Catelyn almost burst with laughter at Edwin's reply.

She was amused that Edwin managed to put murder into such a sublime act.

She signaled him to look at the cross and said smilingly, "You might want to be mindful of what you

say in front of Him. God bless you."

Edwin glanced at the crucifix enshrined in the middle of the chapel. After Eugene's death, Sylvie would

come to recite the prayer for the dead whenever she was free. At the end of the day, it was an ordeal

for a mother to lose a son.

’I don't believe in gods or ghosts. I only believe in myself."

Catelyn seemed to have seen Cedrick in Edwin when he said that. Cedrick, too, never believed in those. As an

atheist, he felt that religion was just a form of psychological comfort.

"Forget it. Let's talk about your Christmas plan with Joanne. Christmas is coming soon, and no matter how much she

tries to hide, she'll need to go back to Atherton Manor. You know Grandma has been thinking about her grandchild

in Joanne's womb."

"Uncle Eugene has just passed away. It isn't bad after all to let Grandma have high hopes and look forward to

something."

"So you're still going to keep her in the dark?"

Catelyn frowned. The longer Edwin kept it a secret, the greater the impact Joanne would face when he debunked it

in the future. It was undeniably a snowball effect that would lead to an adverse outcome.

'What, then? Do you want Grandma to suffer another bereavement? Kitty, as Joanne's best friend, you should

understand that she came from an ordinary family with an upsetting growing environment. She won't be looked

down upon only if she moves into Atherton Manor when she's pregnant."

Of course, Catelyn knew Joanne's growing background very well. She lost her biological mother when she was a

child, and her father married her stepmother. She was not treated well by her parents as they were extremely

biased toward her step-sister. It was because of that that she entered the entertainment industry to make money

while still in college.

In fact, their family was fairly well-off as her father owned a medium-sized company with a constant annual income

of around several million dollars. He also had a villa in a good location in the city center. It was just that the

company was far from being comparable to the Atherton family's companies, hence Joanne was most likely nothing

different from an ordinary person in the eyes of the Atherton family members.

Catelyn stubbornly stared at Edwin and asked him for a cast-iron guarantee, "Promise me that no matter what

happens, you'll protect her well. If you hurt her in the long run, you'll find that she's a very distressed girl. I don't

want to see her hurt in the slightest."

Edwin smiled playfully but did not take it to heart. "You know I'm always protective of pretty ladies."

'She's not that kind of mistress you'll find out there!" Catelyn stressed angrily.

"Okay. Chill!" Edwin waved his hand. "I have an agreement with her that I'll make her the brightest star

in the circle of celebrities. She's my money maker now, so why would I hurt her?"

Catelyn felt annoyed and restless for Joanne. "You've been hurting her since the night you spent with

her in the Barricade Club. I accompanied her to the hospital for a body check that day, and you'll never

know how much she suffered. When she was taking the contraceptive pill, she felt wronged as if she

asked for the suffering, yet she was tough and didn't blame anyone, not even you! I don't think I'll ever

forget that day for the rest of my life.

"Cousin, if you don't love her, just let her go. Spare her, leave her, and be a f* ckboy if you wish!"

If it were not for the fact that Joanne had married Edwin, she would never forgive Edwin. She would

even file a lawsuit against him if he did not apologize to Joanne!

However, Edwin took a deep breath and said with a faint voice, intending to show dominance, "She's

not only your friend but also your sister-in-law now!"

In other words, he would never let Joanne go.
