The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 378

“Okay. Let’s head back.” Gwendolyn did not ask any questions and intended to talk after getting back.

She supported Cedrick’s arm and helped him limp away from Mount Tranquil.

Gwendolyn instantly undressed him once they were back at Harrick Villa.

Gwendolyn did not see it at first, but she noticed that Cedrick had changed into a new suit in Kieran’s old room after she took off his clothes. Cedrick’s suit was a style that Kieran liked, and it was also brand-new.

Moreover, he smelled nice. Did he take a bath in Kieran’s bathroom?

Gwendolyn’s heart skipped a beat, and she became more confused about what her brothers had done to Cedrick.

“Where did he hit you? Why do you not have any bruises? Kieran wouldn’t have performed acupuncture on you or poisoned you, would he?

Cedrick was utterly worn out and in a miserable state. He let her have her way, as he was too helpless to stop her.

After experiencing the excruciating labor pain for an hour and a half, Cedrick used every last bit of his strength to copy the book, Precepts for Men, while enduring the pain.

He finally understood why it was necessary for women to rest in bed for a month after giving birth.

It was simply too painful.

However, Cedrick had to walk home out of his pride as a man.

Gwendolyn examined his whole body but could not find any injuries. Yet, Cedrick appeared worn out and weak.

Already worried sick, Gwendolyn gently tapped on his cheek to jolt him awake.

“Don’t go to sleep yet, Ceddy. What exactly happened?” she asked.

The corners of Cedrick’s mouth twitched faintly, and he clasped her hand. He muttered, “He just… let me experience labor pain beforehand.”

Gwendolyn’s face fell. “Kieran got you to endure the labor pain and also write Precepts for Men?”
