Chapter 58 - His Heart (1/2)
Olivia stood up first and Brione followed her but Cedric held her wrist, stopping her.
His eyes were asking her if it was really alright.
Olivia saw his look and knew what he was asking so she snorted, ”Geez, what's with that worried look Cedric? I won't bite Brione okay? I just want to get to know her more. Can't I even do that as one of your closest friends?”
Cedric chuckled and raised his hand in surrender, ”Alright then, you two have fun getting to know each other.”
He then looked at Brione and said, ”Call me when you two are done so that I can pick you up okay?”
Olivia's eyes rolled as she mumbled, ”She can sleep with me after we're done. I strongly believe that it's even safer if she sleeps with me in case both of us get drunk so don't you dare get in between us.”
Cedric could not comment anymore and watched as Olivia dragged Brione out from the room.
”Don't worry Cedric. Olivia is a fine woman and not someone who will trample on a person simply because she is hurt. Geez, I can't believe that you are worrying so much right now. I really feel bad for Olivia,” Will commented with a frown.
”I know that Will. I'm just worried that Brione might mention something about Gavin. It will only end up complicating things, Will. I don't know much about Brione's alcohol tolerance but last time…” Cedric whispered.
Last time, Brione was aggressive enough to kiss him though she only had a few shots of whiskey.
Will breathed a frustrated sigh and said, ”Then let her bring up Gavin. Olivia deserves to know everything too Cedric. You used to trust Olivia more than anyone else, even more than me. You used to tell her secrets that you never tell me. You know, Olivia actually told me that she's suspecting that you are someone else as well. Just as Brione is suspecting that you are Gavin, Olivia is suspecting you are not Cedric.”
”And how about you Will? Do you think the same as her?” Cedric asked, looking at Will keenly.
”Ah, I don't know either but one thing is for sure. You are part of the Royal Family and have Royal Blood flowing in your veins regardless of whether you are the real Cedric or not. Geez, if you only knew how fast I mobilized our men to double-check everything.” Will complained about a crumpled face.
Cedric laughed and patted his back, ”How about we go and get a drink too huh? You look like you badly need it.”
”Ah, it's all your fault. You must try and remember everything Cedric. Or even at least a few details that give us some hint to confirm that you really are Cedric because right now, we are all torn. To be honest, I myself can't even tell for sure because of the drastic changes in you,” Will said.
”How about you check my butt?,” Cedric casually stated, making Will choke on his water.
”What?!” Will questioned in disbelief.
