Burning Love Cute Husband and His Little Wife-Chapter 371
371 Get Lost
Isabella didn’t knock because she had the key. Before she got inside, she just wanted to change into a pair of slippers and leave a note. The moment she opened the door, a very strong smell of alcohol filled her nostrils.
All over the ground were wine stains, empty and half-empty bottles, broken glass shards all over the floor, and pieces of the porcelain that was previously on the table.
“Cedric, are you...”
“Mr. Cedric, please spare me!”
A woman cried out, which startled Isabella. Isabella looked at the closed door of Cedric’s room. She forgot to change her shoes and rushed inside.
When the door opened, Isabella was stunned and took a step back in horror.
Joseph came over hurriedly. Right after stealing a glance inside, he covered Isabella’s eyes and pulled her to the side.
The master bedroom was a mess. A naked woman’s hands were tied to the bedside. Cedric was on top of her, leaving his clothes unbuttoned.
The bed made a loud noise.
.....
Cedric seemed to have heard some noise and turned to look at the door.
Then he blinked a few times and shock was all written on his face when he saw Isabella, whose eyes were covered by Joseph.
Joseph frowned and snapped, “Cedric, put on your clothes and come out!”
Cedric stared at Isabella and staggered down from the bed. He walked straight to Isabella and reached for her hand. “Isabella, you’re back...”
Joseph stood in his way.
Joseph pulled Isabella to his side and pushed Cedric’s hand away. “Put on your clothes! Cedric!”
Cedric finally noticed his messy clothes and immediately tidied them up. However, he still reeked of alcohol and couldn’t get his head on straight. He reached for Isabella’s hand again. “Isabella, are you back for dinner? Wait a minute. Let me see what we have got in the fridge. Let’s cook.”
“Cedric...”
Isabella pulled away Joseph’s hand and turned around with tears streaming down her face. “Why did you become like this...”
“I ... I just...”
Her tear-streaked face seemed to remind Cedric of something. Her eyes went dull and his tone changed. “Isabella, are you here to get back together with me? Have you made your decision?”
Isabella was stunned.
“Who will you choose, Joseph and I?”
Cedric’s voice became hoarse and the way he looked at her was gloomy. “I can forgive you for last night because you took the medicine and lost your mind. Now tell me your decision.”
Isabella looked down and said, “Cedric ... I’m here to say goodbye...”
Cedric’s hand paused when he heard this.
“I’m sorry for what I have done to you before...”
Isabella wiped her tears and continued, “I shouldn’t have agreed to be your girlfriend on the blind date. Clearly, I was just taking that as a way of avoiding reality ... I’ve wasted your time ... Cedric, I’m sorry ... I still want to be with Joseph...” 𝑓𝑟eℯ𝒘𝗲𝑏n𝑜𝚟𝙚𝒍.𝒄o𝐦
Cedric took a step back and bumped into the door frame behind him.
His reaction shocked Isabella and she immediately went to help him, but he shook her off.
Joseph’s eyes lit up and went up to support Isabelle in silence.
Cedric sneered.
Then he touched his forehead and seemed to have finally understood something. “You did choose him as I had expected. I knew it ... Isabella, I was so stupid to think that you had changed your mind.”
This sneer gave Isabelle goosebumps and she had never seen Cedric act like this.
Normally, Cedric was gentle but now the frosty aura around him was frightening.
Cedric staggered back into his room and climbed onto the bed. Then he brushed the small wounds on the woman’s fair body, which caused her to cry out in pain. She seemed to be very afraid of Cedric, given her muffled cries. She wriggled her body, trying to get rid of Cedric. 𝐟𝚛e𝐞𝙬𝗲𝒃𝓷𝒐𝘃e𝒍.c𝑜m
Isabella looked at Cedric and gritted her teeth. “Cedric...”
“Unless you stay with me, apologize to me, and tell me that what happened last night was a mistake and you shouldn’t have had any feelings for her...”
Cedric got straight to the point. This time his voice was much clearer yet terrifying as if he was sober. “Otherwise, get out of my way and you will become a stranger to me.”
Isabella looked down and bit her lower lip.
“Talk!”
Isabella’s reaction angered him. “Tell me that you are sorry about last night, it’s your fault, and you came back today to apologize to me!” Cedric roared.
Isabella shook her head and said firmly, “Cedric ... I like Joseph. For you ... I still can’t ... I’ve always taken you as my brother.”
Cedric fell silent for a while before saying, “But I don’t need a sister. Get lost!”
Isabella trembled. Joseph squeezed her shoulder from behind and said coldly, “Let’s go, Isabella. Don’t look at them again.”
Isabella’s tears flowed down her cheeks as she gasped with grief. Joseph wiped her tears but couldn’t keep her face dry. “Let’s go now.”
Isabella only raised her head to look at the unfamiliar Cedric. Then, she finally turned around and followed Joseph to the main entrance.
Then she paused by the table, took out her apartment key and a bottle of stomach medicine from her pocket, and placed them on the table. She said in a low voice, “Cedric, you’re running out of your stomach medicine ... I bought you more. Remember to take it on time.”
The apartment door was closed.
The coldness in Cedric’s eyes was gone instantly and his eyes went dull.
A howl came.
The woman next to him moaned and said, “Mr. Cedric, go on with the trick. I enjoy this gratifying pain. I like it so much. It’s so good. I...”
“Fuck off!”
Cedric glared at her and roared, “Get out, all of you! I promise you’ll suffer if I see you again.”
The several girls shouted.
Frightened by his words, they shoved their things into their bags and scurried out of the room. Now the room returned to its previous peace.
The terrifying and lonely peace.
Cedric leaned against the side of the bed and the grief made him pant heavily. He felt this was the darkest moment of his life.
He realized that he had lost Isabella for good, and the indignation and sudden loss were driving him crazy.
“Isabella...”
Cedric seemed to know that Isabella wouldn’t come back to him again. He ran to the door of the apartment in vain. She had long disappeared...
