Female Novel
Chapter 233
He made himself seem like a piece of artwork that Gwendolyn had carefully and attentively completed.
Nico stared at him in shock. Cedrick’s gaze seemed to be saying… Look! My wife did this! Isn’t she
amazing?
Khaff! Khaff! “It looks wonderful!” Nico gulped before nodding and complimenting Cedrick. “Ms. Harris
is indeed impressive!”
Satisfied, Cedrick buttoned his gown to cover the love bites.
Seeing that Cedrick was in a good mood, Nico hurriedly tried to claim credit. “Boss, shouldn’t I get
some credit since you were able to enjoy yourself? Ms. Harris must’ve been touched by everything that
I told her. Is that enough for me to redeem myself?”
Nico was nervous. Previously, he was deducted two years’ worth of salary.
“You did well.”
Cedrick’s lips curved into a smile. He emanated an elegant yet arrogant aura as he said, “I’ll return the
previously deducted salary. On top of that, I’ll also give you a six-month bonus.”
Nico cheered inwardly. Ahhhh! Boss is the best! He’s the world’s kindest leader!
However, Nico was still worried about Cedrick’s condition.
“But, Boss, please don’t use such a dirty trick in the future. Although you knew beforehand that you
weren’t shot in the heart, your life will be in danger from losing so much blood.”
Cedrick sounded proud when he said that. It seemed like he was in a good mood.
Cedrick’s eyes darkened as he shot a look at Nico. “Are you saying there will be a next time? Are you
hoping that Gwenny and I will argue again?”
Nico turned pale with fear.
“Touch wood! I was just spouting nonsense. Boss, please don’t deduct my salary. You haven’t even
banked in the money…”
Sh*t! I take back what I said about the boss being the world’s kindest man! He’s so unpredictable,
temperamental, and unreasonable!
Cedrick could not see through Nico to discover the rage and curses the latter was thinking in his mind.
His expression turned hostile as he said, “Let’s get to business.”novelbin
Nico quickly regained his composure and straightened his back. “Tonight, Ms. Harris secretly brought
me to the Jenson residence and claimed some benefits from Mr. Xander for you.”
After knowing that Gwendolyn had not left, Cedrick’s expression softened. “What did she do?”
“She…” Nico paused momentarily as he tried to find the right words to say. “She stabbed a knife
through Mr. Xander’s chest and tied him up before pouring itching powder all over him. She was quite
vicious with her act!”
Cedrick furrowed his brows into a frown. His tone was icy as he replied, “She even poured the powder
onto his private parts?”
“No! Of course not! I helped her do that!”
Nico hurried to wave his hand, denying Cedrick’s claim. He tried to please the latter by buttering up to
him and said, “Boss, you have such a nice figure. How could Ms. Harris lay her eyes on a skinny man
like Mr. Xander?”
Cedrick scoffed but lost the frown on his lips when he heard that.
Nico continued, “However, this isn’t a small matter since Mr. Yael is not one to back down from a threat.
He definitely won’t let this slide. I’m sure he’ll throw a fit tomorrow morning.”
“What are you afraid of? Let them cause trouble if that’s what they want, but allow them to only do it in
the ancestral hall at the Jenson residence. Send some people to stand guard. Don’t allow any of them
to make a scene at the Harris residence.”
“Yes, Boss.”
“All right. Run along now. I’ll go back and accompany Gwenny.”
Cedrick waved his hand to dismiss Nico. Without waiting for the latter to respond, he returned to the
room.
Nico stared at Cedrick’s retreating figure and tutted.
My, my… Boss is in such a good mood after he got laid.
Cedrick disliked having a female nurse change his IV drip. Hence, a male nurse entered the room the
next morning with a stainless-steel medical tray.
When the nurse pushed open the door, he was greeted by a shocking scene.
Cedrick, who wore a hospital gown, was sitting beside the bed and carefully feeding Gwendolyn. She
had just woken up and was still in bed.
The nurse was confused.
Who the heck is the actual patient?
