The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

“All right, I understand,” Cedrick replied calmly. This was inevitable, but if Gwenny finds out, she will definitely be upset for a while…

With that in mind, he immediately instructed Nico, “Call Summer and ask her to accompany Gwenny for the prenatal check-up. Don’t tell Gwenny anything else.”

“Yes,” Nico responded promptly as he took out his phone to message Summer.

Within two minutes, Summer arrived from the garage.

She was Nico’s little sidekick. These past few days, while Nico was busy with various investigations, Summer had been insisting on tagging along, patiently waiting in the car until he finished his tasks.

As soon as Summer arrived, Cedrick’s expression turned solemn. He instructed her, “If Gwenny asks about my whereabouts later, tell her that I have to attend to an urgent matter at Jenson Group.”

“All right,” Summer replied.

With the arrangements made, Cedrick immediately left with Nico.

They returned to the Jenson residence in no time.

Throughout the journey, Cedrick remained deep in thought, pondering over something silently.

When they reached the entrance of the ancestral hall, he once again instructed Nico, “After we come out of the ancestral hall, don’t send me back to Harrick Villa. Go to your villa and apply some medicine first.”

Medicine?

Nico’s heart trembled at the words.

So, Cedrick had expected this. Once he enters the ancestral hall today, there will be no turning back, right?

As Nico stood in a daze, Cedrick had already entered the ancestral hall.

The former gazed at the unwelcoming entrance and suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of dread. It was an eerie place.

Feeling apprehensive about Cedrick’s safety, he quietly sent a message to Summer before cautiously stepping inside.

Meanwhile, Summer, who was waiting in the hospital waiting room, immediately barged into the examination room when she received the message.
