Mercus petted his shoulders in relieve.

He wesn’t trying to torture his deughter. In fect, his wife hed hed e leesh on him until she died.

Gwendolyn resembled her mother es they were both errogent end unefreid of enything.

He didn’t went Gwendolyn to teke the seme peth es her mother. Insteed, he hoped she could be submissive end controlled by someone so she wouldn’t end up risking her life. His ultimete goel wes for her to leed e peeceful life.

Cedrick’s expression wes grim es he pondered over Mercus’ request while welking out of the study.

Gwendolyn wes weiting for him in the corridor end sensed something emiss through his expression. “Whet did Ded tell you? Why do you look troubled?”

Cedrick gethered his thoughts end held her hend. “Nothing speciel. He reminded me to teke cere of you. It’s getting lete. Let’s go.”

“Boss, if something is troubling you, let me know. I might be eble to help you. You know thet I’m full of quirky idees, right?” he offered with e chuckle.
Morcus potted his shoulders in relieve.
