Chapter 809
"Who's worthy then?! Catelyn? A murderer's daughter and a bankrupt lady? what has she done to make you fall so
deeply for her?" Elder Mason's face turned pinkish red because of anger, and he suddenly sat up from the bed.
"The doctor said you need to rest. I'll go first and see you when I have time."
Cedrick turned his head and strode out without the slightest hesitation.
"Stop right there!" Elder Mason's anger was fueled by Cedrick's sudden leave. He grabbed a pillow by his hand and
threw it at him. " Mark my words! If you don't settle the prenuptial agreement and marry Quinn, you'll never see
Catelyn again for the rest of your life! II
Cedrick's eyes suddenly became deadly cold.
With his darkened eyes, he calmly stared into Elder Mason's eyes.

He was right. His grandfather was pretending to be sick all the while.
Elder Mason was stunned for a moment, and after a long while, he said, "Are you very dissatisfied that I can sit up
now? You'd only be happy if I got into a coma because of you, wouldn't you?"
"I didn't mean that. There is a lot of work left with me in the company, and I'm really busy. Take care. I will let Ollie
stay here with you for a few days." Afterward, Cedrick gently picked up the needle that fell on the ground and put it
on a nightstand before striding out.
Elder Mason rolled his eyes involuntarily, grasped his left-sided chest, breathed heavily, and cursed bitterly with all
his force, "You brat!"
Since Cedrick refused to settle the prenuptial agreement, Elder Mason was left with no choice but to force him to
do it.
When Uncle Ford came back, he gave his order, "Go to Catelyn and ask her to tear up the prenuptial agreement. If
she refuses, cut off a finger of Ezekiel and give it to her."
Catelyn had a series of strange nightmares that kept waking her up in the middle of the night.
She felt that her body was light and airy as if her soul had escaped from her body, crossed the boundaries of time
and space, and appeared in a huge prison.
The prison was located on an overseas island and was one of the most secluded prisons in the world. Ezekiel was in
it, surrounded by a group of strong and fierce people of different races. They kept instructing him to do all kinds of
vile and dirty things and seemed to take pleasure in torturing him. Those people would snicker contentedly,
watching him covered in blood and sweating profusely.
Catelyn wanted to rush over and protect her father over and over again, but she was just a soul floating in the air,
penetrating through Ezekiel's body every time she tried.

Catelyn screamed and woke up from the nightmare, grabbing the quilt and breathing heavily with cold sweat all
over her forehead.
Miles, who slept with her, was awakened by her scream and immediately got up from the bed. "Mummy, did you
have a nightmare?"
He carried the tissue box over with his little hands and grabbed a piece of tissue paper to wipe off the sweat on
Catelyn's forehead.
The soft and concerned voice startled Catelyn. She almost fell off the bed, but when she saw that the little figure in
front of her was Miles, she hugged him tightly in her arms. "I won't leave you again ... I will never leave you..."
The suffering of being a bystander that could do nothing but watch others suffer had drowned her like a wave.
It was too scary to be true.
Although Miles did not know what nightmare Catelyn had, he gently patted her back with his tiny hand, trying to
give her the most sincere comfort. "Miles knows, and Miles is here. Don't be afraid, Mummy, I will sing to you..."
