278 Cedric Saves Her


    Isabe knew that Peter was Cedric’s subordinate, but he was usually very polite. Hearing him speak in such a tone, Isabe was so scared that she took a step back.


    “Peter.”


    A gentle and pleasant voice sounded. Isabe turned her head and saw Cedric.


    He was dressed in a ck casual suit, and he was calm and gentle. He looked mature and refined. He said softly, “Don’t scare Isabe.”


    “Yes!”


    Peter immediately responded and whispered to the middle-aged woman, “Go away immediately.”


    The beautiful woman took a look at Cedric. She immediately ran in and closed the door.


    Cedric looked at Isabe and reached out his hand, “Isabe,e here.”


    Joey stood beside Cedric with his hands down. Cedric looked at her gently. Even so, Isabe felt like he was blending in with the darkness of the night. It was a bit hard for her to see through him.


    .....


    He looked fierce. Contrary to Joseph’s arrogance, his fierceness was emitted from the inside out, which made others did not dare to resist.


    Isabe was confused why Cedric would give her such an impression.


    “Cedric ...” Isabe said with a low voice. She did not dare to go over.


    Seeing that she was not moving, Cedric walked over and looked down at her, “It is sote. Why are you here alone?”


    Isabe did not know why she was so afraid to look at Cedric. She felt that although his tone was very gentle, he revealed a stern aura. She did not dare to speak the truth, “I came out to y and went backte. The dormitory is closed.”


    “Where did you go?”


    “Where did you go after separating from me?” Cedric asked.


    Isabe bit her lips, not knowing how to reply. She stammered, “I... I went to a nearby bar.”


    Cedric looked at Isabe and gently pinched her chin to let her look at him, “Do you want to know what the result would be if I didn’t see you here today?”


    Isabe looked up at Cedric’s deep eyes and did not dare to move. He was even more frightening than the hooligans. Isabe said, “That sister just now is pretty good...”


    “She is the famous procuress in this area. She has her share in all the barbers and foot therapy shops here that involve in the prostitution.”


    Cedric lowered his head and approached Isabe. He looked deeply at her eyes, “Moreover, not only does she like to buy women from human traffickers, but she also likes to go out to find those girls who are drunk or ran away from home. She tied them up in the room and let dozens of men take turns to teach them how to serve men. Until those girls start begging for mercy and have no self, then they will have to help her do the prostitution.”


    Isabe was frightened by Cedric and continuously retreated. He forced her into a corner and her body mmed into the wall. She stared at Cedric in a daze.


    Cedric ced his hand on the wall behind her head. He bent down and wrapped her in the space between him and the wall. He lowered his head and whispered, “Do you know how pity they are? Many of them are younger than you. They are only in their teens. But they will never see their family and friends. They will no longer have freedom...”


    The thrilling and despairing night had already made Isabe mentally and physically exhausted. She had thought that she finally met the kind-hearted middle-aged big sister, but unexpectedly...


    Isabe couldn’t bear it any longer. With fear and lingering fear, she burst into tears.


    Cedric was stunned and released her. His eyes flickered, “Sorry, I don’t mean to scare you. I just don’t want you toe to this ce again. It was really dangerous just now.”


    Cedric took out a handkerchief and wiped Isabe’s tears. Isabe bit her lips. Tears ran down her face. No matter how he wiped them, he could not wipe them clean.


    Cedric smiled and his gaze softened, “Don’t cry. In the future, you must note to this kind of ce alone sote, ok? Many things here are not as beautiful as you usually see. Where will you go, school? I’ll send you.”


    Isabe wiped away her tears and looked at Cedric with red eyes. She seemed to have made a decision, “Cedric, can you lend me 500?”


    Cedric was stunned, “Borrow money? Sure. But ... why do you want 500 now?”


    Isabe lowered her head, “I ran away from home. I want to stay in the hotel.”


    “Run away from home...” Cedric frowned, “The Smith’s...”


    “Not the Smith’s.”


    “My boyfriend doesn’t want to be with me anymore, so I decided to take advantage of the dark and windy night to leave him. I don’t want to be chased out tomorrow, I don’t want to lose face.” Isabe lowered her head and decided to be honest.


    She suddenly recalled that Joseph had hung up on her phone just now. She was sadder and cried again.


    Cedric clenched his fists and grabbed Isabe’s wrist, “Follow me.”


    “Where?” Isabe asked.


    “You have no ce to stay. Go to my house.” Cedric said.


    “Go to your house?”


    Isabe was stunned and quickly waved her hand, “No, it’s not good to be seen by uncle and aunt sote at night. Moreover, I will disturb them.”


    “I’m living alone.” Cedric pulled Isabe into the car.


    Isabe was stunned again, “Live alone ... No, that’s not good either...”


    “Why not?” Cedric also sat in and sized up Isabe, “Are you afraid that I will do something bad to you?”


    Isabe grinned awkwardly, “No ... I didn’t mean that...”


    “It doesn’t matter if you are.”


    Cedric rubbed Isabe’s head, “Girls should be wary of men whom they are not very familiar with. However, I will always respect you and won’t bully you. Do you understand?”


    “Yes.”


    Isabe was moved and nodded.


    The car arrived at the Golden Apartment, the most famous and luxurious apartmentplex in Peace City.


    Cedric lived on the 26th floor. The apartment was spacious and bright with luxurious and stylish decoration, and it was very fashionable and unique. It was very suitable for the identity and taste of Cedric as a designer.


    Cedric turned on the lights and let Isabe in. He then took out a pair of slippers from the shoe cab, “This should fit you.”


    “Yes.”


    Isabe took the slippers and she noticed that the slippers were for females.


    “Are you hungry? Do you need something to eat?” Cedric asked.


    “I’m not hungry. I’ve had dinner,” Isabe said.


    Cedric took off his coat and hung it on the hanger behind the door. Then he walked into the kitchen, “Do as you please. The bathroom is on your left. I’ll heat a ss of milk for you before you go to sleep.”


    Isabe followed him to the kitchen. When she saw Cedric skillfully opening the fridge to get something, she hurriedly said, “No need for milk. I’m not hungry.”


    Cedric smiled and said, “I want to drink milk, and will also heat a cup for you.”


    “Ok. Thank you.”


    Isabe went to the bathroom to wash her hands and face. When she came out, Cedric had already ced the milk on the table. There were also two fried eggs with a piece of ham.
