Chapter 222


    Chapter 222 L was undaunted by Edwin’s remark and was, instead, filled with self-reassurance.


    She had followed the correct procedure to disqualify Catelyn, and Edwin would never notice the w in


    this.


    Edwin sneered, “The giarized person was a Mason, and her name is Queenie, who had shamelessly


    tried to seduce me before. Just because of this, if Catelyn did indeed giarize, Queenie deserved it.”


    Granny Atherton’s eyebrows jumped as she heard his statement.


    Meanwhile, Cedrick drove Catelyn back to Ocean Path Residence.


    This man had helped buy her hygiene products and, in turn, was photographed by a female convenience


    store employee who posted it all online. Catelyn could not help but feel embarrassed by this situation.


    There was a strange feeling in her heart. After all, she had thought the items were delivered under


    Cedrick’s order. Meanwhile, Cedrick’s face looked rather grim. Looking at the rear mirror of the car, he


    noticed Catelyn was peeping at him from time to time. When Catelyn did it again, Cedrick quickly turned


    his head to her. “What are you looking at?” “W-What? I didn’t do anything!”


    Cedrick tapped the steering wheel with his index finger. “I have surveince cameras in my car. Do you


    want to take a look?”


    “I was just thinking about those hygiene productsst night! Did you…really buy them yourself?” asked


    Catelyn.


    Embarrassment shed across Cedrick’s face. His hand that gripped the steering wheel shook


    involuntarily, and the car nearly slipped.


    Suddenly…


    Thomp!


    Something mmed against the car’s rear, causing the entire car to shake violently, and the inertia


    caused Catelyn’s entire body to fall forward.


    The seat belt stretched over her shoulders, creating a faint bruise. Catelyn covered her shoulder with


    one hand and cursed her bad luck. However, she did not expect Cedrick to be in worse shape than her.


    During the impact, he was a little absent-minded. As the car behind rear-ended them, and because of his


    height, his forehead hit the sharp corner of the pendant in the car, tearing through his skin.


    Blood trickled down his face.


    “Oh my god, you’re bleeding!” shrieked Catelyn as she hurriedly took out a piece of wet wipes. “Keep


    your head down, let me see if the wound is serious. I’ll wipe the blood off for you.”


    The faint smell of blood filled the air. Cedrick reached out and touched his forehead, instantly feeling the


    moist blood on it.


    “The driver was too careless. I’m bleeding now…”

    Catelyn could not help worrying. “Should I turn around and go to the hospital for a bandage?” “Don’t go,”


    droned Cedrick “Wait here. There is a pharmacy opposite us, so I’ll go buy some medicine.” Catelyn


    shifted, intending to get out of the car when a warm hand grabbed her wrist. She quickly turned her head


    and met Cedrick’s narrow gaze and smile. “Are you that worried about me?” he teased.


    “You were injured while we’re on the road, just to send me home. I can’t bear it. I’d do the same for


    anyone else, so hurry up and let go of my hand!”


    “Is it so hard to get you to say something sweet?”


    Cedrick suddenly ducked and bit Catelyn’s finger.


    It felt like there was a surge of electric current on the spot on her finger where the tip of his tongue had


    crossed. Flustered, Catelyn hurriedly retracted her hand.
