“Cedrick?”
Catelyn was shocked. How did her phone end up in Cedrick’s hands?
“It’s me,” replied Cedrick coolly, languidly. “What happened at the Mason Estate today wasn’t something that I expected, but I am grateful that you came to visit Ollie. Is your forehead better now?”
Catelyn hesitated for a brief moment.
Maia’s injury was more severe than hers, no doubt. She would have responded defensively had Cedrick reprimanded her, yet she was shocked to hear how…kind he was in reality. In turn, Catelyn could not help but behave in a genial manner, too. After all, what happened between Maia and her had nothing to do with Cedrick.
She even bit his hand that time.
“It’s only a light injury, but I’ll be fine in no time. Can you return my phone, please?” “You want it back?” Cedrick did not answer her question straightforwardly and instead, questioned her in return, his voice deep and alluring as he did. Catelyn inwardly cursed, though she mustered a smile outwardly. “I’ve been using this phone for a few years, and there is a lot of data and contact details important to me inside. They’re useless to you, too! How about you tell me your whereabouts now. Are you at Mason Estate? I’ll come over right now.. “I am not free right now,” slowly and steadily, Cedrick interjected her mid-sentence. Catelyn felt pale anxiety creeping into her as she quickly asked, “When are you free, then?” “I’ll send it to you when I’m free.”
“No, I wouldn’t wanna bother you. I can go and get it myself! You’re at Mason Estate, right? Or
“I’m busy now. Talk to you later.” Cedrick’s lips curved upward as he hung up without further hesitation, leaving a frustrated Catelyn feeling high-strung.
He was Cedrick, who hardly had any free time. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
It was impossible to feel secure without a phone in this era!
This was so frustrating!
Cedrick, as he hung up, accidentally tapped on something, and Catelyn’s phone gallery popped up.
Catelyn usually organized her photos into albums, thus various photos of her having fun with her friends and some private photos were shown. The background of the photo seemed like a bedroom of a luxurious mansion.

The bed was pink with soft veils draping over it. Bohemian-themed rugs were draped all over the floor, and on the walls were photos of a young girl.
Catelyn was a princess in her own kingdom back then. She looked carefree and youthful in high school.
She smiled sweetly at the camera, her eyes telling tales that he had never heard of, and shining with lights that he had never seen before. Cedrick found himself lost in it.
His fingers gently swiped across the screen as he went through a few pages of the photos. Catelyn was always smiling as though free from troubles and woe. In one photo, she was dressed up and surrounded by people at a dinner event; in another, she was on stage to receive some prizes.
Every photo in the gallery showed her most glorious accomplishments in the past.
Suddenly, another album caught his attention.
[My Baby and Me.]
‘Baby’?
Cedrick pursed his lips, his head hung low as his slender finger tapped the screen. He found himself looking into the album. A photo of Catelyn and Miles at the amusement park popped up.
