Chapter 25 She Was Caught
Cedric gave Ladonna a measuring look and then sneered in disdain.
“Ladonna, do you think I’ll believe you?”
Later on, Ladonna had no idea how she returned to her room.
Anyhow, she was rudely tossed onto the bed.
Although the bed was soft, Ladonna was startled. Before she got up, Cedric pressed her down.
The close contact left Ladonna no room to struggle. Cedric was still wearing his suit jacket, which he didn’t have time to take off.
He must have just come back. Yet how could he have known she was running away the moment he arrived?
She hadn’t seen anyone along the way. How did Cedric find out so quickly?
Did he put a tracking device on her?
“Cedric, I can explain this. I didn’t…”
Before Ladonna finished speaking, Cedric had taken off his tie with one hand. He didn’t say a word, but he looked at her sullenly.
Evidently, he was angry.
A hint of hesitation flashing across her eyes, Ladonna knew it was too late for her to say anything.
She tried to push Cedric away, but he didn’t budge at all.

“Ladonna, you keep pushing my limits. Do you really think I won’t punish you? Do you know what happens to those who defy me?”
As he spoke, Cedric bent and forced a punishing kiss on Ladonna’s lips before she could turn away.
The sharp pain in her lips confirmed his fury wasn’t an act.
With a brutal tug, Cedric tore open her clothes, intending to teach her a good lesson.
Ladonna suddenly begged, “I know I was wrong. I won’t run away again. Cedric, I won’t escape.”
Cedric paused.
He noticed that Ladonna’s eyes had reddened.
“I won’t escape. Don’t be angry,” Ladonna said helplessly like an aggrieved child.
Cedric’s anger faded slightly, and he withdrew his restraining hands from Ladonna.
Casually throwing a blanket over her body, he warned, “Don’t even dream of escaping.
“This manor is huge, but every corner is under surveillance. Even if I’m away, I know every step you take and every move you make.
“You’ll never slip from my sight. Get it?”
Ladonna nodded quietly without saying a word.
She knew she had lost the game.
When Cedric was about to leave, Ladonna suddenly said, “Well, I…”

Cedric paused without saying anything, waiting for her to continue.

“I… I want some water,” Ladonna ventured hesitantly. Cedric helplessly pressed his lips with a faint smile.
When he turned around, he wore the familiar icy mask.
Cedric filled a glass at the table and went up to Ladonna.
“Here you go.” As he said, he stretched out his hand.
Instead of taking the water, Ladonna held his palm and said in a tender voice, “Cedric, I know I was wrong. Are we good now?”
Cedric glanced at his hand in silence with an undisguised smile in his eyes.
However, he didn’t react to her apology and nodded curtly, placing the glass in her hand and turning to leave.
After the door was closed, Ladonna lay on the bed.
Her escape plan failed, and she was caught on the spot. Now that Cedric was angry, would he stop Izabella’s treatment?
Her mind in a whirl, Ladonna rubbed her temples irritably. She decided to cool Cedric’s anger first.
She had to do something.
