Chapter 268 Full Of Himself

The sky outside the window had turned pitch black.

A desk lamp inside the bedroom remained lit, casting a dim yellow light.

The back of Cedrick’s head faced the lamp, causing his face to be unclear and hidden in the shadows.

Nonetheless, Gwendolyn could sense his scorching gaze. She sat upright and slipped out of his arm. Cupping his cheeks with her hands, she uttered with utter seriousness, “Ceddy, I once thought I could let go of my love for you without hesitation, but ever since I almost lost you, I’ve fully understood

my feelings. I love you deeply the same way you love me. No matter how many times you ask this question in the future, my answer will stay the same. I love you.”

They locked gazes, and tears welled up in their eyes at the same time.

Cedrick suppressed his urge to cry and held her in his embrace so tightly that his arms trembled. My Gwenny said she loves me deeply too.

Although he would’ve preferred her to say she didn’t love him this time, hearing her speak so earnestly filled him with overwhelming emotion. I’m contented for life, having listened to this.

Sensing his tension, she gently patted his back to comfort him.

The hug lasted a long time, to the extent that Gwendolyn thought Cedrick had fallen asleep before he finally let go of her.

“It’s getting late. Let’s rest early.”

“Huh?” Gwendolyn was a little taken aback. He’s going to sleep at half–past nine? Did he come back just to get a hug?

Amidst her bafflement, Cedrick had already slipped under the covers.

For some reason, she found his behavior to be strange that night.

Gwendolyn followed suit, lying in the crook of his arm. She asked in a teasing tone, “Ceddy, we haven’t seen each other for several days. Now that you’re finally back tonight, shouldn’t we have a pre–sleep massage session?”

He shut his eyes, wearing a cold and indifferent expression that clearly indicated he was abstaining that night. He also didn’t respond to her question.

Gwendolyn felt frustrated. He’s acting so cold toward me upon returning after we’ve not seen each other for so many days? He doesn’t even have the desire to be intimate with me. Have I lost my charm?

As if to prove her doubts wrong, Gwendolyn slid her hand under the covers into his robe, gently teasing his abs and chest muscles.
