Chapter 400: Jealous husband
Light music could be heard from outside, and the surrounding was vibrant with too many colours. It wasn’t just a victory banquet but an engagement party. Abrielle wondered how Bernice and the Sumerian prince’s story would unfold. Was it going to be enemies or lovers or was Bernice walking into her own death
A soft smile was on her lips, completely unaware of her brooding husband, who hadn’t gotten over a cat till now.
"Since you love him so much, why don’t you get married to him?" Cedric sneered, something dark like jealousy lingered in his tone. He was informed of how the cat has been glued to Abrielle that it even sleeps next to her
He didn’t even get to share the bed with her every night and a cat was enjoying that privilege.
"Huh," Abrielle was taken unaware. Her brow arched at him. She almost forgot about his obsessive tendencies. This was among the reasons Callista chose Lucian over him. His jealousy made him irrational at times.
Cedric was a very smart strategist but love made him act dumb at times. "If I wanted to wed him would you allow me?" She asked him. She knew the answer but wanted to taunt him
They were walking through the palace’s wide passages towards the banquet hall. Their arms locked together like a real couple which they were slowly turning into.
"Not even if I am dead. You are never getting married to someone else. My ghost will haunt you." His voice drawled. It was dark, giving her goosebumps, but one thing was certain: he meant what he said. Every bit of it.
"Then stop acting like a jealous husband. It doesn’t look good on someone as cold as you." Her words struck a nerve. They arrived at the doors, and the guards bowed, welcoming the royal couple.
