After some time, Gwendolyn shook her wrist, trying to alleviate the soreness that had settled in. She had never realized that taking a bath could be so exhausting.

She was also completely soaked even though Cedrick was supposed to be the one taking a bath.

Despite her frustration, Gwendolyn swallowed it down and assisted Cedrick in getting out of the bathtub.

Once she dried the water from his body, she led him to the dry tiled floor and tossed the bathrobe at him. “Put it on yourself!”

Cedrick stood still and refused to reach out to take the robe. The robe slipped from his face and fell to the ground.

“I can’t move my arms, and my hands are in pain,” he uttered. I can’t dress myself!

Gwendolyn glared at his feeble state and ground her teeth in frustration. She was about to explode in rage. Who’s pushing the limits now, huh?

Confronted by Cedrick’s persistent self–pity and his attempts to push her limits, Gwendolyn gave him a stern gaze. “You’ve got one minute to pick up your robe, put it on immediately, and fetch me a clean one. If you dare to exceed the time limit, I’ll make sure you experience the consequences of the rules I established before. And I might consider not feeding you medicine anymore!”

Cedrick swallowed the fluid lodged in his throat. His knees began to ache, and his hands throbbed with increased pain. She might not want to feed me medicine anymore? No! I can’t accept that!

While cleaning herself, Gwendolyn started counting down. “You have fifty–eight seconds left!”

Cedrick’s body tensed up as he swiftly retrieved the robe, and deftly secured it around himself. He then opened the door, slipped on his slippers, and hurried to the adjacent wardrobe to fetch a clean robe for

her.

“Ten, nine, eight…” Gwendolyn’s countdown echoed in the bathroom. She sounded like an emotionless timekeeping machine.

As the countdown reached the final second, Cedrick accurately hung the robe on the bathroom rack.

Gwendolyn glanced at him and playfully remarked, “Well, it seems you do have the potential to meet my expectations. Not bad, Ceddy!”

Cedrick kept mum.
