257 Cedric

The first time Cedric Stretton saw Isabella, he was interested in her. Although he was an introvert, he could not help but want to greet his little chubby girl. Following her around the corner, he found she sneaking into the shadow of a grape rack, squatting forward, and acting like she was doing something bad.

Was this beautiful girl actually a little demon?

Cedric treaded softly and secretly watched Isabella. She dug a hole with a small child shovel and quickly placed in a bowl of quail eggs and buried it.

Cedric could not help but laugh. “It’s not wise to hide delicious food here. It will get dirty.”

“Ah! Who are you?!”

Isabella was startled that she sat on the ground. Then, she quickly covered the hole with her body and said cautiously, “Why did you peek at me?”

Cedric scratched his head and said awkwardly, “Sorry, I didn’t mean to peek.”

“Sorry isn’t good enough!”

“Go away! If you dare to steal my egg, I will hit you with my shovel!” Isabella threatened Cedric, holding the child shovel.

.....

‘This little girl was quite fierce.’ Cedric was amused.

He looked at Isabella, who was clearly trembling in fear but was still protecting her food. He could not help but laugh, “I won’t steal your egg. I’m reminding you from good intentions. That one is dirty. Eating it will give you an upset stomach.”

“I won’t eat it!”

Isabella snorted, “Those who eat eggs are all bad people!”

“Why is that?” Cedric was puzzled.

“Because dad said that the egg will hatch a bird.”

Isabella mumbled and sprinkled the grass on the ground as a cover, “Don’t worry. When the guests leave, you can turn into birds and fly away.”

Cedric was stunned. It seemed that the little girl was hoping that these cooked quail eggs would turn into birds. It was really childish and kind. He suddenly burst out laughing.

“What are you laughing at? Are you still trying to steal my egg?”

Isabella put her hands on her waist, and the two braids on her head raised to the sky.

“No, those eggs you buried can’t hatch birds, because they are cooked, and the birds inside are already dead.”

Cedric was interested and took the child shovel from Isabella. He dug out the bird egg again and was ready to give her a lesson.

God, all the eggs had been broken. These quail eggs were not cooked but raw.

“AAAHHH -”

Isabella stared at the birds with her big, dark eyes. After one glance, she immediately sat on the ground and cried. “You killed the birds! You are a bad person!”

“I didn’t kill them. They were crushed by stones.” Cedric explained weakly seeing Isabella crying so hard.

“No! It was you who killed them with shovel! Argh -”

Isabella cried so hard that Cedric was afraid adults will come to check and blame him for making her cry. He squatted with his face flushed and wiped Isabella’s face with a handkerchief in his pocket. “Don’t cry, I’ll compensate you a bird, okay?”

Isabella peeked out between her fingers. “Alive bird?”

“Yes, yes. It’s alive and colorful.”

It turned out that Isabella had done this kind of scam to Cedric when she was young...

Later, Cedric began to like Slike’s Restaurant. As promised, he brought a little budgerigar for Isabella.

Isabella happily reached out to Cedric for a hug. Cedric picked up the chubby little girl and hung the parrot under the grape rack with her.

Isabella happily kissed him on the cheek and brown nosed, “Cedric is the best! I like Cedric the most!”

Cedric suddenly got kissed by Isabella, his face turned red. Then, he cleared his throat and warned Isabella, “Do you know that girls shouldn’t kiss others randomly?”

“Why?”

“I kiss dad and mom. They are happy when I kiss them.” Isabella asked innocently and fiddled with her chubby hands.

“Other than mom and dad, you should not kiss the rest, especially boys.”

Cedric did not know how to explain the relationship between men and women to a five-year-old child, so he could only say this.

“Alright, I won’t kiss Cedric anymore.”

“...other than mom and dad, and also Cedric...”

After the summer vacation, Cedric was sent to an exclusive boarding high school in the city. He could only come back on weekends and go to the Slike Restaurant.

At that time, he used blue sulfuric acid copper to imitate the Heart of the Sea in the Titanic and made a blue heart-shaped crystal. When he put it in the jar and was ready to bring it to Isabella as a gift, he did not expect to hear the news of the bombing at Slike’s Restaurant.

At that time, the news was particularly sensational. The TV station reported it all day. Cedric saw from the far that the garden he used to play with Isabella was unrecognizable. Before he got the time to grieve, he was taken away by the bodyguards.

At that time, he and Isabella had only met four or five times, but he already liked this cute and beautiful little girl very much. Therefore, he asked many people to know if Isabella survived from the explosion.

But there was no result.

Cedric felt so painful and even didn’t want to eat or drink. His father could no longer sit back and do nothing, he began to use the power of Black Rock Group, and finally got the message-

Slike White’s wife and daughter were safe and sound, but because they were in debt, his wife had already been married to a faraway place...

Although it was sad that they may not see each other again, it was much better for Cedric to know that she was alive.

Cedric Stretton finally put down the burden in his heart and slowly returned to his normal days...

But he never thought that many years later, the person who touched him deep inside under the silver moonlight was the cute and beautiful Isabella...

“You are the Cedric?”

Isabella looked at Cedric in surprise.

“You finally remember me?” Cedric Stretton put away the disappointment and sadness in his memories and smiled happily.

“Actually, I don’t remember...”

Isabella looked at Cedric Stretton, paused, and then said honestly, “I just remember that someone I called Cedric gave me a small budgerigar, but I don’t remember what he looks like at all.”

“You were too young at that time. You were only 4 or 5 years old.”

Cedric indulgently rubbed Isabella’s head and measured her height with his hand. “At that time, you were only this high. Very chubby, like a dough.”

Isabella couldn’t help but laugh, “Sounds like you really are Cedric. I was indeed quite fat when I was a child. I could eat two bowls every meal if my dad cooks. I was simply a hopeless foodie.”

Cedric slid down the hand that he placed on Isabella’s head and gently brushed across Isabella’s cheek. Her eyes were filled with an aura as gentle as water. “Isabella, Cedric really misses you...”

Isabella instantly recalled her past carefree memories. She felt as if she had found a family. She couldn’t help but feel tears welling up in her eyes. She said excitedly, “Cedric, I finally see you again.”
