Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Gwendolyn giggled as she extended her right hand, offering Cedrick her slender and fair fingertips.

“Have you thought it through? You can’t regret it afterward. If you dare to let me down in the future, I won’t spare

you.”

“Okay. I’ll have the Lego pieces and ruler ready for you any time.”

Cedrick managed to make Gwendolyn laugh. Her sorrowful mood from half an hour ago dissipated completely after

his gentle efforts moved her.

It was so sweet that Gwendolyn couldn’t help grinning from ear to ear.

Cedrick held her hand and put the ring on her finger decisively. Imitating the way she spoke, he said, “Now that you

are wearing my diamond ring, you belong to me. You won’t be able to escape from me in this lifetime, Gwenny.”

He turned her hand around and kissed the back of it gently. Then, he stood up and carried her in his arms.

“Wait.”

Gwendolyn shifted her gaze to the green roses under the tree. “Such beautiful flowers shouldn’t go to waste. Ask

the bodyguards to trim them and put them in vases. Let’s place a few vases in each room, okay?”

“As you wish.”

He lowered his head to kiss her before going back into the villa.

“Why did you think of displaying green roses?” Gwendolyn continued asking. “I thought you dislike the color green.

This is the first time I’ve seen someone propose with flowers of this shade.”

“Green roses are unique, just like you are. They symbolize evergreen love. However…”

Cedrick leaned closer to her ear as he continued, “The main reason is that you like the color green.”

His hoarse voice sounded incredibly alluring.

Gwendolyn couldn’t help but kiss him. As their breaths entangled, they got carried away by their love for each

other.

For all Gwendolyn cared, the recent mess about inheritance rights, paternity tests, and illegitimate daughters could

be dealt with the next day.

That night, Gwendolyn slept soundly in Cedrick’s embrace.

Gwendolyn was awakened by a kiss when dawn arrived the next day.

As she opened her eyes in a daze, she saw Cedrick’s dark eyes glinting with excitement. He had a mysterious

expression on his face as he stared at her.

“What’s the matter with you now?”

Nuzzling her nose, he replied, “Gwenny, there is actually another small surprise for you besides last night’s

proposal.”

“There’s more?”

“Yes,” he murmured lightly in his charismatic voice by her ear. “Open your phone and check the news.”

Still groggy from sleeping, Gwendolyn reluctantly reached for her phone.

However, the moment she saw the news, her drowsiness instantly vanished. She sat up from the bed immediately.

Cedrick had transferred all his assets, properties, and shares to her.

Overnight, she rose to the top of the rich list in Chanaea, becoming the only female to make it on the list.

She also received a notification on her bank card of a massive transfer from Cedrick. xo.com fast update

The entire nation’s netizens were shocked by Cedrick’s astonishing gesture of doting on his wife. All the ten top

trending topics were related to them.

“Why… Why did you…” Gwendolyn was so touched that she nearly burst into tears again.

However, she was more concerned than touched. “Do you know what it means to give all of your shares in Jenson

Group? This is not a simple matter, Cedrick! You should have discussed it with me first!”

Gwendolyn sounded fierce because she was worried.

Biting his lower lip, Cedrick lowered his head as if admitting his mistake.

Then, as he nestled himself into her arms, he muttered, “I am left with nothing now, Gwenny. I don’t even have a

penny left. Do you still want me?”

Gwendolyn sighed as she caressed his face feeling grateful and sorry for him at the same time. As she spoke, she

slightly choked.

“I already accepted your proposal last night. How can I not want you? But… Is this really worth it?”

Cedrick tightened his arms around her waist and spoke with satisfaction. “Yes, it’s worth it. You are now the

wealthiest woman in Chanaea. Even if you are really a criminal’s illegitimate daughter, no one will dare to question

you. Moreover, my woman deserves the best things in the world.”

Instantly, Gwendolyn’s eyes reddened, and tears streamed uncontrollably down her face.

Words couldn’t express how grateful she was to him.

Back when Cedrick was disguised as Maverick, she used to think that falling in love with him was the greatest

misfortune of her life.

Who would have guessed that he would turn out to be the only fortune of her life?

When she was at her most desperate, he was willing to give everything to her. Perhaps that was the most beautiful

declaration of love in the world.

As Gwendolyn held him tightly, she listened to his steady heartbeat and savored the sense of security he provided.

Knock! Knock!

The warm atmosphere was interrupted by a knocking sound.

Nico was standing at the door.

“The paternity test result is out, Cedrick.” Nico’s voice was low, his mood seemingly not so good.

Cedrick immediately became serious and got out of bed. After opening the door, he took the paternity test report

from Nico and read it first.

After reading it, his expression turned grim. “Are you sure that you delivered Gwenny and Pierre’s hair to the

hospital personally?” he asked in a serious tone.

Nico nodded cautiously. “Yes, I personally sent them to Grand Valley Hospital, the most authoritative hospital in the

city. Under the order of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Alban personally conducted the test.”

Cedrick fell into silence. After pondering for a while, he said, “You can go downstairs for now.”

Nico nodded tactfully and left.

Gwendolyn remained on the bed because she was still in her sleepwear.

Looking at Cedrick standing by the door, she said, “Let me see it, Ceddy. Whatever the result is, I’ll accept it.”

Cedrick hesitated for a moment, but he handed her the paternity test report in the end.

Gwendolyn took it and flipped directly to the last page.

The words “father-daughter relationship” were painful to read for her, and there was Alban’s fingerprint again.

“I think there’s something fishy about this, Gwenny. Don’t believe the test results just yet. Marcus had never

doubted your identity in all the years that you’ve been at the Harris residence. He doted on you so much, so why

did he suddenly decide to do a paternity test at this critical moment? Someone must have told him to do it.”

Cedrick continued, “Besides, even Marcus himself was unaware of this. Yet, some people seem to be well-informed

about these past events despite being younger than you. Can it be that someone is manipulating things behind the

scenes? Firstly, Marcus got into trouble, then your identity as a criminal’s biological daughter was exposed. All of

this happened just a day before the signing of inheritance rights, subjecting you to one blow after another. At first

glance, these incidents may appear logical, but upon closer examination, they seem to be far too coincidental and

deliberate! These incidents, when viewed together, give me a sense that the perpetrator is running out of time and

has no choice but to resort to such tactics.”

Gwendolyn listened quietly. Frowning slightly, she stared at the official seal of Grand Valley Hospital on the paternity

test report.

Cedrick noticed the expression on her face when she looked at the report as he added, “Although this report was

personally issued by Alban, I don’t think we can fully trust it. How about we call Kieran and ask him to carry out the

test personally?”
