“No, please don’t…”

Cedrick kissed her on the neck and, with a weak voice, whispered in her ear, “I like hearing you call me Ceddy, Gwenny.”

Gwendolyn cradled his face with both hands and kissed his bloody lips. “Sure thing. I’ll keep calling you Ceddy for as long as you like.”

Cedrick’s pale lips curled into a satisfied smile when he heard that.

“Are you able to walk?” Gwendolyn asked while carefully adjusting her posture to support him.

“Yeah.”

Just like that, the two of them clung tightly to each other as they slowly made their way toward the car.

Nico was frozen in place as he watched the two of them from behind.

He couldn’t help but feel as though he was being a third wheel there.

After returning to the Jenson residence, Gwendolyn began removing Cedrick’s clothes the moment he lay on the bed.

“Take it easy, will you? Nico can handle this stuff.”

Gwendolyn shot him an annoyed glare. “What, are you afraid that I would ravage your body? Don’t worry; I’m not so desperate that I would take advantage of a severely-wounded man!”

“Oh? In that case, I guess I’m still not charming enough.”

Cedrick sounded a little disappointed when he said that.

Holding back her laughter, Gwendolyn smiled and gave him a peck on the lips as a reward.
