Chapter 449

“No…” muttered Catelyn stubbornly, feeling pathetic that she had to endure the pain and his intrusion.

She stared at the floor and prayed that the pain would subside, but a lump formed in her throat, and a sob escaped her.

Tears scrolled down her cheeks, and it took Cedrick by surprise.

She had responded with indifference, even when he pushed her up against the rockery stone, and she knew exactly what to say to provoke him. At this moment, however, her face was pale as a ghost as she curled up and panted from either pain or sobbing.

“Let me see where you are hurt,” he spoke, softening his tone as his heart sank at the sight of her tears.

However, as soon as he touched her, Catelyn slapped his hand away. “Don’t touch me!” Cedrick’s voice grew cold at the rejection, hissing. “Will you listen if I go and wake up Miles and Ollie?”

Catelyn bit the inside of her cheek at the threat. She bit on her lower lip to the brink of drawing blood without another word while Cedrick turned her around to face the wall and lifted her clothes.

The fabric was glued to her skin with the water, so he moved with extreme caution, which Catelyn failed to notice as even the tiniest movement hurt.

When Cedrick saw the wound on her back, he noticed specks of sand and rock stuck in her skin, while her back was inflamed with signs of pus and infection. It was a frightful sight, and Cedrick realized it was from their interaction behind the rockery stone.

“Why didn’t you say anything?!” roared Cedrick, enraged that Catelyn did not take care of herself.

Catelyn suppressed her tears, refusing to look at his face by facing the wall as she retorted, “Would you have stopped if I did?”

Cedrick clenched his fists.

She was not wrong.

Considering the situation at the time, his senses were overcome by rage after having to watch George carry her, so he might not have let her go even if he knew she was hurting.

He loosened his fists and grabbed his jacket to cover Catelyn before dragging her out. “I’m taking you to the hospital.”

Catelyn, however, refused to go out with her hair tangled in a mess and her form drenched from head to toe. “I can go on my own tomorrow.”

“Catelyn Clark! Do you really have to fight me on every single thing?” He tightened his grip around her hand and glared at her coldly. “Is there a point in refusing to listen until 1 threaten you?”

Catelyn lowered her gaze and allowed Cedrick to drag her downstairs where his car was parked by the road.

Quickly unlocking the car, they entered as Cedrick then drove toward the nearest hospital speedily.

Catelyn laid on the passenger seat with a loose jacket on her and watched as the scenery passed them by.

She glanced at the man next to her from the corner of her eyes.

He seemed to be extremely anxious and was speeding the entire way. Thankfully, there were fewer cars

on the road tonight. The one thing that upset her most, however, was that he had been in such a hurry that he was only wearing a white shirt on top. While that was excusable, his trousers were completely soaked, and the water from the shower left an awkward-looking mark because his pants were not black.

He looked discomfited. Her eyes glittered with overwhelming emotions, and slowly, she began to drift off to sleep.
