The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 240

After giving it some thought, Gwendolyn came up with a mischievous idea and said in a reluctant tone, “I’m glad to see that you’re sleeping so soundly, Ceddy. You know what? I think it’s better if I head back to the Harris residence. Nico can help look after you instead. I’ll come see you in a few days, okay?”

Right as Gwendolyn was about to move his head off her lap, Cedrick wrapped his arms around her waist and nuzzled his head against her chest.

“A burly man like Nico can’t possibly take good care of me. I want you, Gwenny…” he said in a somewhat childish and adorable voice.

Gwendolyn had to suppress her urge to laugh as she pushed his head away. “That simply won’t do. I left all of my luggage back at the Harris residence, so I need to head back.”

The next thing she knew, Cedrick sat bolt upright and gave Nico a call.

“I want you to go shopping at the mall tomorrow. Gwenny wears size S clothes and size thirty-four shoes. Oh, and buy all the pretty-looking jewelry you can find. I want all the closets in the villa filled with clothes, you hear me?” he said before hanging up the phone.

Cedrick then buried himself in Gwendolyn’s chest once again while she was still stunned.

Despite being a tall and sturdy man, he was so weak and vulnerable while injured that Gwendolyn could easily pin him down if she wanted to.

Unbeknownst to her, Cedrick’s lips had curled into a gleeful grin.

Don’t even think about leaving after moving in with me!

Oblivious to his scheme, Gwendolyn was still thinking about the instructions he gave Nico earlier and asked curiously, “How did you know that I wear size S clothes?”

“By hugging you.”

Um, okay… Fair enough, I guess. I’m skinny, so anyone could easily figure that out if they put some effort into it. However…

Gwendolyn’s expression slid into a frown as she pressed on, “What about my shoe size, then?”
