All Chapters of In The Heart Of Cedric’s Affection: Chapter 271 - Chapter 280

As the momentary darkness in front of her eyes faded away, Sophie regained her composure and walked toward the operating theater door. She then peered inside as if she were waiting for the verdict of fate.The renowned head of the neurosurgery department emerged from the theater, his weary figure indicating the challenging nature of the surgery."Doctor, how's my son?" Vivienne grabbed the surgeon's arm, her anxiety evident as she longed to rush in and take a look."We've successfully cleared all intracranial hematoma, but due to the location of the injury involving many nerves, I can't rule out the possibility of nerve damage. Prepare yourselves for the possibility that your son might never wake up," the doctor explained solemnly.Feeling the seriousness in the head's tone, Cedric narrowed his eyes, and his lips pursed into a straight line.After a few seconds, he asked in a dangerous tone, "What do you mean by 'prepare for the possibility that he might never wake up'?"He wante

Sophie could not even control the thought: 'If it was Tristan this time, what about next time? What if it is Cherry? What will I do then?'A hint of shock flashed across Jeanna's eyes, but it quickly turned into anger. "That's her biological son! How could she do such a thing?! Sophie, please stop overthinking and pull yourself together. You won't become like Vivienne! She's insane, while you're not!"Yesterday, chaos erupted as soon as the video was uploaded online. If Sophie did not pull herself together and face the upcoming waves, she would be carrying this burden forever."Pull myself together? I don't even know where to start. Should I continue to go all out and retaliate against Vivienne, and then wait for her to counter again out of desperation? If that's the case, who'll be the next victim?" Sophie's lips struggled to curve into a smile, but it felt even more agonizing than crying.Seeing her like this, Jeanna felt both heartache and urgency. She knew better than anyone el

Evander parted his lips hesitantly. "Mr. Carlson, Ms. Luxford is..."When the woman was throwing eggs at Sophie just moments ago, he felt as though Cedric's fists might punch through the window. However, he refrained from intervening, allowing Austin to play the hero and win favor."If she can't endure this trial, the road ahead will become even rougher, with more challenges in the future," Cedric muttered, turning away.His jaw muscles tensed as he ground his teeth, the fierce gleam in his eyes betraying his inner turmoil. Yesterday, at the hospital, he had wanted to embrace her desperately, yet all he could do was watch her leave.Knowing that revealing the truth was the best protection he could offer at present, he resisted the urge to rush to Luxford Group and pressed his lips together. "Have you reviewed all the surveillance footage?""Yes, but the incident occurred in the restroom, where there are no surveillance cameras. We only have footage from outside the restroom," Evan

Sophie stared at the clues in front of her, feeling a throbbing headache forming at her temples. The surveillance footage provided scant leads.-It was already the third day since Tristan's surgery, yet there were no signs of him regaining consciousness.Cedric stared at the boy lying on the hospital bed, his lip pursed tightly."Tristan, please wake up, okay?" Vivienne sat right next to the bed, holding the tiny hand with tears streaming down her cheeks. But no matter how much she called out to him, Tristan seemed to be lost in a deep slumber, motionless."Doctor, what's Tristan's situation now?" Cedric asked."Mr. Carlson, theoretically speaking, the patient should regain consciousness within three days after surgery. But based on the current situation, it's better to prepare yourself mentally to wait for a bit longer," the doctor explained."No! Dr. Lawson, please save my son. I can't lose him. He's so young! He can't become a vegetable!" Vivienne pleaded, dropping to her kn

Sophie placed the empty can on the table and bowed her head, her eyelashes concealing her emotions as her voice trembled softly.Cedric's outstretched hand remained suspended in the air before clenching into a fist. The pain radiating from his eyes seemed darker than the depths of the sea, yet he could only withdraw his hand in silence."I've been haunted by so much hatred these past five years." Sophie seemed to be truly sleep-talking. In the dream, she was talking to herself, needing no response. She lifted her head, her eyes fixed on the constantly churning waves.She had chosen to return to take revenge on those who had hurt her, but why did the feeling of revenge not bring her the joy she had expected?She suddenly chuckled out loud and stood up unsteadily. "I must be drunk."She was intoxicated to the point where she unwittingly deluded herself and allowed long-suppressed emotions to resurface after five years. So intoxicated that she couldn't differentiate between love and
