The Ex and Her Riches

Noticing Cedrick’s darkened expression, Nico hurriedly stepped forward and dragged Summer away.

He even pretended to be solemn and lectured Summer, “How many times have I told you? Gwendolyn is Cedrick’s precious, only to be admired and not touched. If you infuriate him, he’ll have me discipline you.”

Summer puffed her cheeks in anger, sulking silently.

Gwendolyn’s face turned red when she heard Nico saying she was Cedrick’s precious.

She waved Summer over to her side and said to Cedrick, “You can start preparing the meal now. Let Nico and Treyton assist you. I’ll bring Summer upstairs to meet the babies.”

Summer instantly brightened up, cheerily jogging back to Gwendolyn’s side. Subsequently, the two went upstairs together.

The three men in the living room exchanged glances. Nico and Treyton didn’t know how to cook at all, clueless even about how to clean the vegetables, let alone anything else.

The atmosphere swiftly turned a little awkward.

In the end, Treyton and Nico stood by the kitchen door, watching Cedrick prepare the food in a practiced manner.

Cedrick’s proportion was perfect. He had long legs and a lean waist. He rolled up his sleeves to reveal his strong and muscular arms. As he meticulously prepped the ingredients, his exquisite facial features were arranged into an exceptionally serious expression.

After observing him silently for a while, Treyton sincerely exclaimed, “Kiddo is truly amazing. When we were in Fairlake, I never imagined she could train you so well. If this scene is broadcast live, I believe those executives and directors of Jenson Group will be shocked to see their usually stern and aloof CEO put on a black apron and cook in the kitchen.”

Nico stifled a laugh with his fist. “I’m also curious about when your cooking skills improve so much, Cedrick. I guess Gwendolyn must’ve helped a lot in honing your skill.”

They were all men and closely acquainted with one another, so there was nothing to be embarrassed about.

Recalling the past, Cedrick smiled in resignation. “The first meal I cooked for Gwenny was charred pork ribs and overly-seasoned bacon.”

Treyton’s expression changed at once. “Did she actually eat that disaster of a meal?”

Cedrick laughed even more helplessly. “As astute as Gwenny is, how could she have possibly eaten it? She forced me to finish the food, almost making me vomit out my gastric acid.”

Nico and Treyton burst into a fit of unrestrained laughter.
