340 You Are Lying on My Bed
Isabella nodded hard. “Thank you, Cedric!”
“Isabella, you are here.”
A gentle and warm voice sounded. Isabella saw Lukas walking toward them. He looked handsome in a white suit and his face was full of happiness.
Rosy was dressed in a white dress and held Lukas’s arm. She welcomed the guests before changing into her wedding dress.
Isabella gave them her sincere blessings, “Rosy, Lukas, congratulations.”
Rosy rolled her eyes in disdain and looked at Cedric who was tall and handsome. “This is...”
Rosy then glanced at Lukas and said, “He looks so familiar.”
Lukas thought for a while. Seeing that the man was holding Isabella’s, Lukas said uncertainly, “Are you...?”
“I am Cedric.”
.....
Cedric always kept a low profile. Almost no one had seen him beside the friend circle of four famous men in Peace City, so Cedric was not surprised that Lukas didn’t know him. Cedric extended his hand to greet him, “I wish you a happy marriage.”
“Cedric!”
Rosy widened her eyes in surprise. Lukas was also stunned. “You are the president of the Stretton Group ... Mr. Stretton?”
“Yes, I am.”
Lukas looked at Isabella, stunned. “Mr. Cedric, it’s a great honor to have you at our wedding. I hope you’ll have a good time. Feel free to tell us your needs.”
Rosy also stretched out her hand. “Mr. Cedric, it is a great honor to see you. I have seen the monument you designed for Florence. It is a great piece of artwork. If there is a chance, I want to learn the art from you.”
Cedric smiled. “No problem. I hope Miss Rosy will take care of Isabella. She keeps talking about you to me.”
Rosy looked at Isabella in fear. “Right, I remember now. You guys met at a blind date party... So you guys are...”
“Isabella is now my girlfriend.”
Cedric held Isabella tighter and said in a doting voice, “Although we still need more time to know each other, I believe I will become Miss Rosy’s brother-in-law soon.”
Rosy covered her mouth in shock and looked at Isabella in disbelief.
“If there is nothing else, we will go and rest now.”
Cedric said gently, “Just leave us alone. There are so many media reporters outside. I believe this wedding can be very tiring.”
Lukas nodded. “Take care.”
Cedric and Isabella went upstairs. Rosy frowned. “Lukas, did you hear that? Isabella got together with Cedric. I told you she was very capable. Look, she was so obedient in front of Cedric, like a docile cat.”
Lukas let go of Rosy and said with a cold tone, “That has nothing to do with us. Rosy, doesn’t your father want to use this wedding as an opportunity to showcase the Smith Design? If we don’t deal with the media reporters, they will report you as an arrogant man tomorrow.”
Rosy’s expression went cold for a moment before she hurriedly caught up to him. “Lukas, wait! I know you don’t want the media here, but I can’t talk my father out of his idea! Wait for me! The baby is kicking me. I can’t walk fast!”
Because of Carl’s meticulous arrangement, Cedric and Isabella’s rooms were next to each other.
Cedric pulled Isabella into his room and showed her the picture on his phone. “Take a look at this.”
Isabella took the phone and looked at it carefully for a while. She said in surprise, “This is the blueprint?”
“Yes.”
Cedric slid the phone to the next page. “Look at this design. The technical department has tried to restore it as much as possible, but the left corner was still vague. It is the most crucial part. What a pity.”
Isabella frowned. “It seems that we fail again.”
“So today, I want to get the photo from Carl. I believe that we can identify the original blueprint with the complete version.”
Isabella nodded, and then said dejectedly, “But I don’t think Carl will reveal that photo. After all, it is life and death to him.”
“Don’t be anxious. Even if we can’t get it, I have another way.”
“Fill me in.”
“The Global Group boasts a scanner called “compound eyes”, the one and only in the world. It has high accuracy. I believe with its accuracy, even such a vague photo can be restored to its original state.
“The Global Group...”
“Well...”
Cedric said with a smile, “As for Joseph, I’ll talk with him. He’ll definitely lend it to us.”
There was a knock on the door.
Cedric paused and asked. “Who?”
“Cedric, it’s me.”
It was Joseph’s voice outside the door. Cedric let out a sigh of relief, but Isabella’s heart sank.
Cedric put away his phone and went to open the door. “What a coincidence. I also have something to ask you.”
“What’s up?”
Joseph suddenly spotted Isabella in the room. His eyes narrowed and he snorted, “It seems that I came at the wrong time. I disturb your intimate time. So bad of me.”
Joseph looked at Isabella with a cold and unfriendly gaze.
“Don’t say that.”
Cedric turned around and saw Isabella’s dazed expression. He touched his forehead and smiled. “You did come at a bad time. Never mind. Just come in and have a seat. I have a favor to ask of you.”
“No need.”
Joseph turned around and left, “With an outsider here, I have nothing to say.”
Joseph left in a hurry.
“Wait! Joseph! Isabella is not an outsider!”
Cedric closed the door and said resignedly to Isabella, “This guy lost his temper again.”
Cedric talked to Isabella about the blueprint and went to visit Carl. Isabella returned to her room.
Isabella sighed.
She lay on the bed and closed her eyes. She felt a little tired.
She thought about Joseph’s intimidating look from time to time, Carl’s timeserving, her acting in front of Lukas, as well as the secret behind the blueprint...
Without the blueprint, it would be completely impossible to find out the truth about what happened before, wasn’t it?
Isabella thought, “Dad would be so poor if he was trapped to death.”
Isabella sighed softly and rolled over. “Damn!”
“Did you have sex with Cedric?”
A familiar and cold voice sounded beside her ears like a clap of thunder. Isabella jumped up from the bed and looked at Joseph in disbelief. “You! Why are you in my room?”
Joseph shrugged and said in disdain, “This is my room. You are lying on my bed.”
