Chapter 493

Cedrick was taken by surprise as he did not expect that this would be what haunted Catelyn instead. His expression

darkened as he opened his mouth to say something, but Catelyn beat him to it.

“I know you don’t like tainted goods, just like how I hate being forced.” Her fingers twitched before relaxing as she

met his gaze. “Miles and Ollie are both wonderful and sweet children. If you want to make it up to us, just let

everything stay the way it is now. I can raise them with you, and they’ll have everything that other kids have.”

After the measuring session, Miles and Ollie’s clothes would be finished within a week, just in time for when they

needed them.

When the twins stepped outside, they noticed Catelyn’s reddened eyes and Cedrick’s dark expression.

Though Miles did not wish for his mother to accept Cedrick again so soon, he hated seeing her sad when they

fought.

The two started doing whatever they could to cheer Catelyn up, and Catelyn narrowed her eyes with a chuckle,

She should be content to have wonderful children.

Her smile under the warm sunlight created a ripple in Cedrick’s eyes like a rock thrown into a lake.

He gulped harshly and lowered his gaze. He seemed riddled with guilt as though he had done something wrong

again, but he did not know how to tell Catelyn the truth.

Without another word, he left the mall with the three and planned on taking them to an Eastern cuisine restaurant.

After all, that seemed to be the common preference for Catelyn and the twins.

The boys ran toward the roadside to wait for the traffic light to turn green.

Just then, Cedrick noticed the neon board above Catelyn was loosening. With a snap, it fell.

“Watch out!” He paled, unable to imagine what would happen if such a heavy board was to fall onto her.

Catelyn noticed that her shoelaces were undone and crouched to tie them when she heard Cedrick’s shout. She

gazed up and saw Cedrick frantically running toward her, his expression the extreme mixture of panic and fear to

the point that his eyes looked as though they would pop out of their sockets.

She followed his eyes and looked up, just in time to catch sight of the shadow cast by the gigantic board that

loomed over her.

Catelyn’s mind went blank, and at the very last moment, she took an impact by the waist. Cedrick managed to

reach her and held her in his arms, sending the two of them rolling on the ground as he protected her from harm,

like a lion would with his lioness.

The neon board plummeted to the ground, and the ground seemingly quaked upon the impact.

All Catelyn heard was the sound of wind and the muffled, pained grunt by her ear as her world spun.

Though Cedrick had moved swiftly, the board dropped in a way that somehow brushed past his right arm.

“The neon board fell and almost killed someone!”

A few passers-by witnessed the scene and hurried over to help.

Catelyn laid on the ground and stared up blankly at the man who shielded her.

His face was pale as blood scrolled down his right arm in the most alarming manner. At that very moment, she

could not breathe.

Cedrick struggled to prop himself up while staring intently at Catelyn as though he did not notice his injury. “Are you

okay? Are you hurt?”

Feeling a lump in her throat, she helped him up with the help of a passer-by. “I’m fine! Y-You’re the one who’s hurt!”

She was in grave danger, and she did not expect him to dart toward her, rescuing her. ‘What would have happened

if the board hit him on the head?’ she fretted internally.
