"My body is so dirty. How can I forget about my past? If I continue to be with Cedric, people in Beijing will look down on him."
Thinking of the laughter of those servants, Joanna pinched her palm hard with her fingers.
"Joanna, I asked you to open the door! Do you hear me? Or do you want me to knock the door open?" Seeing that Joanna did not open the door, Cedric became extremely unhappy.
"Sir, here's the key." The housekeeper took the spare key and opened the door.
After opening the door, Cedric went straight in. He scanned the entire room and then saw Joanna, who was huddling up under the computer desk.
Seeing Joanna's pathetic and even painful look, Cedric felt sad in his heart.
He waved his hand and asked the housekeeper to go out. Then he walked directly to Joanna.
"Stand up." He stood in front of Joanna, looked down at her and said in a low voice.
Joanna didn't move, as if she didn't hear what Cedric said.
Seeing Joanna like this, Cedric's eyes turned even colder.
He clenched his fists and tried his best to suppress his anger. With cold eyes, he said, "Joanna, stand up. Do you hear me?" He didn't want to see Joanna's painful, fearful, and even desperate expression.
Joanna shouldn't be like this.
"You're in great pain, aren't you? Do you want to kill me?"
Cedric squatted down and touched Joanna's pale face. He fixes Joanna's empty eyes with a piercing stare.
"Joanna, listen carefully. I'm the b*stard who asked those bodyguards to hurt you. The person you should hate is me. I hurt you. It's my fault. I'm a j*rk. Let me bear your pain."
"Get out." Joanna said with her pale lips, which made Cedric feel that she was very painful.
Hearing Joanna's words, Cedric felt sadder in his uncomfortable heart.
He took a deep breath, clenched his fists and closed his eyes slightly.
"Joanna, if killing me can make you feel better in your heart. I am willing to be killed by you. Remember, you didn't do anything wrong. It is me who hurt you again and again." Cedric hugged Joanna's stiff body and warmed her body with his own temperature.
"It's all my fault. Do you hear me? You didn't do anything wrong."
"Cedric... Please let me... calm down alone, okay?" Joanna looked at Cedric's face and said in a shrilling and painful voice.
She didn't want to see anyone. She only wanted to stay alone. She didn't want to see her own child, Cedric and anyone.
"If... I die, will you feel better?"
Cedric stared at Joanna and said in a painful and deep voice.
Cedric's words made Joanna's heart suddenly tremble.
Her expression was extremely horrible as she clenched her fists. Because of fear and pain, her whole body was trembling.
Her face became pale, and even her breathing became extremely rapid.
"Cedric... why do you have to force me?" She roared at Cedric in a hoarse voice.
Why did Cedric always use this method to force her? Why?
"If I don't force you, you can never forget your past." Looking at Joanna, Cedric said in a deep voice.
Joanna clenched her fists and yelled at Cedric, "Go out and leave me alone, okay?"
She only just wanted to be alone and did not want to think about anything at the moment.
Cedric stared at Joanna with keen eyes. He didn't move but stared at Joanna's eyes for a long time.
