Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 518 Fulfilling The Bet

Gwendolyn harrumphed haughtily. “We shall see, then.“

Her eyes met with Cedrick’s. They held each other’s gazes that both blazed with a desire to subjugate the other.

Astoria was a long distance away from Chanara. Even by plane, a trip took more than twenty hours.

With Cedrick keeping her company, Gwendolyn was not at all lonely during her trip this time.

“You came as well, Mr. Jenson? What an honor! I’m greatly honored to receive the wealthiest woman in Chanaea and the most authoritative figure in the Federal Bureau of Investigation in concert!”

Holding Gwendolyn’s hand, Cedrick flashed her a friendly smile. “My wife is here on a business trip, so I’m acting as her lackey this time, keeping her company these two days.”

Queena darted her gaze back and forth between them in envy. “Your relationship with your wife is so close that it invites envy, Mr. Jenson.”
