Because of the matter with Gina, both Gwendolyn and Cedrick were particularly careful in recruiting a
nanny, going as far as screening the candidates’ family background and experience.
In the end, they decided on a kindly middle-aged woman known as Zoey Yarde, who preferred to be
addressed as Mdm. Yarde.
Ever since they hired Zoey as a nanny, Cedrick was finally liberated from his duties, enjoying a far
more peaceful and comfortable life.
The days of peace and comfort flew past.
In the blink of an eye, it was the twins’ welcome baby party. Gwendolyn’s postpartum recovery had also
gone well, and she was back on her feet.
There was a horde of guests during the party. They all surrounded the twins and praised them to the
skies, beyond fond of them.
Gwendolyn ordered Cedrick and Zoey to keep a close eye on the twins, asserting that the babies must
always be within a meter of their line of sight.
As newborns were fragile, the guests were merely allowed to look without touching, much less cradling
them.
Meanwhile, she went to the door to welcome the guests.
Shortly after, a handsomely-dressed Treyton arrived with a sizeable gift in hand.
Noticing that he was alone, Gwendolyn asked in curiosity, “Why did you come alone today without
waiting for Jennifer?”
A hint of embarrassment showed on Treyton’s face. “She’s pretty busy with work recently. I suspect
someone said something to her, for I can’t shake off the feeling that she’s deliberately distancing
herself from me these days.”
“Did you anger her?”
“No.” Treyton pondered for a moment before adding, “It’s nothing unusual for couples to have a few
quarrels occasionally, no? She never acted like this in the past, but she’s been exceedingly cold toward
me lately.”
“I’ll help you feel her out when I’m free, okay?” Gwendolyn proposed.
“Forget it. I’ll handle my own matters.”
Patting her brother on the shoulder, Gwendolyn urged solemnly, “How could you take offense with a
woman when you’re a man, Treyton? It’s best to quarrel less in the future. Give way to her as much as
possible. Too many conflicts will hurt the relationship.”
“Got it.”
Treyton bobbed his head, listening to her lecture obediently.
Recalling Kieran’s message, he continued somberly, “Oh yes, Kieran happened to fly over to Fairlake
last night, so he probably won’t be able to make it today. He asked me to give you a monetary token,
promising to buy the twins a gift when he returns to Salinsburgh.”
Fly over to Fairlake?
With nosiness written all over her face, Gwendolyn intentionally teased, “Why did he go to Fairlake
when he doesn’t have any important assets there?”
Treyton eyed her in gratification. “To pursue my future sister-in-law, of course! But it’ll probably be a
challenge this time. He acted high and mighty for more than half a year, only now snapping back to his
senses when she’s gotten engaged. He’ll likely be put through the wringer.”
Bursting into laughter, Gwendolyn scoffed unceremoniously, “Serves him right! He deserves it for
always acting aloof and wearing a poker face. There must be a woman to tame him!”
Sharing her sentiments, Treyton nodded in agreement.
As they were talking, Sienna arrived.
She was alone.
Seeing that, Treyton casually inquired, “Why are you alone, Sienna?”
Sienna remained smiling, but an indistinct trace of worry creased her brows.
“It rained heavily a few days ago, and Asher fell ill. Not only did he run a high fever, but he damaged his
knees from kneeling throughout the night previously. Now, they hurt every time it rains or the season
changes. Besides, he knows that Gwen won’t be happy to see him, so he decided not to intrude.”
The smile on Gwendolyn’s face gradually faded. She lowered her head and said nothing.
Treyton scrutinized her expression carefully. Upon ascertaining that she showed no aversion, he
ventured, “Don’t tell me he’s still reading Heagurn Sutra, Sienna?”
In response, Sienna gave a dip of her head. “It’s as though he has gone mad. He punishes himself like
crazy by reading that scripture, come hell or high water, even when he was running a fever.”
She then sighed soundlessly. Her eyes inadvertently became red-rimmed, but she forced a smile when
she remembered that it was the twins’ welcome baby party that day.
At her words, a sense of strangeness pervaded Gwendolyn. Nonetheless, she merely lamented, “I’ve
dissuaded him from doing so more than once, but he’s too stubborn. Unless he sees the light himself,
no one will be able to change his mind.”
