Wooing My Ex-Wife

Chapter 424

Cedrick raised his head and looked at her, his eyes sparkling with delight.

After a moment, he lowered his gaze and said, “Wouldn’t it be better not to do it now? Getting the marriage certificate at this critical juncture might invite gossip and unnecessary trouble for you.”

“We can have a private wedding first and keep it a secret from others,” she suggested. “Besides, our lives should be lived for ourselves, not to please others.”

After Cedrick contemplated for a while, his eyes lit up with joy again.

“You’re right, Gwenny. We should live our lives on our own terms.”

He flashed a mischievous smile and continued, “Tomorrow is a good day. Shall we go and register our marriage early in the morning?”

Gwendolyn playfully tapped his forehead. “All right, as you wish.”

Cedrick stood before her, his heart filled with excitement about their upcoming official union. He hugged her leg and rested his head against her thigh, reveling in their intimacy.

In return, Gwendolyn tenderly caressed the back of his head, allowing him to nuzzle against her.

Suddenly, her phone on the bedside table rang.

The caller was Ezra.

She had an ominous feeling about receiving calls in the wee hours of the night.

When the call connected, it wasn’t Ezra’s voice that greeted her.

A man’s voice, tinged with a hint of breathlessness as if he had just completed a workout, spoke on the line.

“Hello, Ms. Harris. I work for Boss, and my codename is Midnight. I tried to call him multiple times, but he didn’t pick up. I had no choice but to use your bodyguard’s phone to contact you and Boss.”

Gwendolyn had put the call on speaker mode, allowing Cedrick to hear their conversation.

He stood up to retrieve his own phone, only to discover that it had been set to silent mode. There were over a dozen missed calls from Midnight.
