The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride
Chapter 2091
“Ms. Cicely, could you please go check on Mr. Diaz?” Charlie asked, with a hint of desperation in his voice.
Cicely narrowed her eyes, her frown carrying a chill. “I thought after all his efforts, he was over it, ready to let me go.”
Charlie swallowed hard, the comely man’s eyes reddening before her. “Yes, Mr. Diaz thought so too. Ms. Cicely, he’s been back from abroad for over twenty days now. He hasn’t shown up around you, has he?”
A tight sensation gripped Cicely’s chest, her fingers curling slightly. After a long silence, she turned her head aside. “So? What’s wrong with him?”
Clutching his fists, Charlie slowly said, “If you go, maybe then we will find out what’s really going on with him.”
Cicely spun around, her gaze piercing as she stared at Charlie. Seconds later, she let out a scoff. “You think it’s fun to play me?”d2
Charlie took a deep breath, his eyes closed. “Do you really think I’d leave my work, and risk my paycheck, just to play a trick on you? Ms. Cicely, you’re the apple of Mr. Diaz’s eye. Would I dare to play you?”
*
Charlie drove Cicely back to her mansion, her expression colder than the frost on a winter’s window.
“He gets you to play the sympathy card just to bring me back home?” she questioned, her tone icy.
Without a word, Charlie drove past the grand gates of Cicely’s Mansion and into the adjacent, more imposing estate. He opened the car door for her, and at the entrance of the villa, a man stood waiting. As she approached, he strode forward and gave her a thumbs-up.
“Well done! I’ve never been so enlightened,” he said with a mix of sarcasm and awe.
Cicely frowned at the burly man before her and took a step back. “What’s this about?”
Kane sneered, turning to admire the splendid villa. “The house is grand, the decor lavish, but it’s all wasted on that asshole living alone.”
Cicely’s brows knitted even tighter. Kane’s crude language was grating to her ears. “Kane,” she warned.
“What? Is it just my language you can’t stand, or do you not like hearing Seth called an asshole?”
Cicely’s expression turned icy.
Kane took a deep breath. “I’m amazed. To think he’d drive himself to the brink of death over a woman.”
Cicely’s fingertips trembled slightly.
“Go inside. Could you at least check if that idiot is still alive?”
Usually, Seth was as cunning as a fox, not swayed by hard or soft tactics, except for Danielle.
In the end, it was all a facade.
What they said about Danielle being the one he held dear to his heart and soul was all a lie. He was just deliberately deceiving a woman’s feelings to make her a willing blood bank.
His methods were damn despicable.
Even if Danielle was a heinous woman, she didn’t deserve this. He should’ve kept things separate.
How did he convince himself to become such a despicable person?
And now, after all his wrongdoing, he suddenly wanted to be a good man. How idiotic.
“Ms. Cicely,” Charlie interjected, pulling her from her thoughts.
She glanced at the villa and pursed her lips. “You two are his trusted assistant and best friend. I doubt my presence will make things go your way.”
Kane suddenly turned, his frown deepening as he looked at her, then he kicked the car beside him in frustration. “For heaven’s sake, just try, okay?! What do you want me to do, get down on my knees and beg?”
Kane was known for his carefree, wealthy playboy antics. No one had seen him this crazed or grim.
Her trembling fingers clenched tightly, the pain sharp in her palm. Without another word, she stepped into the villa, Charlie and Kane following.
The familiar design, furniture, and decorations were all her doing.
The living room was empty.
“He’s upstairs in the master bedroom,” Kane said from behind her. “He’s been locked in there for seven or eight days now. At first, he was dealing with business matters, but these past few days, he’s shut down completely. Not eating or drinking, acting like a lunatic.”
Cicely was called over without any clue of what had happened. Now hearing this, all she could do was frown deeply. “Not eating or drinking for seven or eight days?”
Kane’s face was grim as he gave a dark laugh. “He’s been worse, locked away for a month once, surviving on glucose. He’s tough.”
Cicely’s heart clenched, her eyes trembling before she looked up at Kane. Her lips parted as if to speak, but no sound came out.
Charlie glanced at her, then after a few seconds of silence, took a deep breath and suggested, “Ms. Cicely, I’m sorry we called you here on such a short notice, but now that you are here, maybe we could talk first.”
Cicely’s brow twitched involuntarily. “Talk about what. I don’t want to know too much.”
“Perfect, because I’m curious to hear what’s to be said. Let’s all listen.” A deep, steady voice came from the entrance, and everyone turned to see Damon walking in with Chloe.
“Damon! Chloe!” Kane greeted them, though his enthusiasm was lacking.
Charlie nodded respectfully as well.
Cicely’s face paled, her grip on her purse tightening as she instinctively stepped back, her desire to flee obvious.
