Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 645

Chapter 645 Cedrick Made His Son Cry

Cedrick and Nico’s cars were all black, Gwendolyn owned two green cars and a white car, and everyone else’s cars were either red, white, or black in color.

The car next to them, however, was a sky-blue Rolls-Royce.

Given how bright that color was, it would be impossible to not notice it.

It looked just as quirky as Gwendolyn’s green Maserati,

Gwendolyn couldn’t help but think of the owner of the car when she saw its color.

The car sure matches the owner…

Cedrick wrapped his arm around her waist from behind as he followed her gaze and noticed something off about the car as well. “This car doesn’t look like it belongs to the Jenson family.”

“Yeah, it’s Charles’. We didn’t tell him that we’d be returning to Chanaca today. He probably came over to visit the babies,” Gwendolyn replied.

Cedrick shot her a strange look and asked, “How do you remember his license plate so well, Gwenny?”

Gwendolyn paused for a second before giving him a light smack on the head. “What are you thinking? There’s no way I’d remember his license plate! I only made a guess based on the car’s color!”

Cedrick held her hand and picked up the suitcase before leading her into Harrick Villa.

Sure enough, Charles was indeed playing with Zendaya in the nursery on the fourth floor.

“Look, Zendy! Your parents are finally back from their fun little trip! Aren’t you glad that they still remember you two? I’m surprised they didn’t leave you two in my care!” Charles said half-jokingly when he saw Cedrick and Gwendolyn enter the room.

Because Charles was keeping Zendaya company, Cedrick and Gwendolyn made their way toward Benedict and sat down beside him instead.

“It’s good to see that you two are finally back, Mr. and Mrs. Jenson! I’ll go prepare a bottle of milk downstairs,” Zoey said while leaving the nursery.

Charles shifted his gaze toward Gwendolyn the moment Zoey stepped out the door. “You’re glowing. Gwen. Your trip must have gone really smoothly, huh?”

“It did. I feel kind of bad for you and Nico, though.”

Charles let out a casual chuckle. “I’m Benny and Zendy’s godfather, so I have a duty to look after them while you two are away. There’s no need to feel bad for me.”

As Gwendolyn had known him for over twenty years, she paid no heed to his response and continued playing with Benedict.

Benedict, who was sitting inside the blue crib, didn’t seem all that interested in the toy she was holding, though.

Fortunately, Cedrick was sharp and noticed that Benedict wasn’t feeling well. “There’s something off about Benny. It looks like he has recently fallen sick or something.”

Charles stopped shaking the rattle he was holding and explained, “Not exactly. I had the pediatrics from the Jenson family’s medical corps take a look at him, and they haven’t found anything wrong with him. I’m not sure if it is due to the weather or his immune system, but Benny’s appetite hasn’t been as good as Zendy’s lately.”

The stern look on Cedrick’s face intensified as he continued to pat Benedict on the cheek.

A few seconds later, the patting turned into a hard squeeze, and Benedict burst out crying from the pain.

Despite how weak he seemed, his crying sounded fairly loud and energetic.

Gwendolyn’s heart ached when she saw Benedict crying like this. “There, there… Stop crying, Benny. Your daddy shouldn’t have squeezed your cheek so hard. Your cheek is all red now! Don’t worry: I’ll punish him for you in a bit!”

Cedrick glanced at his hand and said with a faint smile, “I didn’t pinch him all that hard, though. I didn’t think his cheek would be so soft and sensitive!”
