Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 543 Give Up On Everything

Cedrick did not respond for a while. It took him some time before he could register what Gwendolyn had aid.

In a flash, his eyelashes quivered uncontrollably, and his eyes reddened. “Do you have any idea what you’re saying?”

Gwendolyn nodded her head firmly. “I’m perfectly sober. I know what I’m saying. Divorce is good for us both. You’ll no longer get hurt, and I won’t have to live in guilt anymore.”

Tears welled up in Cedrick’s eyes as he plunged into extreme despair. “I tried all means to hide your condition from you because I’m worried you’ll make such a decision. I didn’t expect that you’ll really do this after finding out about it.”

His scarred back was trembling, and his gaze was laced with agony.

“Gwenny, this is the second time you suggested a divorce. I almost gave up my life in exchange for your change of mind the other time. How many lives do you want me to give up this time?”

Gwendolyn’s breath hitched. Following a deep sigh, she reached her hand out to his back, ready to continue applying the medicine for him.

Cedrick gloomily shifted away to avoid her touch.

At the sight of how heartbroken the man was, Gwendolyn softly explained, “Ceddy, that’s not what I meant. I don’t even know who I am when my illness acts up. I might even harm you!

She took a deep breath and tried to rephrase herself. “With a divorce, we’ll leave the kids in your custody. I’ll give up on everything and lock myself up to focus on treatment. If my condition deteriorates, you’ll help the kids find another kind and gentle mother to care for them. Don’t be bothered about me. But if I can fully recover from the illness, we’ll get back together. Do you think this works?”

“No.”

Cedrick rejected the idea decisively. “I won’t agree to a divorce. Who knows if you’ll fall in love with another man when you’re single again? I’m five years older than you. If you decide not to like me when I turn old and ugly, wouldn’t I have no more hopes of remarrying!”

Gwendolyn was rendered speechless.

There was resolution in the man’s dark orbs as he added, “From now on, there is no possibility of divorce.”

Gwendolyn heaved another sigh. “Ceddy_”

“Call me “Hubby,” Cedrick looked away, seething inwardly.

Gwendolyn was exasperated. “I really don’t want to hurt you. Like how you chose to forsake me and break your engagement with me so that I won’t be wallowing in sorrow back then when your life was in danger after getting infected with the 5404 RNA virus, I’m feeling the exact same way right now. Can you understand!”
