The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 396

“Seriously?”

Cedrick let out an icy snort and directed a mocking and sharp look in her direction. “Are you offering yourself? Do you think you’re worthy of taking over her spot, though?”

Nico chimed in, “Yeah, right. Ms. Evelyn, what makes you think that way?”

Evelyn’s expression turned icy.

“Mr. Jenson, when Gwendolyn’s identity as the illegitimate daughter becomes public and Jenson Group’s share prices potentially plummet, I hope you will remain steadfast in your decision to marry her.”

A smug grin played on her lips as her eyes twinkled with amusement. She spun on her heels and stalked away.

Nico scoffed at the sight of her getting into the car. “Did she forget she’s also an illegitimate child? Why did I let her get under my skin? I shouldn’t have snapped at her like that. Summer is only nineteen like her but is so much more likable and adorable even when she’s scheming. Why is Evelyn so repulsive?”

After cursing Evelyn for a long time, Nico still failed to calm down.

Cedrick allowed him to vent his frustrations but didn’t forget to make the necessary arrangements. “Remember to take care of Gwenny and Pierre’s DNA test. Make sure nothing goes wrong.”

“Got it. Don’t worry, Cedrick!” Nico agreed and immediately made his way to the visiting room.

After relaying that order, Cedrick picked Gwendolyn up and carefully carried her to the backseat of the car.

Nico had left to carry out his order, but as Cedrick came here with the intention of picking Gwendolyn up, he got his driver to come along.

During the entire journey, Cedrick held Gwendolyn in one arm while using his other hand to work on his laptop. He seemed to be busy with work.

On the other hand, Gwendolyn had opened her eyes the moment she entered the car.
