Chapter 25: Challenge him
Waking up and being harassed by Cedric was the perfect way Abrielle could start a bad day. As Cedric said, no maid directly attended to her; a little bit of water was sent to her to use to wash up, and her breakfast was the hardest bread she had had in her life with plain soup.
She was left to cater for herself. Not that it was very difficult, but dry bread and soup, that man was after her life. She could barely eat anything but this level of punishment was better than whips or death.
Cedric was a short circuit tempered.... ’ Ahhhh, this is frustrating.’ Abrielle wanted to scream but she could not. She thought her punishment was going to be just a day but Cedric got to be kidding with her.
She couldn’t stand another day eating just dry bread and soup. The soup was disgusting. Tears formed in her eyes as her hatred for Cedric got renewed. She could not believe she was even craving his touch. He was a monster.
"At this rate, I might die from malnutrition." She mumbled looking at her breakfast. The same dry bread and soup she was given thrice yesterday. Even the maids don’t eat this.
She had been so busy she forgot about Sarah. Yesterday, after having this disgusting excuse of food in the morning, she had sought out Cedric to maybe apologize, but he refused to see her. Then she thought maybe it was for a day, but no, she had underestimated the devil.
The chair screeched against the floor as she got on her feet, leaving the mini table she had been using to have her meals indoors. "This is enough. Whether he likes it or not, he will have to see my face." She declared then stormed for the door to find her husband.
The door was abruptly pushed open, startling the guard at the door. Soon, the ginger-headed princess burst out of the room, storming away. He was dumbfounded at first but followed after the princess he was assigned to look after.
Abrielle had no idea exactly where Cedric was or his bedroom here but her instincts told her he was on the deck. Since she was the one who solely attended to herself. Her outfit was minimalistic and easy to move in.
