The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 627 Hubby And Wifey Time

Cedrick’s gaze lowered, and he fell silent when David was brought up.

Gwendolyn didn’t urge him to speak.

Two of them stood by the entrance of the ancestral hall. One looked at the ground, while the other stared straight ahead blatantly.

After contemplating briefly, Cedrick asked casually, “What would you do as the head of the family if this happens within the Harris family?”

Gwendolyn turned around, left the ancestral hall, and answered softly, “But this is a Jenson family affair.”

Cedrick hurriedly caught up to her and reached for her hand. “I know you and Triss are childhood best friends. That’s why I want to know your thoughts.”

“Is my opinion that important?” Gwendolyn couldn’t understand. “This is a Jenson family affair, and you’re the head of the family. I’ll be crossing the line if I ask too much.”

“Your feelings are the most important to me. How can it be considered crossing the line if my wife meddles in the Jenson family affair?”

Cedrick tightened his grip on her hand, feeling the warmth of their intertwined fingers.

He met her gaze and said earnestly, “I know the punishment Uncle David and his family received was too cruel and that you’re unhappy about it because you think they don’t deserve such a grave punishment. The warning Yael received this time was a firm deterrence for them. I’ll call off the security standing guard outside Uncle David’s house and end his punishment if that’s what you want.”“

Gwendolyn was taken aback as she silently listened to him speak.

After deliberating for a while, she reached up and stroked Cedrick’s forehead to check if he was having a fever.

“Are you not feeling well? You’re not someone who makes such a hasty decision.”

She thought it was absurd that he would decide David’s and his family’s punishment based on her feelings and opinion.

It feels like I married a different person.

Cedrick’s head drooped further at her question. His grip clenched tighter around her hand as he pulled her to his front.

With his arms wrapped around her, he buried his face into the curve of her neck, intentionally obscuring the slightly reddish rims of his eyes from feeling upset. He sucked in a deep breath, inhaling her scent to soothe his forlornness.

“Hubby, what’s wrong?” Gwendolyn felt he was acting weird that day.
