Chapter 451


    Chapter 451


    Cedrick turned toward Catelyn and asked her to go see the doctor,


    Catelyn thus walked into the doctor’s room, all while many pairs of eyes were on her. Without much of


    a choice, she steeled herself and ignored the gazes.


    It was a male doctor.


    Catelyny on her stomach on top of the emergency room’s bed while the doctor asked the routine


    questions. The doctor was about to check Catelyn’s wound, reaching for her shirt, but Cedrick grabbed


    his wrist with a frown.


    “What are you doing?”


    “L…I’m checking her wound.” The doctor froze at how suddenly he was halted and said in frustration,


    “How am I supposed to look at it without taking her shirt off?”


    Catelyn turned her head and said to Cedrick softly, “Just lift the shirt and show the doctor the wound.”


    “I’m requesting a female doctor!” demanded Cedrick.


    He would never allow another man to take her shirt off,


    “Are you crazy? It’s in the middle of the night, and there are only two doctors on call at the moment.


    You either let me do it, or get the hell out!” the doctor growled as he shot a heated re at Cedrick.


    Catelyn wanted to say something to ease the tension, but when she looked at Cedrick, she noticed


    how his lips were pursed tightly together as he shot the doctor a cold, murderous re


    The sight sent chills down her spine. It was as if he was looking at his prey.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    The male doctor felt the chills from his re and eventually gave up, asking the nurse to call in a


    female doctor that was on duty.


    Catelyn’s inmed wound looked ghastly against the white bed sheet. The female doctor carefully


    picked


    e tiny rocks that were still on the wound before disinfecting and wrapping it up.


    Cedrick dragged a chair and sat next to Catelyn by the bed, holding her hand tightly.


    Catelyn tightened her grip as the doctor disinfected her wound, and Cedrick could even feel her palm


    getting sweaty.


    It was moist and sticky, but not once had he let her hand go.


    His eyes traveled to her arms and slender hands, with nails painted crystal-like pink.


    “She’s pregnant. Make sure to prescribe medicines that are safe for pregnancy,” came Cedrick’s deep


    voice that broke the silence in the room.


    The doctor looked at Catelyn with envy and said with a chuckle, “That exins why your boyfriend is


    treating you with such care. Our obstetrics department is just across the room. Would you like to do a


    check-up while you’re here?”


    Catelyn felt her scalp tingling upon being stared at so intensely. “It’s okay, I’m good.”


    Cedrick sat up immediately and red at Catelyn’s abdomen before saying, “You stay here while I


    register for a walk-in.”


    “I’m really fine.” Catelyn grabbed his hand, refusing to let go. “I’m also really tired, and I don’t want to


    stay out here any longer.”


    Cedrick looked down at her and said hoarsely, “You’re the one that’s refusing a check-up, not me. Don’t


    me me if anything happens to the baby!”


    Catelyn felt like a joke.


    Should he not be wishing that she would have a miscarriage? It was hard for her to imagine him


    expressing care toward the baby.


    “Cedrick, I didn’t-”


    Beep, beep, beep!


    Catelyn’s sentence was cut off by her phone’s ringtone.


    She swiped her phone and picked up the call from her sons. They were probably anxious since no one


    was home at such ate hour.


    After consoling the two boys, she looked at Cedrick’s cold, intimidating face and decided that there was


    no point in exining herself to him. Next time, then.
