Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Being a light and skinny girl, Summer could only dangle her legs relentlessly in the air. Alas, her efforts proved to be futile as she failed to escape the man’s monstrous grip.

Nico hurried over to the trio and rubbed his hand nervously as he explained in a timid tone, “Boss, I… was just joking around with her…”

Cedrick fixed his gaze on Nico and said with controlled anger, “Take your little companion away! If you mistreat her, causing her to seek refuge with Gwendolyn again, I shall see to it that you suffer the consequences under military law!”

“Please don’t! I won’t do it again!”

He even mentioned military law. It looks like he must really be angry. Nico cowered in the face of the man’s authority and obediently took Summer from Cedrick’s grasp, carrying her in his arms.

Summer pouted as she wrapped her arms around his neck. She glared at him and warned, “Did you hear that? I have someone backing me up now. If you dare to say you don’t want me again, Mr. Jenson will punish you with the whip!”

Both Nico and Cedrick were at a loss for words, while Gwendolyn cupped her hand over her lips and chuckled.

What a sly little fox. She took this opportunity to gain support. It seems like we’re pretty similar in some ways. Nico is a dummy toward romance. It looks like he’ll be under her thumb in the future.

Gwendolyn approached Nico and Summer and gently tapped the latter’s nose. She corrected the young girl, saying, “That’s not what the whip is used for. You should be careful with what you say. The way you put it makes it sound rather suggestive.”

“Suggestive? Are you referring to the romantic acts between couples?”

Summer pondered over it momentarily before glancing at Cedrick and Gwendolyn. A sly grin played on her lips as she said, “I heard Nico say that you’re more impressive than Mr. Jenson, Gwendolyn. In that case, do you punish Mr. Jenson with a whip as well?”

This time, it was Cedrick and Gwendolyn who were rendered speechless, while Nico tried his very best to avoid laughing out loud.

“Let’s go. Why can’t you keep your mouth shut? If you say any more, Boss will get angry and teach you a lesson!” With Summer in his arms, Nico walked to the car and placed her in the passenger seat.

At that, Gwendolyn’s lips curved into a resigned smile. She grabbed Cedrick’s hand and interlaced their fingers. “Ceddy, you’re always a good boy. I can’t bear to use the whip to punish you. Isn’t that right?”

Cedrick felt a lot calmer now. He nodded in satisfaction and followed her into the backseat of the car.
