His facial features were already well-defined, but his face looked even sharper with him being tense.

Cedrick might look composed from the outside, but Catelyn could feel that he was not all that calm at the

moment.

“Cedrick, I didn’t betray you…” Catelyn spoke up after having mustered her courage.

“Mhm,” Cedrick replied loosely.

Catelyn quickly stretched out her slender fingers and held his hand, her eyes focused on his. “I know that

I slip up sometimes, but I’m serious this time-please believe me!” cried Catelyn.” No matter what

happened, I didn’t reveal any of that information to the outside world!”

Catelyn was so anxious that her explanations were a little incoherent. She used to not care about what

Cedrick thought of her, but things have changed. “Think about it: when Javier and I came out of the

company, those motorcyclists were waiting for us since morning! Also, they were just trying to intimidate

me into confessing, but I wasn’t hurt by them. It was obvious they were trying to divide us.” Catelyn tried

her best to explain to Cedrick, and her voice became high-pitched as she spoke. However, Cedrick never

answered her.

“What do I have to do to convince you to believe me?” asked Catelyn worriedly. She reached out and

grabbed his wrist. “Do you want me to be tortured by those people? Is that what you

The next moment, Cedrick suddenly gripped her jaw.

Cedrick’s eyes lit up with anger in an instance as he looked into her eyes demeaningly. “I can believe

that you didn’t say anything. Tell me: what did you and the Ninth Master talk about in the car yesterday

afternoon?” For a split second, Catelyn’s face turned pale, and there was panic in her eyes. He saw her

being dragged into the car by David?

Cedrick looked at her quietly, and there was a small spark of hope that she would tell him everything.

Even if there was any questionable deal between her and The Ninth Master, he was willing to listen.

However, even after a while, Catelyn did not answer.

Cedrick shook off her jaw. “Before you want others to believe you, shouldn’t you look at yourself in the

mirror first?” he sneered. “Catelyn, I don’t care if you’ve leaked any project information, but I am curious

about the fact that you’ve been into the Ninth Master’s car.”

With that, Cedrick went upstairs without looking back once.

Catelyn, already in a vulnerable state at the moment, slumped down the sofa cushion when Cedrick

flung her away by the chin. She felt like she had been stabbed in the heart.

So this was how it felt to be abandoned by someone who used to care for her.

Catelyn sat numbly in the living room for a while until the servant came to remind her that the room had

been tidied.

Just as she thought, Cedrick did not allow her to step into the master bedroom but a secondary bedroom

inside the children’s room instead.

Catelyn laid in bed for a long time, not falling asleep. To set something up like this, many conditions must

be met at the same time. Two of them were very subtle.

Winnie had suddenly asked her to work overtime this afternoon, and Javier even brought all that

information to her.

If Catelyn did not see the project’s core information, no matter what David did, she would be innocent.

Were Winnie and Javier the ones who framed her, or was it all just a coincidence? Catelyn sat up from

the bed abruptly, feeling the coldness creeping into her skin. Javier’s guilt toward her was pretty strange.

It seems that it was not just because she diverted those bikers away in the parking lot, but it was him

feeling guilty instead. He could not even have the courage to look her in the eye.

No. Javier must have had something to do with this! Not caring that it was practically late at night,

Catelyn took the phone and dialed Javier’s number straight away.
