Chapter 784
Cedrick returned to the Mason Group after leaving Shoal Villa.
It was late at night, but the video conference with Euro had not yet officially started.
He directly informed Charles that there was no need to postpone it. At the end of the video conference, both
parties had confirmed the business cooperation, and all they needed to do now was to wait for the follow-up details.
"Master Cedrick, it's a pleasure to have the chance to do business with you," said the other party in the video.
Cedrick replied expressionlessly, "Гт looking forward to it too." Then cut off the communication.
He rubbed his temples with his long fingers. On the way back, he thought that something was wrong. If Catelyn
really cared that he had hit Stella with his car, she should have shown up immediately in the morning, not a day
later.
What happened during the moment when her bodyguard lost her?
The chill in Cedrick's eyes flashed away, and he called the bodyguard again. "Go and investigate the moments after
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou've lost Catelyn, where she went, and who she saw. If I don't have an answer, you don't have to come to work
anymore."
The bodyguard responded tremblingly.
After Cedrick hung up the phone, he sat alone in the office for a while. The neon lights outside the floor-to-ceiling
windows flickered. The whole city was vibrant and full of energy. The noisier it was, the lonelier he felt.
When Cedrick returned to Green Islands, the maid was still there, not daring to leave the two children at home
alone since Catelyn had left.
Seeing Cedrick coming back, the maid looked behind him subconsciously. Seeing that there was no trace of Catelyn,
her heart tightened, and she asked in a trembling voice, "Master Cedrick, have you eaten? Shall I cook you a
meal?"
She knew Cedrick was in a bad mood every time his wife was not around.
"No, go to sleep," Cedrick said expressionlessly and walked towards the children's room.
There were many shopping bags in the children's room, which were piled up in the corner.
Catelyn must have been in a hurry, not even having the time to unpack these things...
Or perhaps she was just afraid of waking up the kids with all the noises and movements from packing.
The two boys slept soundly. Their unworldly cheeks resembled that of a woman who would leave without saying
goodbye.
Cedrick's eyes dimmed again, and he silently closed the door of the children's room.
As Cedrick walked through the living room, every inch of the space here reminded him of good memories.
Cuddling together on the sofa, watching soap operas together, working, eating, massaging one another...
Cedrick's chest trembled slightly, and he walked back to his bedroom in silence.
He turned off the lights in the living room, and only the slanted light from the street lamps outside the window
poured in, which only lit up the room very dimly.
Cedrick returned to the master bedroom, and the woman who would bring him the pajamas with a smile was gone.
It was said that if one were to do the same thing for twenty-one days repeatedly, it would eventually become a
habit.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStanding stiffly for a moment, Cedrick entered the bathroom to wash up. In the midst of it, he realized that he did
not have his pajamas. He yelled out habitually, "Catelyn, I forgot my pajamas. Could you..."
Cedrick stopped talking abruptly and instantly realized that Catelyn had already left. How could he forget this?
No one responded to his pajama request. The deepest part of his heart seemed to be missing. Cedrick turned off
the shower and walked naked to the wardrobe in the bedroom. His clothes would always be hung neatly on the left
side of the wardrobe. However, when he opened it this time, it was empty.
She was gone.
This place could no longer be called home.
Cedrick changed into a pair of black pajamas casually and dried his hair. He sat on the edge of the bed and
inadvertently glanced at the bedside table...
He saw a post-it note with words written on it.
Cedrick quickly took the note and turned on the bedside lamp.
"I wish you health and happiness. I wish you wealth and everything else you could wish for. May your love always be
added. May it never be subtracted. May your household multiply, and may your hearts never be divided."
Cedrick stood up abruptly, staring at the words with cold and stern eyes.
Catelyn did not want to leave him either, did she?
