Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

“This matter is quite complicated. I’ll explain to you in the future, but I can assure you it’s not what you think.

Gwenny has a very good personality, and you’ll grow to like her,” Cedrick said.

Tania remained silent.

Recalling Nico’s situation, Cedrick continued, “Since you’re back, Aunt Tania, why don’t you assist me with the

arrangements with the family genealogy?”

“Family genealogy? What is it about?” she asked.

With a determined gaze, Cedrick said, “I want to include Nico in the family genealogy and list him as an adopted

son under my father’s name!”

“All right. You’ve always known what you’re doing. Since you already have that plan in mind, I’ll help you.”

Tania was always efficient in her work.

Two days later, on an auspicious day, she called upon respected elders from the family to witness the ceremony.

Since it was a family matter among the Jensons, Gwendolyn could only stand outside and observe from a distance.

In the ancestral hall where the ceremony was conducted, Nico followed the proper etiquette. He presented a cup of

tea to Valentino with both hands and respectfully greeted, “Grandpa.”

Valentino accepted the tea, took a sip calmly, and then lifted the tea cover. He lightly dipped his finger in the tea

and placed a dot on Nico’s forehead.

Once the elaborate procedures were completed, the family members noted “Nico Jenson” in the family record.

“You’re a part of the Jenson family now. You must be honest, abide by the laws, and always heed the guidance of

the elders of the Jenson family.”

“All right, Grandpa,” Nico responded obediently.

“Go on,” Valentino said, tapping his cane to signal Nico to present another cup of tea to Cedrick.

Nico stood up and approached Cedrick.

“Boss, here’s a cup of tea for you!” Nico’s demeanor changed completely. He smiled brightly, radiating warmth and

joy like a blooming flower.

Frustrated, Cedrick gave Nico a light tap on the head and said, “From now on, you should call me Cedrick!”

Nico handed him the tea and sincerely exclaimed, “Cedrick!”

Gwendolyn quietly watched from outside the door, taking in the scene.

She was genuinely happy for Nico, as he had gained so much after his return from Erihal.

After an hour of going through the intricate process of being recorded in the family genealogy, it finally came to an

end.

As a gift for joining the Jenson family, Cedrick presented a small villa to Nico. It was just two alleys away from

Harrick Villa.

Upon hearing the news of Nico receiving the property, Summer surrounded him, showering him with

congratulations. She then eagerly pulled him along to decorate the new villa with some new items.

Once they left, Cedrick immediately drove Gwendolyn to a hospital in the city, heading straight to the obstetrics and

gynecology department as it was time for her routine checkup.

As the doctor conducted the examination, Cedrick was not allowed to enter the room.

He anxiously sat in the corridor, feeling restless and uneasy.

This child was conceived when he still had the virus in his body, so there was a high possibility that the child might

not be healthy and could carry the virus. There was even a risk of transmitting the virus to Gwendolyn, making her

sick too.

The more Cedrick thought about it, the more unsettled he became.

He discreetly gave Joshua a call.

Upon receiving the man’s call, Joshua was a little bewildered. “What’s wrong, Cedrick? You never reach out to me

unless there’s something wrong with your health. Are you experiencing any discomfort?”

“Do you always have to think negatively about me?” Cedrick’s face darkened, not in the mood for playful banter.

He cut to the chase and asked, “Will we be able to detect the virus in Gwenny’s child if it is indeed present?”

“How long has she been pregnant?” Joshua queried in response.

Cedrick thought about it before answering, “Six and a half weeks.”

“I’m afraid it can’t be detected at this stage, Cedrick. The current testing methods in the country rely on laboratory

tests, and at such an early stage, it’s not possible to perform such tests. We may have to wait until the child is born

for a definitive diagnosis.”

However, if the child was born before they could detect the virus, it might be too late to take any necessary actions.

Cedrick fell into a deep silence, his mind clouded with worry and concern. After mulling over the situation for a

while, he gathered his courage and posed the question. “Is… there any way to abort the child without causing harm

to Gwenny’s body?”

“It’s not possible, Cedrick. Any method of abortion would inevitably cause some harm to the mother,” Joshua

explained.

Upon hearing that, Cedrick sighed inwardly. If only men could become pregnant. I wish I could bear the suffering on

behalf of Gwenny, allowing her to focus solely on her health and happiness.

On the other end of the phone, Joshua, unaware of Cedrick’s silent response, continued to provide information,

saying, “However, if the pregnancy is still in the early stages, there are medications available on the market that

pose the least harm to the mother. If Gwendolyn takes them and takes good care of herself, the overall impact

should be minimal.”

“What medicine?”

“Mifepristone. However, this medication is newly developed and currently prohibited for sale in the country. It might

be a bit troublesome if you wish to purchase it.”

“Got it,” Cedrick responded before ending the call.

He then dialed Nico’s number. “After you finish your current tasks in the next couple of days, I’ll arrange for you to

go abroad and help me purchase something.” xo.com fast update

Nico listened attentively to his instructions.

Although Cedrick did not explicitly mention what the medication was for, the mention of the word “pregnancy”

piqued Nico’s curiosity. He decided to do some research on his tablet.

As he delved deeper into his search, Nico was taken aback by what he discovered. “Cedrick, are you serious? This

medication is for abortion! It will harm Gwendolyn’s body!”

Cedrick was also visibly conflicted. To him, nothing was more important than Gwendolyn’s health.

The pain caused by the S404 RNA virus was something Cedrick had experienced firsthand. He did not want anyone

else to go through the misery anymore.

Instead of discussing further with Nico, he uttered, “Do as I said and stop asking questions. I know what I’m doing.”

Nico could not help but worry, feeling a sense of unease. “Cedrick, you don’t understand. This baby holds a special

meaning for Gwendolyn. During our time in Erihal, she went to great lengths to handle Charles. She did that all for

the sake of protecting this child.”

Cedrick fell into a prolonged silence.

Nico continued, “She cherishes this baby very much. You can’t just strip her of her rights as a mother and then

apologize later. She’ll be devastated and perhaps even develop resentment toward you.”

Those final words struck Cedrick’s heart with a heavy blow.

While his mind was still in turmoil, the lights in the examination room suddenly went out. The nurse was the first to

come out, bringing forth good news. “Congratulations, Mr. Jenson. Ms. Harris is pregnant with twins!”

Cedrick immediately hung up the call with Nico and stood up, entering the room to look for Gwendolyn.

His expression was grave, lacking the joy one would expect from impending fatherhood, leaving the nurse

bewildered.

“Gwenny, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?” he asked, gently supporting Gwendolyn and anxiously checking

the monitoring equipment to ensure he had not caused her any pain.

Gwendolyn gently cradled his face in her hands and placed a loving kiss on his lips, her face radiant with joy.

“Ceddy, the doctor explained that the reason I experienced such strong pregnancy symptoms during that time was

because I’m carrying twins. It led to an excess of hormones, but rest assured, my health is perfectly fine!”

She was filled with excitement as she handed him the ultrasound report. “Although it’s still too early to see clearly,

in a few months’ time, you’ll have not just one, but two little bundles of joy! Aren’t you happy, Ceddy?”

Cedrick was momentarily taken aback, his gaze shifting between the ultrasound report and the beaming expression

on Gwendolyn’s face. At a loss for words, he was unable to articulate his emotions.
