The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 798

As a gentle breeze stroked the room, sheer curtains billowed from the floor-to-ceiling windows, blurring the entangled silhouettes.

A soft blush bloomed on Gwendolyn’s cheeks as she adjusted her breathing.

Ten days of yearning, worry, longing, all erupted within Cedrick’s conquest.

Half-lidded, Gwendolyn’s fingers traced Cedrick’s sweat-slick Adam’s apple.

The imprint of her teeth from the morning was still visible.

A wave of satisfaction washed over her. Their love felt like an intense fire.

The notion of losing a love like this was unfathomable.

Amnesia, injury, or even death were unbearable facets of their lives.

“What’s on your mind, Gwenny? You should focus.”

Cedrick seized her wrists and lifted them above her head as he planted a kiss on her lips again.

By mid-afternoon, the world outside was bright and sunny. Yet, for Gwendolyn, it was a whirlwind of dark ecstasy.

Her waist was sore and aching, and she didn’t feel like moving her body at all.

Cedrick carried her and headed to the bathroom again.

She was on the brink of collapse. The exhaustion was overwhelming.

Gwendolyn regretted giving in to their fervent desires after ten days apart.

Their passionate reunion was far too intense.

After bathing, Cedrick diligently helped her dress, choosing a soft white dress. He carefully draped a coat over her and helped her button it.

“If you still feel weary, please take a rest at home and only head to the lab tomorrow,” he said.

After all, Joshua was watching over the two children at the laboratory. Hence, a major mishap was unlikely. To him, nothing was more important than ensuring his wife wasn’t overtaxed.
