Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 356

While speaking, Nico and Nicole walked out of the dungeon and got into a car.

Soon, they arrived at the duke’s residence.

The moment Nico got out of the car, he spotted a familiar tall figure at the entrance.

The man was wearing a black coat. He stood straight, exuding a wave of cold and dignified aura, seemingly waiting for Nico on purpose.

Although he had a cap and a mask on, Nico could still recognize him at first glance.

His eyes turned red. Forgetting about the wounds on his body, he pounced on the man and wrapped his arms around him.

Patting his back, the man teased, “It’s only been half a month. Why have you become so soft?”

Nico frowned slightly and did not reply to him. He tightened his grip on the man as though he was seeking the warmth of an elder brother from him.

Nicole walked over and said, “Don’t be too rough. You’re going to hurt him. His wounds haven’t recovered yet.”

The man glanced at Nico, then silently withdrew his hand from Nico’s back. “Looks like it’s been a fruitful trip. You even brought back a cute girl.”

Nicole giggled, while Nico fell silence.

At that moment, Charles was on the way back to Alzer Palace.

Staring at the dark sky outside the car window, Charles ordered Jonah coldly, “Find a way to kill Nico before he boards the plane tomorrow night and take back the Super Antiviral.”

“B-But he has extremely good fighting skills, and we can’t use guns in public. If we send too many men over, it’s going to attract the people’s attention. I don’t think our men are a match for him.”

Charles narrowed his eyes. “He has yet to recover. Just do as I say.”

“Got it,” Jonah said from the front passenger seat.

Suddenly, his phone rang.

His expression became tense at once. Turning his head to look at Charles, he said, “Mr. Lund, the people we sent to the dungeon said that Nico has gone missing!”

Charles furrowed his brows. “Look into it!”

Ten minutes after sending a text message, Jonah received a reply. “Mr. Lund, they couldn’t find him. It’s as if he has vanished into thin air.”

“He was locked in the dungeon, and on top of that, he was shackled. Are you trying to say that he magically disappeared?” Charles was furious. “Keep investigating! Find out who has been to the dungeon today!”

“Mr. Lund, although you can go in and out of the dungeon at will with the special privilege token given by Her Highness, you don’t have the authority to check the records of who has been there.”

Charles gradually calmed down. “Forget it, then. He doesn’t have the antidote yet, so he won’t leave Erihal. He’ll surely show up tomorrow!”

Come to think of it, Cedrick is getting closer to death’s door. He isn’t able to hold on much longer. After tomorrow, everything will probably be over, right?

That night was destined to be a sleepless night for everyone.

The next morning, Gwendolyn was woken up by the housekeepers to wash up and get ready.

Charles had bought her a new set of natural cosmetics, which were of no harm to pregnant women. Gwendolyn didn’t like others to put on makeup for her, so she put it on herself.

An hour later, Charles arranged for a car to send her to Flola Grand Cathedral.

The cathedral was packed with the high-ranking nobles in the royal family.

Kylie and Caesar were helping Charles to welcome the guests. Gerhardt wasn’t there.

Looking out the car window, Gwendolyn spared an indifferent glance at the lively cathedral. When the car pulled up at the back door of the cathedral, she went into the lounge that Charles had prepared for her in advance.

She had only worn the wedding gown. Her hair was not set yet.

The ceremony was starting soon. She went to the table and picked up a comb to tie her hair into a bun.

However, she was stopped when a pair of warm hands held hers.

She looked into the mirror and saw that it was Charles.

She pulled back her hand from his and asked icily, “Why are you here? Aren’t you supposed to welcome the guests?”
