Chapter 1231 "I'll have more motivation to lose weight after eating," Catelyn argued.

Cedrick was silent for two seconds and compromised.

"It's okay to eat popcorn, but don't eat too much or drink anything cold."

Catelyn sweetly took his arm. "Copy that, hubby!"

Then, she flatteringly pointed to the bar. "Then go stand in line for popcorn. I'll wait for you in the lounge over there."

Cedrick was speechless. His resigned expression disappeared, and his face immediately darkened.

In the end, Cedrick dragged Catelyn to the line together. They interlocked their fingers, enjoying the rare good time.

They booked tickets at the last minute, so the movie they chose was only a niche art film that had just been released. The film depicted a mother who lost her daughter in a natural disaster and subsequently established an elementary school in the disaster area to adopt orphans, and eventually, the mother was named one of the Top Ten Great Figures. The film was based on a real story.

In the film, the mother came out of the tragedy of losing her daughter and treated every orphan as her own child...

Catelyn was so moved by the mother that she couldn't help trembling.

Cedrick sensed it. He reached out, wrapped his arm around her waist, and pressed her head down on his shoulder.

A feeling of security and contentment came over her...

Two days later, early in the morning.

The warm sunlight penetrated through the gaps in the curtains and shone on the man and woman in the bed. Catelyn rolled over, feeling like a fireplace was on her side. She unconsciously burrowed into his arms, wrapped one arm around his strong waist, and slowly opened her eyes.

Cedrick had woken up, propping his head up with one hand, his eyes tenderly staring at the face of the peacefully sleeping woman.

Perhaps because she was a little tired from playing games with the two children last night, her brow was slightly furrowed.

Cedrick reached out to smooth out her brow when Catelyn's cell phone suddenly rang.

Catelyn was awakened. She picked up the phone on the bedside table and was immediately refreshed.

"It's Ezekiel calling!"

"Looks like he can't take it anymore. Pick it up and listen to what he has to say," Cedrick grimly sneered. "Don't forget to record it."

Catelyn nodded, pretending to be indifferent as she pressed the answer button with hatred. "It's you? What are you calling for?"

"Cat, Cat, it's me..." When Ezekiel heard Catelyn's voice, he didn't care about Catelyn's attitude. He just kept begging and speaking incoherently. "I know I was wrong, but I raised you for 20 years, right? I'm you dad anyway. I don't want to die, but I'm being hunted by Mr. Denham, and I'm desperate. I'm begging you..."

Catelyn's eyes were full ofcoldness. "You're my dad? I only have one dad, and his last name is Hensley."

Ezekiel was dumbfounded, but he really couldn't replace a better person to ask for help.

Those business partners in the past all avoided him after knowing he was out of jail.

His connections in Sapphire City had been weakened after he disappeared for a few years, and Catelyn was the only one who might be kind enough to save him.

"I'm sorry, Cat. I know I'm a bastard and not worthy of being your father, but I'm begging you. For the sake of the happy childhood I gave you, please help me out! Can we meet and talk face to face?" Ezekiel pleaded humbly.

Catelyn had intended to trick him.

She wanted to reject him twice first, letting him suffer the panic of being hunted at any time.

That kind of living in constant fear could completely destroy a person's willpower.

But the next moment, Ezekiel played his trump card." Cedrick is with you, isn't he? Tell him that when I got out of jail, I found another clue about Mr. Denham! If you can save me this time, I will tell you the clue. Your daughter was stolen, right? It was probably this Mr. Denham who..."
