The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 342 She Belongs To Him

Treyton felt a little guilty. In truth, he had tried calling Gwendolyn several times recently, but her phone was always switched off.

Because of this, Asher had gone to check up on her. In any case, I can’t tell Cedrick the truth since he’s about to undergo surgery. All I can do right note is to make up some stories and do my best to reassure him.

With that thought in mind, he said, “Kiddo’s fine. In fact, she just messaged me the day before, so focus on your surgery and don’t worry about anything else. At any rate, we should deal with Yael and Craig first. Im sure Kiddo will be all right.”

Cedrick did not loosen his hold on the other man’s arm and asked, “Gwenny sent you a message? What did she say?”

“Uh…” Treyton paused for a moment and replied, “She said that everything is fine on her end and asked us not to worry about her. She also expressed concern about your health… Anyway, you can read the message she sent yourself once your vision recovers, okay?”

In response, Cedrick fell silent and furrowed his brows.

The restlessness and uneasiness he was feeling did not dissipate in the slightest.

Taking advantage of the man’s momentary lapse of attention, Treyton pulled away and allowed the nurses to push Cedrick in.

Once the latter was inside, he sat and waited in the corridor.

Raising his head, Treyton trained his gaze at the red light of the operating room, all while thoughts about Gwendolyn swirled within his mind.

It has been seven days… Kiddo said that she would be back with the Super Antiviral within two weeks at the latest. Please be fine, Kiddo!

With Kieran personally performing the surgery, everything went smoothly, and the procedure was over in a little over three hours.

Still under the effects of anesthesia, Cedrick was soon wheeled into the observation ward.

Treyton followed along, staying by Cedrick’s side for the entire day as he remained unconscious. During that time, Jennifer came by twice to bring them meals.

Sensing that something was wrong, Treyton called for Kieran and asked, “Kieran, I don’t think it’s normal for a regular person to be unconscious for this long after anesthesia, right?”

Wearing a mask, Kieran continued to record Cedrick’s monitoring data while casually responding, “You’re talking about a normal person here. Cedrick has a virus in his body. Can he really be considered a normal person?”

Treyton fell silent at those words.

A moment later, he glanced at the bed where Cedrick lay unconscious and replied in a low voice, “Kieran, why do I have the feeling that you’re actually mocking him?”
