Chapter 140: I Love You, Idiot
Ch-139
"Where is brother, Sister-in-law?" he asked with a shocked face. Was it even possible for his brother to leave his sister-in-law for a second?
"What do you mean?" Eleanor asked.
"I mean... I never saw my brother acting like a sticky gum with anyone apart from Aunt Emerson. You are the first person after Aunt Emerson, he is acting like an annoying sticky gum," he said.
"Hmm... Maybe. I won’t be surprised... if he wants to get a surgery where we both can be bound together for the rest of our life without getting separated," Eleanor said.
"But... despite how crazy he is... he loves me a lot," she said as a smile crept on her face.
"I am seeing his old self today with you. Don’t let him lose it again, Sister-in-law," Raymund said.
"Means?" she asked.
"We all know that... Cedric loved someone but never knew who the woman was. One day... he came to us saying that he lost her completely. From then he was never his real self. He became a drinker and a soulless person. He tried to kill himself but it took a lot for us to get him back to his old self. But we couldn’t... but he tried to distract himself after a few days. He became cold, heartless and the epitome of all negative emotions.
"But... again one day he came to us saying he might have a chance. And then he became busy till we saw the news online," Raymund said.
"He attempted suicide?" Eleanor asked. Her mind was struck only on the line. She never knew this happened to him. Or didn’t know he loved her beyond death. Her eyes watered at the thought of Cedric lying in the pool of blood for her. A lone tear escaped from her eye.
"Sister-in-law, don’t cry. If no brother would think I did something," Raymund begged. Eleanor placed her hand on her face to feel the wetness of her tears. She realized she was crying. She wiped her eyes.
