panic," said Cedrick.
"But since the man has stolen your appearance and is following you, it shows that he's been planning this for a long time, and I don't think it'll be difficult to catch him." Catelyn was thinking of asking her grandmother for a few well-built bodyguards tomorrow to watch over Miles and Ollie at every hour of the day.
The two chatted for a while, but Catelyn's screen suddenly froze on Cedrick's handsome face. "Hello? Can you still hear me?"
She fiddled with her phone and even tried another spot in the room, but the video remained frozen. Not long after, however, she realized that the internet was cut off.
Wanting to check the internet modem, Catelyn opened the door and saw Kelly standing nearby it, startling her. "Aunt Kelly? You scared the lights out of me!”
Kelly straightforwardly reminded her, "Miss Clark, there is an internet ban in the manor. You should go to bed already."
Catelyn was aghast to hear this. 'Why didn't I hear about the internet ban a few days ago? Could it be that Grandma found out that I was video calling Cedrick, so she had Kelly cut off her internet connection? I had enough!'
[Catelyn: I'm sorry, sweetie, but my grandma has cut off my internet.]
[Catelyn: Let's talk tomorrow. Good night.]
Catelyn apologetically sent two text messages to Cedrick, then threw herself into the soft mattress and covered herself in the quilt to sleep.
Meanwhile, in Mason Estate, Cedrick could not fall asleep.
When Catelyn and he were hunted down by Richard in Franche, he had a feeling that someone else was behind the scene and wanted to kill him.
As if that was not bad enough, Cedrick could not even hunt the man down as he left no trace of himself.
All of a sudden, a doppelganger of his popped up and framed him for an accident.
'Is he the same guy in Franche? Who is he coming for? Me, or the Mason family?'
The next day, Cedrick went to the Atherton Manor to pick Catelyn and the two children up to meet Ezekiel.
Although Sylvie was reluctant to let him do so, she knew this meeting would mean a lot to Catelyn, so she repeatedly told her to come back for dinner that noon.
"I will, Grandma." After Catelyn hugged Sylvie, she held Miles and Ollie's hands and got into Cedrick's car.
The two kids were sitting in the back while Catelyn sat in the passenger seat. She could not hide her happiness as she had been smiling since Cedrick arrived.
Even though she learned last night that the one who hit her stepmother was someone else, her mood was still not affected.
"What are you so happy about?” Cedrick asked.
