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.
