Wooing My Ex-Wife

Hearing her question, Cedrick calmly provided the reply he had prepared. “You were too tired last night and fell asleep in the resting room in your office. I went to Harris Group in search of you and brought you back home.”

Gwendolyn was surprised to hear that. “Did I sleep until now?”

Cedrick chuckled aloud and tapped her nose affectionately. “Yes, you lazy little piggy. You slept for over ten hours.”

No wonder I’m having a splitting headache. It turns out I’ve slept for that long.

She let out a playful giggle. “Well, in that case, I should definitely head to work at Harris Group. I could use the exercise of walking around. It’s strange, though. I’ve slept for so long, but I don’t feel hungry at all.”

Recognizing her determination, Cedrick didn’t attempt to change her mind. “If you feel unwell, m to give me a call. Why don’t you leave work half an hour early? I want to prepare something delic our first candlelight dinner upon our return to the country. It’ll be a chance for us to have some e time alone. I’ll come to pick you up at work later.”

“Okay,” Gwendolyn agreed readily.

She didn’t notice he was insinuating something else by saying “quality time alone.”

After her headache was relieved, Gwendolyn regained her energy and could get off the bed to wash herself

By the time she finished washing up and putting on makeup, her headache had mostly subsided.

Cedrick sat by the edge of the bed, observing her condition discreetly. “It’s still early. I prepared some oatmeal with spinach. Why don’t you have some before leaving?”

Gwendolyn shook her head in response. “I don’t have any appetite at the moment, so I’m not hungry. Maybe I’ll feel hungry later after I’ve walked for a while. I think I’ll just grab something to eat outside.”

“Then I’ll drive you to work.”

Cedrick got up and held her hand, intertwining his fingers with hers. Without hesitation, he led her out of the house.

As he willingly became her driver, Gwendolyn didn’t resist, allowing him to drive the car.

That afternoon, Gwendolyn finally signed the contract with the person in charge from Dovil Group.

“Ms. Harris, here’s to a successful collaboration.”

Gwendolyn shook the lady’s hand warmly. “Likewise.

It was evening by the time she finally concluded the contract signing. The room was bathed in the warm glow of the setting sun, which cast a golden hue across the space.

Gwendolyn’s gaze wandered to the window, where she caught sight of the breathtaking sunset. At that moment, she remembered Cedrick’s words from earlier in the day.

She glanced at the clock and realized there were thirty minutes till six.
