Cedric took Joanna and sat on the sofa. Looking at Kerr holding the feeding bottle and sucking with satisfaction, Cedric's handsome face was full of tenderness.
He reached out his fingers, touched Kerr's face gently and said to Joanna with a smile, "Our son is really cute."
He had never liked children in the past, except Abigail. Later, after he fell in love with Joanna and had this child, he felt that he had changed a lot.
Looking at the gentle expression on Cedric's face, Joanna thought of the cold and stubborn man he used to be. She felt a little surprised.
Cedric was no longer impetuous, he had become really gentle.
Earl stood aside and stared at them.
He sneered, and his eyes were cold.
"Cedric, the housekeeper said that you went out with Kerr. It turns out that you are with Joanna."
When Cedric took Joanna back to the Xis, he saw Cheryl sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Cheryl was wearing a red dress, which set off her fair skin and beautiful face.
She looked at Cedric with her big and watery eyes, and her expression was a little flirtatious. When Joanna saw Cheryl, her back became a little stiff unconsciously.
She pursed her lips and looked at Cheryl quietly.
"Why are you here?" Cedric frowned and asked coldly.
Cheryl noticed that Cedric's voice suddenly became cold. She whispered, "I roasted some corn cake and wanted to let you have a taste. By the way, I want to see Kerr. I haven't seen him for a few days."
With these words, Cheryl reached out her hand and tried to take Kerr from Joanna's arms, but Cedric stopped her.
"Cedric?" Cheryl's awkward face suddenly became unhappy when Cedric didn't allow her to touch Kerr.
"In the future, Joanna will come here to take care of Kerr. I will held a news conference next month and tell everyone that I'll marry Joanna."
Marry?
What was Cedric talking about?
Did he want to marry Joanna?
Cheryl's heart suddenly trembled. She bit her lips and stared at Cedric. In a hoarse voice, she said, "Cedric, are you kidding?"
Cedric actually wanted to marry Joanna. But Joanna was not qualified to marry Cedric at all!
"Sorry, you'll find a better man. I'm not suitable for you." Cedric knew that Cheryl liked him. Since Joanna had forgiven him, he naturally did not want Joanna to misunderstand his relationship with Cheryl. "So... why did you kiss me that night?"
Cheryl clenched her fists. She looked at Cedric with sadness and pain on her beautiful face.
That night? Joanna's heart trembled when she heard it.
Did Cedric have sex with Cheryl?
"I was drunk that night." Cedric glanced at Cheryl and said coldly.
"But... you kissed me! You even touched my body. Cedric, I thought you wanted to start a relationship with me."
Cheryl looked at Cedric in disbelief.
"Joanna, I... just kissed her. I didn't... have sex with her." Cedric was worried that Joanna would misunderstand him, so he looked at Joanna nervously and explained.
Joanna glanced at Cedric. When she saw him staring at her nervously, Joanna took a breath blandly and said, "I see."
She knew that Cedric kissed Cheryl and touched Cheryl's body. Although she felt a little uncomfortable, she could forgive Cedric.
Cedric used to have a lot of mistresses, and she... also used to have sex with another man. She only wanted to be with Cedric at this moment.
"Cheryl, you can still be the leading lady of the next TV series. Don't worry, I will compensate you." Seeing that Joanna was not angry, Cedric let out a sigh of relief.
He looked at Cheryl and said in a deep voice. Cheryl covered her mouth. Her big and beautiful eyes were full of tears. She roared at Cedric and then ran out.
"Cedric, how can you treat me like this?"
"Cheryl!" Looking at Cheryl's back, Joanna was so worried that she wanted to chase after Cheryl, but Cedric grabbed her hand.
Cedric stared at Joanna and shook his head indifferently, "Let her go. I feel sorry for her. I've told her many times that I don't love her. I just regard her as one of your friend."
"Cedric, are you really... going to marry me?" Joanna knew that Cedric did nothing wrong to treat Cheryl so indifferently.
If Cedric was indecisive, Cheryl would be hurt more.
"You don't want to marry me?" Hearing Joanna's words, Cedric's handsome face darkened.
Joanna lowered her head and clenched her fists nervously. She said in a dull voice, "I... just feel that I am not qualified to be your wife."
Joanna had not been completely relieved of what had happened to her in the past.
She felt that she really didn't be qualified to stand by Cedric's side.
"I'm the one who are not qualified. Joanna, are you willing to give me the chance to spend the rest of my life with you?" Cedric said hoarsely as he held Joanna's hand tightly.
"I... was drunk at that time. But after all, it's your fault. How can you have sex with other women? I said that you are not allowed to have sex with women, you're mine."
"Blithe, I've told you that we are just sex partners. Don't say that you love me. It will make you hypocritical." Blithe couldn't utter a word when he heard Earl's words.
He loved Earl. But it was so ridiculous that he couldn't show it.
"We just need to enjoy the sex. For us, we don't need love."
After saying that, Earl untied Blithe's belt.
Soon, they begun to have sex on the carpet.
A few hours later, Blithe kissed Earl's neck with satisfaction and said, "Earl, if... I don't have sex with other women for you, will you do that for me?"
"What do you think?" Earl glanced at Blithe's penis and obviously did not believe Blithe's words.
Blithe was the leader of a group of gangsters. He took over the Black Dragon Gang when he was 15 years old, and there were many women around him. Earl did not believe that Blithe's words at all.
"I can do that." Blithe looked at Earl firmly.
In fact, a few days ago, he was annoyed and wanted to vent his anger by sex. He clearly knew that Earl would come to find her, but he deliberately had sex with those women. He wanted to see if Earl would be sad.
However, Earl was neither sad nor jealous at all.
Earl's reaction made Blithe so sad.
"Whatever." Earl did not take Blithe's words seriously at all.
He took the cigarette and lit it. Then he slowly took a breath and said to Blithe, "Cedric is going to marry Joanna."
"What are you going to do?" Blithe looked at Earl and quietly waited for Earl's answer.
"Do you think I'll let Joanna and Cedric get married?
I really want to ruin their happiness now."
Earl stared at the cigarette butts in his hand. Looking at the light, his eyes were filled with coldness and malice.
"So, what do you want to do? No matter what you want to do, I will help you." Blithe looked at Earl and whispered.
Blithe would do whatever Earl wanted him to do, even he would die.
"Joanna, can you... have a drink with me in the bar?" Joanna received a call from Cheryl at two o'clock in the afternoon.
