Chapter 70 - Shorty (2/2)

”I need freshly squeezed apple juice,” she said to them while taking a bite of her food.

Eleanor ate her food contently as she felt victorious for not leaving him a single food crumb.

Patting her tummy in content, she lazily slumped back in the chair. Cedric saw the efforts of Eleanor. In fact, he knew she was too hungry to the point she could even eat a cow. She didn't eat last night, so she must be hungry. He smiled as he watched from the far. When he was about to go towards her...He was suddenly dragged to the corner by four hands.

”What!?” He asked annoyed.

”Brother, What happened? Didn't you both patch up?” Katherine asked with a look said that 'I know what happened earlier.

”We patched up.” He said lowering his head, in front of his fierce sister.

”And you messed it up by calling her shorty. Right?” She said.

She was just asking him to confirm. Even if he didn't say it, she knew it's a yes.

She sighed sadly for feeling bad.

”Brother, I waited long for you to find sister-in-law. A few more years won't hurt me anymore. All the best!” Katherine said and walked towards her spot.

Before walking she turned towards her dad and said, ”Dad, you have to wait for your grandchildren for few more years too. Got it?” Katherine said and left them alone.

Cedric was about to retreat but was stopped by Regan. ”Son… You are such a disgrace to our family! I am disappointed by you! By your age… I already made your mom my girlfriend and even impregnated her with you before marriage! You are a shame to me,” Regan said with a disappointed face as he shook his head.

He walked with slow steps as if he turned into a ninety-year-old in just a few minutes. Feeling disappointed he reached his spot to watch the remaining drama at the dining table.

Cedric: ”…”

[What the fish!? I am slow! Dammit! I need to be faster at least now!] He thought.

He walked back to the table where his wife was acting like a contented cat.

”Nora babe….” Cedric lagged his voice, making Eleanor throw up food.

”Shut up! You dumbo! Don't call me that! I just ate breakfast! I don't want to throw up!” She yelled at him as she threw a spoon at him which was on the table.

Cedric dodged it at the right time, if not he would be gifted with a beautiful cherry-colored bump on his forehead.

He sighed at her actions. He needs to keep her away from objects. He needs to have a serious discussion about this with his family and find a solution for this.
