Once Cedrick had fallen asleep, Gwendolyn carefully settled him on the bed and covered him with a blanket. Once

that was done, she quietly left the room to meet with Joshua.

“Since the lab has already obtained this blue serum, is it possible to replicate something similar or develop an

antidote based on the serum’s components, Prof. Mallory?” she asked.

With a serious expression, Joshua thought about it for a while before shaking his head. “The laboratory doesn’t

have any data on the components of the serum. Additionally, I don’t think it’s from Chanaea. I have checked.”

He paused before continuing, “The $404 RNA virus can’t be treated with an ordinary antidote. If Charles can obtain

an effective antidote, it’s definitely not from our country. Most importantly, it involves the core technology.”

It was only his speculation since he didn’t see the serum with his own eyes.

Gwendolyn contemplated her next move. I’ll observe how Cedrick reacts to the blue serum first. I’ll consider

handling Charles sometime later.

Cedrick slept for a day and a night.

When he woke up again, Joshua immediately examined the former’s body.

Cedrick cooperated with Joshua, though his expression was icy, and he didn’t even glance at Gwendolyn.

His body absorbed the serum well. His atrophy and chest pain had vanished completely. Furthermore, the spread of

the virus had decreased significantly compared to before.

Everyone was delighted, except for Cedrick.

Just as Gwendolyn prepared to hold him after they returned to Harrick Villa, he dodged her and uttered, “No need.

My body has recovered. I don’t need someone else to assist me.”

She watched his towering figure enter the villa alone, stunned.

Quietly, Nico approached her and comforted, “Don’t worry, Ms. Gwendolyn. That’s just how he is. No one ever

dares to force him to do anything. What happened wasn’t a minor issue, so he’s still hung up on it. He’ll be fine

after a few days.”

“I know.” Gwendolyn entered the villa quietly.

Meanwhile, Cedrick went straight upstairs and shut the door to his room without uttering another word to her.

It upset Gwendolyn, but she said nothing about it and returned to her room.

The next morning, she was woken up by the commotion in the garden.

Upon arriving at the balcony, she glanced downward.

Cedrick wore a thin black shirt with rolled sleeves, revealing his muscular arms.

The morning dew was still present as he exercised, executing a set of slick punches,

His cold expression from the past had returned to his handsome face, making him seem distant.

Gwendolyn intently watched him work out and applauded.

Upon hearing that, Gedrick ceased his movements and entered the villa without glancing at her. He swiftly put on

the suit he hung at the door and left the residence.

This is the first time he’s given me a cold shoulder this long Gwendolyn’s eyes followed him as he left Harrick Villa.

Casually, she folded her arms and grinned. I want to see how long he’ll last.

When Cedrick arrived at Jenson Group and sat on his office chair, he heard Nico panickily knocking on the door.

“Charles has vanished, Boss!”

“How?”

“The guard was drugged and brought Charles, who was barely alive after he was tortured, away. When Neville

brought people to check up on him during the morning, he saw the blood in the room had dried. Based on that, he

estimated Charles had escaped for a day already.”

A scowl settled on Cedrick’s countenance. A random Joe wouldn’t have been able to drug the guard protecting the

special interrogation room. The most likely suspect is someone working in the station. “What’s Craig been doing

recently?”

Nico flipped through the attendance record and informed, “Mr. Craig has been busy taking care of Eloise’s case to

the point that he can’t leave.”

Cedrick sneered, “There’s nothing worth investigating in Eloise’s case that requires so much of his attention.”

“Boss, are you saying…”

A cold look swirled in Cedrick’s eyes. “They’re brothers, after all. However, it doesn’t matter if he has escaped. I

was satisfied with venting my anger by torturing him.”

Charles is holding the secret to the antidote. I can’t kill him right now, and he knows this. That’s why he won’t spill

the beans, even if he dies. When his train of thought ended there, he continued, “Still, Craig shouldn’t have broken

Charles free in the manner that he did. Task someone to investigate the matter and whip up some evidence to

punish him.”

“Understood.” However, Nico didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he had an internal debate before asking, “Boss…

When do you plan to reconcile with Ms. Gwendolyn?”

Cedrick remained silent expressionlessly.

In response, Nico boldly suggested, “Ms. Gwendolyn hasn’t gotten angry yet. If you conciliate with her now, you can

be all lovey–dovey with her again. However, if you drag this out and wait until she’s incensed to do this, it may

become your fault…”

Knitting his eyebrows, Cedrick hurled the cup of coffee on his desk to the ground, exuding a cold vibe.

Crack!

Nico was so terrified that he paled. Without delay, he backed away to avoid getting stained by the coffee.

“I still haven’t punished you for disobeying me two days ago. Do you enjoy much?” spat Cedrick.

Nico pleaded, “Please spare me, Boss! Considering how obedient you are to Ms. possibly defy her? Don’t worry,

Boss. My heart is still on your side!”

Colyn, how can I

With an icy expression, Cedrick interrogated, “Who will you choose the next time I have a conflict of opinion with

her?”

“You, of course!” exclaimed Nico. Ms. Gwendolyn,

course!

“And if I argue with her and give her the cold shoulder, who will you help?”

you persuade Ms. Gwendolyn!”

“You! I don’t even need to consider my options. I’ll definitely help

Abruptly, Cedrick slammed his hand on the table. “Then go to her right now! I want her to yield to me!”

Realization dawned upon Nico. He probably feels too embarrassed to please her just less than two days after he

vehemently rejected the injection.

*Don’t worry, Boss. I’ll cherish this opportunity to atone for my mistake!” Nico stated flatteringly.

“Wait.” A composed expression returned to Cedrick’s countenance. “Clean the mess on the floor up before you

leave.”

While Nico felt exasperated, he beamed. “Okay, Boss! I’ll clean it up in two minutes!”

“Mhm.” Cedrick reminded in a small voice, “Don’t mention I said this if you know what I mean.”

“I do! I won’t tell her about it!”

A few minutes later, Nico wiped the floor clean and returned to his own office.

Without delay, he called Gwendolyn.

The moment the call connected, he lamented pitifully, “Ms. Gwendolyn! Mr. Jenson took his anger out on me and is

going to deduct my salary! You need to stand up for me!”

Gwendolyn was startled by his fake crying.

It’s hard to imagine what expression Nico is making, considering he’s more than one hundred and eighty

centimeters tall… Upon coughing twice, she replied, “I’ll ask him to grant you a bonus in two days. Well, did tell him

what I asked you to?”

Nico wailed even louder. “I did, but he refused to give in. In fact, he even said he wants you to relent. Maybe we

should play along with him?”
