Wooing My Ex-Wife

Gwendolyn harrumphed haughtily. “We shall see, then.“

Her eyes met with Cedrick’s. They held each other’s gazes that both blazed with a desire to subjugate the other.

Astoria was a long distance away from Chanara. Even by plane, a trip took more than twenty hours.

With Cedrick keeping her company, Gwendolyn was not at all lonely during her trip this time.

They both leaned against the porthole, watching the first ray of sunlight together.

Then, they admired the impressive mountains and infinite clouds before enjoying the sunset in the evening.

Pointing at the clouds tinged with purple and red hues on the horizon, Gwendolyn smirked mischievously. and teased Cedrick.

“Do you like that color, Hubby? When we’ve gotten off the plane and checked into the hotel. I’ll replicate the same shade on your skin, okay?”

Cedrick wrapped his arms around her waist. “It must be painful for such a color to develop. Despite your talk, you’d never be able to bring yourself to do that to me.”

Tilting her head up, Gwendolyn kissed him lightly on the chin in lieu of her answer.

Indeed, she would never be able to bring herself to abuse him thus,

While their honeymoon in a foreign land resulted from the man’s disobedience, it was already too late to change anything. Thus, she hoped that her business trip this time would be a sweet and unforgettable memory.

Twenty-odd hours were long, but it passed in the blink of an eye because the couple was spending the time together harmoniously.

According to plan, they entered Astoria’s airspace. By the time they disembarked from the plane, it was already over nine o’clock at night.

There were few people at the airport. However, the party Neal Gray sent to pick them up at the airport. was already waiting there.

At the sight of Cedrick and Gwendolyn walking out of the arrival gate, Neal’s assistant, Queena, shrieked and trotted over to them enthusiastically.

“You came as well, Mr. Jenson? What an honor! I’m greatly honored to receive the wealthiest woman in Chanaea and the most authoritative figure in the Federal Bureau of Investigation in concert!”

Holding Gwendolyn’s hand, Cedrick flashed her a friendly smile. “My wife is here on a business trip, so I’m acting as her lackey this time, keeping her company these two days.”

Queena darted her gaze back and forth between them in envy. “Your relationship with your wife is so close that it invites envy, Mr. Jenson.”

Cedrick seemed to be well-pleased with that compliment. At no point in time did he drop his hold on Gwendolyn’s hand.

“My wife is tired. Please lead the way to the hotel, Ms. Queena.”

“Sure, sure!”
