Tempting My Rented Boyfriend - Chapter 203
Ch-202
Next day…
Cedric woke up when someone splashed water on his face. Opening his eyes, he saw Nathaira was crying sitting in the corner as she held the blanket closer to her body.
Cedric has a dazed look on his face as he looked around. Finally, his eyes fell on his father and Nathaira’s father. They both had angry expressions on their faces while Edward has a disappointed look on his face.
“What happened? Why I am here?” Cedric asked not remembering a single word.
“Brat! You took away a girl’s virginity even before she got married. And ruined her life. Now you are acting as if nothing happened! How dare you!?” Regan asked feeling frustrated.
Slowly… flashes of last night’s event came into his. Nathaira kissed him in the dining chair, then everything was blank to him. He didn’t even remember a single scene after that.
“Who will marry her after this? Stop scolding him. What shall I do with my daughter?” Griffin asked as he executed the plan as his daughter said.
“What do you want?” Regan asked still being obvious about what was about to come.
“Let’s fix their marriage,” Griffin said.
“Dad, please. Don’t trust her. She drugged me. I didn’t even drink alcohol!” Cedric tried to defend.
But no one listened to him, everyone was supporting Nathaira. He even tried to convince Edward but he didn’t even look at his face.
When he turned to look at Nathaira, she has a victorious smirk on her face which further irritated him. He wanted to choke her to death but he couldn’t.
“Get dressed!” Regan said as he stormed out of the room along with everyone. Nathaira was long gone from the room.
Again he got tricked by Nathaira.
Two months passed…
No matter what Nathaira did to please Cedric nothing worked. So she decided to control him with drugs. She and Oliver turned too close from the time, she asked for drugs to spike Cedric’s drink that fateful night.
That night, she mixed a kind of weird liquid in the bottle and handed them to him. That will make him imagine that she was the person he was thinking of. And it won’t allow them to remember a single thing that happened last night.
And it’s the same with Cedric. In fact, he doesn’t remember anything he did last night. He realized he fell into a trap set by her. How could he fall into her trap so easily?
Cedric was pissed off, he wasn’t even talking to anyone from Callan’s family. Edward tried to talk with him but he didn’t talk because when Cedric tried to talk with him, he would ask him to go there and here and talk there but he would see no one other than Nathaira.
He realized, his friend was taking up the role of matchmaker between his so-called fiancee and him. So, doesn’t want to give a damn to them and let them be.
He tried many ways to get his marriage called off. Cedric even made out with two women and let the information pass to Nathara but no matter what he did, she was hell-bent on marrying him.
Returning from the university he slumped on his couch. He has a hectic day. Just then his phone rang, he saw it was Nathaira. He threw his phone away. It slammed to the wall and broke into pieces.
Suddenly, feeling a headache was on his way, he decided to make a coffee for himself. He grounded a few coffee beans and added them into his cup. Also, he added some cream to his cup. Getting the cup along with him to the couch, he started drinking it sip by sip.
After finishing it, he kept the empty cup on the table as he leaned his head back to the couch. His thoughts went back from the time, he came to Arrowglen. He started taking drugs, became a womanizer, engaged to someone who doesn’t care about anything or anyone but herself. And even if he gets out of everything, he doesn’t know how to face Eleanor.
Will she hate him?
Would she even look at his face?
Will she accept him?
Suddenly he remembered Nathaira’s words, “if I can’t get you, no one should get you,” her words rang in his ears.
So… if she can’t get him, then no one should get him. That means… he was no longer present then… she would stop tormenting him and Eleanor.
He knew… if he doesn’t accept her or don’t marry her then… Nathaira would go after Eleanor.
He doesn’t want that.
Maybe his end would get everything back on track.
Yes! If he dies then everything would get back on track.
Little did Cedric doesn’t know was, Nathaira mixed drugs in his coffee beans which led him to think like a mad man and think everything was his fault. Nathaira gifted those coffee beans to Regan asking him to help her deliver them to Cedric, and he did thinking that these kinds of situations may help both of them get together.
But he doesn’t know that there was something wrong with it.
Cedric realized everything was his fault. So he went to his room, and sent a big message to his father before cutting his wrist.
In his message, he cites everything properly and clearly about his situation with Nathaira. That was then Regan got to know that his son was being honest. He quickly sped to his apartment and admitted him to the hospital. Then, he reinvestigated the drug thingy. Also, from the doctor’s report, he got to know his body has traces of drugs which made him like this.
Regan got the report from his men that Nathaira was the one who was behind it. He even got to know that Nathaira drugged him and was trapped him with marriage. Regan’s men found the man who sold her drugs and got this information.
Regan was so pissed at Nathaira to the point he sent her to jail. She stayed there for a month before she got bail. And that too the bail was given for some unknown person.
