Inside the minimalistic black–and–white study, Cedrick accepted Nico’s cigarette and promptly held it under his nose to smell it.

If someone else had done the same thing, chances were they’d look rather creepy and repulsive.

Cedrick, however, did it with such effortless elegance that it seemed like he was enjoying a glass of champagne.

After inhaling the tobacco fragrance for almost a minute, he tossed the cigarette into the trash can without hesitation.

Nico, who had already prepared his lighter, widened his eyes in shock when he saw the unlit cigarette being thrown away.

“Boss… Aren’t you going to smoke it?”

Cedrick put his hand to his forehead and sighed. “If I do, the cigarette smell will linger on my clothes and around the study. Given how sharp she is, I won’t be able to hide it from her. Besides, smoking isn’t healthy… Taking a whiff of the tobacco is good enough.”

Upon hearing that, Nico nodded thoughtfully.

“By the way, remember to take the trash out when you leave.”

“Yes, Boss.”

Whether it was a form of self–consolation or not, Cedrick had to admit he felt much better after smelling the cigarette.

Say, this method is ingenious! Not only do I get a kick out of it, but I can also easily hide it from Gwendolyn. I should do this more often!

“This cigarette brand smells pretty good. Nico, buy a few packs for me when you’re free this afternoon and hide them in one of the drawers.”

“In the villa?” Nico replied, mouth agape as he drew a sharp breath. “You sure are gutsy, Boss! You’re knowingly breaking the law on Ms. Gwendolyn’s doorstep!”

My goodness… He’s playing with fire!

Cedrick calmly rubbed his temples. “Gwenny’s busy in the day and doesn’t look through the drawers much when she’s home. Just stash the cigarettes away in a secluded corner. She won’t find them.”
