Chapter 190 - Wedding Villa (1/2)

Ch-189

Present-day…

Cedric closed his eyes feeling irritated. He couldn't understand why Eleanor can't understand him. He was doing so much for her and their future. Can't she just tell him she was pregnant? He wanted to give her everything but if not for the circumstances he wouldn't have done these things.

Finally, being annoyed he lifted her in a bridal carry. Cedric placed her in his car despite her struggles. Along with her, he entered the car and sat there. He called the driver and asked him to start the car.

”Cedric, stop! I need to leave!” Eleanor yell. But Cedric just smirked at her and looked at the driver. The driver started driving. Eleanor punched his chest with her small fist, she scratched his hands, neck and also she bit his hands till they could see a watch on his hands. But Cedric said nothing. He let her do everything she wanted till she was tired.

Eleanor was so tired but she didn't give up. She continued to hit him and torture him. When she was tired she moved away from his lap and sat in a corner as she curled into a ball. She buried her face in between her knees and started crying without making a noise. No sobs came from her throat or cries. Silent tears cascaded from her eyes seeping into her pants.

And finally, she fell asleep without her knowledge. Cedric could feel his heart breaking into pieces as he stared at her uncomfortable position. Back in those days, she found her home, peace, solace, love, family, and every positive emotion in his arms. Now she couldn't even bear his touch. Let's not talk about his touch his presence itself was toxic to her. She doesn't even want to think about him or hear his name.

Was he that bad?

Was he acting like a demon?

Cedric doesn't know what to say or what to do. He just hoped the woman whom he assigned would get the job done as soon as possible and would give him information. Then everything would go smoothly.

Nathaira has this bad habit. She always makes friends with the enemies of her enemy. She follows the golden rule that an enemies enemy is a friend.

And she always followed that. This was the reason he laid a trap on her. Ms. Addison was none other than one of his trusted people. Her real name was Marley Piper. She was one of his people from underground. Cedric trusted her like anything. And he picked her personally for this mission and she never did any kind of mission with the outside world. People who knew her were very few. So… Cedric was relieved.

If she gets a single clue that could lead them to Nathaira's plan. But they didn't even get a single clue. He needs to hasten up things but he couldn't do it. All he could do was wait and the fucking waiting!

He was brought out of his thoughts when the car stopped in front of the villa that Regan brought it for their wedding. He doesn't want to go to his apartment as he felt it was stained by Nathaira's presence. Cedric already got it ready according to Eleanor's taste.

`He wanted to watch Eleanor's expression at the remodeling of the house but she was asleep. He wondered if she would be surprised or not. But sigh…

Watching her sleepy face, he felt bliss. He just wanted everything to be cleared and start a happy life with her and their baby.

”I promise you that… I will never take this kind of decision whatever the situation after this issue is cleared,” Cedric said to the sleeping Eleanor.

He carried her to their bedroom and laid her on the bed. He brushed off her hair strands to the side and tucked them behind her ear. Seeing her sleepy face, he smiled. He heard somewhere that pregnant women tend to sleep more than usual. And here his wife was sleeping like a pig.

[Hey… she isn't our wife.] his innerself.

[She will be soon. She is stuck with us.] Cedric said to him and smirked.

For the first time, his innerself agreed with him.

He pecked her forehead before tucking her under the blanket. When he was about to leave, he realized something. Removing his shoes he walked towards her. Seeing his shoes were still on, he removed them and joined her on the bed. He pulled her into his arms and slept along with her.

Eleanor was feeling all jittery because even though she was asleep she felt like she was flying in the air and then sinking into something soft. After that, she felt that the chains which were cuffed to her legs were removed. She curled herself into a ball. Just then she felt a thin layer of warmth surrounding her. But again… after a few seconds, a warm teddy bear hugged her. She thought it might be her Mr.Cuddles and snuggled closer to it before dropping into a deep slumber.
