Abrielle's heartbeat was slow, and it felt like she couldn't breathe properly. "Cedric, it isn't what you think." She said as soon as Alfonso was gone.
Cedric scoffed laughing at her. "Oh really, I guess my eyes are now blind. You sent Evelyn away so that you can have a private moment with your lover." He drawled, completely amused. He could not believe he even bothered to find her after running into Evelyn.
Abrielle rushed towards his side to grab his hand. "It is not what it looked like. I was not expecting to see Alfonso. Please believe me." Cedric avoided her touch.
His eyes were cold and emotionless. "In that case, you got extra lucky to see him then. Why did you even bother looking for me?" He didn't believe her, but what did she expect? Which man would believe her in this scenario?
