No longer a pushover (Noelle and Cedric) novel Chapter 377

Anastasia hadn't expected this. She stared at Cedric with complicated emotions swirling in her eyes.

After a while, she said, "You know that it's impossible for the two of you. With that accident…"

No one could forget the death of their parents.

Cedric bent down in front of Anastasia.

She said, "If you feel bad, you can compensate her for it. This is your best option."

With a lowered voice, he said, "I know."

However, he couldn't control it. His heart had sparked for her, and eventually he fell for her.

Sighing, Anastasia said, "It looks like she's a good girl. That's why you fell for her, right?"

"Grandma, you have no idea how bad she's been doing. All her brothers ignored her and oppressed her."

He paused before continuing, "I thought I'd been logical enough. I thought I'd be logical enough to not get into a relationship. However, I couldn't stop myself from developing feelings for her."

Anastasia knew Cedric. If he hadn't fallen for her, he would not have told her about it. She was wise enough to pick up on the nuances.

He knew what he wanted. He had fallen for Noelle. Since he liked her, he would do his best to make it happen. This was why he came home.

Anastasia hit him and asked, "Hey, what are you trying to trick me into doing?"

"Grandma, I don't need anything from you, but I need your support."

She considered it for a moment and said, "At the end of the day, the accident wasn't your doing. It was just that, an accident. She was unlucky. I don't understand. The accident wasn't that serious. Why did it blow up all of a sudden?"

If only her parents hadn't died.

Cedric said hoarsely, "I haven't told her anything."

He didn't know whether he had the right to. He was on the brink of backing away, yet he hesitated.
