Chapter 422:
Daniela, ever the serious one, took a moment to examine him more closely upon hearing his question. Under the
cinema's flickering lights, Cedric’s features were sharply cast. His face showed a harrowing handsomeness, the
kind that sharpened when he pursed his lips but softened into reliability and warmth when he relaxed.
His skin was smooth, his nose distinguished, and his lips appeared soft.
Daniela pressed her lips together as Cedric turned his head to smile at her. His smile was tender, his eyes
glinting with a bright spark that reflected Daniela’s image back to her.
“You are indeed quite handsome,” she responded.
Cedric’s charm was distinct from Alexander's polished grace or the gentle charm often attributed to more
delicate features. He was strong and composed, yet gentle, and his smile had an irresistible allure.

with warmth.
“Remember, | am yours now.”
Daniela’s heart skipped a beat. At that moment, her eyes caught the small beauty mark near Cedric’s eye,
prompting her to whisper, “Cedric, thank you.”
“For what do you thank me?” Cedric asked.
“You dashed into a burning building for me, and you were there when | collapsed in the hospital, carryingto
safety,” Daniela said.
“Thank you for always being my protector.”

Cedric stroked Daniela’s hair, responding, “It's nothing; you are my wife, after all.”
“Yes, | am now your wife,” Daniela whispered back.
As the movie played on, the lead character's dialogue was engaging, yet Daniela found herself more captivated
by Cedric. Minutes later, Cedric squeezed her hand a bit tighter, leaned back, and murmured, “Honey, aside from
my looks, | excel in many other areas too.”
Daniela, puzzled by his implication, asked, “In what ways?”
A subtle smile played on Cedric’s lips, but he remained silent. In the cinema's darkness, his gaze met Daniela’s
intensely.
As the credits rolled, Daniela was still captivated by Cedric’s deep, meaningful look, which seemed to convey
words he hadn't spoken. Daniela’s heart thudded wildly in her chest.
Throughout the ride home, Daniela remained silent until they arrived. Cedric then turned to her with a grin.
“Your heart's pounding, honey. We might let our little secret slip if it continues like this.”
Daniela cast a helpless glance at Cedric. Cedric chuckled, bending slightly to meet Daniela’s wide-eyed stare.
Moments later, their heartbeats resounded together, filling the quiet night like distant drums.

“No one will suspect a thing.”
It seemed both had momentarily lost their composure.
Upon reaching the house, Daniela chose not to enter immediately with Cedric. She walked around outside to
calm herself before she opened the door. Lillian looked up as she entered.
“Hey, Daniela, why are you alone? Cedric just headed to his room. Didn't you both return together?”
“No, we cback separately,” Daniela replied as she closed the door.
