Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 623 He Is Indeed Ill

Anyhow, Yael would never walk away scot-free.

The outcome awaiting him could either be a lenient sentence or a severe one.

As long as Valentino refrained from intervening. Cedrick could resolve the matter the way he wanted.

Gwendolyn gently touched his stiffened face, sighing inwardly. “I understand this outcome must be unsettling for you. You can always confide in me. I’m all ears,”

Cedrick gently rubbed his cheek against her palm before holding her hand, lowering his head, and giving her hand a gentle peck.

He realized he should direct his anger solely at those deceitful individuals, sparing his beloved wife from its effects.

No matter how upset he felt, he would always maintain his gentle demeanor in front of Gwendolyn. “I’m not upset. I’ve thought through many things on the way back just now. I’ve always regarded Grandpa as my most respected family member. Even before I married you, I considered him the only family I had.”

Gwendolyn’s heart trembled as she asked softly, “How about now?”

I’ve come to realize that my perspective has been overly emotional. While I regarded him as the sole elder I respected in the family, he saw me as just one of his many grandsons. Despite his love for me, he also considers his other grandsons, granddaughters, and sons. It’s possible that I’m not even his favorite grandson, and his guilt towards me may stem from my parents’ tragedy.” Cedrick lowered his gaze, concealing the subtle melancholy in his eyes. His calm tone made it seem as if he were narrating an ordinary matter.

“I don’t hold him responsible because I realize it’s unfair to sacrifice one son for the sake of another. However, I cannot accept the fact that he planted spies within Federal Bureau of Investigation to monitor me. Even in moments of disagreement, he covertly contacts someone to send Xander away and hide him within the bureau,” he said.

Gwendolyn sighed. “So what are you going to do next?”

“I’ll weed out all the spies, eradicating any potential threats. Federal Bureau of Investigation will implement new regulations and undergo a reformation, establishing clear boundaries that prevent Grandpa from meddling in any cases in the bureau,” he declared with an icy tone.

With his gaze lowered, his expression turned frigid to the core. There’s no space for negotiation or compromise when it comes to the strategy for handling Yael. I won’t allow Grandpa any opportunity to intervene, even if he desires to.”

Gwendolyn was well aware of his temperament, so his choice came as no surprise at all.

Of course, she would wholeheartedly support any decision he made. “Go ahead and do what you want to do. The babies and I will always be on your side.”

Her words instantly brought his attention to an important matter. “Benny and Zendy are still at Grandpa’s house. Considering the present circumstances, it would be best to bring them back home and ensure their safety. Would you mind going to pick them up tonight?”
