Chapter 523
“I’m sorry…but right now, you’ve already lost me,” Catelyn declared coldly.
A wave of despair grew and spread from the bottom of her heart as she spoke, spreading to her limbs and bones
“Take back what you’ve said.” Cedrick frowned tightly. He grabbed Catelyn’s shoulders and shook her.” You’ve
already agreed to my proposal, and you’re wearing my ring! I won’t allow you to go back on it!”
“From the moment you deceived me, I can’t take it back anymore!” cried Catelyn. “If your goal is to torture me like
this, then congratulations, you’ve succeeded!”
Even after her family broke down four years ago, even after all the remorse of getting married to Jamie, Catelyn
was never this deep in agony.
She felt as if her heart had been crushed.
“You thought I was the only one torturing you. What about you? Didn’t you torture me?” Cedrick’s eyes narrowed in
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtagitation.
He kicked the coffee table beside his feet, and the items on it fell and scattered all over the floor.
Cedrick grabbed Catelyn by her chin as he hissed, “You weren’t pregnant with George’s child, yet you pretended to
be in front of me. I’ve asked you many times, yet you didn’t tell me the truth.”
Catelyn looked at him in astonishment. Tears flowed down her face once more as she felt her whole world collapse.
Cedrick decided to hide the truth about taking advantage of her because she was not truthful with him about her
‘pregnancy’.
It seemed as though all fairness in love was measured this way.
Catelyn had learned a lot.
Cedrick’s voice suddenly softened. “You’ve lied to me, and I’ve lied to you, so we’re even now. Shall we take a break
and cool down before we continue talking?”
“No more.” Catelyn took off the ring on her finger and handed it to Cedrick. “From now on, the engagement is
annulled, and this ring will be returned to you.”
Cedrick was mystified to see how Catelyn could be so heartless. He gritted his teeth and said, “Whatever I’ve given
has never been returned to me!”
“Since you don’t want it either, then I’ll just throw it away.”
“Don’t you dare!” Cedrick’s eyes lit up in anger, grabbing Catelyn tightly.
Would she truly do so?
Catelyn looked around and saw the trash can beside the coffee table. She took the ring and threw it into the trash
can with force. However, since she had not eaten today and did not have enough energy, the ring ended up falling
to the floor instead of landing in the bin.
Then, it rolled twice on the ground, before finally stopping with an audible ‘plink’.
It felt as though Cedrick was mocked for being stupid. He actually thought she would have a soft heart…
A bright, furious flame roared within Cedrick’s chest, stimulating every nerve within him. He had the urge to make

After all, he was no match for her heartlessness.
“You can throw the ring if you like. However, the engagement can never be annulled,” said Cedrick. “I think we
should calm down. If there’s anything more to be said, let’s talk about it after two days.”
With those words, he turned around and left.
Facing the empty room, Catelyn desperately wiped away her tears to make herself look less embarrassing. She
went to the bathroom to wash her face.
At that moment, she could make out the faint sound of footsteps in the corridor, but she did not think much about
it.
However, she did not expect several bodyguards dressed in black to stand outside the moment she opened her
door.
The bodyguards stood in front of her with solemn expressions. “Good evening, Miss Clark,” greeted the head
bodyguard as he bowed to her.
