Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 258 Playing The Pity Card

The burning passion in the masked man’s eyes was conspicuous to Gwendolyn, making her heart skip a beat when she sensed the threatening vibe from him.

Disregarding the onlookers, Cedrick rubbed her nose with his nose tip endearingly and whispered to her, “Forgive me, Gwenny, but this is the only thing I can do. You refused to give me a chance to explain myself.”

entrance.

The journalists who had come to the gala graced by celebrities also jumped on the opportunity and snapped photos of the epic moment, which left many socialites green with envy.

“They’re so sweet! Mr. Jenson is so manly!”

“That’s so romantic. I wished I had a fiancé like Mr. Jenson!”

“Argh! I’m so jealous! I want a boyfriend like that!”

Meanwhile, having waited at the lounge for Gwendolyn to come out of the restroom for some time, Joaquin decided to go out to look for her and saw her kissing Cedrick.

He almost fainted as he stared at Gwendolyn’s lips being ravaged by the man.
