Chapter 350 Get Married.

Charles froze for a moment, not knowing what to say. I’ve done so much, but you’re saying I shouldn’t expect anything in return? Why shouldn’t I expect her to reciprocate? It doesn’t make sense to me

He released Nico, cleaned his hand with a wet towel, and responded indifferently. “Her feelings toward me don’t matter. She is meant to be mine, and as we spend more time together, she’ll inevitably be moved and marry me!”

After tossing away the wet towel, he glanced at the people beside him. “Keep hitting him. Show him our hospitality.”

After issuing the command, Charles turned and walked away. Soon after, the chilling sound of a whip cutting through flesh echoed once more, causing a shudder to run through anyone who heard it.

Charles showed no expression and left the dungeon without looking back.

The next morning. Gwendolyn was awakened by the roaring sound of cars outside her window.

Feeling groggy, she disregarded the sounds and rolled over, attempting to go back to sleep.

In the past, she would not have been able to sleep at such a critical moment, but the physical burden brought by her pregnancy was beyond her control.

After sleeping for another five minutes, someone knocked on her room door.

Gwendolyn’s drowsiness disappeared in an instant. She sat up on the bed the called out through the door. “Are you serious?”

Charles’ voice carried a cheerful tone, and a smile played on his lips. “I mean it. I’ll wait for you in the living hall downstairs. Come down once you’re ready.”

Gwendolyn promptly got out of bed and efficiently started getting ready.

Regardless of Charles’ intentions, the ability to see Nico and ensure his safety was always a favorable

outcome.

She descended the stairs without makeup, showcasing her natural beauty. The white fox fur coat she wore further enhanced her innocent and pure appearance.
