Rejected No More: I Am Way Out Of Your League, Darling!

Chapter 949:

Lillian immediately adopted a more serious tone. “It’s important!”

“Give me a moment; I’ll meet you downstairs,” Daniela said into the phone.

Cedric’s expression grew even more somber as he overheard.

After ending the call, Daniela leaned down and shared a lingering kiss with Cedric, leaving them both short of breath.

Cedric then rose to get dressed, his demeanor still one of mild annoyance. “You owe me one.”

Daniela agreed with a smile, nodding. “Absolutely.”

Cedric’s face brightened when he checked the time. “Let’s make this quick. Return straight here after your discussion downstairs!” However, neither of them found their way back upstairs that night.

Descending together, Daniela and Cedric usually encountered Lillian’s playful remarks during moments like these. But today was different.

A grave look marred Lillian’s face as she stared at Cedric.

“What’s going on?” Daniela inquired, sensing the tension.

Lillian silently extended her phone towards her. The screen was swamped with trending news, all centered around Cedric.

“Scandal Surrounds Cedric!”

“The Illusion of Cedric’s Loyalty Destroyed!”

“Cedric Caught with Three Women!”

“Revealed: Cedric’s Scandalous Video!”

“Cedric’s Passionate Night with the Graves Sisters!”

“The Deceit of Cedric Uncovered!”

“Cedric’s Betrayal of Daniela!”

Lillian said, “This isn’t just trending here; Cedric’s scandal has flooded the entire internet!”

Ryan chimed in, “This has gone beyond our borders. International platforms are also ablaze with condemnation of Cedric.”

Lillian faced Ryan, asking urgently, “Have you found anything conclusive? What does the technical analysis say about the authenticity of that so-called scandalous video?”

Setting the phone aside, Ryan looked towards Daniela and Cedric, sighing. “There’s no evidence of tampering. The video appears authentic.”

Shock registered on Lillian’s face.

Ryan’s expression turned to one of disbelief and resentment as he stared at Cedric.

Despite the tension, Daniela remained composed. “That isn’t Cedric in the video.”

Ryan, visibly upset, asked, “Daniela, how can you still defend him?”

Daniela calmly shook her head. “Check the video’s timestamp. It’s dated the day after the family banquet. Remember what was happening then?”

A moment of realization hit Lillian. “Yes, I recall now! That was the day Ryan suffered a bad bout of food poisoning, and Cedric was by his side the entire night.”noveldrama

Ryan was visibly shocked. He checked the timestamp closely. Indeed, it was true. “Who could possibly be in the video then?” he asked. Cedric was equally astonished, scrutinizing the video again and again. He fixated on the face that mirrored his own, rendered speechless for a considerable time.
