Finish Our Business
Gwendolyn, unfortunately, had run out of patience.
“In that case, I think you should head home first, Logan, Cedrick’s busy with work and won’t be free
anytime soon. He has to work overtime till ten tonight, too. Tell you what, I’ll get him to meet Grandpa at
the Jenson residence once he has knocked off.”
Logan was caught in a tight spot.
No. I can’t leave… I can’t go back without completing the task Old Mr. Jenson has given me.
“Mrs. Jenson, I’m here today because of what happened to Mr. Xander and Mr. Yael. Old Mr. Jenson
already knows that Mr. Jenson locked Mr. Xander up with some thugs and caused him to be badly
bullied. He hopes-”
“Logan, Cedrick did what he did to seek justice for me and Grandpa, and Xander’s merely getting what
he deserves. Are you telling me Grandpa can’t bear to see Xander get a little punishment?” Alas,
Gwendolyn had heard enough and furrowed her brows in displeasure.
“That’s not what I meant, Mrs. Jenson.” Logan replied as a sheepish smile crept across his face. “Old
Mr. Jenson is a strict man, and he agrees that Mr. Xander has overstepped the mark this time. He has
no
objections if Mr. Jenson chooses to hit or whip Mr. Xander, but he doesn’t think a family matter should
be escalated to the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Surely, we can settle this at home, can’t we?”
Gwendolyn leaned back lazily on the couch, her expression turning grimmer by the second.
Is this because of pride? Is Grandpa trying to keep the Jenson family’s internal conflicts out of the
public eye and prevent Xander from getting a criminal record? Or is Grandpa worried that Xander might
not adapt to life in prison and end up losing his mind or killing himself? Or could all these merely be
excuses and Grandpa’s hiding his real
intentions?
Gwendolyn sighed and instinctively glanced at the small bathroom.
Oh, dear… I can’t help but feel sorry for Cedrick. He used to regard Grandpa as his most important
family member, but now, even I have begun to suspect Grandpa’s motives. What if the truth comes to
light one day, only for us to realize it isn’t as pretty as we thought? What will happen to Cedrick?
Seconds later, Gwendolyn looked away and lowered her eyes. “Does Grandpa think Xander can
survive sixty lashes?”
“Mr. Xander has a weak constitution. Sixty lashes of the whip will undoubtedly cost him his life.
However, the purpose of Mr. Jenson punishing Mr. Xander is to teach him a lesson and not to kill him.
In that case, why can’t we be more flexible? Why must we follow the rules so rigidly?” Logan answered.
“Stop beating around the bush, Logan. Please speak your mind.”
“Old Mr. Jenson hopes that the sixty lashes can be doled out over three sessions and that Mr. Xander
be -given half a month to heal between each of them.”
Gwendolyn instantly fell silent, but her expression was dark and gloomy.
This is about imposing just punishment, so why must they always negotiate and text Cedrick’s limit? I
can’t believe they’re even suggesting an installment plan! Do they think this is a loan repayment? In
any case, it’s clear that Grandpa dotes on that grandson of his…
Since Gwendolyn wasn’t retorting, Logan continued, “Old Mr. Jenson has also said that if Mr. Jenson
agrees to those terms, he’ll immediately tell him the truth he wants to know.”
Gwendolyn once again fell silent and stole glances at the bathroom.
I don’t think Cedrick has any intention of coming out, huh? This has to do with the truth of his parents’
fatal accident all those years ago. As much as I want to, I can’t decide for him.
“You should go back, Logan. I’ll relay the message from you and Grandpa to Cedrick. Whether he
accepts it or not, I’ll make sure he calls Grandpa as soon as possible. How does that sound?”
Logan had no choice but to give in. “It’s getting late. Old Mr. Jenson isn’t in the best of health and
needs to rest early. I hope Mr. Jenson can spare a thought for him and call him within the next thirty
minutes.”
“All right, I understand. Grandpa’s health comes first.” Gwendolyn said politely before getting up and
seeing Logan off. “Have a safe trip, Logan.”
After closing the office door, Gwendolyn walked toward the ensuite bathroom and pushed the glass
door, only to see Cedrick leaning against the wall, seemingly deep in thought as he pondered
Valentino’s terms.
“What do you think about Grandpa’s terms, Hubby?”
