Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Unable to withstand the force, Caesar stumbled backward. The corner of his lips was badly swollen, and blood was oozing out of it.

Gwendolyn was given a fright by the sudden turn of events. When her gaze fell upon the raging eyes of the perpetrator, an inexplicable sense of guilt crept into her.

“Ceddy, why are you here?”

The seething Cedrick locked gazes with her. “Were you planning to hide this from me if I hadn’t come?”

“Um… You’ve got the wrong idea. We were just having a meal.”

Just as she explained, Gwendolyn hurried over to examine Caesar. “Are you all right?”

Wiping the blood from his mouth, Caesar replied, “It hurts a little, but I’m fine.”

He had grown up pampered at home and had never been struck before. Little did he expect to end up being punched by Cedrick.

“I’m sorry. I’ll get Joanne to send you to the hospital for a check-up. I’ll take care of all your medical expenses and any losses you have suffered.”

Caesar rejected the offer. “Don’t worry about it. It’s no big deal.”

“I insist. As you’re a representative of Erihal, it’s necessary for me to apologize for what happened. This is a misunderstanding on Cedrick’s part. I’m sorry… Hey, what are you doing?”

Before she could finish, she felt her body suspended in mid-air. Cedrick had swept her off her feet and was carrying her to the Shelby Supercar parked by the side.

“Ceddy…”

With her hands wrapped around his neck, Gwendolyn saw his seething expression just as she wanted to tell him to put her down.

The rage within him was evident to her. She knew that he would throw a tantrum back at home if she didn’t assuage his anger by then.

With that thought in mind, Gwendolyn turned around to look at the stunned Caesar. “I’m sorry that we can’t have dinner tonight. I’ll have Joanne entertain you and give you another treat a few days later!”
