The Ex and Her Riches

Everything was well taken care of during this trip to Fairlake.

Kieran didn’t leave. He chose to remain by Inez’s side as her secretary at Mossey Corporation in Fairlake.

Given how hard it was for him to love someone deeply and devote himself, Gwendolyn didn’t stop him.

On the plane back home, she rested her head against Cedrick’s shoulder and peered out at the sky full of clouds, summing up the recent marriages of the people around her.

“Nico and Summer will be announcing their engagement in two days, right? Then, Kieran and Inez will be registering their marriage next month. So, that leaves us with Treyton and Jennifer. I’m not sure how they’re doing, though. Treyton isn’t that clueless when it comes to love, so I wonder if he’s able to make Jennifer fall for him again.”

Cedrick tapped the woman’s nose dotingly. “This is between them, so let them handle it themselves.”

Gwendolyn nodded.

She couldn’t help but feel affected. If only Craig hadn’t tried to control Jennifer’s thoughts with that drug, she wouldn’t have lost her nerves and forgotten everything that’s happened over the past four years, including all her memories of Treyton. If it weren’t for Craig, she and Treyton would’ve long been married by now.

“I’ve been so busy lately that I haven’t checked in on Jennifer and the e-sports club. I heard there’s an international final tournament going on. I’ll find some time to drop by when we get back.”

Cedrick was visibly surprised. “Are you actually discussing your work schedule with me, Darling?”

Uh…

Gwendolyn was momentarily speechless, but she quickly responded with a grin, “Well, your opinions won’t change my schedule. I’m just telling you my plans out of respect for you as your wife.”

Cedrick didn’t know what to say.

Outside, the sun began to rise, dyeing the clouds pink.

“Look, Hubby! Aren’t these clouds the same color as what I did to you last night?” Gwendolyn asked impishly, pointing out the window.
