Wooing My Ex-Wife

Gwendolyn didn’t look back.

Narrowing her eyes, she uttered in a frigid tone, “I’m afraid one life isn’t enough.

Perhaps I’ll consider it if you can die up to a thousand times.

” After saying that, she didn’t stick around and went to her room upstairs, locking the door.

She threw away the robe that had been touched by Charles and took out a new one from the wardrobe, hanging it on the coat stand before going to bed.

Nonetheless, she couldn’t fall asleep.

As she shut her eyes, images of the past emerged in her mind.

She began to recall her happy childhood memories with Charles.

Gwendolyn remembered how she used to admire and look up to him as well as the way she called his name affectionately.

Surprisingly, she found herself feeling sorry for a despicable jerk like Charles and wondered if it was because of her pregnancy that she had become more compassionate and sentimental.

Burying her head under the covers, she forced herself to stop thinking about the past she shared with Charles.

I should instead think about how much Cedrick has suffered for the past six months because of him! As her thoughts were a jumbled mess, Gwendolyn heard the sound of a car driving away and assumed that it was Charles leaving.

She finally felt more at ease.

Soon, exhaustion overtook her, lulling her into a deep sleep.

Meanwhile, in Salinsburgh of Chanaea, the five-day deadline had passed.

Early in the morning, Yael arrived at the conference hall that Cedrick had arranged in advance.

Xander couldn’t come along this time as he had been heavily injured a few days ago.

Apart from a few highly-respected elders of the Jenson family, Yael also brought some of the directors from the Jenson Group.

From afar, the large group of people emanated an intimidating and imposing aura.

Soon after, Craig and his subordinates from the Federal Bureau of Investigation arrived at the conference hall too.

The men who were clad in military uniforms stood tall and sturdy, instantly overshadowing Yael and the rest.

Although Yael felt somewhat displeased, he considered them allies and still stepped forward to greet them amicably.