“What would you do if it were up to you, Darling?” Cedrick asked.
Knowing how much Valentino meant to Cedrick, Gwendolyn decided to drop her charge against Xander
for almost implicating her.
“Xander’s mainly responsible for almost harming Grandpa, but since Grandpa doesn’t wish to pursue
the matter, it’s okay to give him a lighter punishment. Besides, given Xander’s character, I’m sure he’d
do something stupid again soon. We can catch him in the act then and teach him a well-deserved
lesson. Compared to that, I think the truth behind Mom and Dad’s accident is way more important,”
Gwendolyn reasoned. She was as clear-headed and astute as always. “However, we can’t guarantee
that Grandpa will be entirely honest with us. Therefore, I suggest we hear the truth from both sides
while Xander’s still locked up and has no means of communicating with the rest of the family.”
Cedrick gazed at his wife standing at the bathroom door, unable to take his eyes off her.
Wow. Even though Gwenny’s just standing there and analyzing the situation for me, the white glow
around her from the office lights really brings out her ethereal beauty. Every word and action of hers
takes my breath away……..
The man strode forward and grabbed her slender waist.
“Darling, you’re the best thing that has ever happened to me,” Cedrick muttered before kissing
Gwendolyn.
The kiss quickly spiraled out of control, and the couple gave in to their carnal urges.
Overcome with desire, Cedrick felt his chest rising and falling as he tenderly bit his wife’s lip.
“Darling he whispered, his voice deep and sexy. “Let’s finish our business here before dealing with
Uncle Yael and meeting Grandpa at the Jenson residence.”
“But…”
Before Gwendolyn could say anything more, Cedrick grabbed her bottom and lifted her, forcing her to
wrap her legs around his waist to keep herself from falling.
Just like that, she found herself in Cedrick’s tight, warm embrace.
“Hubby, this is your workplace, the Federal Bureau of Investigation…”
“I know. But this is my Federal Bureau of Investigation and my office, and you’re my gorgeous wife.
As Cedrick leaned in for another kiss, Gwendolyn hastily pushed him away.
“No. We can’t. T-The door’s not locked…”
The next second, Cedrick carried her toward the door to lock it before gently placing her on the desk,
his eyes burning with love and desire.
“What about now, Darling? Do you still have any reason to stop us from doing the deed?”
Gwendolyn hugged the man’s neck, her face flushed from the excitement of knowing where there were
and what they were about to do.
One thing was for sure-her rosy cheeks made her look even checkier and more alluring
She batted her eyelashes and pondered over her husband’s words. “I… guess not.”
Satisfied, Cedrick began littering kisses along her collarbone, and within seconds, the air in the office
was thick with sexual tension.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Unfortunately, the couple had barely reached home base when they were interrupted by a knock on the
door.
“Someone’s here,” Gwendolyn uttered.
Cedrick froze for a moment before continuing to hug her. “Ignore him. I have more important business
to settle with my wife.”
Gwendolyn would’ve been fine going along with that, but since the officer outside was clueless about
their secret shenanigans, he continued to knock on the door.
“Mr. Jenson, Logan called after he returned to the Jenson residence. Old Mr. Jenson has fainted again.
He would like you to head back now to check on your grandfather.”
Gwendolyn and Cedrick instantly locked gazes, their expressions grave and solemn. Oh, dear…
Grandpa fainted, huh?
“All right, I got it. I’ll be there soon,” Cedrick hastily replied.
Now that the sexual tension in the room had dissipated, he walked to the coat rack and quickly put on
his military jacket.
Grandpa has fainted again. That’s no small matter.
Naturally, Gwendolyn could see the worry and anxiety etched on her husband’s face. No matter how
much he tried, he couldn’t hide his concerns for Valentino.
She jumped off the desk and held Cedrick’s hand after he had put his jacket on
“Come on. Let’s head to the Jenson residence. I’ll go wherever you go.”
Cedrick placed a hand on the back of Gwendolyn’s head and kissed her tenderly.
“I’ll make it up to you when we’re home, Darling.”
Argh, I’m upset that we didn’t manage to go all the way. It almost feels like I’ve let Gwendolyn down.
Then again, what choice do I have? Grandpa has fainted, and I have to rush back to see him.
