Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 551

Let’s start over again, and I’ll listen to you this time, okay?”

Reaching a consensus, the two women geared up to start a new match.

Just then, Cedrick brought his fist up to his mouth and cleared his throat loudly.

Treyton eyed him before immediately following suit at an even louder volume.

The two women begrudgingly raised their heads, only to see that their men were there to pick them up.

“Why have you come, Hubby?” Gwendolyn asked.

Cedrick stared at her, his handsome face as black as thunder. His voice was gentle, yet his words were disapproving. “Look at the time now. Were you planning to stay out if I hadn’t come to look for you, Darling?”

Closing the game interface, Gwendolyn belatedly took a look at the time. It was only then that she realized she had been so engrossed in gaming that she forgot the time, and it was already past nine o’clock.

Nighttime was the peak of her manic episodes. As such, it was indeed too dangerous for her to remain outside. Furthermore, she had not told her family about her condition because she did not want to worry them.

If we’d continued gaming for another few hours, Jennifer would’ve probably been scared witless when she inadvertently witnessed my manic episode!

She put her phone away before turning to Jennifer beside her solemnly. “Are you feeling better now, Jennifer?”

In response, Jennifer bobbed her head. “I’m really happy to have gamed with you tonight, Gwendolyn. But…”

The smile on her face gradually faded. Furtively stealing a peek at Treyton, who was a stone’s throw away, she fiddled with the hem of her shirt uneasily.

Not Painful But Utterly Humiliating

As a matter of fact, Treyton was infuriated. She’s a defenseless girl, yet the came to such a deserted place in the middle of the night. I’d be haunted by regret if the ran into scoundrels! Verily, she doesn’t have any safety consciousness!

His fury seemingly blazed even hotter the further he pondered upon the matter. Taking a few strides forward, he clutched Jennifer’s wrist tightly. “Come. Don’t intrude on Cedrick and Gwendolyn here. Let’s go home.”

The man’s grip was strong, and Jennifer could clearly sense his wrath. Unfortunately, she could not break free from his restraint and could only be dragged away. She glanced back over her shoulder at Gwendolyn in terror, beseeching the latter for help.

Gwendolyn understood her plea for help, but it was their personal matter at the end of the day, so it was inappropriate for her to interfere. She could only try her best by urging, “Treyton, Jennifer’s kind of slow in academic things. Be more patient and encourage her often. Don’t demoralize her. Also, talk things out at home.”

Treyton grunted in acquiescence, his voice low and grim. “I know. I’ll do so.”
