The Fifth Year of Marriage to Him novel Chapter 218

Chapter 218

788 Woochiers

Damn it! Off again!

Anger flared–then he remembered. Lucille was abroad now. He didn’t even have her overseas number.

He went back to WhatsApp and made a voice call.

Lucille saw his incoming voice call just as she was about to have lunch with Meredith. Seeing it was Cedrick calling, she didn’t answer.

But he kept calling.

Whether Lucille rejected the call or just ignored it, he didn’t stop.

Even Meredith noticed.

“Professor, I need to take this call. You go ahead.”

Meredith understood, smiled, and went ahead.

Lucille turned around and answered the phone, “Cedrick, what’s gotten into you?”

Cedrick’s voice came through, hoarse and raspy, “Lucille… Lucille…”

“What do you

want? Just

say

it!”

“Lucille, I don’t feel well… I’m sick…” His voice was not only hoarse but also slurred, as if he wasn’t fully conscious.

“Cedrick, if there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up. Your discomfort has nothing to do with me.”

“Lucille, Lucille, don’t… I’m really sick. I’m ill.”

Lucille found it utterly ridiculous, “You’re sick?

You’re sick and you call me?

Cedrick, are you out of your mind?”

“I want water… My head hurts… I can’t get up…”

It was like talking to a brick wall!

He wasn’t listening to a word she said!

But she understood perfectly well: in his delirious state, he remembered her, Mrs. Maynard. “Cedrick, you just want someone to wait on you, don’t you?”

Chapter 218

“Lucille, I’m really suffering…”

“If you’re suffering, call your Maricela!

She knows the passcode to your place anyway. Let her take care of you!”

Isn’t she your true love?

But Cedrick rasped, “Maricela ?

How could I call Maricela… I can’t bother her…”

Lucille hung up directly.

Cedrick was something else. They were oceans apart, and she had clearly moved on, long since stopped hurting. Yet now he was pissing her off again.

So Maricela was the little princess who couldn’t be bothered?

And she was just the old maid who waited on people?

“Lucille!”

Aydan caught up from behind. Seeing her expression, he asked with a smile, “What’s wrong?

Who made our Lucille angry?”

Lucille shook her head with a smile, “Nothing. Let’s go eat.”

“Alright!

Eating is the top priority!”
