So, that’s how he sees it all this while. He thinks that he’s going to die and feels guilty for being a burden

to me.

Letting out a sigh, Gwendolyn reached out to comfort him.

“Ceddy, listen to me-”

For the second time, Cedrick pushed her hand away and turned his back to her. Soft sniffles soon accompanied his trembling shoulders.

Unable to contain his emotions anymore, he came to a decisive decision. “I know that he’s your first love and both of you have history. If you… still love him and are firm in choosing him, I will not stand in your way!”

With that, he headed back upstairs without looking back.

The outburst left Gwendolyn shocked and furious at the same time.

Upon regaining her senses, she ran after him. “Cedrick, what the hell are you talking about? Did hit your head somewhere?”

Cedrick quickened his pace and flew to the third floor like the wind. He then slammed the door before locking it from the inside.

As Gwendolyn was right behind him, she managed to stop in the nick of time. Otherwise, her head would’ve been at the receiving end of the closing door.

The sight of the tightly shut entrance caused her blood to boil.

“What’s wrong with you, Cedrick? How dare you slam the door in my face? What are you throwing a tantrum for? What’s so difficult about hearing my explanation? Open the door right now!”

Two minutes later, there was still no indication that the door was going to open anytime

soon.

As it was already late and Gwendolyn had busied herself the entire day, exhaustion began to take its toll on her.

Coming home to be at the receiving end of Cedrick’s temper drained the very last of her patience.
