A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 353

"Cedric, don't be angry, okay?" Abigail jumped down from Nacho's arms and walked to Cedric. Although Cedric was not in a good mood recently, he never showed his anger or sadness in front of Abigail.

He squatted down, hugged Abigail and said, "I'm not angry."

"The baby is so funny. I'm his aunt. Cedric, you're a father now, so you have to be good to Joanna. Auntie Cornelia said that you should learn how to coax Joanna. Don't be like Tyrone, I hate Tyrone." Abigail wrinkled her nose, played with her fingers and said to Cedric.

"Okay." Hearing Abigail's childish words, Cedric's gloomy face turned gentle.

"Abigail, can you go to the hospital to accompany Joanna tomorrow?"

"Okay, I can help you chase after your wife." Abigail patted her chest like an adult and said.

Her childish action made Cedric and Nacho laugh happily.

After Abigail went upstairs, the smile on Cedric's face disappeared instantly.

Nacho glanced at Cedric indifferently, got up and said, "Think about what you want carefully."

After saying this, Nacho left. Cedric stared at his back with gloomy eyes. Then he closed his eyes and all he thought about was Joanna.

Joanna, could we be together for the rest of our lives?

It was brightly lit in the hospital.

The corridor was so quiet. As if no lives would be there.

When Cedric came out of the elevator, the bodyguard at the door of Joanna's ward immediately saluted him.

"Master."

"How's she today?" Cedric stood outside the ward and looking inside through the slightly-opened door crack.

"She's in the same mood as before. There's not much change."

"I see." Cedric said.

He gently pushed open the door and walked in.

Usually at this time, Joanna had already fallen asleep, so he came to see her at this time every night.

He knew that Joanna didn't want to see him, so he didn't want to appear in front of Joanna. He only wanted to see Joanna's sleeping face every night.

Sitting beside Joanna's bed, Cedric reached out his hand. Just as he was about to touch her face, Joanna, whose eyes were closed, suddenly opened her eyes.

Cedric's hand froze in air.

"You... are awake? Do you feel uncomfortable? Or are you... hungry?" The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Cedric looked at Joanna with embarrassment and said in a hoarse voice.

Joanna glanced at Cedric indifferently and then looked away. Her side face looked inexpressibly cold.

Cedric's back froze, and his face was filled with sadness.

"I should be responsible for Arvin's death. I'm sorry."

Cedric lowered his head dully and apologized.

Joanna's back became stiff. Under the quilt, she clenched her fingers into fists. But she didn't say a word as if she refused to talk to Cedric.

"Joanna, our son is a month old. The day after tomorrow is his birthday. I've booked the best hotel and invited a lot of people. You can leave the hospital tomorrow. After his birthday banquet, let's get married, okay?"

Seeing that Joanna did not speak, Cedric hesitated for a moment and then wrapped his arms around her waist.

Joanna trembled when she was suddenly hugged by Cedric. Her body froze and the expression on her face was very strange.

Because she faced Cedric with her back, Cedric couldn't see her sad expression at the moment.

He whispered in Joanna's ear, "I'm sorry. I don't know what is love. I'm so selfish that I don't want you to be taken away by anyone. I should be responsible for Arvin's death. But I don't regret to force you to stay with me. Joanna, I really... love "Cedric, you don't know what is love at all." After a long time, Joanna turned around and stared at Cedric coldly.

Her eyes were so sharp, as if she hated Cedric so much and wanted to kill him. Cedric's whole body was trembling.

He pursed his lips and said in a hoarse voice, "No... I will try my best to love you. Joanna, I will be good to you. I used to be a jerk, but I won't hurt you again. I'll treat you well. My mother will be happy if we are with each other."

"Shut up. Don't mention madam! You don't deserve to be her son!" Joanna roared at Cedric with excitement.

Cedric's face darkened. He looked at Joanna and finally let go of her body. He whispered, "I will change. Joanna, whether you hate me or not, I will accept it. I want to be with you."

After saying this, he left the ward.

"Joanna, let's go home." Seeing that Joanna finally smiled, Cedric was relieved. He stepped forward and tried to hold Joanna's hand, but Joanna avoided his hand.

Cedric's face froze. After Abigail noticed this, she held Joanna's arm cutely, rubbed her face against Joanna's arm and said, "Joanna, let's go home. Today, the servants made a lot of delicious dishes."

"Okay." Joanna held Abigail's hand and walked forward on her own.

With an upset face, Cedric followed behind them and clenched his fists tightly. On the way back, Cedric's face darkened, while Joanna held Abigail in her arms and kept looking out of the window. The atmosphere in the car was stiff and awkward.

Abigail twisted her body, blinked her beautiful eyes and touched Joanna's breast cunningly.

Joanna was shocked, and she felt hot in her ears, "Abigail..."

"Joanna, your breasts have grown bigger. Do you have a lot of milk?"

Boom!

Abigail's words made Joanna speechless. Her cheeks were hot, but she didn't know how to explain to Abigail.

Recently, she felt a swelling pain in her breasts because she had given birth to the child. But she didn't need to feed the child with her milk, so she thought that she would feel better soon.

"The baby is very cute, and he looks like you so much. Do you want to see him?" Seeing that Cedric had been staring at Joanna's breasts, Abigail said with a smile.

She felt that Cedric liked Joanna's breasts so much.

"No." Joanna's body stiffened. Her face was no more red, and she shook her head indifferently.

Joanna's sudden cold attitude made Cedric's body tense.

He clenched his fists tightly, and his heart sank.

Abigail sensed the strange atmosphere between Cedric and Joanna, she gently pulled Joanna's arm and muttered in a low voice, "Joanna, don't you like the baby?"

Joanna lowered her head, raised her hand and gently touched Abigail's head, but she didn't say anything.

The atmosphere in the car suddenly became extremely strange.

Twenty minutes later, the car arrived at the Xis.
