Chapter 301

Granny Atherton growled as she knocked her cane on the solid ground.

Granny Atherton had always been the most respected person among the Athertons.

She was no ordinary person, and Lola rarely got to see her in such anger, hence why she was ecstatic.

Catelyn had managed to anger Granny Atherton to such length. She could never win! "I know Catelyn did go overboard, Grandma, but she" "I'm talking to you!" Granny Atherton turned and glared at Lola. The air froze in seconds. Lola stiffened, and she could barely breathe. It felt as though an invisible hand squeezed her heart as her mouth gaped open in disbelief. "G... Grandma, you must be mistaken, right? Catelyn was the one you were angry at, and she-". "Why didn't you tell me earlier that this woman was Catelyn?" Granny Atherton had someone that she trusted to look for Catelyn after leaving the Chandier Jewelry shop. However, the shop's surveillance cameras had only managed to capture Catelyn's side profile; no one could trace her. Granny Atherton was, in fact, close to giving up on replaceing the woman. She could not believe that Catelyn was the woman she had been looking for. She was the same Catelyn that Lola had said to be a plagiarizing, dissolute, shameless, and despicable woman, no less! That day in the shop, Catelyn helped out a staff member whom she had no business or relations with. How could someone like her be whatever Lola had described her to be?

Granny Atherton was already biased toward Catelyn based on her appearance alone; she was furious when she thought back on how she had allowed Lola to run the car into her earlier. Lola was completely stunned at that point.

Had she not been saying that the woman was Catelyn?

Edwin carried Catelyn all the way to the patient's room.

Before the doctor could check on her, Cedrick arrived at the hospital. He headed straight to the hospital when he received Edwin's text message after his meeting. At this moment, Edwin had just placed Catelyn on the bed when Cedrick strode into the room and saw everything. Her face was as pale as a sheet of paper and with blood on her sleeves.

This was the same woman who talked to him endearingly and teased him while they had breakfast earlier that day.

Her face was scrunched in a lifeless way, and if it was not for her faint, rhythmic, breaths, he would have thought she was dead.

Cedrick's heart ached; he was furious and mostly distressed. What had she gotten herself into by just joining a competition?

Edwin placed her on the bed and retrieved his hands. He felt the air in the room suffocating as he turned to replace Cedrick frozen on the spot, his face dark and sunken.

"Calm down, Ced. Cat will be alright." Nothing was going through Cedrick at all. He shoved Edwin aside and sat next to Catelyn on the bed.

He slowly lifted her upper body and put her into his arms. His warm, big hand stroked her forehead and tested her temperature.

'No fever. That's a good sign.' “Check on her," Cedrick ordered the doctor, to which a checkup was conducted on the unconscious woman.

At this point, Catelyn was falling in and out of consciousness. She had not completely lost her senses yet as she could hear conversations in the room, but she was unable to make out who was talking.
