In The Heart Of Cedric’s Affection Chapter 182
"Ms. Luxford, even if I've disrupted your marriage, just come at me with what you want to do to me! Tristan is just a child. Can you please spare him?" Vivienne's gentle and pitiful tone deserved sympathy.Sophie was amused by this theatrical display, smiling faintly as she reached out. Her slender fingers delicately toyed with Tristan's soft hair, showing no sign of pulling away for quite some time.Only when Vivienne could no longer tolerate it did Sophie withdraw her hand. A hint of frost crept into her gaze and smile as she warned, "Take better care of your son. Otherwise, he won't just get locked up next time."'What's the point of me playing the saint when the boy's mother doesn't even care about her own son?' Sophie convinced herself inwardly."Mommy?" Cherry's eyes widened in disbelief.Did she mishear something? She had just stepped forward to help her mother, so why would she take everything onto herself?"Cherry, go back to the room with Sasha," Sophie instructed.As

In just a few minutes, the much-anticipated "Daddy" arrived at the scene.When the onlookers saw that it was Austin, they were all shocked.When Cherry emerged just now, her face bore a striking resemblance to Cedric's. Moreover, Sophie and Cedric were once a couple, leading everyone to presume Cherry was Cedric's daughter.However, with Austin entering the picture, things became a tad more complex."Daddy, someone bullied me and Mommy. You must avenge us!" Cherry said, throwing herself into Austin's arms. Her tone was pleading, and her posture sought protection, which only seemed to worsen Cedric's expression.Austin rubbed the little head in his arms, reached out to hold Sophie on one side, and gently pulled her into his arms. At that moment, his broad chest felt like the most powerful support, protecting the mother and daughter from everything."How did you get bullied?" Austin's tone softened, but his gaze toward Cedric and Vivienne became icy and stern.Sophie felt somewhat

Austin then stretched out his arms, and a sweet smile immediately appeared on Cherry's face. She wrapped her little arms around his neck and exclaimed, "Papa Austin, I knew you'd always treat Cherry the best!""Cherry, go up first. Mommy has something to say to Uncle Austin." Sophie got out of the car and caught up to Cherry. Her solemn tone made the little girl stick out her tongue, obediently getting off Austin and turning around to go upstairs.Austin took the initiative to speak first. "Sophie—"Before Austin could form his sentence, Sophie interrupted him, "Cherry was just being mischievous and didn't know any better. You don't have to take the entire incident seriously."Today's event would not make much difference to her no matter how it was handled. However, Austin's mention of his relationship with her and Cherry made it impossible for her to pretend like nothing had happened."Sophie, do we have to keep such a distance between us? It's been five years. Why can't you atte

Back in the room, Cherry snuggled into the pink bed, her big round eyes getting more and more bloodshot. Before long, tears started streaming down the sides of her face."Mommy scolded me! Mommy's so mean! Bad Mommy!" Her aggrieved voice sounded choked with tears. Large teardrops gushed down even more fiercely, wetting a large area of the pink sheets.After wiping away her tears, Cherry waddled over to the bookshelves, pulled out a drawing album from the corner where it was least likely to be seen, and sat down on the carpet.Opening the album revealed a collection of drawings, some appearing eerily chaotic. It was difficult to discern their meaning. The only recognizable features were human heads, encircled by dark streaks that vaguely resembled beards."You're the worst! I hate you! I'll never draw you again. Cherry doesn't need a daddy like you!" As she complained, she forcefully tore at the pages, ripping them into pieces. In a matter of minutes, the abstract masterpieces had t

It was such a delicious lollipop that everything would be forgiven.Seeing her daughter's satisfied expression, Sophie smiled and rubbed the little girl's head. However, her gaze could not help but drift toward the trash can again.Ever since she picked up a paintbrush, Cherry had never painted anything else, thinking she had been very secretive.Upon noticing Sophie staring at the trash can, Cherry's expression, though enjoying the taste, turned somewhat unnatural. It seemed like her mother had discovered her little secret."Cherry, you've figured it out, haven't you?" Sophie asked.It was said that mothers and daughters were connected by heart. With Cherry's intelligence and emotional awareness surpassing others her age since childhood, she had likely discerned Cedric's identity at a mere glance."What are you talking about? I don't know anything." Pulling the lollipop out of her mouth, Cherry turned her face away. She truly wished she hadn't discovered or witnessed anything.

"As for Cherry, you've got less ground to bring her into this. Have you forgotten your child passed away in the hospital and then tragically in the cold seawater five years ago? And you're the one who allowed all these to happen?!" Sophie refuted.'I went through hell to save Cherry, and then bring her into this world. She's got no connection to that.'The scab on Cedric's heart was mercilessly torn open. Cedric let go of her, looked at the hatred in her eyes, and stepped backward.'She hates me! And I deserve it!'"I won't let my daughter call anyone else 'Daddy'!" Leaving the message behind, he turned and walked into the elevator. His posture was still upright, but an indescribable loneliness shrouded his body.It was not until the number above the elevator stopped at 1 that Sophie propped her arms against the wall by the door.Five years may have passed, but she still felt a deep panic whenever she faced Cedric, no matter how composed she seemed on the surface.She then looke

Thinking of the gloating expressions on those people's faces, Vivienne could not control her frustration any longer. She angrily threw her coat onto the couch and sat down."Mommy, I'm sorry. I won't do it again." Tristan's eyes flickered with unease. He cautiously approached Vivienne, wanting to reach out and apologize.Before he could touch her, she impatiently pushed him away.Tristan was not prepared for such a reaction at all, and the back of his head hit the sharp corner of the coffee table, causing his small face to contort in pain.A flash of distress flashed across Vivienne's eyes. She wanted to get up, but her anger overcame her eagerness. Impatiently, she glanced at Tristan on the ground and said irritably, "Aren't you going to get up? What are you waiting for?"Tristan obediently crawled up from the carpet, covering the back of his head with his tiny hands. He gnashed his teeth in pain but dared not make a sound."Mommy, I'm sorry. I'll listen to you obediently from n

Tristan was born abroad and had always been with his mother. Regardless of the laws in any country, they favored granting custody to the mother. He mentioned a 60% chance partly because of Cedric's identity and status."Mr. Carlson, personally, I suggest seeking custody through other means."For example, through friendly negotiations between both parties, although certain conditions would need to be attached.Cedric frowned slightly. "I see."'Despite my advantage in status, I only have a 60% chance of gaining custody of Tristan. It's no wonder Sophie dares to bring our daughter back here.' For the first time in over 30 years, he felt overpowered by someone, with the victory seemingly in the other party's hands.Despite this thought, he faintly smiled, his gaze briefly indulgent. 'Sophie, rather than battling for custody of Cherry, what I truly desire is to provide her with a complete family.'-At Luxford Group.Even though it was during working hours, it felt like they were h
