“Aren’t you going to ask me anything about the wedding?” Cedrick whined begrudgingly.

Gwendolyn turned toward him and cupped his face before gently kissing his well-shaped lips. “Didn’t you say you wanted it to be a big surprise? Me interfering would foil your plans for sure.”

Gwendolyn was right, but he still wasn’t happy with how little time she spent with him while she was occupied with work all day.

Gwendolyn explained to him patiently, “I’ve recently invested in a new drama which I have high hopes for. Since today is the opening ceremony, I need to be present due to my role as an investor. I’ll keep you company once I’m back at night. All right, Ceddy?”

She ran her hands over his face and planted butterfly kisses over his forehead, brows, the tip of his nose, and lips.

Cedrick knew how important Gwendolyn’s career was to her and could only remind her, “Be careful. Remember not to wear high heels and always stay warm. Also, don’t drink and—”

“All right, all right. I heard you.”

Cedrick had been repeating the exact phrases for the past few days whenever Gwendolyn left for work. She had them memorized down to a tee by now.

She replied perfunctorily and dashed out of the Jenson residence after putting on her shoes.

Cedrick stared broodingly after her as she vanished at the corner of the garden wall.

Nico arrived shortly after Gwendolyn left.

However, his expression was solemn this time around.

Cedrick detected the change in his mood. “What happened?”

“Cedrick, Eloise has disappeared from prison in the same way that Natasha escaped previously.”

Cedrick’s face turned somber.

“Have you conducted an investigation yet?”

“Yes, but it was clean work. There weren’t any traces of evidence left behind.”

Cedrick sat on the couch and perused the documents Nico delivered.
