Wife You Discarded is a Billionaire's Crush novel Chapter 166

Cedric didn't want to mention Douglas.

It would make it seem like he was jealous.

Subconsciously, he wanted to vent his anger by belittling Liliana.

Liliana clutched at his shirt, but she couldn't break free from his embrace.

She squirmed, her body full of resistance. "Cedric, let me go."

Her soft body rubbing against his hard chest sent a shiver through him.

His hand on her waist tightened, pulling them even closer.

"I'll go make dinner…"

Liliana didn't want to start a fight with him. She tried to change the subject, to get away from him.

Cedric's grip on her waist suddenly loosened. Before she could breathe a sigh of relief, the man, a head taller than her, bent down and hoisted her onto his shoulder—

"Ah—" she gasped, instinctively wrapping her arms tightly around his shoulders.

"I'm not hungry," Cedric said, carrying her up the stairs. "Instead of wasting time on dinner, we could be doing something more meaningful."

Liliana knew exactly what he meant by 'meaningful'.

He was going to unleash this nameless rage on her in bed.

She was wearing black leggings that hugged her slender legs, accentuating the curve of her full, round bottom.

She was also wearing light, elegant makeup and a faint perfume.

The thought of her going to see Douglas looking like this, spending the entire day with him, made Cedric clench his jaw, his expression tense.

He carried her straight to the bathroom and bent down to put her on her feet.

The lights were off. After the dizzying spin, being suddenly set down made Liliana stumble, and she fell backward, landing on the edge of the bathtub.

She instinctively reached out to steady herself, her fingertips hooking onto the buckle of his belt.

Before she could react, a stream of ice-cold water rained down from above.
