Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 656

Chapter 656 Hurting Your Relationship With Him

The prison guard took in Yael's nervous look and snorted, guessing that the latter had to have made the wrong assumption.

“Don't worry. You're not dying any time soon. Some important man wants to meet you.”

In the middle of the night?

Yael was tense. Who visits a prisoner in the middle of the night? Who could it be?

As he mulled over that anxiously, the grogginess he felt earlier dissipated.

The sound of two men's footsteps echoed in the corridor. The prison guard took out his key and unlocked the door to the secret visiting room.

The steel door creaked open, and Yael entered, his wrists and ankles still cuffed.

There was a large square table in the visiting room with two men sitting across from it.

Yael fixed his eyes on one of the men. The latter had dark eyes and was looking at him expressionlessly, exuding a domineering aura.

His face was one that Yael was extremely familiar with. He was the man he desperately wished to kill—Cedrick Jenson.

Alas, he had lost. He would not have the chance to fulfill his wish.

What surprised him most was that Cedrick had brought Charles along this time.

The Newton family was the Harris family's business rival. Yet, it seemed that Cedrick was not planning to shy away from discussing family matters around Charles.

Yael was confused, but he still took a seat with a dark look.

Once the prison guard left the room and closed the door behind him, he promptly asked, “Why did you look for me at this time of the day? Did something happen to Dad?”

Cedrick brushed the watch on his left wrist and, without lifting his gaze, muttered, “Grandpa is doing fine. Just a few months ago, I sent Benny and Zendy to him so that he could take care of them, but now, I found out that there are issues with the milk powder Benny and Zendy had been consuming. I wonder if someone used Grandpa and changed the milk powder for something else.”

Yael nearly burst out laughing. “It looks like you've gained a handful of enemies, and some are out to get your children too. Your misery is their delight.”

Cedrick furrowed his brows and went straight to the point. “You were still working in an unimportant role in the subsidiary at that time, so I know it wasn't you. But I'm suspicious of Xander's involvement. Grandpa raised him since young, so he often visited his place.”

The smile on Yael's face faded immediately.

Seemingly reading Cedrick's mind, Yael quickly clarified, “There's no way my son's involved in this. He's not as smart as you, and I told him to consult me first before he made any decision. He didn't say anything about this. It definitely wasn't him.”

Cedrick huffed in mockery, “So did he tell you that he was going to collude with Paul to hurt Grandpa?”

Yael nodded vigorously. “Yes, he did. I gave him my permission. Who knew he would be so incompetent and screw up the entire matter?”

Cedrick fell silent. He seemed to be contemplating something, but Yael could not tell if he believed in his words or not.

Yael had no choice but to continue, “Even if my son has the guts to go after you without my knowledge, Dad won't let him get away with it. I heard that Dad thinks of the world of Benny and Zendy. Besides the nanny you sent over, only Logan and a few housekeepers that he's close to are allowed into Benny and Zendy's nursery. Cedrick, you should know that your grandfather is from the army. He's a wary man, and he's meticulous when it comes to the kids. There's no way the Jensons did this,” Yael said without hesitation.

Charles maintained an onlooker attitude the entire time and did not participate in any discussion of the topic.

He did not know what happened in the Jenson residence at that time, after all.
