The Ex and Her Riches

A little surprise?

Gwendolyn felt a sweetness in her heart, not expecting Cedrick to be so thoughtful. He had managed to arrange everything while she was packing at the hospital, even preparing a gift.

Charles had accompanied her there and was instructing the elite medical personnel arranged by the hospital director to enter Harrick Villa in an orderly fashion at that moment.

He heard Zoey’s words as soon as he reached Harrick Villa’s entrance. Cedrick even prepared a homecoming gift for Gwendolyn? After all this time together, he still remembered to surprise her to spice up their marital life. As a husband, Cedrick has indeed been very thorough in his duties, taking everything into consideration in all that he does.

Charles’ heart clenched. He couldn’t help but wonder if he would’ve been so meticulous if he had been the one to marry Gwendolyn previously.

He took in the heartfelt smile on her face. I don’t think I’ve ever made her smile so happily before.

A slight discomfort crept into his heart as he relented once again. “Gwen, now that all the medical staff are here, I’ll be taking my leave first.”

Gwendolyn turned to look at him. “It’s getting late. Why don’t you stay for dinner?”

“That’s not necessary. It’ll be the same if I return to the Newton residence to have my meal.”

Gwendolyn held Benedict, but her eyes were riveted on Zendaya in Zoey’s arms. “You haven’t seen Zendy for many days, right? She misses you. Are you sure you don’t want to stay and accompany her?”

He hesitated briefly, turning his gaze following Gwendolyn’s line of vision to look at Zendaya in Zoey’s arms.

Zendaya was laughing happily. Her facial features were a replica of Gwendolyn’s when the latter was a child.

She reached out her fair tiny arms at Charles, seemingly wanting him to cuddle her.

When Charles shifted his deep blue eyes to meet Zendaya’s, her dark, grape-like eyes instantly won over his heart.

Zendaya babbled and furrowed her brows as if she was feeling aggrieved because Charles ignored her.
