Wooing My Ex-Wife

There was pin-drop silence in the surveillance room as everyone waited for an update.

Nobody dared say a word when they felt the intimidating aura that Cedrick exuded.

Cedrick had an icy-cold look in his eyes as he glared at the screen.

The time Swain managed to track the GPS signal from Gwendolyn’s phone was exactly when the car stopped outside the surveillance camera’s field of view.

That was way too much of a coincidence.

However, that car had left the moment they decided to head toward Xanthon Highway. Cedrick could only watch as the car, which Gwendolyn could be in, disappeared from sight.

“Mr. Jenson! Chief Jaeger! Chief Swain! We’ve discovered something!” said a police officer dressed in a raincoat as he came running in through the door.

He then quickly took his raincoat off and retrieved a piece of evidence that he had kept safely inside his pocket.

“Mr. Jenson, this is what we managed to find on the highway after searching the blind spots of the two surveillance cameras. It was found at a very obvious spot, so I’m not sure how useful it will be,” the police officer continued while handing it over to Cedrick.

Cedrick’s expression slid into a frown as he took the phone over and saw that it had Gwendolyn’s favorite phone case on it.

“Boss, that’s Mrs. Jenson’s phone!” Swain exclaimed in shock.

Cedrick stared at the screen of the phone in silence as he unlocked it. Apparently, it had been formatted and put on flight mode, which was why their calls couldn’t get through.

In the phone’s memo, he saw a sentence that read: It looks like your wife really is your weakness, Cedrick!

Each word sounded incredibly menacing and threatening.

Swain gasped anxiously from the side. “It looks like they really are holding Mrs. Jenson captive!”
