When Cheryl was about to hold Joanna, Cedric's car arrived.
The moment Cheryl saw Cedric's car, her expression was a little strange.
She had never expected that Cedric could find this place.
Cedric... I killed people.1' After seeing Cedric, Joanna said emotionally.
With a frown, Cedric looked at the blood on Joanna's body.
He reached out and gently touched Joanna's hair.
Joanna was trembling all over, just like
a parkinson's sufferer.
Cedric gently held Joanna in his arms. He did not care if the blood would stain his clothes.
He said to Joanna softly, "It's okay. I'm here. Don't be afraid."
"Cedric, take Joanna to the hospital first." Nacho got out of the car and said blandly.
His assistant found that Joanna was here, so he came with Cedric.
When Cheryl saw Nacho, her face darkened.
She had schemed well. Even if Cedric could come to save Joanna, it would be too late.
Because Joanna would have been raped when Cedric and Nacho found her. But she didn't expect that Joanna would kill those gangsters to protect herself.
Thinking of this, Cheryl turned unhappy and annoyed.
"Nacho, I'll leave with Joanna first." Cedric turned around and said to Nacho.
Hearing this, Nacho nodded faintly.
He glanced at the wooden house and asked Paul to deal with those gangsters in the house.
"Cheryl, do you know what happened?" Nacho walked to Cheryl when his assistants were cleaning the house. Looking at Cheryl's dirty face, he asked causally.
Being questioned by Nacho like this, Cheryl felt that her whole back was stiff.
She shook her head awkwardly and said with fear, "I don't know. I was drinking at the bar, then Joanna wanted to take me to rest in a hotel. But we got on an illegal taxi."
"I don't think it's an illegal taxi." Nacho smiled at Cheryl.
Nacho's words made Cheryl's body slightly stiff.
She licked her lips and said awkwardly, "Why? Since the driver wanted to rape me and Joanna, it must be an illegal taxi."
"I think this is a conspiracy, but I don't know who schemed this."
Nacho stared at Cheryl with his horrible eyes, which made Cheryl's whole body tighten. Cheryl was nervous, but she said with an embarrassed smile, "How could it be a conspiracy? If someone really schemed this, it is really... horrible."
"I will definitely find out about it. Cedric loves Joanna, and she is Kerr's mother. I will not let her be bullied."
Cheryl felt that Nacho was saying these words to her. Her body froze and she felt so nervous.
On the way back, Cheryl had been clenching her fists. She was afraid that she would expose herself and be discovered by Nacho.
Nacho was a thoughtful man. To Cheryl, Nacho was really hard to deal with.
Nacho sat in the car with his hands crossed on his laps, and his eyes looked extremely cold and horrible at the moment.
Obviously, someone had schemed this matter.
However, could it be Cheryl?
Did she really dare do such a ruthless thing? Or was there someone behind her to be her adviser?
"Joanna, what's wrong with you?"
Cedric brought Joanna back to the Xis. The housekeeper immediately exclaimed when he saw the blood on Joanna's body and her expression.
Joanna's mood was greatly affected, and she was trembling all the way. After hearing the housekeeper's words, she leaned against Cedric's arms with a pale face. "Ask Aneirin to here right away." Seeing that Joanna was in a trance with a frightened face, Cedric held her with concern and ordered the housekeeper.
The housekeeper did not dare ask further when he saw Cedric's serious face. It was obvious that Joanna had encountered something bad.
Cedric took Joanna upstairs to take a bath and washed off all the blood on her body.
When Cedric touched Joanna's body, she was very excited.
Seeing Joanna like this, Cedric immediately touched her face and said, "Joanna, look at me. I'm Cedric. Don't be afraid."
Joanna's anxious mood eased a lot after hearing Cedric's name. She looked at Cedric's face in a daze and grabbed his arms. Because she was so nervous and frightened, her long nails scratched his arms.
However, Cedric didn't mind it at all. He touched Joanna's pale face and said softly, "Don't be afraid. I'm here. No one dares bully you."
Seeing that Joanna slightly closed her eyes as if she was very sleepy, Cedric sighed, gently touched her forehead and held her in his arms.
"If you're tired, sleep in my arms. I'll accompany you."
Cedric's voice was low and pleasant, like a lullaby. Soon, Joanna closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Hearing Joanna's steady breathing, Cedric let out a sigh of relief.
He picked up Joanna and put her on the bed. After coming out of the bedroom, the gentleness on his face disappeared instantly and was replaced by coldness.
Looking at the horrible expression on Cedric's face, Aneirin shrank his neck and asked, "What's going on? Why does Joanna look so strange? What happened today?"
Cedric's abnormal expression and Joanna's frightened face made Aneirin feel very strange.
Cedric sat on the sofa coldly. He said without any emotions on his cold face, "Somebody wants to ruin Joanna."
"RuinJoanna?" Hearing it, Aneirin said with a terrified expression.
"Joanna was almost raped today. If she didn't hack those people, when Nacho and I went there, she would have..."
When Cedric thought that Joanna mght have be dead when they found her, his whole body was trembling.
He clenched his fists so hard that his whole body couldn't stop trembling.
"Have you offended anyone recently?" Aneirin's face darkened as he looked at Cedric and said.
Everyone knew that Joanna was Cedric's woman, but someone actually dared hurt Joanna. Aneirin really didn't know whether the one who wanted to hurt Joanna was powerful or stupid.
"Ask a group of bodyguards to protect Joanna. I don't want her to get hurt again."
Cedric clenched his fists and said to Aneirin coldly.
Looking at Cedric like this, Aneirin nodded, "I see. I'll go back to handle it later. Have you found any clues about this matter?"
"I won't let go of anyone who hurt Joanna."
Cedric stood up, said this coldly, and then went back to his bedroom.
Aneirin touched his chin and looked at Cedric's back thoughtfully.
Since someone wanted to kill Joanna, he must hate Joanna or Cedric so much.
