The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride
Chapter 2083
The following day.
Charlie saw Cicely plant a kiss on Seth’s cheek at the doorstep once again. It wasn’t a surprise anymore. Mr. Diaz was in a good mood these last few days, and Charlie felt the ripple effect of his relaxation.
As he started the car, Charlie couldn’t help but tease, “I thought Cicely would throw a fit over your dinner with Ms. Danielle yesterday.”
The atmosphere in the car suddenly grew heavy, and Charlie realized that, from the moment he got in, Mr. Diaz’s mood seemed off compared to the previous days.
Seth didn’t respond, his face an unreadable mask of calm and indifference.
A fit? Yes, a fit. What happened to the woman who used to get so worked up over the smallest things?d2
He almost wished she would throw one of her tantrums, but she seemed to take his every command as gospel.
She didn’t question, didn’t argue, didn’t fight. She just quietly played the role of what she called a “lover.”
Hah. She had too many ways to twist a knife into his heart, with an ease that required no effort at all.
Charlie’s heart raced with anxiety. So, there was trouble in paradise?
But everything seemed fine just a moment ago.
“This afternoon, take her to pick out a Thanksgiving gift, and tomorrow, bring her to Alyssa’s place,” Seth ordered after a pause.
Tomorrow he was to take Ms. Cicely to Alyssa’s, but tomorrow was Thanksgiving.
Charlie suddenly remembered, they weren’t spending Thanksgiving together.
“Actually, after the surgery, you might be able to make it back in time to spend Thanksgiving with Ms. Cicely.”
Seth closed his eyes, hands clenched till his knuckles whitened, his voice strained to the breaking point. “What if something goes wrong. How am I supposed to face her then?”
Charlie felt a weight settle in his chest, his grip tightening on the steering wheel. He believed that nothing could be more agonizing than what they went through three years ago.
The Seth of today, a known prodigy in the business world, with his deep strategies and extreme tactics, held power and prestige in his hands. He was the epitome of elegance, seemingly born to maneuver through life with ease. To most, he appeared unshakeable, capable of commanding the winds and the storms.
But who had seen him scared?
Scared enough that his eyes turned red.
Charlie had. It was during Thanksgiving three years ago.
His only kin had passed away, and his wife had voluntarily gone to prison. He blamed himself for Creighton’s death, was anxious over Issac’s departure, and his company was in utter chaos. Each issue was more than enough to break an ordinary man.
Back then, everyone worried he wouldn’t make it through. Even the slightest breeze could have shattered him into dust. But as fate would have it, the worst always seems to happen at the worst times.
On Thanksgiving, when Erik was at death’s door, it was like a hurricane unleashed upon him without warning.
Cicely had just lost her father less than two months prior, Issac’s fate was uncertain, and her resentment towards Mr. Diaz ran deep. If Erik were to leave too, could Cicely handle it?
Losing her loved ones one after the other, what would become of her? Would she blame Mr. Diaz, hate him, or seek revenge? Just how wide would the chasm between them grow?
As an observer, that was all he could conceive. But who truly knew what Mr. Diaz was enduring, and what he was thinking?
After all, it’s impossible to truly understand pain unless the knife cuts your own flesh.
