The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride
Chapter 2089
Cicely instinctively took a step back, bumping into Seth who had followed closely behind her.
Seth wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her into his embrace. Those people passed by them without a second glance.
Cicely’s eyes softened for a moment, and she straightened up, attempting to step out of Seth’s arms.
Seth didn’t let go. In a low voice, he said, “Cicely, let’s take Hugo to see an eye specialist.”
“No need,” Cicely firmly replied, “Damon has already made arrangements. Tomorrow, I’ll take Hugo myself.”
Seth pondered for a moment, “Alright, if Damon’s arranged it, there should be no issues.”d2
Standing slightly behind her, he couldn’t see her face, but his gaze was fixed on Hugo’s youthful features, which bore a striking resemblance to his own.
Perhaps sensing Seth’s gaze, Hugo, out of curiosity or wariness, turned his blind eyes towards Seth, his gaze filled with caution and inquiry. Such a guarded look brought a slight smirk to Seth’s lips.
Hugo’s eyes furrowed, a clear sign of his displeasure, as he buried his face into Cicely’s neck.
When Cicely turned to face Seth, she found his eyes already on her. She frowned slightly, a muffled commotion catching her attention.
“It wasn’t me! I haven’t done a thing, what proof do you have?”
The voice was familiar. Cicely turned to see familiar bouncers at the door.
“Let me go!”
As Danielle’s voice grew more piercing and clear, she was dragged out by the men. Her pale face twisted in anguish, she was dressed in a hospital gown, struggling despite her evident lack of strength.
Maybe it was their gaze that caught her, but Danielle suddenly straightened up, her struggle turning into a desperate attempt to reach them.
Seth tightened his hold on Cicely, “Let’s go inside.”
“Seth!” Danielle’s cry stopped him, and she ran up to him. “Did you send these men for me?”
Seth remained silent.
A bitter, trembling smile cracked Danielle’s lips, her eyes brimming with unshed tears. “Won’t you leave me even a shred of dignity? How desperately do you want to destroy every good memory I have of you? I’ve done nothing wrong, Seth. I just loved you. Why must you be so cruel to me?”
“I tolerated your lies for three years, and I donated blood desperately to save Grandpa, nearly half my blood. Yet you sent people to arrest me the day after the surgery?!”
She had thought the revelations of the previous day were the depths of despair, but today she discovered a new abyss.
How easy it was to be hurt, to despair, and to collapse? Was this the pain Cicely had felt years ago? Indeed, it was a tragic thing.
Her gaze slowly shifted to Cicely and the child in her arms. She paused, “Cicely, who are you holding?”
Danielle’s expression was filled with a heavy deathly pallor and madness. Cicely took a step back, holding Hugo close. “That’s none of your concern.”
“Who is he?!” Danielle screamed, her whole body trembling, her face contorting into something fierce.
Hugo, hidden in Cicely’s embrace, furrowed his brow, tightened his grip on her collar, and turned his head to “face” Danielle. “Don’t you dare hurt my mom!”
Danielle’s eyes widened with shock as she stumbled backward at the sight of Hugo’s face.
Hugo, unable to see Danielle’s expression, wanted to stand up for his mom but felt powerless. His little face clouded over with dark anger, mirroring Seth’s own angry expression.
Danielle shook her head, “No, it can’t be. You were in prison… How could you have his child…”
Hugo’s dark eyes “looked” towards Danielle, then after a few seconds of silence, he turned and reached out, fumbling until he found Seth’s sleeve. “Daddy, hug—”
Seth’s heart thudded violently, his eyes involuntarily trembling. “What did you call me?”
Hugo frowned, pursed his lips, and repeated, “Daddy, hug—”
Cicely was also shaken, unable to regain her composure, but Hugo in her arms was squirming, truly wanting Seth to hold him.
Seth looked down at Cicely, and seeing no objection from her, he reached out and lifted Hugo into his arms. Seth held Hugo with practiced ease and natural grace.
Danielle’s mind went blank, her ears ringing. If not for the people on either side, she would have collapsed to the ground.
They had a child together three years ago! What did that make her?
For three years, every beautiful moment she had imagined with him had already been claimed by Cicely.
Was there any joke more ridiculous than her?
She had not been able to compete with Cicely three years ago. And now, after all her scheming, she had lost miserably again.
She laughed and cried at the same time, shaking her head, unable to accept this reality. Yet, the undeniable truth was right before her.
