    Chapter 851


    ’I’m sorry, Ste. I should’ve visited you earlier.” Cedrick''s expression softened, and he admitted that his attitude turned better.


    Ste, however, got goosebumps as she stammered, ’T-Thank you, Master Cedrick. May I have a few words with Cat?”


    Cedrick got the hint and nced at Catelyn, who just happened to wink at him. He then nodded lightly and headed out, giving Ste some


    time to recover from the shock.


    "I''ll be waiting for you outside. If you need help, just call me."


    "Alright."


    With that, only Catelyn and Ste were left in the quiet ward.


    Ste seemed dehydrated as she looked visibly dry, although there were cold sweats on her forehead


    and the back of her neck. After Cedrick left, Ste''s breathing became stable. She grabbed Catelyn''s


    hand and said solemnly, "Cat, you must leave Master Cedrick. He''s a dangerous man!"


    "Mom, don''t think like that. Ceddy treats me very well..."


    Ste struggled to find words to further assert herself. After all, the rtionship between her daughter


    and Master Cedrick had always been strong as they were deeply in love. Even Quinn wanted to ruin


    that up, but she ended in a dismal end.


    Nheless, Ste felt if she did not make it clear to Catelyn, she would not see reason in her words.


    "Did you see the driver who rammed you that night?" asked Catelyn, getting straight to the point and


    wanting to find out if there was a misunderstanding.


    Ste''s face turned pale, and her heart raced at the memory.


    She gritted her teeth as the image of how she was hit by a car shed past her mind, and it was so


    agonizing that it felt as though her organs were torn apart.


    "Of course," Ste nodded heavily. "I know you won''t believe it, but I swear I saw it right. The person


    who hit me was your husband; he was sitting in the driver''s seat at the time. His eyes were abnormally


    fierce...!ike he was a beast! I think he deliberately elerated when he saw me rushing out..."

    The pain of being run over to the ground by a car was still vivid in Ste''s mind. Her shoulders


    trembled, and tears started to drop from her eyes.


    Catelyn wanted to ask more questions, but when she saw how terrified Ste was, she just could not


    do it anymore. She hurriedly hugged her andforted her gently while her mind was about to


    explode.


    ''Is it really you, Cedrick? But why do you have no impression of it at all?''


    "Ste, are you a hundred percent sure that the person in the driver’s seat is me?" At this moment, Cedrick, who was supposed to be at the


    door, pushed open the door and entered.


    His eyes were calm and soft, but Ste''s mind was haunted by the fierce, bloodthirsty, and cruel look in Cedrick''s eyes in the driver''s seat


    that night. She shrank into Catelyn''s arms and stuttered, "I—I don''t know. I don''t know anything! I won''t call the police. Please don''t kill me...


    Don''t kill me!"


    In just mere seconds, she slipped into a state of fragility and restlessness once more. Once Cedrick appeared, she became incoherent.


    Catelyn hugged her even tighter and gestured for Cedrick to stop talking.


    Cedrick spoke nothing after that and waited silently for Ste''s mood to be stable again.


    He came here mainly to make a final confirmation with Ste. After all, she was the victim who had seen the perpetrator.
