Chapter 267 Do You Still Love Me Nico paused and didn’t continue as he noticed the sudden furrow of Cedrick’s brow and the grim look in his eyes.

“This matter about the virus has to be kept a secret.

You’re not allowed to tell her at all!” “Understood.

” Nico was still worried nonetheless.

“But Boss, even if you keep it from her now, she’ll still be gutted to learn of your death five months later!” “I know.

Let me figure it out.

” When Cedrick lowered his eyes in dejection, the twitch in his eyelashes made it seem as if he was hiding something.

Nico immediately recognized the sad dilemma his boss was going through.

As it was already late, Nico took his leave and left Cedrick in the lab to rest.

Deep into the quiet night, the palm leaves outside rustled with the wind, heralding the arrival of a drizzle.

Tilting his head to the side, Cedrick looked through the window at the raindrops outside thoughtfully.

The proud expression he always wore was replaced by a complicated one.

It was then that he heard a message notification on his phone.

When he unlocked it to check, he realized it was from Gwendolyn.

Gwendolyn: Ceddy, how’s your sleep at the border? Gwendolyn: I heard the ultra–violet rays there are particularly strong.

Would you be coming back with a bronze- tanned complexion? When I see you, can I call you Bronzy then? Haha.

The message elicited a smile from Cedrick.

Right before his eyes, he could see the image of Gwendolyn talking to him.

The smile on her face made her look particularly adorable.

Suddenly, he felt the urge to hug her and never let go for the rest of his life.

Thereafter, another message from Gwendolyn arrived: Are you asleep? Is it inconvenient for you to reply over there? Gwendolyn: Wait, is there even a signal? In that case, I won’t bother you anymore.

Good night! After that message, Gwendolyn’s chat window stopped popping up.

Cedrick subsequently ran his fingers across the screen to stroke the words that she had sent.
