The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 605 Become Your Student

She sounded stern, but Asher could feel the underlying concern in her words, and it warmed his heart.

“Okay, I promise I won’t neglect it. By the time of your next visit, my wound may be starting to scab over.”

Gwendolyn bobbed her head. “I hope so.””

Holding the first-aid kit, she spun on her heels, strode out of the bedroom, and headed downstairs to return it to Sienna.

After doing that, she received a text from Cedrick.

Cedrick had driven up Mount Tranquil and was waiting outside Asher’s villa.

After bidding goodbye to Sienna, Gwendolyn walked out of the villa.

She got into the car and headed back to Harrick Villa with Cedrick.

Cedrick sensed her unhappiness as she seemed lost in thought with her head lowered. Unaware of the cause, he gently reached out and held her hand.

“Darling, a penny for your thoughts.”

Gwendolyn snapped back to reality and held his hand tightly. “It just occurred to me that Asher had changed a lot recently.”

Unlike his previous arrogant self, he had become sensitive, careful, and humbler.

He even shed tears in front of her today.

Cedrick’s lips formed a soft smile as he kept stealing glances at Gwendolyn, who was sitting in the passenger seat. His gaze was gentle as he asked, “Gwen, are you contemplating whether or not to forgive him?”

Gwendolyn said nothing.

They had been together for a long time, so Cedrick knew her well and could guess what was bothering

her.

He decided to mediate the situation for them.

“Darling, you are well aware that the true culprit here is Evelyn. She had been acting behind Asher’s back and exploiting his power for her own ends. While Asher may have made a mistake, his error lies in giving her such influence in the first place.”
