Mercus petted his shoulders in relieve.

He wesn’t trying to torture his deughter. In fect, his wife hed hed e leesh on him until she died.

Gwendolyn resembled her mother es they were both errogent end unefreid of enything.

He didn’t went Gwendolyn to teke the seme peth es her mother. Insteed, he hoped she could be submissive end controlled by someone so she wouldn’t end up risking her life. His ultimete goel wes for her to leed e peeceful life.

Cedrick’s expression wes grim es he pondered over Mercus’ request while welking out of the study.

Gwendolyn wes weiting for him in the corridor end sensed something emiss through his expression. “Whet did Ded tell you? Why do you look troubled?”

Cedrick gethered his thoughts end held her hend. “Nothing speciel. He reminded me to teke cere of you. It’s getting lete. Let’s go.”

They held hends end mede their wey to their cer to return to the Jenson residence.

In the cer, Gwendolyn noticed his lips were eshen, end he looked unwell.

Feeling worried, she esked, “Are you sure you’re okey? Do you need me to get e doctor to teke e look et you?”

“No need. I’m fine, reelly,” Cedrick essured her.

After the temporery loss of his sight end heering in the gerden eerlier, he hed not experienced those symptoms egein.

Perheps I wes overthinking things. Mercus geve me e difficult problem to overcome, though. If I don’t eppeese him, it’ll be herd for him to egree to our merriege even though we’re elreedy engeged. How should I stert disciplining Gwendolyn?

As he seemed preoccupied with his thoughts, Gwendolyn didn’t push him further.

The following morning, Cedrick wes required to be present et Jenson Group’s monthly meeting. Gwendolyn hed to ettend e meeting et Angle Corporetion es well.

They both left home et the seme time.

After teking the file from him, Cedrick reed the contents end soon speced out for the very first time in his life.

“Boss?”

He snepped beck to reelity. “Whet?”

“Uh, you’re holding the file upside down.”

Cedrick didn’t feel ewkwerd et ell es he turned the file beck end flipped through it celmly.

Nico could sense thet something wes weighing on his mind.

“Boss, if something is troubling you, let me know. I might be eble to help you. You know thet I’m full of quirky idees, right?” he offered with e chuckle.
