447 How Dare You Use Me?
Without a word, Cedric stepped forward and swept away everything on the table. He then grabbed Stella by the neck and lifted her up!
“Who the hell are you?”
Stella’s agent screamed and hurriedly stood up from the bed. She pulled Cedric’s arm and said sternly, “Are you crazy? Behave yourself, or I will call the security...”
A slap sounded.
Cedric slapped the agent to the ground. “Scram!”
The agent was stunned. She was dizzy on the ground and was quickly dragged out by Peter and Joey. Only Cedric and Stella were left in the room. Stella was so scared that she gripped Cedric’s wrist with all her might. Her face was full of horror. “Cedric, what’s wrong with you?”
“Stella, who is the father of the baby in your belly?”
A hint of panic flashed through Stella’s eyes. “You know it, right? Joseph has told you everything, right?”
Cedric narrowed his eyes. “You really lied to me! That child is not Joseph’s at all!”
.....
Stella’s eyes widened. “You tricked me!”
“Yes! I tricked you!
“Because I know Joseph too well. He was not the kind who would shamelessly propose to Isabella after he and you had a child!”
Stella said in disbelief, “Did he really propose to Isabella? They made up so quickly.”
“Stella! How dare you use me!”
When Cedric heard Stella’s words, he instantly understood everything. He exerted strength in his hands, and narrowed his eyes with anger. “Do you know the price of using me? Tell me the truth! Who is the father of the child in your belly? Why did Joseph fall for your trap?”
Stella opened her mouth and rolled her eyes in pain. Her entire face was purple from suffocation, “It is Kason’s child.”
Cedric was stunned. He released Stella and took a step back. He looked at Stella’s belly in horror. “It’s Kason’s child. You’re pregnant with Kason’s child. How is this possible?”
Stella covered her throat and coughed violently for a while.
She then sneered, “Why is it impossible? You don’t dare to hurt me, do you? Aren’t you afraid of Kason’s retaliation?”
“Kason is heartless. At the age of 15, he personally killed the man who raised him and taught him a lot of skills. He is a person who had no concept of what the family is. How could he let you keep the child? When he joined the mafia, he swore that he would not establish a home and have any child. He said he would devote his life to his career and no one would become his weakness!” Cedric said.
Cedric then concluded, “You’re lying! The women who wanted to keep his child in the past were all killed by him!”
Stella said, “Yes, you are right. That’s why I asked Joseph to help me to keep this child...”
Stella sat on the bed with tears streaming down her face. She sneered, “I am the kind of woman you are talking about. I have been with Kason for so many years. I was pregnant with his child five times, but he dragged me to have an abortion operation every time he knew that I was pregnant... My uterine wall has been damaged to the point that I can no longer have a child! The doctor said that if this child cannot be saved, I may never have a chance to get pregnant again in my life!”
“But if you do this, it will attract Kason’s revenge!”
“Even though Kason was ruthless, he is still a human! I do not believe that he will really kill his own child after I give birth to the child!”
Cedric clenched his fists tightly. “So you asked Joseph to do this for you, right? If Kason knew about this, he would definitely think that you guys were trying to find something on him. Both you and Joseph will die in a miserable way!”
“No, no one will know about this. As long as everyone thinks that this child is Joseph’s, then Kason will not know about this...”
Stella’s eyes were filled with madness. She added, “And Kason has the rule of not killing children under the age of two, not to mention his own child!”
Cedric shook his head in disbelief. “Stella, you are crazy! You actually want to keep Kason’s child. You know it’s Kason’s taboo. You are really crazy...”
“Yes, I’m crazy!” Stella roared.
She then continued, “When I was isolated, I found I was pregnant! When everyone gave up on me, my child miraculously appeared! This is a gift from the heavens to me. Don’t blame me. Even if I have to risk my life, I will protect the child regardless of whether his father is Kason or the devil!”
Cedric was lost for words.
On the river around Peace City.
The boat filled with the fragrance of fresh flowers and dolls leisurely sailed by.
Isabella looked at Joseph’s expression and said awkwardly, “I’m sorry... I didn’t mean that. Forget it, and I won’t mention it.”
Joseph opened the small box in front of him. He said, “You’re right. Maybe I didn’t see through Stella at all. From the beginning to now, I have never really seen through her... If it wasn’t for what happened to you, I would never know that she liked to lie so much.”
Isabella looked at Joseph’s sad look, scratched her head and explained, “Maybe her nature is not like this. She was scared by the kidnapping... Her behavior was a little despicable, but it was because she really loves you so much and has no sense of security. And that’s why she went crazy and unscrupulous.”
Joseph looked up at Isabella and raised his eyebrows. “Why are you suddenly on her side? She just tripped us and caused a big misunderstanding between us. Based on your personality, shouldn’t you be so angry that you want to teach her a lesson right now?”
Isabella blushed and gave Joseph a small punch. “I’m not that furious... I’m not on her side, I just... I just don’t want you to be too sad. After all, she is your childhood friend. If she is really bad and has deceived you a lot, you will be sad too.”
“Yes...”
Joseph sighed softly, “For so many years, I have never questioned what she said to me... If she really kept lying to me...”
Joseph lowered his head and thought for a moment. Suddenly, he laughed at himself. “That’s too scary...”
Seeing Joseph’s expression, Isabella hurriedly snatched the box in front of him. “Forget it, darling, let’s not talk about it anymore. Let me see what good things you have here.”
Joseph looked at Isabella, who was happily flipping through the box. He moved forward and pulled Isabella into his arms, “Isabella, the father of the child in Stella’s belly is very dangerous. Can you pretend that you don’t know about this at all? After I return Stella this favor, I won’t meet her again, okay?”
Isabella lay in Joseph’s arms. “Is that person the legendary ruthless and terrible Kason?”
Joseph’s eyes flickered. After a long silence, he said, “No, he is a freak even more terrifying than Kason.”
