The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 664

The men waited awkwardly outside the door for nearly an hour before Cedrick finally emerged, descending the stairs at a leisurely pace. He exuded confidence with every step he took.

All eyes observed him curiously as if he were a rare treasure.

He nonchalantly adjusted the cuffs of his shirt, exuding a sense of regality and dignity. Every movement he made radiated an extraordinary air of refinement.

Jasper and the others from the Federal Bureau of Investigation stifled their chuckles. Cedrick was truly a sight to behold.

Married men are just a different breed. They’re just so self-assured!

Cedrick stopped by the front door and glanced at Channing who stood by the entrance. “Take good care of my wife. Make sure she eats well and sleeps well. If even a single strand of her hair is harmed, I’ll make sure both you and your wife will face the consequences.”

Channing’s breath hitched as he quietly cursed Cedrick’s notorious reputation for being ruthless. The rumors are indeed true. He just intensified the gravity of Gwendolyn’s threat tenfold.

Just the hostility in Cedrick’s eyes was enough to send a shiver down Channing’s spine. It was evident that Cedrick was serious about his threat.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Jenson. I assure you that I will never let any harm befall Mrs. Jenson, even if it means putting myself at risk,” Channing assured with determination.

Satisfied, Cedrick averted his gaze and silently led the remaining six members of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, including Jasper and the trained canine, out of the forest.

As soon as the men were out of sight, Channing immediately released the news of Gwendolyn’s kidnapping and declared his intention to kidnap Cedrick’s son as well in an attempt to take revenge on Cedrick’s entire family.

The news ignited a wave of excitement among the top players in the underworld. They were all thrilled by the development.

The underworld viewed their relationship with the Federal Bureau of Investigation like that of a predator and its prey.

Channing, a small fry, was bold enough to go against Cedrick, the long-time leader of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the biggest shark in the sea. Even if Channing were to fail, it was still an admirable effort.

However, while the entire underworld was buzzing with excitement over the news, the central figure of the story, Channing, arranged for housemaids and five-star chefs who were bound by strict confidentiality agreements, to serve them in the villa.