He stood rooted to the ground, dumbfounded. He stared at Cedrick’s large and muscular back and was
impressed by the latter’s adoration for Gwendolyn.
This is a master class level of spoiling one’s wife!
Cedrick could not be bothered if anyone saw them. The only thing on his mind was that Gwendolyn
was tired from their activities at night and needed to replenish her energy.
Besides, it had taken him much effort to win back his sweetheart. It was only natural that he would spoil
her.
He was going to pour all his love and attention onto her so that she would never leave him. He wanted
to make sure he spoiled her so much that she would not be able to handle her daily affairs.
On the other hand, Gwendolyn thought differently. She stopped Cedrick from continuing to feed her
when she noticed the male nurse standing at the door. “Are you here to change his IV drip? Come
over.”
The nurse carefully brought the tray over. Cedrick instinctively held out his left hand to let the nurse
insert the needle.
Gwendolyn was about to get out of bed and let Cedrick sit in a more comfortable position to receive the
IV drip.
As soon as she got up, Cedrick placed a hand on her shoulder and pushed her back down. He fondly
said, “You worked hard last night. Lie down a little longer. Is your waist sore? I’ll help you massage it
later.”
Gwendolyn immediately flushed a bright red.
There’s still an outsider here! How can he say something so shameless and misleading?
“B*gger off!”
Gwendolyn gently pushed his chest as her face got redder in embarrassment. In the end, she pulled
the blanket over her head and hid herself.
How cute. Cedrick’s lips tugged into a grin as he stared at her.
In the next second, his gaze shifted to the thousand-watt “light bulb” beside him.
He glared at the male nurse and coldly said, “Hurry up.”
“Y-Yes, Mr. Jenson.”
The nurse quickly changed the IV drip and left the room. Cedrick glanced at Gwendolyn, who was still
under the blanket. His right hand disobediently reached into the blanket and gently massaged her
slender waist.
“Are you feeling better from the massage? Now you know how hard it is to be a man.”
His deep voice was magnetic.
Still hidden under the blanket, she remained silent yet inwardly agreed to Cedrick’s words. Those few
hours last night almost broke her waist. Until now, her legs were still trembling from how weak she was.
However, women who sought sexual pleasure could not lose to their male other halves.
Gwendolyn lifted the blanket and struggled to sit up. Not admitting defeat, she pouted and exclaimed,
“Oh, hush! Wait until you get better! I’ll make sure you beg me to stop! Besides, I was very fierce last
night!”
Cedrick’s smile widened as he reached out to pull her close to him. He lightly rubbed his nose against
hers and acted coy.
“Well, then… If you’re that fierce, why don’t you finish breakfast, and we can have some dessert? I
want more…”
Gwendolyn reached up and pushed his face away. “You shameless b*stard! Can’t you be more aware
of the surroundings?”
Cedrick was unfazed by her cursing as he leaned forward and snuggled against her chest.
If I were shameful, I wouldn’t have been able to chase after you. I would’ve been brutally murdered and
burned to ashes instead!
Gwendolyn could not help thinking that he was really pushing his luck. She grumpily ruffled his hair
before smoothing it down. She repeated her actions and laughed as she had her fun.
The two were messing around when someone suddenly knocked on the door.
In walked Yael’s bodyguard, Charlie Yandell. He solemnly said, “Mr. Jenson, Mr. Xander was injured
last night. Ms. Harris seems to be involved in that incident. She’s your fiancée, so naturally, you’re
deemed her accomplice. I’ll have to ask you to please make a trip to the ancestral hall.”
Cedrick did not reply. As though he had not heard what Charlie said, he remained silent in Gwendolyn’s
arms.
On the other hand, Gwendolyn’s expression turned grim as she glared at Charlie. “Are you blind? Can’t
you see that Ceddy is injured badly? How dare Xander sends his lackey to invite Ceddy to the
ancestral hall? Is he courting death? Besides, who’s the leader of the Jenson family right now? Is this
the attitude a subordinate should have when talking to the head of the family?”
