Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 615

Chapter 615 Pretend To Be Sick

The couple left the Federal Bureau of Investigation hand in hand and rushed back to the Jenson residence, heading for Valentino's villa.

Logan was already waiting at the villa entrance. “You're finally willing to come back, Mr. Jenson.”

Cedrick said, “Have you contacted the Jenson family's medical corps?”

Logan nodded and led the couple inside. “I've made the call. The medical corps should be here in a few minutes.”

Gwendolyn asked, “Grandpa was well. Why did he pass out again out of the blue? The result of his previous medical checkup was fine, right? Did he eat something wrong again?”

Logan looked troubled. “I don't know the specifics either. As soon as I got back, Old Mr. Jenson was already unconscious. He seems to be doing worse than before, so I could only ask for you to return, Mr. Jenson.”

The trio entered the living room and headed toward the staircase.

Since Valentino was old and had difficulty walking, having to rely on the aid of a crutch all the time, his room wasn't located high up, just on the second floor.

Just as they reached the second floor, Logan suddenly turned to Gwendolyn. “Mrs. Jenson, I just heard from Mdm. Yarde that Mr. Benedict has been crying all night, refusing to sleep. Mdm. Yarde couldn't soothe him. Since you're here, why don't you check on him?”

Benny has been crying? Taken aback, Gwendolyn shifted her gaze to Cedrick and didn't respond at once.

Cedrick seemed to sense Logan's intention. He said, “I'll watch over Grandpa. If Benny has been crying all night, he must not be feeling well, or perhaps he's missing you. You go check on him. Don't worry about Grandpa.”

Gwendolyn could only nod. “I'll go check on Benny, then. If there isn't anything serious, I'll come back down to see Grandpa.”

“Okay.” A tender look filled Cedrick's dark eyes as he came to a halt and watched her ascend the stairs.

“Let's go, Mr. Jenson. Old Mr. Jenson needs you.”

Cedrick withdrew his gaze and followed Logan into Valentino's bedroom.

The white incandescent ceiling light was on inside the bedroom.

Valentino sat at the head of the bed, half leaning against the pillow. His murky yet sharp gaze was directed at Cedrick as the latter approached from afar.

Noticing that Valentino was full of vigor and doing fine, Cedrick didn't seem surprised at all.

He had suspected that when Logan intentionally distracted Gwendolyn.

“If you wish to see me, you could've just called, Grandpa. You didn't have to pretend to be sick.”

Valentino didn't respond to his grandson's slightly resentful remark and instead slowly stretched out his hand. “Cedrick, come sit by my bed.”

Cedrick strode over and sat on Valentino's bedside compliantly.
