Chapter 11

“Aren’t you going over, Mr. Cedric?” the maid enquired in bewilderment. Cedric scowled and shook his head. He was unaware of the conflicting feelings and pain in his gaze. She might hit him with the vase if he went over now. His cell phone, which was in vibration mode, buzzed. He took out his cell phone in irritation, looked at the unfamiliar number on it, and rejected the call. His cell phone vibrated again when he was about to slide his cell phone back into his pocket. It was an unread text message. ‘Cedric, I’ll be returning to Carlosia shortly. How have you been?’ There was also a list of flight information below the sentence as well.He suddenly knew who it was. He felt even more conflicted as he looked at the words on the screen.He looked up and felt the raindrop fall onto his eyes. He then stuffed his cell phone into his pocket.The slender figure was gone from view when he opened his eyes once again and glanced at the tombstone. He glanced around and noticed that Sophie had

Chapter 12

“Sophie, you have drunk.” Austin felt indescribable distress as he reached out to comfort her as she sobbed. She was a strong, tolerant woman, but she claimed that she could not take it any longer. One could imagine how badly Cedric had hurt her. “I didn’t drink too much, Cedric. I want to end our marriage. I don’t want to love you anymore.”Sophie kept shaking her head and wiping away the tears that kept falling as she spoke. He was just a man; there was no reason she had to love him.Austin wanted to persuade her to think about getting a divorce after she sobered up, but he was suddenly struck in the chest before he could say anything, rendering him rigid all over. Sophie forcefully slammed her head into his chest. The alcohol had caused her to lose consciousness. All she wanted was to use her head as a weapon to smack the chest in front of her. Her mouth was full of alcohol as she muttered, “I hate you, Cedric.”Cedric sat on the sofa in the distance and watched. There were alrea

Chapter 13

“What nonsense are you talking about, Cedric?!” Austin was taken aback. His tone became serious as he said, “Sophia is drunk. I’m sending her back.”“Oh, so it’s my wife. In that case, you don't have to trouble yourself.”Cedric tilted his head and rubbed the corner of his lips with his finger. His eyes grew progressively colder in the darkness, but he still grinned and stretched out his hand to pull Sophie into his arms as he grinned even more menacingly and said, “I’ll send my wife home.”Sophie got chills and looked a little confused when she heard Cedric refer to her as his wife. She became aware that at some point Cedric had removed the coat that was slung over her shoulders and hung it on the partially open car door.“Drunk people tend to feel warm. Letting her wear this will make her feel hot.”Austin understood the meaning behind Cedric’s words. He suppressed his concern and smiled faintly as he said, “I’ll leave first, then. You take care of Sophie.”After saying that, Austin

Chapter 14

She was trembling from head to toe as the icy water kept pouring. Her anger rose, and she was unable to control it any longer due to the disdainful and sarcastic voice that was audible in her ears.She grabbed his wrist, opened her pale lips, and bit his slender fingers as if she was an enraged wolf. She seized the opportunity when he was in pain to suddenly tug on his shirt and draw him in so that he was standing under the shower head as well. Cedric did not expect that Sophie, who had always been forbearing all this while, would suddenly resist. A stream of cold water hit his expensive suit, drenching most of his face. His delicately combed hairstyle was also drenched by the water and stuck to his forehead in a limp and dejected manner, making him look even more disheveled. “You’ve been tormenting me since I married you. Why? I’m much cleaner compared to you—you are so filthy!”Although Sophie was horrified by what she had done, the rage in her heart did not give her any way out.

Chapter 15

The Carlsons were all preparing to have breakfast in the dining room downstairs. When Jeff saw that Sophie had not come down yet, he glared at Cedric, who was next to him, and said, “Why hasn’t Sophie come down yet? Go and invite her here.”“Dad, why are you asking Cedric to wake her up if she wants to sleep in?” Melissa gave the maid a look as she spoke and gestured for the maid to wake Sophie, but Jeff stopped her. “Because he did something wrong. I want him to go and get her.”Cedric stood up indifferently and went up to the second floor. When he walked to the door, he pulled out a small, exquisitely wrapped pill from his pocket. He had lost control last night and actually came inside her. He put his hand on the door handle but suddenly stopped. After a few moments of frowning and looking down at the pill in his palm, he eventually put it back in his pocket.As soon as Sophie changed and came out of the dressing room, the door was pushed open from outside. She thought that it

