The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 811 The Last Supper 

After returning to the Federal Bureau of Investigation and taking a shower, Cedrick got back into his car. He changed his clothes and thoughtfully prepared an excuse for his change of attire.

If his wife were to ask, he would explain that he had an emotional argument with Joe. Then, he would it resulted in his coat getting dirty, and that was why he had to change his clothes.

The mere thought of returning home to rest in the arms of his sweet, soft wife cleared away all the gloom that had previously clouded his mind.

Gwendolyn sat worriedly by the bed, her fingers sliding across her phone. He hasn’t returned yet. Could it be that the matter with Joe is quite tricky? Or is it that Joe is up to his old tricks again?

After much hesitation, Gwendolyn decided to put down her phone, fearing she might interrupt his work.

After tossing and turning in bed for a while, she decided to step out for some fresh air. Just as she opened the door, she saw Cedrick’s happy face.

“Where are you going. Darling?” he asked.

Seeing him in a new set of clothes, Gwendolyn looked him up and down, then asked with a hint of suspicion, “What have you been up to?”

He recited his prepared excuse, and Gwendolyn didn’t question any further. She led him into the ward, and the two of them settled down to sleep together on the small accompanying bed at the side.

Amused by her daughter’s words, Gwendolyn stood up, carrying Zendaya to Benedict’s bed.

The mother and her two children lay under one blanket while Cedrick was pitifully left aside.
