Tempting My Rented Boyfriend - Chapter 195
Ch-196
If it was previous times, Eleanor would have believed his every word. But not now.
“Cedric Emerson, Can you please stop your lies? I am tired of them,” Eleanor said.
“Eleanor, Do I look like I am lying to you this second? Just look at me and say,” Cedric asked with his eyes full of emotions.
Eleanor’s heart says that he wasn’t lying. Indeed he was saying the truth. His eyes were screaming saying that whatever he was saying was true. But eyes can be deceptive. She doesn’t want to believe him or his words. And she chose otherwise.
“Cedric, please leave. I am tired,” Eleanor said with an expressionless face.
“Eleanor, how will you believe me? What shall I do to make you believe me?” he asked feeling frustrated.
“Do you love me?” Eleanor asked.
Cedric doesn’t know why she asked such a question at an odd time like this. But he badly wanted to reply and he did.
“I do! And I love you! All the things I said to you previously because I am a dick!” he admitted.
“Then prove your love,” Eleanor said.
“What do you want me to do?” he asked with hope in his eyes.
Eleanor’s insides were twisting in pain. She wanted to hug him and comfort him but she doesn’t want to give in right now.
“Leave me,” she said.
“Eleanor, trust me once,” he said.
“Why?” she asked. Cedric just gave a pleading look to her.
“Please,” he pleaded again.
“Leave dammit! Leave me alone!” she yelled.
“Eleanor, why don’t you understand me?” Cedric asked feeling frustrated.
Eleanor pushed Cedric from her and sat up straight. She took her shirt and wore it in front of his eyes which were observing her every move.
“You are asking me to understand you, right?” she asked as she sat in front of him.
His eyes looked at her. He wanted to listen to her and also wants her to listen to him.
“Cedric, tell me will accept if someone wants to sleep with you when she doesn’t feel like having sex? But… seeing you are angry. I let you have your way till I am hurt. But did you give a damn to me! You just left me alone for the sake of your so-called business instead of staying with me in the hospital. I expected that you would at least feel something after getting me hurt. I even expected you would be the first person that I would see after I was awake. But where were you?
“You were nowhere. Did you come and explain things to me? Nope. I didn’t ask to. Because I am afraid you would be hurt. Even though it hurt me to not know things, I was willing to take the hurt. But all you did was taking as granted.
“You left that day… and returned after a few days. And was punished by your father with a so-called punishment, winning my sympathy. Then in the meantime, god knows what you did. You even stopped calling me. Maybe that’s when you reconciled with your long-lost love. And when you returned the first thing you did was hurt me.
“Not once, but again and again. You called me a whore! A freaking whore! And even now… you are turned on and wanted me. And yeah… the stupid me gave in to my hormones. And when I refused you… you started weaving this story.
“Okay, let’s say I believed your story. What you will do now? Will you have your way with me tonight? And mock me tomorrow morning? Saying that I am a whore who moaned under like this was the end of the world, and I am so good on the bed? I don’t want to do anything with you.
“Just leave me alone. I don’t even want to see your face!!” Eleanor yelled at him.
Cedric didn’t expect this kind of hard reaction from her. Indeed, every word she uttered was true. He realized, he was always thinking about himself and from his point of view only. But not about her and her point of view. He took his T-shirt and left for the study.
He had his way with her before despite her unwillingness. He broke his first promise that he would never let her get hurt.
He didn’t explain the things that Eleanor deserved to know. There Cedric broke his second promise that there would be no secrets between them.
Cedric wasn’t there in the hospital and didn’t take care of her. Here he broke his third promise that he would be with her in illness and healthy times.
Again when he went to alvonia, he hid things he didn’t explain things to her about the things that happened there. He broke his fourth promise that he would share his troubles with her and solve them together.
He hurt her and said things that no woman wanted to hear from the man they loved. There… he lost it. He didn’t even respect her. This was one of the main promises.
Again… when she wanted to tell him about the news of her pregnancy he asked her to abort it. Completely acting like a goon. Who in the world gave him the right to say those words? There… he broke his final promise. And the last string of their love. Eleanor no longer trusted him with anything.
And now… he just came and was arguing with her and then started making out with her. How could she take it? And he said I love you. There was a saying… don’t believe it when a man says I love you on the bed. And even she doesn’t want to believe it right now!
Cedric can scram to anywhere from her life. She won’t give a damn right now! All she needs right now was freedom from him!
She wanted to go away from this place and give a good life to her child and spend the rest of her life with her child. She was tired of this Cedric’s non-sense.
Eleanor doesn’t know when she was asleep but she slept like a baby after a lot of thinking.

Meanwhile….
Myna informed Valene about Eleanor’s absence. Eleanor’s phone wasn’t reachable. And she didn’t return from the office. Myna checked at the company, the site where the work was happening. But there was no single news. Finally, the driver who drove Eleanor to the site appeared in front of her and told her about her kidnap.
Myna was flustered and she doesn’t know what to do with the situation. The first person she thought about was Valene. She took her phone and called him.
“Hello, love. What a surprise?” Valene said mischievously. Indeed he was surprised that Myna called him on her own accord. Aria who was drinking tea raised her brow at Valene. She never saw him talking to someone like this.
“Did you miss me, Myna? Do you want to see me? Shall I come there?” he continued to tease her not knowing the situation.
Aria almost spat out her drink from her mouth. She didn’t expect her son to be such a… shameless man! Well, she has to thank Cedric for turning her son like him. Cedric was a shameless man. It was an open secret. Now… she was happy that because of Cedric’s influence her son found a woman and turned out like this. Or she thought so.
Anyways, she was happy that her son would be going to get married and she was glad he wasn’t gay. And she was glad to know he liked women. Maybe she should throw a party for him. She was genuinely happy for the first time after the divorce.
“Valene! Enough. Eleanor is kidnapped!” Myna said.
“What!?” Valene was surprised.
He never thought something would happen to Eleanor. He threw away his laptop and picked his coat still listening to her. Aria was shocked at the sudden turn of events. But said nothing as she knew her son love to work and thought it might be some work tension.
Valene called his guards and went to Zora’s mansion. He heard the story of what the driver said. And he could say that the driver was saying the truth. He just left Eleanor for one freaking day and she was kidnapped. Valene couldn’t believe that he became careless like this.
Informing Myna that he was on the way to Zora’s mansion. He called Regan and told him about the great deeds of Cedric. Regan wasn’t impressed by Cedric’s actions. He promised that he would tell Eleanor’s location to him in an hour.
Valene reached Zora’s mansion. “Valene! You came!” Myna dashed into his arms the moment she saw him enter the hall.
Valene didn’t expect this kind of gesture from Eleanor. Even though he was happy that she was receiving him positively, he was soon distracted by Eleanor’s thing.
“I informed uncle about Eleanor’s disappearance,” Myna said as she lowered her head. Eleanor was his daughter, so he needs to know.. And As he left Myna in her care, she shouldn’t disappoint him any further.
