The parts of his arms and neck not covered by his sleeves were peppered with bruises. His skin was rough, and his beard was unkempt. Compared to the refined and sensual appearance he had once sported, he was like a completely different person.

If it wasn’t for that pair of uniquely blue eyes, Gwendolyn would not have recognized him.

gaze and picked up the phone.

Mirroring his actions, Gwendolyn brought the phone to her ear.

“Long time no see, Gwen. You look surprised. Have you forgotten me already?‘

When he saw Gwendolyn make a move to put down the phone, he hurriedly added, “Okay, okay! I’ll get to the point.” He narrowed his eyes, his smile becoming twisted and strange. In a raspy voice, he said, “Gwen, although I’m in prison right now, I know better than anyone else that your current fiancé, Cedrick, is actually your former husband from Fairlake. He’s your beloved pet, am I right?”

Although Gwendolyn smiled coldly, she was slightly taken aback by his comment. “This is news to me. Where did you hear that from?”

“What do you want for your information?” Gwendolyn swiftly calmed down and regained her composure.

Charles applauded. “Quick to catch on as usual. That’s the Gwen I love. It doesn’t take much effort to converse with you.”
