In The Heart Of Cedric’s Affection Chapter 34
Ricky obviously sensed that something was awry. Looking up, he clasped his tiny hands onto Vivienne's finger and asked, "Mommy, who is this lady?""She's someone Daddy doesn't want to spend any money on." Before Vivienne could respond, Cedric had already supplied the answer, a cold and sarcastic gaze accompanying it.He then extracted a thick wad of bills from his wallet, tossed it into the owner's arms, and sneered wickedly as he glanced at the wooden carving and the large teddy bear that Ricky had taken a liking to. "Is this enough to purchase that teddy bear and that wood carving?""Of course! It's more than enough!" The owner's excited face blossomed with a wide grin as he promptly handed over the two items. This transaction was even more profitable than flipping houses.Cedric toyed with the delicate wooden carving in his hand, and then, with a flick of his wrist, an oak-colored object could be seen traveling into the distance.The wooden sculpture plummeted to the ground and

"That's enough. Do you want Ricky to see you drunk?" Cedric questioned in a reprimanding tone."Ricky? Do you know, if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have known how to keep going these past few years? Cedric, the biggest regret of my life is not being brave enough over three years ago to tell everyone that I love you. I would never have left you, no matter how many people opposed us and tried to tear us apart!"Vivienne gripped the empty glass, her eyes now misty with tears streaming down her cheeks. She tried to hastily wipe them away as if she were trying to restrain her emotions, smudging the delicate makeup on her face."You should hate me. I'm the coward here. I thought that if I left you, bringing Ricky with me, you wouldn't be threatened by your family or ridiculed by others. But in the end, I couldn't hold out and resist coming back," she said.Cedric's expression subtly changed as he recalled the scene he had witnessed the night Vivienne left.-Back then."Ms. Luxford,

On the side of the street, Sophie sat in the jeep for hours. She had been helped into the car after leaving the amusement park and hadn't shed a single tear since. She remained silent, maintaining the exact same posture as she stared fixedly out the window, which only made people feel more sorry for her.Austin sat next to her, feeling the pain but unable to comfort her.Sometimes, the quieter one became, the more the heart hurt, and when the pain had reached its peak, the last thing one would want to hear was comfort.Before it got dark, numerous people started leaving the amusement park.Austin rolled down the car window and glanced up at the sky, only then realizing that the weather had changed. The once fine weather had suddenly turned overcast as if spring rain was imminent.The cold wind suddenly rushed in, causing Sophie to shiver. Her eyes, which had remained motionless for a long time, finally shifted. "I'm sorry. Can you please take me back?"She was in so much pain tha

The sky grew ominously darker as if darkness had abruptly invaded, followed by large raindrops pounding down.Sophie looked up, raindrops falling into her eyes. They resembled the tears she had held back stubbornly as she gazed at the man before her."Cedric, if I'm the woman you've used, you should also be the man I've used. So why don't you ask Vivienne if she feels violated when she gets it on with you?" Sophie asked bitterly.'Marriage is meant to be a mutual relationship. Therefore, if I'm considered dirty, then how much better is he? Why would he have the audacity to come and mock me?' She could not help but refute inwardly."If it weren't for you threatening Vivienne to leave back then, do you think I would've had the chance to occupy and use you?" Cedric stretched out his hand, grasped her by the neck, and pressed her back against a nearby sycamore tree trunk. The fury in his eyes looked more terrifying than the encroaching darkness.Sophie was at a loss for words for a se

A bitter smile played at the corners of Sophie's lips. 'It seems that if I'm not going to be bitten to death today. I'll be struck to death by lightning…'Cedric's actions came to a halt as he observed her trembling. He frowned, grabbed her arm, strode forward, and swiftly dragged Sophie to the parked car nearby.Despite the air conditioner being off, the temperature inside the car was noticeably warmer than outside. Sophie's head felt groggy, and her entire body had weakened to the point where she could no longer struggle.Cedric's fury lasted for nearly an hour before subsiding. Seeing Sophie lying flat in the seat as if she was asleep, he felt agitated for no reason. "Don't think that I'll let you off just because you've fainted."With a forceful push from Cedric on her shoulder, Sophie's head slammed heavily against the door frame, emitting a muffled thud.Cedric was stunned for a moment. His hand immediately moved to her smooth and moist forehead. His expression changed insta

"Did I get it right?" Sean chuckled, his eyes, the color of peach blossoms, unable to conceal the wit beaming within.Cedric frowned in displeasure. 'It's just a guess, but how could he be so accurate?'"Don't give me that look. If you want to know how I figured it out, come to Crimson Bar. This month's turnover hasn't even reached half of what I expected," Sean explained.Originally, he had contemplated which friend to invite to boost this month's revenue, but now, someone had come to his door voluntarily."Behave yourself." Cedric snorted disdainfully, started the car, and headed toward Crimson Bar.In under five minutes, the Rolls-Royce was parked outside the bar."Boss, Mr. Carlson." Upon seeing the two men getting out of the car, the receptionist at the door immediately bowed at a 90-degree angle.Sean threw the car keys over. "Keep an eye on Mr. Carlson's car and bring two bottles of our most expensive wine to the private room. Charge it to his account.""Yes, sir," the r

The woman who eagerly sought to cuckold him should face severe consequences. Moreover, it was just a fever, so why was he so troubled, even anxious about it?"You can't conceal it any longer, can you? Let me ask you this: after being married to Sophie for three years, do you like or love her?" Sean asked."Huh?" Cedric was slightly puzzled upon hearing the question.However, after a moment of bewilderment, Cedric's expression dimmed. 'Has he lost his mind? Did he just imply that I've fallen for Sophie?'"I knew you'd make this face. How could you live with her for three years if you didn't like her? Don't tell me it was because of your grandfather's pressure. No matter how powerful he is, he'll never be able to force you to live with her," Sean analyzed.They were of the same kind. Living with a woman whom they did not love was impossible—enduring such a life for three months, let alone three years, was out of the question.Cedric pursed his lips tightly as the image of Sophie's

"Love is something that ferments in an unexpected moment. Before you even realize it, it will have grown beyond control. Bro, that's why I never dabble in it. It's just too emotionally exhausting," Sean said, taking a satisfied sip of his drink.He pondered the simplicity of relationships when reduced to mere transactions. Why bother with the complexities of emotions?"Cut the nonsense!" Cedric slammed his glass down, irritated. The idea of love between him and Sophie was absurd."Really? Nonsense?" Sean challenged, "Weren't you seething with jealousy seeing her with Austin?""That's because she was about to cheat on me!" Cedric's face flushed with anger at the mention of Austin.Sean teased him, "Now that's not fair. Haven't you strayed from Sophie more times than you can count? And let's not forget, you and Vivienne even have a son old enough to stir the pot."Cedric's lips twitched, but finding no retort, he just drank in silence. Two bottles of wine were quickly emptied, with
