By the time the charity event had ended, the story of Cedric's speech was already all over all of the news sites and social media.
Some people praised him for calling out those that were insincere about donating. While there were still others that scolded him for not thinking about the implications of his actions to his company.
"Does it bother you?" Adrianna asked as they walked out of the venue.
"Of course not." Cedric said with a laugh. "They will criticize me no matter what I do, so I might as well think of the greater good rather than the public's opinion."
"This is our new life, isn't it?" Adrianna asked with a frown.
"Yes, this is what we have to give up." Cedric said with a nod. "I would have preferred to keep living our simple life, just you and me and our children."
"Children? You want more?" Adrianna asked Cedric, giving him a funny look.
