The Ex and Her Riches

Valentino’s eyes were brimmed with tears, and his hand on Cedrick’s shoulder was trembling slightly. In a sorrowful tone, he said, “I was wrong. Out of all the sons and grandsons I have, I chose to sacrifice you. I’m sorry. Please don’t resent me, Ced…”

Cedrick also teared up a little as he kept mum. Over so many years, Grandpa has always been the elder I love and respect the most. I would never hate him. Even if Grandpa wants me to resign and let Xander take control of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, I still won’t resent him.

One month later, Benedict was still receiving conservative treatment in the laboratory. While he was so weak that all he could do was stay in bed, Zendaya had learned to run and call out names.

Early one morning, Charles arrived at Harrick Villa to bring Zendaya to the oceanarium.

After arriving at the oceanarium, Charles carried Zendaya to the dolphinarium to see dolphins.

Zendaya was thrilled and giggling merrily when she saw a dolphin swimming around in the water. Seeing that she was staring fixedly at the dolphin, Charles gave the staff a signal with his gaze. Immediately after, the staff beckoned the dolphin over.

In the next moment, the dolphin was seen swimming swiftly to the edge of the water and sticking its head up to Zendaya and Charles.

“Zendy, this is my birthday gift to you. Do you like it?” Charles asked.

Zendaya smiled brightly and reached out her tiny hand to the dolphin.

Charles guided her tiny hand so that she could touch the dolphin’s head.

The dolphin’s head was soft and smooth, and it was so cute that it could melt anyone’s heart.

The highly intelligent dolphin made Zendaya giggle even harder by tilting its head and rubbing its head against her palm.
