The Ex and Her Riches Chapter 287

Jealous Cedrick Jenson

Gwendolyn remained silent. Her expression was somber with worry.

Cedrick continued, “I’ve already been recovering at home for the last two weeks. People will start to get
suspicious if I don’t get out soon.”

“All right, fine,” Gwendolyn said grudgingly. “You’re not allowed to drink any liquor during the party. If I
find out you drank anything other than fruit juice, you’re never going to hear the end of it from me!”

She glared at him fiercely while letting out a cute snort.

Cedrick threaded his long fingers through her silky raven hair and tilted her head slightly upward before
bending down to kiss her gently.

After a long, drawn–out kiss, he pressed his lips together and reveled in the sensation of her soft lips.
“Neither juice nor wine tastes as sweet as you, Gwenny.”

Gwendolyn put his mask on him and hit his shoulder gently as she cooed, “What a flirt!”

The two of them left the house amidst playful flirting. They then set out to the Ferguson residence in
their black Shelby Supercar.

Eloise’s birthday party was scheduled to start at seven in the evening.

Gwendolyn and Cedrick showed up half an hour carly.

There weren’t that many guests around since the party hadn’t technically started yet.



Eloise rolled her eyes at the sight of them holding hands before walking over with a falsely bright smile.
“Hi, Ms. Harris! Aren’t you and Mr. Jenson early today!”

Gwendolyn simply smiled in response.

Cedrick, on the other hand, didn’t even glance at Eloise. His dark irises maintained their icy gaze under
his mask, which added an extra layer of mystery to his appearance.

Eloise was clearly ruffled at the lack of a response and couldn’t be bothered to put on a front any
longer. Turning away, she struck up a conversation with the socialites standing nearby.

Sherman was sitting alone and had been broodily sipping at some liquor. When he heard that
Gwendolyn had arrived, he was instantly delighted.

However, she didn’y even look in his direction. After going through the formalities with Wyatt Ferguson
and Emma Tovack, Sherman’s parents, she continued hanging around Cedrick as if they had been
joined at the hip.

Feeling upset, Sherman quickly approached and greeted her in an attempt to start a conversation. “Hi,
Gwendolyn! Long time no see. How have you been?”

Gwendolyn replied mildly, “Good evening, Mr. Ferguson. I’m well.”

Sherman visibly sagged with disappointment. “Why can’t you call me by my name like you used to?
What happened between us?”

Gwendolyn frowned at his accusation. He was making it seem like they had been very close before,

led her to wonder if he was purposely trying to agitate Cedrick.

As expected, Cedrick’s gaze underneath the mask was starting to darken with anger.

Gwendolyn quickly reached out to straighten his collar and ran her fingertips across the back of his
neck tenderly as she spoke to Sherman.

“You must have misunderstood, Mr. Ferguson. We’ve always been friends and nothing more. Also, my
fiancé is quite the jealous type. Please don’t say such misleading words that he might misunderstand.”

Cedrick finally seemed to cool down under her comforting touch and reached out to wrap an arm
around her slender waist.

Sherman felt like he had been plunged into icy–cold waters.

The persistent Maverick was gone, but an equally formidable opponent named Cedrick had appeared.
He especially couldn’t believe that Gwendolyn had fallen for Cedrick so soon, even to the point of
moving in with him.

As someone who had been in love with Gwendolyn for over ten years, he had always thought he was
her best match and the one who loved her the most.

He couldn’t swallow the fact that he no longer stood a chance. “Gwendolyn, I have something I would
like to say to you in private. I won’t bother you anymore after that. On behalf of our friendship, can you
do that?”



Gwendolyn turned him down without a second thought. “You should know that Mr. Jenson and I were
recently on the news. We got crowned the sweetest engaged aristocratic couple. I believe that there
will be several press members attending since Ms. Eloise has invited quite a few celebrities. It will be a
hassle to explain things if any reporters catch sight of us, don’t you think? I think you should say
anything you have to say here. There’s nothing I wouldn’t want Mr. Jenson to hear, anyway.”

