302 What Do You Think You Are?
“Isabella, I promise I will never bully you or betray you. Let’s give each other a chance.”
Hearing Isabella’s whimper, Cedric hugged her tighter. “Isabella, don’t cry. From now on, I’ll be with you, and I will make you happy.”
Then, Cedric cupped Isabella’s face in his hands, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingertips, looked at her fiery red lips, and gently brought his lips closer...
Isabella moved her head back a little, but she did not intentionally dodge or struggle. Instead, she gently closed her eyes.
Differing from Joseph’s domineering and fierce kiss, Cedric’s was warm and gentle, which made Isabella feel at ease.
Isabella’s happiness should be with Cedric by her side.
Someone like Joseph could never be Isabella’s future.
Rosa ever told Isabella that future happiness was the most important thing for a woman.
Isabella was eager for happiness, and she just wanted a stable and warm further, without sadness...
.....
Joseph drove quickly to the Stratton’s. Without an invitation letter, security guard, or any communication, he directly entered the hall.
No one would stop Joseph who grew up with Cedric together, and no one dared to stop him.
Joseph was out of breath when he stepped into the hall. He looked everywhere for that red figure. He remembered that in the photo, Isabella was wearing a gorgeous red dress today.

Before Jayden finished speaking, Joseph had walked directly to the balcony. Then, they saw Cedric hugging and kissing Isabella...
Joseph suddenly stood stunned, without a move.
Jayden glanced at Isabella and Cedric and sighed, “Cool! Cedric, you are so great to get her so soon!”
Then, Jayden realized that Joseph was not in the mood, so he rolled his eyes and explained, “Joseph, they have known each other since their childhood. Cedric said that he was serious this time in person. Let’s stop poking fun at Isabella. Otherwise, Cedric will be angry... Joseph?”
Joseph’s eyes darkened sharply, his handsome face was gloomy terrifyingly, and his fist clenched tightly.
Jayden sensed that something was wrong. “Joseph, what happened to you...”
Joseph suddenly smiled.
But that smile was even colder than a thousand-year iceberg. Then Joseph turned around and left...
After a long time, Cedric gently released his arms around Isabella. Isabella looked at Cedric with some unfamiliar uncertainty.
Cedric smiled and pressed his forehead against Isabella’s. “Isabella, I hope to dance with you for the ending dance tonight, which can directly announce to the whole Peace City that you will be my wife in the future. I’d like everyone to know that I have such a cute and beautiful wife.”
Isabella thought about it and finally agreed.
Cedric wiped away the tears on Isabella’s cheeks. His fingertips slowly slid from the corner of Isabella’s eyes to her slightly swollen lips and rubbed them gently. Then Cedric said happily, “Did I kiss too hard just now? If so, you can hit me, and I won’t hit back.”
“No, you didn’t. But I need to wash my face and reapply makeup.”
Isabella gently broke free from Cedric’s embrace. “I had a lot of makeup tonight, so I will look terrible after crying, which is very embarrassing.”
“Not bad.”
Cedric could not help kissing Isabella on the forehead. “No matter how you look, you are extremely beautiful in my eyes.”
Isabella smiled. “I’ll go.”
“Go, and I will wait for you.”
Cedric gently freed Isabella and teased, “I need two bottles of iced beer. Otherwise, I will explode.”
“Explode?”
“Explode happily.” Cedric made a mischievous face.
Isabella could not help but laugh. “Go ahead to drink. I’ll go for re-makeup.”
Cedric was unwilling to let go of Isabella, with his eyes full of happiness and tenderness...
Isabella got her handbag from the staff and went to the bathroom alone. She took out a tissue, looked into the mirror, and carefully wiped the tears on her face.
Then, Isabella lowered her head and took out the powder puff. When she looked up again, she saw Joseph in the mirror.
A scream sounded behind, and a woman was so frightened that she fled hurriedly. Isabella turned around and asked in surprise, “Joseph, why are you here?”
Isabella’s chin was pinched suddenly by a big hand that was like a plier.
Joseph’s clean and handsome face had a stubble beard and his hair was a little messy, which made him look very haggard and terrible. He stared at Isabella with his bloodshot eyes. “What benefits did Cedric offer you to make you completely obey him within two days? Tell me!”
Isabella couldn’t pay attention to Joseph’s words because she felt that her entire chin was going to be dislocated. She struggled in the pain. “Joseph, let go of me first. It hurts!”

Joseph leaned over, fiercely sucked in Isabella’s lip, and bit it.
Isabella groaned, “Are you crazy!?”
Isabella pushed Joseph away with her full strength and ran towards the door.
Joseph looked horrible. What a horrible look he had now!
Isabella hadn’t seen Joseph for just two days. How did he become like this?
Joseph took a big step forward and blocked Isabella’s way. He hugged Isabella by the waist, locked the door, and threw her directly onto the sink.
“Joseph, Stop!”
The sound of fabric being torn was heard.
At the moment Isabella’s dress was torn apart, Joseph pounced on her like a hungry tiger and landed violent kisses on Isabella’s chest and neck.
“Joseph, what do you want?”
Isabella suddenly realized what Joseph was doing through his series of actions, so she struggled. “Don’t touch me! Don’t!”
“You’re saying that he can touch you but I can’t, right? How badly do you lack a man, finding a new master so fast?”
Joseph’s roar almost deafened Isabella. Joseph was like a furious lion. And Isabella was like a weak and powerless kitten, suppressed by Joseph so firmly that she could not move at all.
“That’s right. He can touch me, but you can’t!”
Isabella had a slightly subtle sense of “guilt” when she saw Joseph, but now seeing that Joseph was going crazy and hurting her, she just ignored it and yelled at him, “What do you think you are? Why do you think that you can touch me?”
“What am I?!”
Joseph tugged at Isabella’s dress. “You have run away from home for two days and one night, during which I have looked for you everywhere like a fool. I felt guilty and bitter. What do you think I am? You will graduate in a few days and we will get married soon. But you actually hugged another man and kissed him! What do you think I am? Well, I will let you know what I am to you today!”
