Chapter 773
Uncle Ford did not say what would happen otherwise, but Catelyn understood.
It turned out that Elder Mason not only nned to use her father to threaten her but also nned to get rid of her together if
necessary.
She was not afraid of death, but she was afraid that her father would be hurt. She lost her biological mother when she was a
child, and though Ste took care of her, she could not give her the maternal love she wanted most. It had always been her
father who supported and encouraged her by her side.
Four years ago, her father had an ident, and that ced her in great suffering. Today, she finally had a little bit of hope,
knowing that her father was not dead, still, she could not give up her love and two children.
''Happiness is only one step away, but why can''t I get it?'' shemented.
After Cedrick had dealt with the traffic brigade, he came to the hospital to pick up Catelyn, only to find
that she was not in the hospital at all. When he called thepany, Jolene told him that Catelyn had
taken leave for the day.
Cedrick frowned, but just as he was about to call the bodyguards assigned to look after Catelyn, they
rang him up and guiltily confessed they had lost Catelyn. Cedrickcursed, thinking of the footage that the
police showed him, and was worried if Catelyn was deliberately avoiding him.
When he went home helplessly to change his clothes, he was rather surprised to find that someone
was hiding in the quilt. He quietly approached, lifted the quilt from a corner, and saw Catelyn lying
quietly on the bed with her eyes widened.
Her eyes met his.
Cedrick''s mind finally eased off as he breathed a sigh of relief. " Didn''t you say you were in the
hospital? why did you run home without telling me?"
Catelyn pinched her thigh intensely, preventing herself from crying out of sadness, she had cried many
times already, so she should not be crying over it anymore lest Cedrick would find it out. "I didn''t have a
good restst night, so I came home to take a nap, " Catelyn exined softly and stretched out her
arms for a hug. " Can you hug me?"
Cedrickgently lifted her from the bed. she sat on hisp while he leaned over to pick up the shoes on
the ground and put them on for her, without the slightest impatience or disgust.
Catelyn leaned into his arms and listened to his steady heartbeat. " My ssmate in elementary school
asked me something. Can you give me some advice?"
"What''s the matter?"
"My ssmate secretly married her boyfriend, but her boyfriend''s grandparents are against their marriage, so they used the
rtives she cared about most to force her to divorce him, or her rtives will die. How do you think I should answer her?"

"Her boyfriend is that much of an ipetent guy?"
Cedrick smirked sarcastically, but Catelyn immediately exined, " It''s not ipetence, but because the elders in her
husband''s family are too arrogant."
"He can''t even protect his own wife and her rtives, so that''s definitely ipetence." Cedrick deeply despised the man
Catelyn was making up. "If he can''t keep his promise to protect her, he shouldn''t marry her at all. That''ll only hurt her more."
Catelyn''s nose suddenly became sore.
She leaned her head against his shoulder and asked softly, "You mean...they should get divorced?"
