Chapter 160 - Leave (2/2)

”Rest well,” he said before leaving the cabin.

Eleanor understood few things. She raised her brow at the retreating Regan's back. He was such a old fox. He looked caring on the surface but still he delivered few things he wanted to.

First… he wanted to punish Cedric, he did. There he wanted to show that… he would be on her side if Cedric was wrong. She loved that part of him.

Second… no matter how much he supports  Eleanor… she would be his son's wife only. He will discipline Cedric, maybe even beat him if needed but in the end she belongs to him only. This was clear point she got from the earlier conversation.

Thirdly, he wants her to be selfish and put herself first from everyone. She loved it this part of him too. He wasn't asking her to adjust herself with his son or wasn't asking her to make sacrifices. He was asking her to take equal ground along with his son.

Fourthly… he loves her. Aww…. he was too cute in saying this thing to her.

Eleanor really wanted to meet her young sister-in-law right now. If men were like this, then her sister-in-law would be fun. She really wanted to meet her. Maybe she would be the female version of this both father and son. She wondered how these both men would behave around her. She could guess that her sister-in-law would be their apple of eye. From what she heard, her sister-in-law was someone who could play these two men on her fingers.

Eleanor went back to work. She was worried what kind of punishment Regan would give to Cedric. But she knew that even if she tried to take his side she would only get an earful from Regan. She only hoped that he would go easy on Cedric.

Maybe she could meet him in his company.

On the other side…

Cedric was waiting for Regan in his car. He knew his father wouldn't let him go so easily. He just hoped there would be someone beside Eleanor to protect her. He knew Nathaira's madness at him. She would go to any extent to get him back.

”Looks like… you are ready to take your punishment,” Regan mocked him.

”I am sorry, Dad,” he apologized.

”You should be sorry to Eleanor, your mother and your sister. Remember I and your mother raised you better. But now you are behaving no worse than a rapist.” he fumed. Regan couldn't help but be angry on him. How could he disrespect a woman like this?

”Go to Country Alvonia. Meet Mrs. Esther Vritra and start a partnership with her in the jewelry and clothing industry. She was going to expand her business there. In return we will be in charge of her business in the country Lucren,” Regan said.

”Dad, that takes atleast two months,” he said.

”Come here, when your done with business. If you are not done, then rot there till you turn a monk,” Regan said.

”Dad!” Cedric yelled.

”Enough of shouting. Drive now,” Regan ordered.

Cedric could only sigh at his father. If he deny him, he would make sure Cedric experience a kind of hell that a person wouldn't dare to imagine.

”Dad, I want to return in a month. If I stay away from her… who will pursue her. We will grow farther away. And with Nathaira in the picture, I am afraid,” he said.

”I will take care of that. You just need to return here like a human,” Regan said.
