The Fifth Year of Marriage to Him novel Chapter 268

Chapter 268

Cedrick was so angry he looked ready to get physical, but he controlled himself, saying through gritted teeth, “Let me tell you something…”

“You don’t need to tell me.”

Robert had no interest in his nonsense. “Just tell me now, in all this chaos, who is the most important person to you.”

Cedrick was at a loss for words. He looked at Lucille and struggled to speak again, “Lucille, you know…”

“She doesn’t know.”

Robert cut him off again. “Fine, if you don’t want to answer directly. The choice is right in front of you. You can leave now, but if you do, don’t you ever show your face in front of Lucille again!”

Lucille thought her brother still didn’t understand Cedrick.

How many times had she been through a choice like this?

The most terrifying, and the time she lost all hope, was when a knife was pointed at her face, and Cedrick still chose Maricela over her.

Now that she was perfectly fine right here, would he really choose her?

As expected, Cedrick looked at her. “Lucille, you know me. I’ve never changed my mind about spending my life with you. I just have to take care of some things. I’ll be back as soon as I’m done…”

“Get out!”

Robert didn’t want to hear another word.

Although Cedrick wanted to say more to Lucille, with this man here, first, nothing he said would get through, and second, he really couldn’t delay things with Maricela any longer.

So, he hastily threw out a “Lucille, wait for me,” and ran out of the hospital room.

Robert stared at the closed door, his face darkening completely.

But then he remembered Lucille beside him and his expression changed. With a husband like that. Lucille must be so heartbroken!

“Lucille…” he tried to comfort her.

Lucille turned back and smiled at him, “Brother, I’m fine, really.”

It was the outcome she’d expected all along. What was there to be sad about?

Besides, the only thing left between her and Cedrick was the divorce papers. They’d file them once Grandma was out of the hospital. Nothing Cedrick did could hurt her now.

Robert believed she was fine for now, but he could only imagine how much pain and hardship she had to endure to get to this point…

He smiled and just said one word, “Good.”

Then let’s keep all these irrelevant people far away from Lucille!
