Chapter 220 She Gives Someone A Beating

Sherman felt wronged by the way Cedrick questioned him. To add to his displeasure, he even snatched Gwendolyn away from his arms.

“Are you suggesting that I drugged her, Mr. Jenson? I, Sherman Ferguson, will never do such a dirty thing. Gwendolyn was feeling down, so I was just accompanying her and drinking. Now that she’s drunk, I’m taking her back to rest.”He stepped forward, attempting to snatch Gwendolyn back, but Cedrick swiftly sidestepped and held her tightly in his arms.

“There’s no need to trouble you, Mr. Ferguson. I will take care of her.”

Sherman’s expression became grim. “Do you also have feelings for Gwendolyn, Mr. Jenson?”

“Yes.”

Sherman was annoyed.

Just when Maverick was finally gone, Cedrick had to come and block his way.

“It’s not very appropriate for you to be holding Gwendolyn so intimately, Mr. Jenson. Not to mention that she just came back to Salinsburgh. I don’t think she knows you well enough, but I have known her since we were very young. It’s better if you leave her to me.”

Sherman took a step forward to get Gwendolyn back but Nico halted him. “Mind your behavior, Mr. Ferguson. Ms. Gwendolyn is already engaged to Mr. Jenson. It is reasonable that he takes care of Ms. Gwendolyn.”

“Engaged?”

When did this happen? How did I not hear about any of this?

Sensing Sherman’s confusion, Nico explained, “Old Mr. Jenson personally went to the Harris residence to finalize the engagement last night. The news will be announced during Ms. Gwendolyn’s welcome party. I hope Mr. Ferguson realizes who is the outsider here.”

Sherman turned pale instantly. It never occur to him that the Jenson family would act so quickly and that Marcus would agree to it right away!

Now that Cedrick was Gwendolyn’s fiancé, he couldn’t gain the upper hand as her friend.

Seeing that Sherman was no longer blocking his way, Cedrick carried Gwendolyn in his arms and turned to leave.

Leaning on Cedrick’s broad chest, Gwendolyn caught a familiar whiff of tobacco smell. Instinctively, she tightened her grip on his neck as she murmured, “Don’t go. You just promised that you won’t leave me…”

Upon hearing that, Sherman grinned smugly. “Seems like Gwendolyn prefers going with me, Mr. Jenson.”

Cedrick stiffened as he looked down at the frunk Gwendolyn in his arms. She had an innocent look on her face despite being in that state and unaware.

Was Gwendolyn referring to Sherman this morning when she said she is in love with another man?
