Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 600 Nico Is A Fan Of Cedrick

Cedrick trod lightly, carefully following the two men who had their arms around each other’s shoulders.

Nico answered Neville’s question seriously, “Four hours is indeed hard. I didn’t think I could do it. I basically forced myself to hold on. Mr. Jenson’s really harsh when it comes to punishing people.”

Neville clicked his tongue and pinched Nico’s arm, making him grimace and hiss in pain.

Cedrick’s face fell as he continued following them.

Nico continued, “Mr. Jenson might be ruthless, but he’s really kind. When he noticed I was struggling during the handstand, he reduced the duration to two hours and even poured a glass of water for me.”

The more he recounted, the more emotional he got. “He actually cared for me. D*mn. I was so moved that I almost teared up. I’ll never be able to forget that glass of water he gave me. It tasted so sweet!”

Neville eyed Nico as if the latter was a weirdo. “Surely you’re exaggerating.”

“You’ve got no idea. As long as Mr. Jenson doesn’t deduct our salary, he’s the best boss in the whole world. No one can argue with me on this.”

“Fine. Mr. Jenson’s the best,” Neville went along with him half–heartedly.

The thought of Cedrick pouring him a glass of water yesterday excited Nico to no end. He looked so overjoyed that the words “Mr. Jenson’s biggest fan” were basically written all over his face.

Cedrick was baffled.

I just poured him a glass of water, that’s all. Does he have to be this touched? Was I too stern in the past?

Just as he was thinking about it, a police officer passed by the corridor and spotted the trio from afar. Immediately, the officer saluted and greeted each one of them respectfully, “Hello, Mr. Jenson, Nico, Neville!”

Nico and Neville stopped dead in their tracks, blinking in confusion.

Mr. Jenson? Mr. Jenson’s here, too?

Neville drew his hand back from Nico’s shoulder, and the two turned around dubiously to find Cedrick standing a distance away from them.
