Cedric had been in meetings all day and it was already ten at night by the time he was done for the day.

"Boss, Ms. Moore is still waiting in your office," Mason said helplessly with his head bowed.

He had told her multiple times that Cedric was busy and asked her to leave, but she was extremely stubborn, and this wait had lasted for more than two hours.

Given the woman's status, Mason couldn't simply ask her to leave, and it was quite exhausting for him.

Cedric's expression darkened. "I won't see her."

With that, he turned and walked into his office without looking back.

"Cedric ..." The woman was already leaving his office as he was entering.

Seeing Cedric make his way inside, her eyes reddened. She looked at him pitifully. "Are you really going to be this heartless?"

Cedric's expression darkened further, but he remained silent.

"Even if you don't care about the relationship we've had since childhood, can you really ignore the things my cousin cared about? You can ignore

    The office, which was already quiet, became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Astrid bit her lip and stared at Cedric stubbornly, her eyes filled with despair and anxiety. She was truly at her wit's end and wouldn't have dared to mention this name in front of Cedric otherwise. This name was taboo in front of Cedric, and no one had ever mentioned her ever since the day Cynthia passed away. She remembered one time when one of Cedric's friends mentioned it while he was drunk and he beat that friend until they had to be sent to the hospital.The Libra family constantly used Cynthia's name to seek Cedric's help and they all suffered for it, with the worst case being one of Cynthia's uncles, who went missing one day. At that time, Cedric made it clear that no one should ever mention this name again in the future, or they would bear unimaginable consequences. From then on, everyone obediently sealed their lips and avoided mentioning Cynthia's name. The Moore family and the

    By the time Cedric returned home, it was past midnight. Faye had already washed up and gone to bed. He took a shower and went into the room. Watching the woman asleep in bed, he kissed her on the cheek and sighed, wondering if she truly trusted him or if she simply didn't care enough. Someone went to her with photos of him with another woman, yet all she did was forward the photos to him. Did she not care what was happening in those photos?Everything that happened in the past was merely a misunderstanding, and he simply didn't explain himself because he was too lazy to do so. On top of that, years had passed and he felt that silence was the only way he could show respect to the deceased. However, if this would be used as a weapon against him, he didn't mind breaking the peaceful silence. That night, he had a hard time sleeping and woke up the next morning at the same time as Faye. "Morning." Faye rubbed her eyes, her voice hoarse and endearing. He planted a kiss on

    Kendall responded, "Why is it not a good thing? If I were Cameron, I would choose to leave Allure Designs and come to Light Moon Designs for a better future as well. "It's unfortunate that an outstanding designer like Cameron got involved with a company as heartless as Allure Designs. Light Moon Design is better, after all."Tracy replied. "No, Kendall. Cameron leaving Allure Designs and choosing Light Moon Designs would have been fine if this happened any other time. However, he has just exposed Allure Designs and before the lawsuit concluded, he went ahead and signed an agreement with Light Moon Designs.

    Upon hearing Astrid's name, Kendall's expression instantly darkened."No, it can't be! He's already married, so he can't possibly have feelings for that woman anymore," Kendall said hysterically, her eyes bloodshot.

He said that Grandma passed away and we need to go home."Clint jolted and collapsed onto the ground. "What?"Tracy smirked. "They can't reach you or Mom, so he called me instead. We need to go home right now.""Ha! So what if she's dead? She doesn't see us as family, so why should we go back?" Lizzie scoffed in contempt. Eleanor disliked her right from the start.
