The Ex and Her Riches Chapter 636

Value Girls Over Boys

Nico was stunned. “Why would you think that? I may respect Cedrick and Gwendolyn, but marriage is a
big thing. Of course I thought it through carefully before agreeing.”

Seeing how serious he was, Summer accepted his answer and continued with the next question. “Do
you think there’s something different about me today, Nico?”

She wiped her tears away, blinked, and intentionally leaned her delicately made-up face toward him.

In response, Nico studied her for a while but failed to discern any differences. “Did you… become more
of a crybaby than usual?”

Annoyed, Summer punched his shoulder relentlessly. “I knew I shouldn’t have asked you that question.
You’re so dense! Can you not see the effort I put into my makeup?”

Nico was a well-trained man. Hence, his body was tough. Summer’s punches were nothing but tickles
from his perspective. It didn’t hurt him at all.

Resignedly, he clutched Summer’s restless fist and rubbed her knuckles out of habit. “All right, stop
messing around. Otherwise, your hand’s going to hurt

At least he still knows to care about my hands. Self-comfort was the only thing Summer could do when
dealing with a man as dense as Nico.

Nico often wielded weapons, so he had calloused hands.

Meanwhile, Summer’s skin was soft and tender. He wasn’t light-handed, so he used the back of his
hand to wipe her tears away. Unfortunately, he wasn’t skilled enough and accidentally ruined her
eyeliner.



He stifled his laughter as he stared at his handiwork of turning Summer’s eyes into a panda’s. “Your
tears ruined your makeup, Princess. Should I ask an officer to send you back to wash your face?”

“Ruined?” Summer swiftly removed the small mirror in her pocket and examined her countenance with
it I spent hours putting on this makeup, yet it’s all messed up before Nico can even admire it properly!

She was so devastated that she wanted to cry more. “My makeup’s wrecked, and you forgot you’re
supposed to spend time with me! We’re about to be engaged, yet you can’t fulfill your promises! It
doesn’t seem like you care about me at all. It’s not like I can’t get married if I leave you, Nico!”

Upon ending her sentence, she turned around and left in tears.

The officer stationed at the entrance approached Nico. “Your partner seems heartbroken, Mr. Nico.
Aren’t you going to chase after her?”

Nico thought about the work he had to wrap up soon and ordered, “You chase after her and help me
send her back to the Jenson residence. If she wants to join her classmates for fun, follow her.”

“Roger,” said the officer before chasing after Summer.

Nico gazed at Summer’s back as she trotted away with teary eyes and shook his head resignedly.
Even though she’s already twenty, she’s still acting like a kid. Am I sheltering her too much? Back when
I was twenty years old, I had already joined Cedrick on the battlefield at the border twice. I had to
survive in that hostile environment, with bullets flying everywhere.

A sigh slipped from his lips as he recalled the issue of visiting Summer’s family before the engagement.

Once Cedrick returns from his vacation with Gwendolyn, he’ll likely mention the engagement to
Summer’s family as the head of the Jenson family. I should contact her family as soon as possible.



Despite having been together with Summer for so long. I didn’t investigate her family background
because the doesn’t like it. I don’t think I can avoid doing that anymore, though.

On the way back to his office, Nico asked someone to investigate Summer’s family as soon as
possible.

Since I failed to fulfill my promise to take Summer out for a fun trip due to work, I guess I’ll buy her a
xylitol cake at night. Considering how much she likes sweet things, I think she’ll cool down after seeing
the cake. With that thought in mind, he returned to his office.

Meanwhile, Charles had almost finished settling minor affairs in Newton Group at noon. After that, he
visited Harrick Villa to meet with Benedict and Zendaya.

Zoey had just fed the children with powdered nutritious milk. By the time Charles arrived, the children
had finished guzzling down the beverage.

Smiling respectfully at Charles, Zoey said, “You’re here, Mr. Newton. It must be tiring for you to visit this
place every day while Mr. and Mrs. Jenson aren’t home.”

Charles tone was composed as he replied, “I’m the children’s godfather, so this is what I should be
doing. It’s not tiring at all.”

Zendaya very much resembled Gwendolyn when the latter was younger.

Hence, Charles loved Zendaya. Every time he arrived at Harrick Villa, he would hug Zendaya for as
long as he could.

“How are Benny’s and Zendy’s lunch situation today, Mdm. Yarde?” asked Charles.

“Ms. Zendy’s appetite has always been good, so her lunch situation was no different from usual.
However, Mr. Benny didn’t drink as much milk as he typically does.”



Logically, Benedict should be drinking more than Zendaya as a boy.

Yet, his appetite was waning.

As such, Charles settled Zendaya down in the pink crib and picked up Benedict from the blue crib.
“Have you measured his temperature? Is he sick?”

Zocy nodded. “I did. His temperature is normal, so he does not have a fever. Also, as you can see, Mr.
Benny seems to be in good spirits, so he’s probably fine. Maybe the rising weather temperature is
negatively affecting his appetite. Besides, his appetite has always been lower than Ms. Zendy’s.”

In response, Charles picked up a nearby toy to entertain Benedict a little. Benedict stared at the toy
with wide eyes and giggled. Indeed, the baby boy did seem to be in good shape. “All right, then. You
should pay more attention to him. If the room temperature is too high, you should turn on the air
conditioner. Just remember not to make the room too cold. The temperature inside the room should be
consistently comfortable.

“I understand, Mr. Newton,” replied Zory.

Charles continued to shake the toy in his hand. “You should head downstairs. I want to spend some
time with the babies alone for a while.”

“Understood.” Without delay, Zoey exited the room and closed the door, allowing Charles to stay with
the

children.

Soon, Charles settled Benedict back down in the blue crib.

While Benedict was still a baby, his facial features already somewhat resembled Cedrick’s,



For some reason, Charles disliked Benedict a little.

“You’re the older brother, Benedict. One day, you’ll become a man. How can you not be as good as
your little sister? Once you grow up, you should follow in your father’s footsteps and receive the hellish
training he did in the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Only then will you become an outstanding man,”
lectured Charles before turning to Zendaya.

He played with the baby girl and pinched her chubby cheeks, which he loved to do. “If Gwendolyn and I
have a daughter, she’d be as pretty as you, Zendy.”

When no one was around, he treated each baby vastly differently.

That night. Nico returned home with an especially beautiful xylitol cake that he had bought.

However, the villa was dark, as though no one was inside.

He searched for Summer everywhere in the building but couldn’t find her.

It’s already nine. In the past, even when she was out playing with her friends, she’d be home by now.
Every time, she would be obediently waiting for me on the couch. Whenever I opened the main door,
she would hug me and call out my name sweetly. Today is unusual. Worried that something had
happened to Summer, he called her.

The phone rang for a few seconds before it disconnected. A female voice then informed him that the
person on the other end was too busy to accept the call.

In response, Nico planned to keep calling her until she answered. Suddenly, he saw a WhatsApp
message that instantly infuriated him.
