Dirty Tricks How thoughtful of you? It seems like you’ve prepared yourself to get beaten
up.
Cedrick, do you think that I don’t dare to hurt you now that you have a high status?” Cedrick lifted his
head up to fix his eyes on her.
His eyes were red as he voiced, “I don’t care about the status.
I’m merely an ordinary guy in front of you.
If I’ve made you angry, I don’t mind getting beaten up by you.
” His words sounded genuine compared to what he said yesterday.
“If that’s how you want it, so be it.
” As she raised her horsewhip, her gaze looked hostile.
At that moment, she was overcome with the urge to beat Cedrick up badly.
I can’t wait to see Cedrick covered in blood.
I’ll beat him up until he’s unable to get up and beg me for mercy! Nevertheless, she held herself back,
taking only half of her strength to whip two times on his left arm.
“Does it hurt?” Her gaze remained indifferent.
Cedrick furrowed his brows slightly, attempting to control his arm from trembling too hard.
Taking a breath silently, he lied with a beam, “Not at all.
” Gwendolyn didn’t use all her strength and assumed his worst condition was getting a swollen wound
on his arm.
However, those two whips were powerful enough to hurt Cedrick.
The spikes on the whip snagged his shirt and torn his flesh open, leaving two bloody cuts on his arm.
It was a ghastly sight to see Cedrick’s white shirt drenched in blood.
Noticing something was not right, Gwendolyn looked down at the whip in her hand.
The horsewhip was a rough job, and there were sharp prickles on it.
Watching the horsewhip covered in blood, Gwendolyn came to a realization and felt the pain for him.
Just when she felt that way, a wave of fury crashed through her abruptly, causing her to lose her
rationality.
He’s acting well by pretending to be hurt! With that thought, Gwendolyn lifted his chin lightly and
sneered, “Cedrick, I can’t believe that you’re putting on a pitiful act to garner sympathy from me.
Is it fun to fool me with your tricks?” Feeling aggrieved, Cedrick said pitifully, “I have no intention to fool
you! It’s my fault for making you sad.
I’m willing to accept any form of punishment from you.
However, can you please let me explain after you’ve calmed down later?” Gwendolyn narrowed her
eyes and replied harshly, “Sure.
Wait till I finish whipping you.
We’ll talk later if you still have the energy to explain!” Then, Cedrick shut his eyes with his teeth gritted
and waited obediently.
Once again, Gwendolyn raised the horsewhip shakily.
Cedrick waited for a long while to hear that loud sound of a whip-crack but nothing happened.
Knowing the lethal force of the horsewhip, Gwendolyn wasn’t hard-hearted enough to land another
strike on him.
Cedrick had been putting on an act to lie to Gwendolyn.
Because of that, she harbored guilt for the past six months.
Nevertheless, she was washed over by the urge to beat Cedrick to death after knowing the truth.
Although feeling extremely angry, Gwendolyn felt sorry to inflict a serious injury on Cedrick.
At that instant, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of defeat for falling for Cedrick’s dirty tricks.
Feeling upset, Gwendolyn released her anger by whipping the floor vigorously.
The ear-splitting sound reverberated through the air.
It was so loud that Nico and William could hear the whipping sound outside the villa.
After she was done, Gwendolyn threw the horsewhip away.
She didn’t bother to look at Cedrick who was still kneeling on the ground.
Walking toward the door, she pushed it open and left without saying a word.
Nico was standing outside the villa and didn’t expect Gwendolyn to come out that fast.
At that time, he was holding a medical kit.
He wanted to hide the kit from Gwendolyn, but it was already too late.
Nico’s attempt to hide the kit made the situation worse instead.
Gwendolyn was under the impression that he was playing along with Cedrick to put up an act to fool
her.
Gwendolyn scoffed, “What a well-prepared arrangement! It’s a waste of talent for him to fool a silly me
with his smart tricks.
” Hearing that, Nico paled.
“N-No.
This is a misunderstanding.
I prepared these for Mr. Jenson.
It has nothing to do with him.
” Nico heard the loud terrifying crack and was worried about Cedrick.
Furthermore, Cedrick had to go on a mission later.
Worrying about Cedrick, Nico prepared the medical kit so that he could get him bandaged right away.
The look in Gwendolyn’s eyes grew cold.
She didn’t believe his words at all.
Meanwhile, Nico felt helpless realizing that he might have complicated the situation.
He stuttered anxiously, “Ms. Gwendolyn, this has nothing to do with Mr. Jenson.
It’s me.
” Gwendolyn didn’t want to hear anything and left the Jenson residence without looking back.
After she left, Nico slapped his mouth with frustration and went into the villa to check on Cedrick’s
condition.
Cedrick had already gotten up from the ground and could be seen sitting on the couch in a daze.
Hastily, Nico went up to him to check on his wounds and was relieved to see only two marks on his left
arm.
His movements were smooth and swift as he cleaned the wounds for him.
Cedrick had splinters from that horsewhip in his flesh.
Noticing that, Nico cautiously picked them up with a tweezer and later proceeded with disinfection.
As he recalled what happened outside the door, Nico told Cedrick everything.
“Sorry, boss.
I’m worried that you would be injured badly.
It’s dangerous for you to go on a mission with wounds.
I didn’t expect to be caught by Ms. Gwendolyn.
After the mission, I’ll explain everything to her again.
” Cedrick’s eyes darkened gradually.
“It’s useless to explain.
Whatever you’re doing is my doing as well.
She won’t believe me anymore.
” Seeing how sad Cedrick was, Nico couldn’t help but blame himself for causing the trouble and
slapped himself hard in the face.
“I’m sorry.
It’s all my fault!” He continued to slap himself.
His force was so great that his face turned swollen from the impact.
Instantly, blood started to ooze from the corner of his mouth.
Cedrick stopped him from tormenting himself by saying, “It was me who messed everything up.
I’ll explain to her when I have the chance.
Don’t blame yourself for that.
” His words didn’t make Nico feel better at all.
To Nico, Cedrick was his savior, brother, and his family.
Even though he might argue with Cedrick sometimes, Nico would always look out for him.
Shortly after that, a team of people left the Jenson residence and departed the city overnight.
… Gwendolyn had an insomnia again.
She appreciated Cedrick for saving her life and getting hurt because of her in the past.
However, it turned out that Cedrick intentionally faked his death to lay a guilt trip on her.
After knowing that she had been fooled, she couldn’t help but cry over and over again.
Gwendolyn had even thought of carrying the torch for him for the rest of her life.
In fact, she even had a plan to return to Fairlake to live near his cemetery in the future.
Now that she thought of it, she merely felt that the whole affair was really ridiculous.
I have been nothing but a fool! There was no way that she could forgive Cedrick for what he had done.
However, she couldn’t bear to vent all her anger on him by whipping him to his death.
Perhaps, the only way for her to forget everything was to stop contacting him and cut ties with him.
Gwendolyn stayed up for the whole night and contemplated.
After a night of thinking, she finally made up her mind.
The next morning, she put on some makeup and went out to the Jenson residence to look for
Valentino.
Valentino could tell that she had something to say by her solemn expression.
After breakfast, he brought her to the guest room.
Upon hearing what she said, a look of disbelief spread across Valentino’s face.
He turned to exchange glances with Logan who was equally confused.
“Did I mishear you, Gwendolyn? It’s only been two days since the announcement of your engagement
with Cedrick, and now you’re telling me that you want to call off the engagement?”
