Chapter 28 Sleeping in Peace
Seeing Cedric finally smile, Ladonna felt completely reassured.
“It’s great you’re not angry now. Do you still have some work to do in the study?”
Cedric knew Ladonna wanted to leave after appeasing him.
He frowned slightly, but eventually let out a sigh and gently brushed the hair away from Ladonna’s face.
“There is indeed some work left. You can go to bed first.”
After saying this, he gently kissed her forehead before leaving.
After Cedric’s figure completely disappeared, Ladonna got up and looked at her bandaged foot.
A hint of helplessness showed in her eyes.
She didn’t achieve her escape plan, and she even twisted her ankle.
It seemed she could only delay the escape.
After a long time, when Ladonna finally fell asleep, the door of her room was quietly opened.
Cedric walked to Ladonna’s bedside, and he lay down on the bed with a hint of fatigue on his face.
He pulled Ladonna into his arms, smelling her unique scent, and only then did Cedric feel relaxed.
So, he held her and fell asleep peacefully.

He didn’t know why, but with Ladonna’s company these past few days, he felt he slept better.
However, Cedric didn’t notice that just as he opened the door, a maid happened to pass by.
And the maid’s gaze fell on the sleeping Ladonna.
At the Ferguson’s mansion.
Randall slammed his cup to the ground fiercely. “That woman still lives there? How dare she?!”
The person standing next to Randall was the butler. He failed to assassinate Ladonna and was caught last time.
The butler helped Randall sit down on a chair, then glanced at the maid who brought the news.
The maid understood it, so she turned and left.
Then the butler spoke up, “Sir Ferguson, please don’t be too angry. It’s not worth getting mad for that woman.”
“I’ve tried every possible method. I just want to drive her out, to prevent her from showing up in front of Cedric again. Why is it so difficult?”
Randall was frustrated, but his tone was full of coldness.
He was thinking of killing Ladonna.
Actually, at the beginning, Randall wanted to directly kill Ladonna and
her child.
But unexpectedly, Cedric happened to save her.
No matter what, Randall couldn’t let Ladonna stay with Cedric anymore.

The butler was also thinking about the plan for a moment, then he spoke, “Sir Ferguson, it’s not the right time for us to step in now, but we can have others do it.”
“What do you mean?” Randall looked at the butler after hearing his words.
A faint smile appeared on the butler’s face, but his eyes showed a ruthless look.
“As far as I know, Ladonna is very concerned about her reputation. She can live comfortably in Mr. Ferguson’s house now only because no one judged her.
“But if someone makes her feel humiliated, do you think she would still be willing to stay there?”
The butler was indeed right this time.
Ladonna thought that Cedric was very good to her and Izabella, and staying here would be of great help to Izabella’s treatment.
But if someone started to judge and mòck Izabella, then Ladonna would want to leave.
Randall felt that what the butler said made sense, so he began to arrange for someone to execute this plan.
The next morning, when Ladonna got up, Cedric was already not in the
room.
He seemed to be very busy these days, so Ladonna rarely saw him.
After getting up, Ladonna went downstairs, planning to have breakfast, but she only found that there was nothing on the dining table.
She frowned in doubt and asked the maid, “Excuse me, haven’t you prepared breakfast yet?”
