Chapter 1806

Cedar hummed in reply, and he did not reprimand her at all. He would never blame her no matter what she did. Even if something terrible happened to her, he would only blame himself for not protecting her well. Isabelle recalled the scene earlier and praised Cedar. “Big Brother, you’re so handsome. You appeared in front of me like a hero. Unfortunately, Big Brother isn’t someone I can love.” She kept sighing, so Cedar asked, “Why is it unfortunate?” “Because you’re my Big Brother, and you can’t be someone I love.” Isabelle said that so naturally and confidently. Cedar turned his gaze to her and stared at her. He wanted to say something, but he still held back in the end. He would never take the risk to do something that he was unsure of. He managed to endure so many years, so it was not an issue to wait a year or two years more. He needed a long time to consider how he could lure her to his side. Cedar still did not want to ruin their good time together yet. That was right. Cedar already quietly made up his mind. It was right after Lucas contacted him. It was right after she hugged another man. He made up his mind after he realized she was unusually sensitive to his touch. He decided to tempt Isabelle. Eventually, she would become his, even if he was not the one she wanted. Even so, Cedar felt like he should do something for himself for once. It would be fine, even if it was just for once. However, how could he set out his plan? Cedar was not good at expressing himself, and he had a deep mind. With a character like his, how could he pursue another person? Besides, the one he desired was such an important person. Isabelle Schick. She was the Schick family’s only daughter. She was a little princess to him. She was the little princess that everyone loved and treasured. Meanwhile, what about him?! He was just the son whom the Schick family adopted… Besides, he was older than Isabelle by almost twelve years. Even if he was still at his prime as he was close to thirty, he was still a much older man to her. Cedar shut his eyes. Suddenly, a sense of frustration arose from the bottom of his heart. “Big Brother, why aren’t you saying anything?” Cedar asked coldly, “What do you want me to say?” Although Cedar was cold, Isabelle started to feel reliant on him. Perhaps, it was because Cedar saved her earlier. She began to rely on Cedar like how she always relied on Raphael. She started to treat him like a real family. Isabelle was shameless whenever she was with her family! She put her chin on his shoulder and stared at his face. She started to gossip around and said, “Big Brother, you’re so cold and cool. Even so, you’re still handsome like that! I’m sure plenty of girls adore you. Big Brother, you have all the girls to choose from, so why aren’t you in a relationship yet?” Cedar replied concisely, “I’m not interested.” “Big Brother, you’re really cold.” Cedar suddenly asked, “What about you?” Isabelle did not quite understand what did Cedar meant when he asked her that. After all, he was already aware that she always wanted to experience love. She wanted to be in a relationship, but she kept getting rejected. Even so, she already gave up her feelings for Nash. However, Cedar was still unaware of that yet. In that case, what kind of answer did Cedar want when he asked that? Isabelle asked obediently, “What about me?” “Do you like me?”
