    Chapter 890


    When Cedrick, Eason, and several bodyguards arrived at the door of the warehouse, a harsh gunshot was heard. Following the first shot


    were two more deafening sts.


    Bang, bang!


    Cedrick, who was already a bundle of nerves, felt his heart skip a beat when he heard the sound of gunfire.


    "Quick, find Mistress Catelyn!" barked Cedrickto his subordinates and quickened his pace, running toward the source of the sound.


    The closer he got to the warehouse, the more anxious he became.


    ''No, no... Catelyn''s fine... She can''t be the one shot!’


    He kicked open the ajar door, and when he saw the scene inside the warehouse, he froze.


    Catelyn was covered in blood, standing less than two meters away from the door, clutching the pistol tightly in both hands. Her clothes were


    torn to shreds, revealing her pale skin riddled with fine scratches and dripping with blood. Her cheeks were also swollen in red.


    She had gone through too much; that was the one thought that haunted Cedrick.


    On the ground, a man was lying in a puddle of blood, shot twice in the stomach. He was shivering and


    gasping for air.


    Alfred, too, was lying on his back with injuries all over his body. There were two bullet holes in his legs


    and chest, and the front of his clothes was torn, revealing a bloody gunshot wound.


    The air was filled with the nauseating smell of blood.


    With the gun still at hand, Catelyn shivered violently, unable to think.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    When she heard the door being kicked open, her pupils shrank, her shoulders trembled, and she


    almost subconsciously aimed the gun at Cedrick who rushed in. Her eyes were scarlet and full of fright;


    the kind of fright that one would only possess when on verge of death.


    "Catelyn..." Tolerating his headache, Cedrick called her name in a low voice.


    He did not dare to be too loud for fear of provoking the frightened Catelyn.


    The only thing that was left on his face was distress.


    He med himself for beingte and swore to put Eugene to death by torturing him the same way his


    men had done to Catelyn.


    He then softened his voice and coaxed, "Don’t be afraid, Cat. It''s me, Cedrick! You''re safe now. Let''s


    put down the gun first. Don''t hurt yourself...’


    Catelyn was softly coaxed by the familiar voice. Her pupils shrank again as she regained a sliver of her


    consciousness.


    Still, she did not let go of the handle of the pistol as she was still in shock after a life-and-death crisis.


    Eason was also taken aback, but he quickly ordered all the bodyguards to turn their heads, not allowing


    anyone to have any chance to peek at Mistress Catelyn.


    Cedrick did not miss Catelyn''s every expression. He spread out his arms, indicating that he was no


    harm, and approached her very slowly. "Do you remember me? I''m your husband and the father of


    Miles and Ollie. They’re waiting for US at home. Come on, put the gun down now..."


    ''Family...? Take me home?''


    Thud!


    The ck pistolnded on the ground with Catelyn, whose Strength had been drained.


    Cedrick hurried over and took her tightly into his arms.


    "Cedrick?" Catelyn clutched the hem of his clothes tightly and slowly opened her eyes.


    In her line of sight, Cedrick''s worried look gradually became clearer.


    She threw herself into his arms and mmed her fist against his chest harshly, crying her heart out until she was out of breath.


    "Why... Why are you only here now? Did you know that I almost...


    ''I thought I’d never see you again!"


    Cedrick quickly took off his coat and put it on her, wrapping her scarred body, feeling extremely remorseful and guilty. "I''m sorry. I''mte! But


    I''m here now, and I won''t let anyone hurt you anymore..."
