“You just had an episode of angina yesterday. You’re still weak, so don’t go around wandering. Rest for a few days and gather your strength,” Gwendolyn said.

Cedrick was a little concerned, especially when he noticed her change of clothes upon returning to their villa.

Gwendolyn chuckled. “Asher dotes on me the most. What could he possibly do to me?”
