The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 233 Giving Gwenny A Massage

Cedrick sounded proud when he said that. It seemed like he was in a good mood.

He made himself seem like a piece of artwork that Gwendolyn had carefully and attentively completed.

Nico stared at him in shock. Cedrick’s gaze seemed to be saying… Look! My wife did this! Isn’t she amazing?

Khaff! Khaff! “It looks wonderful!” Nico gulped before nodding and complimenting Cedrick. “Ms. Harris is indeed impressive!”

Satisfied, Cedrick buttoned his gown to cover the love bites.

Seeing that Cedrick was in a good mood, Nico hurriedly tried to claim credit. “Boss, shouldn’t I get some credit since you were able to enjoy yourself? Ms. Harris must’ve been touched by everything that I told her. Is that enough for me to redeem myself?”

Nico was nervous. Previously, he was deducted two years’ worth of salary.

“You did well.”

Cedrick’s lips curved into a smile. He emanated an elegant yet arrogant aura as he said, “I’ll return the previously deducted salary. On top of that, I’ll also give you a six-month bonus.”

Nico cheered inwardly. Ahhhh! Boss is the best! He’s the world’s kindest leader!

However, Nico was still worried about Cedrick’s condition.

“But, Boss, please don’t use such a dirty trick in the future. Although you knew beforehand that you weren’t shot in the heart, your life will be in danger from losing so much blood.”

Cedrick’s eyes darkened as he shot a look at Nico. “Are you saying there will be a next time? Are you hoping that Gwenny and I will argue again?”

Nico turned pale with fear.

“Touch wood! I was just spouting nonsense. Boss, please don’t deduct my salary. You haven’t even banked in the money…”

Sh*t! I take back what I said about the boss being the world’s kindest man! He’s so unpredictable, temperamental, and unreasonable!

Cedrick could not see through Nico to discover the rage and curses the latter was thinking in his mind. His expression turned hostile as he said, “Let’s get to business.”

Nico quickly regained his composure and straightened his back. “Tonight, Ms. Harris secretly brought me to the Jenson residence and claimed some benefits from Mr. Xander for you.”