Chapter 16

“Explain what you mean.” Sophie scowled at the woman who had entered without permission as she set down the clothing in her hands. She had always respected and tolerated Melissa in the past out of her love and affection for Cedric, but it did not mean she would take Melissa's insults lightly.“What do I mean? What did Cedric do wrong? Your parents and sister died in a plane crash due to their own bad luck, so what has it got to do with Cedric? You are relying on the old man’s affection for you and his remorse toward the deceased as a negotiating tool. You’re even snatching the Carlsons’ shares, pressing for a divorce and insisting on moving out. Are you attempting to embarrass Cedric on purpose?”Melissa's tone became even more harsh and oppressive, and her eyes were filled with discontent. It was truly bad luck for her to have such a daughter-in-law.Sophie’s eyes brimmed with rage as she glared at Melissa and said, “You’d better watch your words. My family would not have been in t

Chapter 17

Austin’s usual smile returned to his face. In the following moment, he scowled and remarked, "I heard the maids saying that you are moving out when I came back today. Is this true?“Mm-hmm.” Sophie hummed in response. If she didn't have to see Cedric, time would go by more quickly. She would eventually feel glad when the divorce proceedings were over after a month.“I support your decision since you’ve decided to move out. I drove here, so I can drive you there after you’re done packing.”Austin was truly a gentleman. If it was not for his uniform that served as a constant reminder of who he was, it would be difficult for Sophie to imagine that the gentle and warmth man in front of her was a heroic and powerful man.Despite her desire to respectfully decline, Sophie could not bring herself to turn Austin’s offer down after meeting his sincere eyes. “Okay. Thank you.”After she was done packing her luggage, Austin helped her to bring her luggage down. Even though Jeff seemed hesita

Chapter 18

She was Cedric’s girlfriend while they were still students in university, and she was the woman he genuinely loved.Cedric had always been perceptive. Sophie was sitting in a conspicuous position, so he saw her as soon as he entered the door. His unruly gaze swept across Austin’s face, causing him to scowl a little before snapping back to his previous state. He looked away, lowered his head, and squeezed the delicate hand in his arm as he said, “You don’t have to think about it anymore. If you like, I can come here with you every day.”He had a tender tone and a doting expression in his eyes, as if he did not see Sophie at all.Vivienne, who was aside, already noticed the momentary shift in his feelings. A trace of shyness flashed through her eyes as she smiled. She then looked in Sophie’s direction, and her delicate red lips opened in surprise as she exclaimed, “Austin, you’re here too. What a coincidence.”“It’s truly a coincidence, Vivienne. We haven’t seen each other in a lon

Chapter 19

Cedric grinned, almost as if he had anticipated her response, then he scooped up the menu from the table and said, “We won’t hold back, then. By the way, you will earn enough to pay for the meal if you reach the upper trading limit after buying more of Carlson Group’s shares.”Sophie knew that he was mocking her for accepting the equity transfer from Jeff. She clenched her fists tighter but kept her temper in check and remained silent. “Give us one of each of the most expensive dishes here.” Cedric skimmed the menu a couple of times and impatiently passed it to the waitress, who was standing aside. The smile on Vivienne’s face froze for a moment before she returned to her former serene expression. Sophie felt as if she was living a posh life during this meal, but she could not help but scowl when she saw the four-digit figure when she paid the bill.Even if the price of Carlson Group's shares reached the trading limit, she would not be able to sell the shares, so she had to use h

Chapter 20

After enjoying the cold breeze outside for an hour, Sophie returned to her apartment and took a hot bath. She slept soundly till morning. When she woke up, she switched on the morning news on the television and went to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face. “The chairman of Carlson Group and a mysterious woman returned to their love nest late last night. He was quite attentive and lavished her with attention. This shows how important this mysterious woman is to Mr. Cedric.”Sophie’s hand that was holding the electric toothbrush froze near her mouth as the anchor’s voice sounded. It wasn’t until the bristles stung her delicate gums that she recovered from the feeling of having a lump in her throat and being unable to breathe.She turned to look at the television and saw a covertly recorded video showing on the screen. Cedric and Vivienne got out of the car together and walked hand-in-hand toward the door of a three-story villa. Cedric gave the woman a lengthy, passionate
