Wooing My Ex-Wife

Chapter 217 Someone She Likes Gwendolyn believed what she said was beyond reproachable and highly reasonable.

She figured Cedrick, as a member of the wealthy and conservative Jenson family and the current head of the household, naturally placed great faith in such superstitions.

Wearing a sincere look, she waited quietly for Cedrick’s response.

Cedrick, leaning back in his chair, wiped off the coffee stain on his lips, regaining his usual dignified poise.

“Ms. Harris, a priest once read my fortune as well.

He told me I have a prosperous and resilient destiny which is particularly good at countering a jinxed destiny like yours.

It seems we are a perfect match for one another.

” Gwendolyn was momentarily rendered speechless.

She continued smiling, but rage was actually boiling within her.

While contemplating whether she should utter the phrase “To h*ll with you!” at him, she gritted her teeth and spoke with a sweet voice.

“What a coincidence!” Cedrick nodded slightly, but he put down the coffee, not daring to take another sip.

Gwendolyn was reluctant to leave without accomplishing her goal, so she made up a worse excuse.

“To be honest, I’m sure my father lied to you about something.

During one intimate session with my ex-husband, I accidentally passed out and was admitted to the hospital.

The doctor mentioned my health was poor and that I was infertile.

I probably won’t be able to carry any children in this lifetime.

My ex-husband divorced me because he disdained my inability to conceive.

” Cedrick, who was sitting with his back to her, discreetly took a deep breath.

He felt relieved that he hadn’t continued drinking the coffee and that he didn’t have a heart condition.

Otherwise, he might suffer a heart attack on the spot.

Meanwhile, Gwendolyn kept up her pretense, adding in a regretful tone, “As the head of the household, it’s vital for you to ensure the continuity of your lineage, Mr. Jenson.

I truly cannot contribute to the Jenson family in this respect.

Therefore, we should annul this marriage.

Otherwise, I would feel guilty for becoming the Jenson family’s undoing.

” Not only is my destiny unfavorable, but I’m also infertile, and that implies a discordant sex life.
