Chapter 397


    Chapter 397


    Catelyn visibly rxed at the sound of the familiar sweet voice.


    Ollie pursed his lips with a mature look that did not suit a child his age. ‘Mom doesn’t want to leave


    Father either, right?’


    Two dayster, all online tforms and all screens across every street were broadcasting the news of


    the union between the Mason and rk families.


    Catelyn had thought that she would feel hurt when she learned the news, but she was unexpectedly


    calm and numb. After all, she had already bought her flight ticket and nned to leave Sapphire City on


    Cedrick’s wedding day. ‘From now on, we’re just strangers, Cedrick Mason,’ she thought. Joanne came


    to the airport to send them off. “Mom, are we really leaving Ollie?” Ollie clung onto Catelyn’s leg


    innocently, trying to imitate Miles as best as he could.


    Catelyn struggled to suppress the sorrow within him and said, “Miles, I know that you don’t want to part


    with Ollie as well, but…he’s already made his choice. I promise that we’ll sneak back to see him when


    we have the chance, okay?”


    Knowing that the sweet, innocent act would not work any longer, Ollie nodded and followed Catelyn


    quietly.


    Joanne watched as they went through the security check and gave Catelyn a big hug before they went.


    She then crouched and pointed at her cheek while looking at Ollie. “This is farewell to your godmother


    now, Miles. I just hate seeing you leave so much. I feel so sad whenever I remember the fact that I won’t


    be able to hold such an adorable boy in my arms from now on.


    “C’mon, give me a kiss.”


    Ollie scratched his head shyly as he pecked Joanne’s cheek lightly. Joanne flung her arms around him


    as she struggled to keep her tears from scrolling down her cheeks.


    Ollie suddenly pursed his lips. “Mommy, I want to use the bathroom.”


    With one hand on the luggage, Catelyn offered, “I’lle with you.”


    “It’s alright. You should spend some time talking to Godmother. I can go alone,” he insisted before trotting


    off awkwardly, as he had never run in public like Miles did.


    A lump formed in Catelyn’s throat as she watched the boy disappear into the crowd.


    She was finally leaving the city that she had spent the past 20 years in.

    “Joanne, please look after my mother.”


    Catelyn, after all, had not mentioned a word of her n to escape to Ste. “I know, don’t worry. So long


    as I’m around, I won’t let anything happen to her.”


    “Don’t spoil her, though. She… She’s the kind of person that probably thinks she can fly if someone lifted


    her high enough.” It was not a funny metaphor, but Joanne forced a smile regardless. “You’re leaving


    now, so I won’t say too much. I wish you all the best. Find a man that’s better-looking, richer, and taller


    than Cedrick Mason in Mrn, then bring him back to show Cedrick what he lost!”


    ‘How dare he abandon his child and woman to marry Maia?’ was what she thought but refrained from


    saying out loud. Catelyn smiled bitterly. She did not know if she had the courage to fall in love with


    another person after Cedrick.


    Just then, her phone rang. She thought that it was the airline notifying her about her flight, thus casually


    unlocked her phone. A secondter, she turned pale as her blood ran cold. On her phone was the photo


    of Miles being carried into a car by someone with his mouth covered


    Her hand trembled, and the luggage fell to the ground. Joanne hastily steadied her and said, “Look,


    there’s an additional message.”
