Chapter 910
Cedrick went to the balcony for a smoke. Ever since the incident where he broke up with Catelyn, he had picked up the habit of smoking again.
Catelyn finished drying her hair and came out of the bedroom. She looked around and saw that there was nobody around. She turned her head toward the balcony and saw a glimpse of a tall figure on it.
Cedrick took a deep breath as he finished his cigarette. Suddenly, a small hand stretched in and snatched the cigarette butt from his fingers.
Catelyn said angrily, "Smoking is not good for your health. You promised me you'd stop doing this. Well, why did you start again?"
Just as she was about to crush the cigarette butts and throw them into the trash can, Cedrick's big palm intercepted her small, fragile hand. He stared at her with his dark eyes and slowly exhaled smoke at her face.
Catelyn choked and coughed several times and stared back at him furiously.
When Catelyn woke up the next day, Cedrick was no longer by her side on the bed. She rubbed her slightly swollen head. Her cold had been cured for a couple of days, so why was her head still feeling so groggy?
She looked at the time. It was half past nine!
She quickly jumped out of bed.
Why did the alarm not sound?
In lightning speed, Catelyn quickly cleaned herself up and changed into a cashmere jacket, and went downstairs.
The living room was full of laughter. Draco was spending his time playing with wood blocks with the two boys.
As he saw Catelyn coming downstairs, he was not displeased at all and was smiling instead. "Ceddy said you were too tired last night, so I didn't ask the servants to wake you up. Anyway, there's breakfast in the kitchen for you.”
Catelyn guessed that the old man was thinking crookedly. She tugged her long hair and asked, "Where's Ceddy?"
