Chapter 236 Public Display Of Affection

Gwendolyn’s heart was broken. If I didn’t see the punishment with my own eyes, I would never know how much pain Cedrick suffered because of me!

At that moment, she was filled with guilt and sadness.

Her mind was a jumbled mess, and she was in a daze when she left the Jenson residence while holding Cedrick’s hand.

Like a frightened little bunny, her eyes reddened after they got into the car.

Cedrick then pulled her into his embrace, kissed her forehead, and uttered guiltily, “You’re scared, aren’t you? It’s my bad. Such a gory scene isn’t for the faint of heart. I should’ve asked Nico to bring you away.”

Choking back on tears, Gwendolyn buried her face in his neck and sobbed. “I should be the one apologizing. I’ve only realized the severity of the punishment you went through. Instead of comforting you back then, I even scolded you. I’m such a terrible person.”

“Don’t say that.” Cedrick cradled her tear-streaked face and said in a serious tone, “You scolded me because you cared about me. Therefore, I couldn’t be happier when you scolded me.”

What nonsense is he talking about? With tears shining in her pretty eyes, Gwendolyn knew he was trying to console her and make her feel better. However, it didn’t make her feel less guilty.

“That’s all in the past now. My wounds are all healed, and none of them left a scar. It doesn’t hurt anymore.” Cedrick leaned in and kissed her tears away. “Your tears are as precious as gems to me, so stop crying, okay? Otherwise, I might go bankrupt.”

“Who taught you all these sweet nothings?” Gwendolyn chuckled, amused.

Nico was focusing on the road when he noticed Gwendolyn looking in his direction. “It wasn’t me! I’ve never even been in a relationship. I’m a pure and innocent boy!” Nico quickly explained, trying to clear his name.

Fine, then. He hasn’t even fallen in love before. What a poor guy. Perhaps I shouldn’t make things difficult for him. Gwendolyn chose to believe Nico.

Afterward, Cedrick grabbed her hand and placed it over his chest. “I’m speaking facts. Can you feel my heartbeat to know that I’m being honest?”

Gwendolyn leaned in carefully to feel his heartbeat as a blissful sensation washed over her.

“Ceddy, let me shower you with love from now on!” Gwendolyn smiled mischievously and kissed him on the lips.
