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.
