Chapter 445:
Cedric reflexively straightened up as Lillian squinted at him and asked,
“Cedric, what were you doing just now?”
Cedric couldn't help but think that crowded places were definitely not for him. He couldn't even hold his wife's
hand.
With a quiet sigh, he shrugged it off and said casually,
“Just watching TV.”
From that point on, Lillian kept turning around, even going out of her way to physically separate them.
Cedric clenched his jaw, narrowed his eyes, and glanced over at Ryan, who was engrossed in typing.
“Would you mind taking her out of here? I'd really appreciate it.”
Ryan let out a brief chuckle.

Cedric clicked his tongue in frustration.
“How can you be so spineless?”
Ryan looked up with a grin, his eyes clearly saying, “Sgoes for you.”
That night, Cedric remained in the living room, stretching his stay until midnight.
He assumed Daniela had already turned in, yet Lillian was still wide awake.
“Lillian, why are you staring atlike that?” he asked.

“You're acting oddly. Cedric, letmake something clear: loving someone doesn’t mean you have to be with
them. Do you understand what | mean?”
Cedric muttered, “Yes.”
Despite his exhaustion, he couldn't suppress a feeling of smugness.
Loving someone didn’t equate to being with them.
Yet, he already had her.
Daniela was his wife, after all.
It had been a whole month now.
Lillian fixed him with a steady stare, and Cedric, feeling cornered, quickly sent a message to Ryan, who was still
in the room.
Ryan set aside his laptop, stood, and suggested,
“Lillian, cjoinfor a late-night snack.”
Lillian declined with a curt,
“No.”
Ryan nodded nonchalantly.
“Oh, well, I'll go alone then. That place had great food last time.”
He grabbed his coat and headed for the door.
Cedric leaned back in his chair with a faint smile playing on his lips.

Lillian sprang to her feet and dashed after Ryan. Cedric chuckled to himself, turned off the TV, and headed
upstairs.
Daniela, though exhausted, hadn't quite drifted off. She could tell the instant Cedric entered the room.
Cedric gently lifted the blanket, taking care not to disturb her at first.
