Chapter 550
"Don't move," warned Cedrick in a hoarse voice.
Catelyn listened to his heartbeat and felt the sudden urge to cry as she recalled all the sweet moments they shared
in the past.
Cedrick held onto her tight and refused to let go, and she picked up how his breaths grew deeper.
The temporary truce between them only existed because they were on the run, and they had no energy to consider
the past. Once they were safe again, the burden of the past would haunt them once more.
Her eyes reddened as a lone teardrop fell. She frantically tried to dry her eyes by blinking rapidly and forcing a
teasing tone, saying, "You sure seem relaxed considering the fact that we're being chased. I feel like those people
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtare aiming at you."
Cedrick did not respond.
The assassins were, indeed, sent after him, and Catelyn was merely bait to lure him here so they could kill him.
Cedrick noticed that the people who kidnapped Catelyn and the assassins that came after them were at completely
different levels.
The kidnappers were merely local thugs, while the others were professional mercenaries.
Someone had taken the time to create a trap just for him.
Cedrick took a deep breath before tilting her chin up to plant a few kisses on her.
Catelyn tried to move away, but he let go immediately and promised, "I'll take you away from here safe and
sound."
After getting ready, the two walked past a river and finally found a signal on their phones.
Cedrick reached Alex but was informed that both Alex and Charles were stuck deep in the woods as they had, too,
encountered numerous assassins along the way, so only a few men and a doctor were left on the trail that led into
the forest to wait.
When everyone heard that Catelyn had been found, they were all relieved.
Cedrick carried Catelyn all the way out of the Forest of Death and spotted the car from Mason Estate on the empty
trail.
The black Bently was parked on the side of the road, but the people who were supposed to be waiting by it were
gone.
Cedrick instinctively realized something was wrong.
Catelyn scanned around the surroundings in confusion and asked, " Where are your men?"

She had thought that they would finally be able to have Cedrick's wounds treated by a doctor once they were out of
the Forest of Death.
Just then, rumbling noises approached from afar as numerous cars came into sight.
All the cars in Mason Estate were Bentlys, and the ones that were approaching were of a different brand.
Cedrick realized that his men had been compromised and glanced at the bruise on Catelyn's knees. It would only
make the situation worse if they headed back into the Forest of Death, so he swiftly opened the car door and
commanded, "Get in the car."
However, an ominous feeling overwhelmed him as soon as he got into the car.
He narrowed his eyes and scanned the interior of the car, but they had no other options.
Before Catelyn could even fasten her seatbelt, he had already stepped on the accelerator. The car darted forward
and raced through the mountain trail as he continued to command her in a low but steady voice, "Fasten your seat
belt and sit tight."
Catelyn knew that there were people going after them and did not dare risk distracting Cedrick.
