In the sterile confines of the hospital room at the laboratory, Gwendolyn spent the night alongside Cedrick.

By dawn, she took Cedrick back to the villa.

In accordance with Joshua’s advice, she drafted a health plan for Cedrick.

It mainly outlined that he refrained from smoking, drinking, and engaging in physical intimacy with Gwendolyn. In addition, Cedrick should follow a diet abundant in fruits and vegetables and a daily regimen of moderate exercise.

Cedrick watched her enthusiastic manner and merely nodded, accepting her arrangements without a word.

Once home, Gwendolyn headed to the kitchen to prepare some oatmeal.

After they were done with breakfast, she said, “I have something on today and must return to the Harris residence. In the meantime, don’t head to Jenson Group if you have nothing important to attend to. If any paperwork requires your attention, have Nico bring it over.”

Surprised, Cedrick asked, “Since you’re returning to the Harris residence, do you need me to accompany you?”

“No need,” Gwendolyn replied.

She served him another bowl of oatmeal, concealing the unease in her eyes.

“You just had an episode of angina yesterday. You’re still weak, so don’t go around wandering. Rest for a few days and gather your strength,” Gwendolyn said.

Cedrick was a little concerned, especially when he noticed her change of clothes upon returning to their villa.

Gwendolyn usually favored dresses. However, she had changed into a pair of sturdy jeans paired with a crisp white t–shirt. The attire accentuated her tall, slender figure. It was a simple and clean look.

Something about her sudden change of style felt off to Cedrick.

“It seems like your eldest brother is still in Salinsburgh. I’m not comfortable with you going back alone,” Cedrick uttered.

Gwendolyn chuckled. “Asher dotes on me the most. What could he possibly do to me?”

The man fell silent, a quiet melancholy settling over him.

Gwendolyn planted a kiss on his forehead and soothingly ran her fingers through his hair. “Don’t worry. I won’t let him know that we’ve slept together previously. Just stay put at home. I’ll return once I’ve finished my business, all right?”

“Okay,” he mumbled,
