Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 494 Enjoy Yourself

In response, Charles shook his head. “Don’t. It’ll rouse Charles’ suspicions. Besides, these are external wounds. I can endure the pain for a few days. Once I leave the interrogation room, I’ll have them treated properly.”

He seems to be holding on, as expected of someone who went through tough training before. Instead of insisting on Charles’ treatment, Cedrick said, “All right. In that case, I’ll leave a first-aid kit in the room so you can tend to your own wounds.”

Nodding, Charles recalled Gwendolyn and lowered his eyes. “Did Gwen ask you to rescue me?”

Glimpsing at him, Cedrick answered, “No. She’s resting at home because she is exhausted. Hence, she doesn’t know what happened to you yet.”

“Exhausted? Is she feeling unwell?” Charles promptly lifted his eyes in a panic.

Cedrick’s eyebrows furrowed imperceptibly while he stared at Charles. “No. It’s a private matter between a married couple. Do you have to ask about that?”

Realization dawned on Charles before he lowered his eyes again and tightened his fist. “How… How are you and Gwen doing this past year?”

Very good,” replied Cedrick.

Nico added, “Cedrick bequeathed her all of his assets, making her the richest woman in the city. In fact, he didn’t allow Gwendolyn to cook in the kitchen even once after they got married. Also, because Gwendolyn doesn’t like anyone else disturbing them, they don’t hire housekeepers. There was a time he was responsible for doing the chores, preparing the meals, tending to the babies, and even taking care of Gwendolyn during her postpartum confinement. While he wasn’t doing those, he handled matters related to Jenson Group and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Basically, he took care of everything inside and out of the house by himself. Later on, Gwendolyn hired a nanny to care for the babies because she pitied him.

Grinning, he continued, “I’m truly impressed by him. If it were me, I doubt I could’ve pulled it off as well

as he did.”

Charles listened to Nico’s words quietly and was relieved. “That’s good. Since you snatched her away from me, you should treat her as best as you can for the rest of your life. If you break her heart, I’ll do whatever it takes to seize her back.”

Upon hearing that, Cedrick scoffed coldly, “That’ll never happen. Besides, she was always my woman, while you were the one who tried to steal her away from me.”
