    Chapter 522


    Cedrick did not even care that Maia fell on the sofa earlier. His ignorance toward her broke her heart.

    How could Catelyn have won Cedrick’s heart? Was it because of Miles and Ollie?


    Catelyn did not want to continue a meaningless confrontation with Cedrick.


    As soon as she turned her head, Cedrick unexpectedly grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her into his


    arms with ease. His sturdy chest cling tightly to Catelyn, and his warm lips brushed against her


    eardrum.


    “I’ve got someone to book a flight to Las Vegars the day after tomorrow, and we’ll go there and register


    for marriage,” said Cedrick.


    “Cedrick, do you like me?” Catelyn interrupted him.


    He thought for a while. If Catelyn was willing to spend the rest of her life with him, he would not reject it.


    “It’s more than just liking you,” Cedrick said gently.


    Hearing his answer, Catelyn gritted her teeth, feeling that she was about to lose her breath. She pursed


    her dry lips and asked, “In that case, are you willing to help me? I want you to investigate the person


    who took advantage of me that night a month ago.”


    Cedrick looked at Catelyn with a heavy gaze. “Of course. I won’t let anyone hurt you.”


    Smack!


    Catelyn pped Cedrick across the face and broke free from his embrace, shooting him a spiteful


    re.” Unfortunately, I’ll never trust you again.”


    The atmosphere instantly became tense. Cedrick’s face flushed red after Catelyn pped him.


    He turned angry in an instant and stared at her with a burning gaze. “Come again?”


    “I’m not marrying you,” snarled Catelyn.


    She and Cedrick stood less than a meter apart, but Catelyn felt as if she was much further from him.


    “The person who knocked me out and took advantage of me in the castle that night… Was it you?”


    Earlier, Catelyn harbored a small gleam of hope. As long as Cedrick was willing to admit and exin


    himself, maybe she would be calmer about it.


    s, he still lied to her.


    What did he take her for? The biggest fool in the world?


    Cedrick suddenly understood Catelyn’s unusual attitude, and it was not because of Maia.


    In Catelyn’s mind, Cedrick was the culprit who took advantage of her that night!


    “It wasn’t me that night-” muttered Cedrick.


    “You don’t have to argue,” Catelyn interrupted him. “I’ve checked the surveince camera, and the


    footage showed that it was you who carried me into the castle in person.”


    Hearing Maia’s words, Catelyn was only skeptical at first and did not dare to jump to conclusions.


    Confused, she went to the security room of the castle. There were many antiques on the premises, so


    cameras were set up all over the ce to prevent any servants from stealing them.


    Catelyn spoke to the person in charge and easily dug out the surveince footage of that very night.


    “You know, I understand,” said Catelyn. “I know you hated me at the moment, right? But how could you


    pretend that nothing happened? Does it satisfy you to see me feeling scared and guilty?”


    Her tears fell as she spoke.


    Catelyn blinked desperately as she tried to quell her tears, but her eyes became misty quickly.


    Cedrick looked at her red eyes and clenched his fists.


    It was useless to argue. The best he could do was to exin himself.


    “That’s right. It was me who took you that night,” admitted Cedrick. “But it was because I saw you and


    George together, and I couldn’t help but feel jealous! I wanted to tell you about this, but I was even


    more afraid of losing you again!”