At her words, Cedrick was slowly starting to become less agitated. He interlocked his and Gwendolyn’s
fingers tightly.

The two of them glanced at each other, smiling so sweetly it would have given anyone a cavity,

The sight severely ticked off Sherman. “I wasn’t afraid to go against the Jenson family for you,
Gwendolyn. Did you know that every single woman that Old Mr. Jenson finds for Cedrick ends up
beaten and has to be carried out while covered in injuries? He’s violent and treats women like punching
bags. There are countless rumors about him torturing women for fun. He may be pretending to be nice
now, or he may also just be worried about the Harris family’s reputation. Either way, if you marry him,
your life will become a living hell! I’ve known you since we were kids. I wouldn’t hurt you.”

Cedrick remained expressionless despite everything Sherman had been spouting about him.

However, he was a little bit curious about how quiet Gwendolyn had been about the rumors despite his
apparent notoriety.

Both men looked at Gwendolyn, who chuckled gracefully.

“At the end of the day, they’re rumors, after all. You really shouldn’t be so gullible, Mr. Ferguson.
Besides, knowing Mr. Jenson, he might have spread those rumors deliberately to protect himself from
anyone with bad intentions. I’m sure I’m the only woman for him, anyway.”

Sherman’s expression soured. He had been rendered speechless by Gwendolyn’s smooth rebuttal.

She politely said, “The party is almost starting. I’d like to have a little private time with Mr. Jenson
before it begins. See you later.”

She walked away with Cedrick hand–in–hand and left Sherman standing there looking completely
beaten down.

Eloise looked at Sherman with pity from a balcony on the second floor. Her gaze was tinged with hatred
as she turned to look at Gwendolyn’s retreating figure.

“B*tch!” she hissed.

Evelyn was standing right next to her with a perfectly made–up face. She patted Eloise on the shoulder
gently as she looked at Cedrick and Gwendolyn as well. An ambiguous smile was beginning to form on
her lips.

“Don’t worry. You have a lot of events lined up for later. Take a deep breath and calm down.”

Gwendolyn and Cedrick were walking around the villa languidly.

Suddenly, Cedrick asked, “Gwenny, do you really have that much faith in me? Aren’t you afraid that I
really did do all those cruel things to other women in the six months before we reunited?”



Since there was no one around them, Gwendolyn pinched his ear tightly as she said coldly, “So, you’ve
thought about it before, have you?”

“Ouch! No, I’m just kidding! Watch out for cameras. Tomorrow’s headlines are going to be about you
abusing me,” Cedrick wailed.

Despite his supposed complaints, he had naturally leaned down so that Gwendolyn wouldn’t have to
keep stretching her arm.

Gwendolyn let go with a smile and gently massaged his ear. “If it really does get on the news, then
you’re going to have to admit how much you love and listen to me. I don’t think I’m getting the short end
of the stick.”

Cedrick retorted, “No way! I’ll make sure to get revenge if that happens.”

“Nice try,” Gwendolyn said with a sassy eye roll. She knew what he meant by ‘revenge‘ and began
walking further ahead.

Cedrick immediately caught up with her and held her hand tightly as if he were afraid that he would
lose her.

Even though Gwendolyn didn’t ask about the rumors, Cedrick still felt the need to explain as they
continued strolling.

“Well, Grandpa did send a woman right into my bed once. I made Nico dress up like a ghost and scare
her. She fainted and had to be carried out on a stretcher, which is where the rumors came from. Yael
purposely spread them in an attempt to ruin my reputation. However, as all rumors do, they grew more
exaggerated as they spread further.”



The two of them were in the middle of their conversation when Papilio Girls‘ assistant suddenly
appeared. “Ms. Harris! I’ve been looking for you. Something happened to Jennifer and the girls
backstage. Please come with me!”
