Chapter 1017
Catelyn did not listen to him, and she did not stop running.
Catelyn breathed a sigh of relief and ran to the second floor. She initially wanted to lock herself in the room to buy herself
time to think of another plan, but who knew that two maids just happened to come in the corridor on the second floor...
’Catch her!" Cedrick lowered his voice and ordered the two maids. "That's the order from Old Madam Atherton! I need to
take her away today!"
The two maids looked at each other and then looked at Kelly downstairs as if they were seeking confirmation.
Kelly nodded and said, 'Listen to Master Cedrick, stop Miss Atherton."
The two maids immediately spread their arms, blocking the aisle tightly. Seeing that, Catelyn could not go back to her
room even if she wanted to. She gritted her teeth and could only continue running upstairs...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSoon they reached the balcony on the top floor.
The balcony on the top floor was a greenhouse. Usually, Sylvie would like to hang out in it to cultivate her plants. For
convenience, there was a lift on the top floor that led directly to the ground.
Catelyn knew she could not outrun Cedrick at all, so she could only pin her hopes on that lift.
However, when she arrived at the lift, she realized that the lift was being repaired that day. In other words, she had
nowhere to escape now.
She was forced to stop because she was running non-stop, and sweat was dripping from her forehead. She turned
her head and looked at Cedrick, who was chasing her. He seemed to still be full of energy while she was already out
of breath.
'Catelyn, come here." Cedrick looked at Catelyn, who had nowhere to run. Besides restlessness and remorse, there
was anger in his heart.
Catelyn was horrified by his voice and moved back unconsciously, touching the fence on the top floor. "Stay away
from me!"
"I can stay away from you as long as you listen to me!"
"Listen to you?! And kill the child?!" Catelyn regretted that she did not come up with an excuse to flee abroad from
the very beginning so that he would never know that the child was still in her belly.
She was so anxious that her voice changed, and there was a hint of crying. ’ Don’t force me anymore! If you force
me again, I'll jump from here!”
After saying that, Catelyn climbed over the fence and stood on the top of the centimeters wide wall on the balcony.
A gust of cold wind suddenly flowed past, blowing her body precariously.
Cedrick's breathing became disordered.
As soon as Sylvie came to the balcony, she heard Catelyn say that she was going to jump off the balcony, and her

this out."
Although Atherton Manor was not a high-rise building, it was still several meters high.
Sylvie could not afford to lose Catelyn again.
'I also want to talk it out, but you didn't give me a chance to do so! You said this child is unhealthy. The test report
showed that the child would not make it. Why can't I decide the destiny of my own child by myself?" Catelyn yelled with
scarlet eyes.
Sylvie was also heartbroken. "Cat, calm down. We'll listen to you now! What do you want?"
Catelyn was really on the verge of despair. Everyone closest to her wanted her to give up her child. Her father, husband,
and even her grandmother...
'It's very simple. Give me another two months. We'll have another examination when the child is three to four months
old. I'll cooperate with both blood drawing and amniocentesis by then. If the report still shows that the child is unhealthy,
I'll abort him."
Sylvie did not want to irritate Catelyn anymore, so she nodded and persuaded her to get down from the wall.
She swayed in the cold wind as if she might fall at any moment...
