Chapter 236


    Chapter 236 Time ticked by slowly. Catelyn was still lying sideways, with her shoulder almost numb. She


    finally could not resist it anymore and whispered, “Could you move your hand away, please?”


    There was no response.


    He was likely asleep. Catelyn’s eyes lit up a little, and she asked again tentatively, “Cedrick?”


    Only silence answered her.


    Catelyn was relieved that he was finally asleep.


    She inched away carefully from his arms like a snail. She tried to pry away his hand with small and light


    actions, trying not to wake him up. She was panting from all the work.


    After a full two-minute, she finally escaped from his arms and immediately rolled to the right side of the


    bed.


    She wished she could be invisible so as not to catch his attention. Unexpectedly, just when she thought


    she had gotten away safely, another w reached out to


    scooch her in again. “Hyperactivity?” His teasing voice sounded, “How could I sleep if you keep on


    moving around?”


    Catelyn blushed. She was flustered!


    He was not asleep at all.


    He was just ying with her right from the start.


    He did not hesitate to pull her back in when she finally escaped.


    He even called her to be hyperactive!


    He was such a…


    Catelyn was exasperated. Finally gave up and settled down and forced herself to sleep in his arms.


    It was quiet in the room again. Their breaths echoed, and their heartbeat synchronized. Their breathing


    tempo caught on with each other too. The warm moonlight shone through the window pane, filling the


    room. The night was beautiful, not more than their dreams.

    The next morning, Catelyn woke up dizzy, and her neck was a little stiff.


    The loud rm on her phone broke the silence.


    Catelyn was still sleepy as she squinted her eyes while trying to feel for her phone on the


    nightstand. Her phone was still vibrating incessantly. Her finger slid, and she identally pressed the


    answer button. “Ced, have you departed?” She heard a woman’s voice, so gentle and calm. Catelyn


    sprang up. The phone in her palm had a sleek outer, and there was no brand logo on it as it was a


    custom-made phone. She could hear the water whooshing in the bathroom.


    She took the wrong phone and identally answered Cedrick’s phone call?


    “Ced, are you there?” Janice did not receive a response, and asked once more patiently. Catelyn


    composed herself and sat up straight. She said, “Aunt Janice, Master Cedrick is… in the shower.”
