Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 807

“Nico, immediately send a team to the lab to protect Benny and Zendy. I want to go with you to find him.”

Not daring to go against Gwendolyn’s order, Nico could only agree to her request.

Apart from the soldiers from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Nico had no choice but to send a message to Charles, asking him to come over and keep the kids company to prevent them from waking up and looking for Gwendolyn everywhere.

Nico texted: Charles, we have a mission tonight. If you’re not asleep, please come to the lab as soon as possible to look after Benny and Zendy. Thank you.

At that moment, Charles had just finished bathing and stepped out from the steam-filled bathroom to dry his wet hair.

He hadn’t rested yet. The annihilation of the Cloud family had a significant impact on him after he returned to his regular work and life. He was still investigating the suspicious aspects of that incident.

Upon receiving Nico’s message, he immediately grabbed his coat and was ready to head out.

Upon hearing the noise, Whitney sat up in bed, asking in a daze, “Mr. Newton, are you going out?

Charles responded indifferently. “You should rest early. No need to wait up for me.”

He then strode out the door and drove away.

Whitney stood by the window and watched him leave, feeling a bit puzzled in her heart. The rain is pouring so heavily outside, yet he’s leaving in such a hurry. Whose matter could it be? It can’t possibly be about the company. Perhaps the news about the extermination of the Cloud family started to spread online again? Or, has he gone to deal with matters concerning his childhood sweetheart again?

Even though doubts filled her heart, Whitney didn’t dare to contact Charles, let alone ask him anything. She was afraid of upsetting him again.

Now that he was gone, Whitney found herself unable to sleep. All she could do was browse the internet for news, hoping to find some way to help.

Meanwhile, outside the laboratory, Gwendolyn stood at the door, pacing back and forth with an anxious expression.

Nico quickly arrived at the laboratory to pick up Gwendolyn and leave.

After getting in the car, Nico said, “Gwendolyn, you don’t need to worry. Besides a team from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, I’ve already asked Charles to come and protect the two kids. The laboratory is the safest place. With him there, Benny and Zendy will be fine.”

“Okay.” Gwendolyn responded softly, “Do you know their location? Do you have enough people with you?”

Seeing the anxious expression on Gwendolyn’s face, Nico handed her the tablet he was holding.

A red light was flashing in the center of the tablet, surrounded by a detailed grid map. Nico said, “This red dot is Cedrick’s current location. He’s at the cemetery.”

Looking at the blinking red dot in the center of the screen, Gwendolyn finally felt a bit more at ease.

The rain-slicked road was treacherous, and several armored vehicles sped through the darkness. For Gwendolyn, the journey of over an hour was nothing short of torture.

By the time they all arrived at the cemetery, Swain, who was worried about his boss, had already apprehended Joe’s undercover men in advance.

Swoosh!

Swain tossed all of Joe’s men, who were bound tightly, in front of Joe and uttered sternly, “Joe, we’ve seized. all your men. Surrender!”

Upon seeing the people lying on the ground, Gedrick slightly furrowed his brows.

With regret in his eyes, Swain said, “I’m sorry, Boss. I can’t just stand by and watch you fall into danger. Even if you decide to punish me afterward, I’ll accept it

Cedrick wore a cold and stern expression, remaining silent.

Joe laughed, abruptly pulling Cedrick up. He pressed a gun against the latter’s temple and smiled wickedly, saying, “Fantastic, Cedrick. I didn’t expect your subordinates to be so disobedient after all these years of raising them. They’ve come knocking so quickly. If I were to shoot you dead with one bullet, at least we’d have each other’s company on the road to the underworld, don’t you agree?”

Hearing that, Swain quickly persuaded, “Joe, surrender now and you’ll have a chance to live. If you continue to struggle, you’ll surely die! Don’t harm Boss!”
