Chapter 236: Look perfect together
Cedric smiled, seeing the sight before him; how many times does he need to see it to know the truth? "You should stop him," Cedric heard Elias say from beside him, genuinely concerned.
"Why should I? They look perfect together." He replied, his hold on the rose tightened.
Cedric glanced at the rose, what was he going to do with it? He didn’t want to approach her. He did not know if he would be able to keep the rage boiling in him at bay if he did.
"She never deserved it, give it to Callista. The poor girl is all alone without a single rose." The voice that always bothered him found a very convenient time to chime in his head. Cedric glanced at Callista. Their gaze met; he shook his head, changing his mind.
He rather kept the rose to himself, Alfonso left Abrielle after accomplishing his task. Cedric wondered why Alfonso didn’t kiss Abrielle at once, affirming all the rumours.
"Let’s head back, I am exhausted." Cedric sighed, sounding very drained. Elias sensed something about Cedric, one that he had never noticed before.
He remembered how happy the prince seemed earlier during the match. His first guess was the embroidered handkerchief tied on Cedric’s arm. Now, he seemed to have reverted back to his old self.
Cedric left silently; many didn’t seem to notice him because they were all caught up with other interesting matters to pay attention to the first prince that wasn’t favoured by the public.
Nevertheless, it didn’t skip Rebecca’s attention. She saw it all. She was scared for Abrielle, knowing the kind of person Cedric was. She just didn’t understand why that annoying Alfonso decided to cause Abrielle this much trouble.
