    “No…” muttered Catelyn stubbornly, feeling pathetic that she had to endure the pain and his intrusion.


    She stared at the floor and prayed that the pain would subside, but a lump formed in her throat, and a


    sob escaped her.

    Tears scrolled down her cheeks, and it took Cedrick by surprise.


    She had responded with indifference, even when he pushed her up against the rockery stone, and she


    knew exactly what to say to provoke him. At this moment, however, her face was pale as a ghost as


    she curled up and panted from either pain or sobbing.


    “Let me see where you are hurt,” he spoke, softening his tone as his heart sank at the sight of her


    tears.


    However, as soon as he touched her, Catelyn pped his hand away. “Don’t touch me!” Cedrick’s


    voice grew cold at the rejection, hissing. “Will you listen if I go and wake up Miles and Ollie?”


    Catelyn bit the inside of her cheek at the threat. She bit on her lower lip to the brink of drawing blood


    without another word while Cedrick turned her around to face the wall and lifted her clothes.


    The fabric was glued to her skin with the water, so he moved with extreme caution, which Catelyn failed


    to notice as even the tiniest movement hurt.


    When Cedrick saw the wound on her back, he noticed specks of sand and rock stuck in her skin, while


    her back was inmed with signs of pus and infection. It was a frightful sight, and Cedrick realized it


    was from their interaction behind the rockery stone.


    “Why didn’t you say anything?!” roared Cedrick, enraged that Catelyn did not take care of herself.


    Catelyn suppressed her tears, refusing to look at his face by facing the wall as she retorted, “Would


    you have stopped if I did?”


    Cedrick clenched his fists.


    She was not wrong.


    Considering the situation at the time, his senses were ovee by rage after having to watch George


    carry her, so he might not have let her go even if he knew she was hurting.


    He loosened his fists and grabbed his jacket to cover Catelyn before dragging her out. “I’m taking you


    to the hospital.”


    Catelyn, however, refused to go out with her hair tangled in a mess and her form drenched from head


    to toe. “I can go on my own tomorrow.”


    “Catelyn rk! Do you really have to fight me on every single thing?” He tightened his grip around her


    hand and red at her coldly. “Is there a point in refusing to listen until 1 threaten you?”


    Catelyn lowered her gaze and allowed Cedrick to drag her downstairs where his car was parked by the


    road.


    Quickly unlocking the car, they entered as Cedrick then drove toward the nearest hospital speedily.


    Catelynid on the passenger seat with a loose jacket on her and watched as the scenery passed them


    by.


    She nced at the man next to her from the corner of her eyes.


    He seemed to be extremely anxious and was speeding the entire way. Thankfully, there were fewer


    cars


    on the road tonight. The one thing that upset her most, however, was that he had been in such a hurry


    that he was only wearing a white shirt on top. While that was excusable, his trousers werepletely


    soaked, and the water from the shower left an awkward-looking mark because his pants were not


    ck.


    He looked difited. Her eyes glittered with overwhelming emotions, and slowly, she began to drift


    off to sleep.