The atmosphere between the three of them abruptly turned grave.
Silence reigned for a few seconds before Gwendolyn smilingly steered the conversation back to its
initial trajectory.
“Quick, come in, Treyton, Sienna. Benny and Zendy are with Cedrick. Go and have a look at them.”
Treyton and Sienna nodded. Soon, the atmosphere turned harmonious again, and they strolled into the
house with chatter and laughter.
Gwendolyn remained outside to welcome the guests.
It was only when the welcome baby party was about to begin did Jennifer arrive in a mad dash.
Gwendolyn quickly ushered her into the house.
At the table, the seat beside Treyton was left vacant on purpose. However, Jennifer merely glanced at
it. She chose not to go over, sitting at an unoccupied place nearby instead.
Clocking the unusual atmosphere between the couple, Gwendolyn surreptitiously threw Treyton a look.
Unfortunately, she could not interfere since a fight between lovers had to be resolved by the couple in
question.
During the party, Jennifer sipped at her red wine elegantly.
Ever since she won the Best Actress Award, she obtained a wide range of resources. Her aura had
also been honed on set time and again, rendering her increasingly gracious.
Right then, she had already blended into the circles of the wealthy elite, although the Newton family
had yet to acknowledge her publicly.
The table she shared was full, so Treyton could only stare at her from afar.
The instant he saw that men were seated on both sides of her, his emotions became a jumbled mess.
He remained morose throughout the entire meal.
It was a dance segment after the meal, and Jennifer found a quiet place to talk to Gwendolyn alone.
Holding a glass of fruit juice, Gwendolyn lightly clinked it against hers before asking tentatively, “What’s
going on with you and Treyton? I noticed that you didn’t say a single word to him throughout the party
today. Are you two fighting?”
Jennifer, who had her head tilted back as she enjoyed the wine, abruptly stilled.
After a mere half-a-second lull, she downed the entire glass of wine that was filled to the brim. A
crimson shade stained her adorable face, but the look in her eyes remained clear and firm.
“I want to break up with him, Gwendolyn.”
Her remark happened to be overheard by Treyton, who was furtively heading over.
His face went as black as thunder, and he promptly saw red. Resolutely striding forward, he grabbed
Jennifer’s hand and dragged her away.
Surprisingly, he even apologized to Gwendolyn. “We’ve got some private matters to discuss, so please
excuse us, Kiddo. I’ll be back to visit my niece and nephew in a few days.”
With that said, he stalked off while towing Jennifer, giving her no opportunity to protest.
“What are you doing, Treyton? Let go of me!”
It was as though Treyton did not hear her. His gaze was chilly, and he said nary a word.
“Let go! You’re hurting me!”
Not only was Jennifer’s voice loud, but she also wore a pitiful expression. In a flash, many guests
swung their gazes over.
Loosening his hold on her, Treyton pivoted. He bent at the waist and slung her over his shoulder before
marching out of the Jenson residence.
“Put me down! Please be reasonable, Treyton!”
Alas, Treyton ignored her. Restraining her kicking legs, he warned lowly, “Behave if you don’t want to
attract more attention and ruin this welcome baby party.”
At once, Jennifer’s hands that had been thumping him on the back stilled.
Carrying her to the car, he instructed Elisha to drive home without delay.
In the car, he forcibly twisted her body to face him. With eyes blazing scarlet, he demanded, “Were you
serious when you told Kiddo that you wanted to break up with me?”
Jennifer was stunned for a moment before she gave a firm bob of her head. “Yes.”
Treyton’s eyes turned crimson, and his grip on her shoulders increased in strength. Fury blazed in his
eyes. “Repeat that again, Jennifer!”
Irritated as well, Jennifer raised her voice several decibels. “I said I want to break up with you, Treyton!
Do you understand that? It means I want to part ways with you forever!”
Such rage consumed Treyton that his blood boiled. Clutching at her arm, he yanked her down and
pinned her on his lap before locking an arm around her slender waist.
In the next moment, he lifted his right hand and brought it down on her butt.
Smack!
A crisp smack split the air.
The stinging pain short-circuited Jennifer’s brain.
Meanwhile, Elisha, who was driving, was wholly floored.
