The Ex and Her Riches Chapter 271


Meeting An Old Friend

Since Cedrick had no other options, he chose to ignore her instead.

Once again, he gazed out of the window with indifference.

Those lipstick stains looked very prominent against his fair, handsome face. He looked as if he had
been taken advantage of.

The cold and aloof man was of no significance in front of Gwendolyn.

Seeing that he did not wish to talk, Gwendolyn did not plan to force him.

“Fine. I’ll give you time to calm down. But you aren’t allowed to talk about calling off our engagement or
anything of that sort. Back then, you were the one who came on to me, and now, you want to back off.
Don’t even think about it! Cedrick, you belong to me and only me this lifetime! I’m sorry that I’m so
domineering. It’s too late for you now that you know my character! Take your time and have your
regrets later on!”

With a proud hum, she then left the room.

She knew Cedrick too well. He was a stubborn mule.

Furthermore, he loved to hide his pains.

Gwendolyn could guess why he was like that.

Back at the party, Valentino said that he wanted to punish Cedrick in front of her.

Both Cedrick’s parents passed away in a car accident when he was very young. As a result, he grew
up under the watchful eyes of Valentino.



Valentino was a strict, traditional man who would not hesitate to punish Cedrick. Even if Cedrick was
hurt or in pain, there was no one to console him. He could only keep it all to himself.

Cedrick was a man who cherished the people who loved him, and he would definitely hide his pain
from them.

That was why Gwendolyn thought that he was either hurt or sick this time around!

Judging from the way he was behaving, the problem at hand was quite bad.

Just because Cedrick refused to tell her did not mean she could not check it out herself!

She was walking out of the office while she was deep in her thoughts.

Nico was standing nearby.

She went over to him and whispered, “I need your help. Come with me.”

“What?”

Looking at her serious expression, Nico felt uneasy, but he could not reject her. In the end, he followed
her to the isolated stairwell.

“Ms. Gwendolyn, what can I do for you?”

Chapter 271 Meeting An Old Friend

Gwendolyn asked in a firm voice, “How long have you been working with Cedrick?”



Nico thought about it before answering, “More than ten years.”

She pondered and nodded before continuing, “Did Cedrick get hurt when you all went to the border?”

“No, we have our men around. They won’t let Mr. Jenson get hurt so easily. You have nothing to worry
about.”

Nico did not hesitate in his answer.

Gwendolyn knew then what the problem was. “Then he must be ill.”

Nico lowered his head and did not respond.

“You have been with him for so long. I’m sure you are well aware of his health condition. Is he ill? Is it
serious?”

Nico scratched his head and looked like he was put in a difficult position. “What makes you say so? Mr.
Jenson is very healthy. He isn’t ill.”

“He’s hiding things from me. Are you going to do that too?”

“I-”

“Last night, I didn’t have to use much strength to kick him off the bed. That goes to show how weak he
is. Earlier on, his face looks pale. Even if you deny it, I won’t believe you. So, tell me. What’s wrong
with him?”



Nico looked sad and tried to control himself so as not to tell the truth. He sighed and said, “Please stop
asking me. I really don’t know anything. I… I still have some work to do. I will make a move first.”

He then hurried away. Gwendolyn looked at his retreating figure and took out her phone to call Shadow
Bell.

“Take a look at Cedrick’s recent schedule and see if he has visited any hospitals frequently. Be quick

“Yes, boss.”

Meanwhile, Nico returned to the CEO’s office, and Cedrick called him in.

He opened the door and saw Cedrick wiping his face with a wet tissue.

The leather gloves that he had out on that morning were already lying in the dustbin.

“Boss, are you looking for me?”

The lipstick stains on Cedrick’s face were almost gone by now. “Where were you just now?”

Nico reported truthfully, “Ms. Gwendolyn looked for me just now. She suspects that you are ill, so she
was trying to verify with me.”

“You told her everything?”

Nico panicked and began to wave his hands. “No, never! I won’t dare to say anything!”

Cedrick’s cold face looked less tense when he heard that.

Nico did not seem to understand and tried to advise him, “However, boss, you know how Ms.
Gwendolyn is. Since she has her suspicions, she won’t rest until she finds out the truth. Do you really
not plan to tell her the truth?”

“If I tell her, then there will be one more person who will be in pain.” Cedrick looked sorrowful. “Let me
think about it. As for the change in the S404 RNA virus case file, go and check on it again.”

Nico sighed and did not say anymore. “Yes.”

In the afternoon, when Gwendolyn returned to Angle Corporation, she received a phone call.

“Boss, there is no record of Mr. Jenson visiting any hospital in recent months. His most frequented
places are Jenson Group, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and also the War Laboratory.”

Gwendolyn pondered and said, “I recall that there are professors from the medical world at the
laboratory. How often does Cedrick go there?”

“Once every seven days. Later on, once every five days. Recently, he was there at night three days
ago.”

Three days ago?

Gwendolyn frowned. Three days ago, Cedrick was at the border.

She could not believe that he had returned to Salinsburgh in advance. Instead of going to the Jenson
residence to look for her, he went to the laboratory. That’s weird.

Instinct told Gwendolyn that something else was going on.

“Can you hack into the laboratory’s database and see if there’s any information regarding Cedrick?”



There was a short silence on the other end. “I’m sorry, boss. These few places are highly guarded. We
can’t hack into them, and we won’t dare to either. The moment we do so, we will be detected.”

“All right. Got it.”

After hanging up the phone, she plunged into deep contemplation again.

Cedrick was the boss of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. His position was similar to that of Asher’s.
If Cedrick truly wanted to hide something, even if she got Asher to check on it, she was sure that
Cedrick would have the data altered.

There was nothing she could do about it besides making wild guesses.

Just as Gwendolyn was feeling lost, Leif phoned her all of a sudden.

“Ms. Gwendolyn, the high–level prison of Salinsburgh called the Harris residence and said that Charles
wants to see you.”

“Charles?”

Gwendolyn was confused. Charles has been in prison for half a year now. Why does he want to see
me all of a sudden?

Leif continued, “Charles said that he has an important secret that you will want to know. It involves your
ex–husband.”

When Gwendolyn heard the last few words, she frowned and looked serious.

“I understand.”

She quickly ended the call and drove all the way to the prison. Gwendolyn wanted to find out what
Charles knew.



She sat in the visiting room with two soundproof glass panes that separated her from the person she
was visiting.

Five minutes later, Charles was being brought out.

That was Gwendolyn’s first time seeing Charles after six months.
