Her tone echoed the strict senior she’d once been.

Aydan finally cooled down, chest heaving as he glared at Cedrick.

“Go back,” Lucille ordered firmly.

Aydan didn’t budge. “I’ll stand over there. Call me if anything happens.”

Lucille signaled Linda to pull him away.

Still gripping Cedrick’s sleeve from intervening, Lucille yanked her hand back the moment Aydan retreated.

Cedrick scoffed. “What?

Afraid he’ll misunderstand us?”

“Not everyone thinks like you–disgusting!” Lucille’s face iced over.

“Disgusting?” Cedrick barked a laugh. “I flew thousands of miles to find you, and that’s what I get?

He loses a speck of skin and you’re heartbroken, while I-”

Cedrick choked back the words: I nearly died sick–did you even ask? Instead, he pointed at Aydan in the distance, trembling with rage.

“Cedrick.” Lucille’s voice grew colder. “If you flew to Magraica just because I blocked you on WhatsApp-

because you couldn’t pick fights with me online–then turn around and leave.”

“I didn’t come to fight!” Cedrick’s eyes blazed. “I’m taking you home!

Come with me!”

He reached for her arm.

Lucille stood rooted. “Cedrick, I’m never going back.”

Her calm was unnerving–as if nothing had ever happened between them.

As if they were strangers, devoid of love or hate.

Cedrick’s pupils dilated. Shock ignited into wildfire. “Do you even hear yourself?”

Do you think that just because I came to find you, you can keep acting spoiled?

The more I indulge you, the more you push your luck!

If divorcing him counts as being spoiled, then so be it.

Say what you will, Cedrick, I’ve been very happy these days, happier than any day in the past twenty years. Please let me go, and let yourself go too.

Go off with your Maricela and be happy together!

Cedrick’s face turned from white to red, then from red to green. Suddenly, he pointed at Aydan and shouted fiercely, “Happy?

You’ve only known this shameless pretty boy for a few days?

And it surpasses the happiness of the past twenty years?

Where did you put my money?

Without me giving you money, could you be this happy?

And where did you put grandma?

Is grandma’s kindness to you not as good as this man’s?”

Lucille looked at him calmly, “Cedrick, not everyone only thinks about romantic matters!

Besides, grandma is fine!

You don’t need to worry about grandma and me, you outsider!”

“Outsider?”

Cedrick retorted, “Am I an outsider?”

“Otherwise?

Do you

have the surname Jian?”
