Cedric .

Cedric chuckled .

Why are you calling ! Is there something wrong Yes Stenna hesitated , unsure of how to continue Cedrics tone shifted , sensing her hesitation .

Did Josiah do something to your No Sienna closed her eyes and took a deep breath , You and Reyna .

Are you still together ? Deep down , she hoped they had broken up , and that would be the end of it Cedrics s answer was straightforward .

Yeah , we are .noveldrama

He sounded confined .

But why do you want to know , Stenna ! Sienna opened her mouth , hesitated for a long time , and then blurted out , Cedric , you and Reyna cant keep this going Why not ? Cedric asked , taken aback .

Sienna wasnt the type to meddle in others affairs .

He wondered , Do you know something I dont ? Yeah Since she had already started , there was no turning back She had no idea how serious Cedric and Reynas relationship had become or how much he really liked her .

But Reyna wasnt good enough for him Sometimes it was better to cut ties than to drag out the suffering .

She said .

Cedric .

Im going to send you a photo I just took .

When you see it , youll understand .

Okay , Cedric replied , puzzled .

The call ended , and he immediately received a WhatsApp notification .

He opened it and saw the photo that Sienna had just taken .

Reyna was hugging Jamie with her arms around his neck , standing on tiptoe to kiss him .

Cedric sneered ; he figured out what was going on It was only afternoon , but Cedric was already in no mood to work .

He gave his assistant a few quick instructions, then headed out of the office , and drove home The Brawne family was bustling with activity as they prepared to welcome the Fischer family for dinner .

This was their first time hosting them , and Xenia was taking it very seriously .

Evan returned home for a bit to make a copy of some documents in the study .

As he went downstairs , he could hear his wifes voice booming .

Hows the stew coming along ? And why hasnt the carpet been changed yet ? Didnt I tell you to switch it to the beige one , Hilda ? Xenia turned around and saw her husband .

Evan smiled reassuringly and said , No need to be so nervous .

Its just a casual dinner How can I not be nervous ? Xenia laughed , her exhaustion masked by the joy in her eyes .

Think about all the girls weve introduced to Cedric recently .

Its not easy to find someone hes willing to get to know better ….

True Evan nodded with a smile .

He couldnt bring himself to mention that Reyna bore a slight resemblance to Sienna , which was probably why has son was willing to give her a chance .

Its all good now .

Xenia was quite satisfied with Reynas family background .

I just hope they hit it off and get married in a year or two Yeah Evan kept nodding and smiling You ! Xenia shot a glare at her husband .

All you ever say is yeah : Dont you have anything else to add ? 1 would ve happened to our son If I had left in all to you , I cant imagine what She went on .

Thank goodness I took some measures .

Otherwise , Cedric would have been messed up by Sienna ..

Mom called Cedric Both Xenia and Evan looked up at the same time .

Cedric, why are you back Xenia panicked .

They were so busy talking that they didnt notice when their son came in .

How much had he overlicand 11:55 PM ₫ ₫ Chapter 270 Cedrics eyes flashed with intensity .

A faint anger shadowed his usually calm face .

Mom , what did you do back then ? Son… Xenia felt a knot in her stomach .

She quickly grasped Cedrics arm .

Let me explain .

Okay Codric replied , his gaze fixed on her .

Timm listening Cedric … Xenias voice trembled with anxiety .

What could she say ! She never imagined that past decisions would resurface because of her momentary pride Say something .

Are you going to stay silent ? Cedric pursed his lip , struggling to hold back his anger .

What exactly did you do to Sienna ? He had always thought he and Sienna had broken up because of Josiahs interference .

Could it be .

Cedrics eyes gradually darkened .

Did Sienna and I break up not because of Josiah Cedne Xenia was at a loss for words ; the truth was far messier than he could imagine .

What happened ! Tell me .

Cedric demanded , remembering how Sienna had cried .

His heart ached all over again Thinking back to that day when he flew from Lockage to Flirty , he remembered Siennas joy at seeing him .

It felt like she was about to agree to be with him .

But then , she changed .

Something was off .

Could it be that … he murmured .

Xenia didnt say anything , and Cedric began to guess .

Sienna didnt want to , and you and Josiah worked together to force her or set her up If that was the case , he had been a real jerk .

Xenia shook her head vigorously .

No , I didnt collude with Mr.

Flynn , I found someone him from Flic Flirty , but I dont know why Sienna ended up with Humph She still didnt grasp her mistake and sneered , If you ask me , shes just shameless , juggling you and Josiah at the same time … Mom ! Cedric roared , his face pale , veins bulging on his forehead .

He looked at his mother with sadness and disappointment , shaking his head .

Stop it just stop .

h his heart , I cant believe you actually … A sudden wave of pain shot through his be His mother had found someone to harm the girl he loved .

How scared and desperate Sienna must have been back then .

No Xenia shook her head and denied it flatly .

I just asked that person to frighten her ….

Enough , Cedric said , utterly disappointed , his eyes bloodshot .

Mom , do you love me ? Cedric ..

Xenias heart skipped a beat .

Of course , I do- No.

Cedric shook his head with a sardonic smile .

You destroyed my love with your own hands , Cant you see ? Sienna is the first person I have ever loved in my twenty five years Xenias heart sank .

She was shocked and angry , unable to accept such an accusation .

I only did it for your own good .

A woman like Sienna isnt worthy of you Cedric was taken aback for a moment and then suddenly burst into laughter .

He couldnt stop for a while .

Xenia and Evan exchanged worried glances , Cedric … they called .

Cedric stopped laughing and raised his eyebrows with a sarcastic look .

So , Sienna isnt good enough for me , and instead , you chose someone like Reynal ו .
