“How?” Gwendolyn frowned. “He kept refusing to speak to me. I presented him multiple opportunities tosettle the issue with dignity, yet he’s still acting all prideful!”

That rendered Nico speechless. Why is this couple asking me, a bachelor, how to settle theirrelationship problems? I didn’t ask to be stuck in the middle!

The more Gwendolyn thought about it, the more furious she became. Her mind was filled with imagesof Cedrick’s frigid expressions from the past two days. I can’t believe he’s throwing shades at me rightafter he recovers a little. What a headstrong man!

“Whatever. I’ll let him be. If he wants to keep giving me the cold shoulder, I’ll entertain him until theend.” Right before she hung up the call, Nico stopped her.

He said, “Don’t hang up, Ms. Gwendolyn! I’ll think of a plan!”

“What kind of plan?”

Nico kept quiet for a long while, secretly searching for “How to appease your boyfriend when he’sangry?”

on his tablet.

After scanning through the search results, he came up with a suggestion. “Mr. Jenson loves gettingsurprises from you. How about you do something special this time?”

“Something special?” Gwendolyn knitted his eyebrows. “Like what?”

Pressing his fist on his mouth, he coughed twice. “Like… adding a bit of spice to your love life.”

He felt slightly embarrassed saying what he meant out loud since he was a virgin. “He is really hopingthat you will move back into the master bedroom every day. If you dress a little more… captivatinglywhen you do that, I bet he won’t be able to resist you, especially with your amazing figure!”

“Oh, so you’re asking me to wear something like a maid or a cat costume? A sexy cosplay?”

Reflexively, Nico coughed. “That… and if you call him Ceddy, I bet he won’t care about being madanymore. In fact, he’ll be eager to give you even his life!”

Gwendolyn took in a deep breath and she blushed. I can’t believe a virgin like Nico is teaching methese things. It’s pretty embarrassing.

Her cheeks reddened further as she imagined what would happen if she followed Nico’s advice. “Justlet it be. I don’t think I can do it. Talk to you in two days!”

Hastily, she hung up the call. Her heart raced as she pressed her hand on her chest.

While staring at the computer screen, she struggled to remove those scenes from her mind.

Upon gathering her courage, she clicked on a search engine and typed in relevant keywords.

A variety of selections promptly appeared before her, including cuffs, whips, candles, and many otherthings.

Gwendolyn was dumbfounded. Are youngsters nowadays this kinky? I feel like an idot who juststumbled upon a new continent! I wonder if Cedrick will like this…

After some perusing, she added an outfit with a tail to her cart.

Abruptly, someone knocked on the door. “Are you inside, Ms. Harris?”

Gwendolyn was so startled by the sudden sound that she almost dropped her phone.

Quietly, she closed the website and allowed Joanne to enter and talk about work.

Meanwhile, Nico was summoned to Cedrick’s office again before work ended.

While Cedrick typed, his attention affixed to his computer screen, he asked, “How did it go?”

In response, Nico lowered his head dejectedly and shook it.

Cedrick’s countenance darkened the moment he spotted Nico’s expression.

Stifling his displeasure, he pretended to sound casual. “It’s fine if she doesn’t want to. Anyway, what’smy schedule? Do I have any upcoming meetings?”

Nico expeditiously turned on his tablet. “There’s one tonight. Mr. Valentine from Parkview Enterpriseinvited you to join him at The Honey Bee.”

A troubled expression settled on his face. “However, Mr. Valentine is working with us on the RossiProject. If you wish to meet him, you’ll probably have to bring Ms. Evelyn along. I thought you won’twant to attend it, so I canceled it.”

“Well, I will,” answered Cedrick without hesitation.

“It’ll be quite late by the time it ends. Do need me to inform Ms. Gwendolyn about this?”

“No.” Cedrick stood before tidying his shirt and tie.

Then he left the office.

Staring at Cedrick’s back, Nico punched the air like a madman. “These two jerks are going to drive mecrazy! Do they think whoever relents first will be the loser? This is torture!”

During the night, in a fancy VIP room within The Honey Bee, a few tycoons in suits wrapped their armsaround their female companions and drank in delight.

Cedrick sat in the middle with a cold expression and an imposing vibe, like

a king.

Silently, he sipped his wine without interacting with anyone else. He even kept a reasonable distanceaway from Evelyn.

Peering at his expression, Evelyn proactively poured him a glass of red wine when you’re out for fun,Mr. Jenson. Care to drink with me?”

“You should enjoy yourself

To her surprise, Cedrick merely glanced at her coldly and continued drinking alone.

He couldn’t even be bothered to reject her invitation.

Evelyn’s expression shifted slightly. Embarrassed, she changed the topic. “You seem to have comehere tonight to distract yourself. Did you quarrel with Ms. Harris?”

Cedrick was holding a wineglass and he halted his movement.

The lively atmosphere suddenly turned serious because of that.

The other CEOs all turned their attention to Cedrick.

Everyone knew Cedrick and Gwendolyn were a well–known, loving couple on the internet. In fact,many in the room saw their display of affection at the charity gala.

As everyone stared at Cedrick, he just emptied his glass without saying a word.

Everyone took his silence as admittance. Even a terrifying business figure like him is still a man andargues with his partner.

Edmund Valentine helped him and replied, “Of course not. Mr. Jenson and Ms. Harris have arelationship tougher than steel. I doubt they have ever bickered with each other. I bet it won’t take longbefore we are all invited to his wedding!”

Cedrick frowned as his body stiffened.

The matter that had been troubling him was evoked.

A cold look swirled in his dark eyes as he picked up a wineglass from the table and violently smashed itinto the corner.

The women, aside from Evelyn, were frightened by the sudden turn of events and screamed.

Even the CEOs were shocked. They were taken aback by Cedrick’s intimidating demeanor andcouldn’t utter a word.

“Mr. Jenson?” Edmund spoke.

A frenzied look dominated Cedrick’s eyes as he roared, “Get the f*ck out!”

“Yes, of course!”

In a few seconds, everyone aside from Evelyn left hastily. They didn’t want to become targets ofCedrick’s

anger.

Cedrick emptied a wine bottle before smashing it into the wall.

Evelyn remained still and smiled gracefully. In fact, she even poured herself a glass of wine to drinkwith him.

“Why are you still here?” Upon focusing on her, Cedrick threatened grimly, “If you don’t want to end uplike that bottle, get out of my sight now!”

“You’re jesting, Mr. Jenson. You’re not a monster, and I’m not afraid. Well, are you enraged becauseMr. Valentine mentioned your marriage with Ms. Harris?”

Cedrick frowned. As he turned around, he choked Evelyn with his gloved hand while he glowered ather.

Evelyn’s countenance reddened. Despite her pain, she still grinned. “I bet you’re angry because he hityou
