Chapter 892
As she hastily shot up from Cedrick's hold, her body ached with pain from her injuries, and she almost
hit Cedrick's jaw, too.
She winced in agony.
Cedrick held her down quickly and sternly glared at her. Not allowing her to refute, he said, "You're
injured now, and you must go to the hospital for a body check! Leave this to me; I'll bring your
grandmother back safely."
"No," Catelyn said weakly, "Eugene has already betrayed his family and all relatives for the Atherton
family's assets. He must've used me to bait my grandma to the cruise ship. He must've known that I
was rescued and he has no way to escape anymore. Who knows he'd be so mad that he wants to die
with Grandma?"
"Don't you believe that I can save her?" Cedrick asked confidently.

Catelyn knew that Cedrick was easy to yield with sweet talks. Thus, she tugged at the hem of
Cedrick's clothes pitifully and rubbed her head against his chest. "Why wouldn't I believe in you? I just
reunited with my grandma, and I want to see her safe personally. Can you take me there? Otherwise,
even if I get to the hospital, I won't be able to calm down for a body check..."
"No. Your body can't bear it now." Cedrick insisted on sending her to a hospital.
Judging from the fact that Eugene kidnapped Catelyn and intended to send her to Southeast Asia, his hatred must
be profound.
'Who knew how Eugene would threaten her if she went to the scene?'
Compared to Granny Atherton, Cedrick only cared about Catelyn.
When Catelyn heard him, she refused to let go. She turned away angrily and shoved him off of her. "Fine. If you
don't want to take me there, then I'll do it myself, and I won't cooperate with the doctor when I get to the hospital.
If you're caught and threatened by Eugene, don't regret that I'm not there to help."
The determination in her eyes made Cedrick feel helpless.
'Why is she so stubborn?'
Cedrick leaned over and gently kissed her lips, wetting her dry lips. "What should I do with you?"
Catelyn pushed him away. "Don't kiss me if you don't agree."
Cedrick met her breath, stared into her eyes and, after a while, sighed helplessly. "Okay, I'll take you there. But
when you get to the cruise ship, no matter what happens, you have to put your safety first!"
"Will you?!" Catelyn instantly perked up. She wrapped her arms around his neck and offered a kiss. "You're the best,
my dear."
Cedrick stretched out his hand and flicked her forehead. "Remember what I said, you must never trade yourself for
your grandmother's safety, alright?"
Catelyn covered her throbbing forehead yet smiled. "I understand. I haven't lived enough and given birth to a little
princess for you, so how would I be willing to exchange my life for my grandma's life..."
However, deep down the hearts of the two, they both had a presentiment.

Eugene had never been happier.
Although he was worried that his plan was somewhat exhaustive to the point that he should plan step-
by-step before seizing Edwin's and Catelyn's power, he was relieved because he got Sylvie in control
by using Catelyn's safety as bait.
All along, he had been suppressed and looked down upon by her-his own mother.
He could not understand nor bear that all important projects in the company were assigned to an
outsider instead of him, Sylvie's second son.
He thought he could take advantage of Quinn and coax her mother to treat him a little better by giving
him all the inheritance, but in the end, he was just nothing in her eyes in comparison to Catelyn, the
granddaughter who
had been separated for 20 years.
Seeing Granny Atherton bowing before him, Eugene instantly felt that he had chosen the right method
to seize her inheritance that he had long coveted.
