Burning Love Cute Husband and His Little Wife

Chapter 287

287 Completely Out of Control

Isabella noticed Cedric’s actions and was stunned. Then, she giggled and wiped her face with a napkin. “I’m sorry. I know what etiquette is needed to enjoy western food. There are so many rules. I should be as elegant as you, but I didn’t learn it because I rarely had western food. I have never participated in formal parties or anything like that. Cedric, don’t laugh at me.”

Cedric paused. “We’re at home, not outside. Don’t mind. You look fine.”

After thinking for a while, Cedric took off his napkin and picked up the steak on his plate with chopsticks. “Look, you can eat whatever you want at ease. The rules are set by humans. If you feel uncomfortable, throw it away.”

Isabella looked at Cedric in surprise, and then she was touched by what he did. “Cedric, you are... Cedric, I like you!”

After lunch, Isabella washed the dishes.

Cedric was watering his beloved orchids on the balcony. It was his habit to raise good-looking plants.

Cedric looked at everything in front of him and felt happy.

They cooked together and ate together. While Isabella cleaned up the dishes, Cedric took care of the plants.

It was very ordinary, but it made one feel warm.

.....

This was probably the happiness of marriage.

“Isabella, that’s enough. Let’s take a short rest and go out for a walk.”

Cedric was a little excited. He wanted to spend as much time with Isabella as possible so that he could show his love for her in a gentle and subtle way.

“Isabella?”

Isabella did not respond, so Cedric walked into the living room.

Isabella had finished washing the dishes and was sleeping on the sofa.

The apron on Isabella was half-untied, and her face was leaning against the back of the sofa. She was not in a very comfortable position, but she fell asleep...

Cedric thought about it and went to the room to get a thin blanket.

Cedric blamed himself for his negligence. Last night, Isabella didn’t sleep until three in the morning. Moreover, she fell asleep so sadly. This morning, Cedric woke her up at eight o’clock. Just now, she was patient enough to cook with him...

Isabella must be tired.

Cedric thought, ‘Silly girl, even if you were tired, you forced yourself to deal with me without rest.

You treat me as strangers.’

Isabella was too unfamiliar with Cedric and showed no intimacy at all.

Cedric reached out and carefully took off the apron on Isabella. He held her head. Accidentally, the belt of the apron brushed her earlobe.

Afraid of waking Isabella up, Cedric hurriedly reached out and held her ear.

The ribbon didn’t wake Isabella up, but the soft touch from her ears made Cedric excited.

Cedric stared at Isabella’s red ears, which were so small and soft.

Cedric longed to kiss Isabella or bite her ears lightly in his mouth. He wanted to lean over and say something romantic to her, which would make her blush or laugh.

Cedric’s gaze slowly moved from Isabella’s earlobe to her beautiful face.

Cedric cleared his throat.

Cedric licked his lips as hard as she could as if he had encountered a clear spring after a long drought.

Cedric rubbed his head and smiled bitterly when he saw he had an erection.

Cedric felt disappointed with himself.

Cedric had many “girlfriends”, and he had always had a good impression of things about lust. Although he was a person with self-control, he never suppressed his desires.

But now, Cedric was suppressing his emotions. While silently watching Isabella, he held back his impulse.

Cedric wanted to make his relationship with Isabella purer and more beautiful, so she would accept him without any scruples.

Cedric didn’t want to scare Isabella, in case she would think that he was just treating her as a sex partner.

For such a simple and inexperienced girl as Isabella, pure love was more attractive.

Cedric took a few deep breaths and covered Isabella with the blanket.

Isabella felt the weight on her and opened her eyes.

Then, Isabella jumped up from the sofa and rubbed her eyes. “Sorry, I was a little confused just now, so I fell asleep...”

“Why did you apologize?”

Cedric shrugged. “If you want to sleep, then sleep. You’re very tired. It’s nothing wrong to sleep for a while. You don’t have to be so reserved in front of me. This is a reasonable and proper request.”

“No...”

Isabella said uncomfortably. “You said you were going out to meet a friend and take me to buy clothes. I don’t want to waste your time.”

“No, you don’t.”

Cedric stretched lazily and walked to his room. “I’m going to rest for an hour too. It’s a good habit to take a nap. Let’s meet later. I wish you a good dream.”

Isabella looked at Cedric’s lazy back and understood that he just did not want her to be uncomfortable. She could not help but praise, “Cedric is a considerate and gentle person. Jane will be happy. What should I do? I can’t wait to introduce them to each other. Cedric, don’t fall in love with others at the blind date tomorrow...”

In the underground workshop of the Wilson Manor, Joseph’s subordinates sorted out the surveillance videos they had found. Joseph stared intently at every scene aside.

“Mr. Joseph, you haven’t eaten since last night.”

“It’s already past 2 o’clock. Eat something,” said William as he pushed a small dining cart over.

“No need.”

Joseph looked terrible. He had never been in such a state.

“Miss Isabella is so smart. She will be fine.”

William comforted Joseph, “Miss Isabella just doesn’t have her phone with her, and she doesn’t want to come back to see us. Nothing will happen to her.”

“Why doesn’t Isabella want to come back to see us?”

Joseph suddenly became a little excited. “Even if she is safe now, she was almost bullied by a few hooligans. It was true that she was almost taken away by traffickers! She has no support and can’t go back to the Smith’s. After experiencing such danger, where can she get comfort?”

Joseph pounded the table with his hand. “I have contacted Isabella’s school, her family, her good friends, and even Lukas, but there is no news at all. Even if what I did yesterday was blameful, why didn’t she give me a chance to explain? Is she happy to leave just like and make me worry?”

William lowered his head, not knowing how to answer Joseph.

Joseph had changed.

William felt that although Joseph had a good impression of Isabella, Joseph was a little indifferent to her. Since Stella returned, Joseph might end his relationship with Isabella directly.

After all, Joseph and Stella grew up together. Joseph was obsessed with Stella, but he always bullied Isabella willfully.

Unexpectedly...

William didn’t expect that Isabella’s departure would cause the usually cold and aloof Joseph to be in such a sorry state. Joseph was so terrified and helpless...

William still remembered that when Gerry was having lunch at his place at noon, Gerry said in a daze, “Mr. Joseph and Miss Isabella match each other.”

At that time, William was puzzled and asked Gerry about it. Gerry said that when Joseph faced the one who kidnapped Stella and might kill her in the United States, Joseph completely remained calm and cold. His mind was clear.

However, when facing a group of people who might bully Isabella, Joseph lost control.

Joseph completely lost his mind...
