Is Boss Strapped For Cash

The four troops retreated to their headquarters.

Gwendolyn and Cedrick, accompanied by Nico, who carried Jennifer on his back, hastened their return

to the Harrick Villa. Treyton and Summer had been waiting at the entrance for a while.

Upon learning about their plan. Treyton paced back and forth at the door restlessly, resembling a cat on

a tin roof.

Summer found a chair and sat down, keeping Treyton company by the entrance.

The surroundings were enveloped in darkness, and the villa’s entrance was illuminated by the faint

glow of streetlights, casting long, slender shadows of Treyton.

Summer could not stay silent anymore. “Mr. Treyton, can you please settle down for a moment? You’re

making me dizzy. Why don’t you take a seat for a while?”

Treyton paid no attention to her and continued his restless back-and-forth movement.

The night had grown considerably late.

With no news from Gwendolyn, Treyton could not help but wonder if everything was going according to

plan. At this juncture, how does she expect me to sit still?

Summer, unable to persuade him, shook her head in resignation. She could only keep him company

out of boredom while waiting for Nico.

After some time, the sound of hurried footsteps in the distance reached their ears.

Treyton turned his head, and even in the dim light outside, his gaze was immediately drawn to Jennifer.

who was being carried on Nico’s back. “Jennifer?”

With a sense of urgency, he rushed over and decisively took her from Nico, holding her tightly in his

arms.

As Treyton observed her pale face and the dark red bruises that stood out on her wrists and neck, his

eyes turned red. He looked at Gwendolyn and asked, “Kiddo, what happened? Is she injured?”

Gwendolyn sighed. “Let’s go in first. It’s not appropriate to discuss it here.”

Treyton nodded in response. He carried Jennifer and hurriedly made his way to Harrick Villa

The other three followed behind closely.

Two minutes later, Treyton learned about the full story from Gwendolyn.

Bang!

The sound of a table being pounded resonated from inside the villa, startling the birds perched on the

trees in the garden

Treyton’s anger surged, his eyes filled with redness as he wished to teach Craig a lesson. “How could

he

imprison his own sister? He’s nothing but a monster!”

The atmosphere in the living room grew exceptionally heavy.

Jennifer was settled in one of the guest rooms, and Summer took care of her, assisting her in changing

into fresh clothes and tending to her body.

Gwendolyn and Nico maintained a serious demeanor, their gazes lowered.

Cedrick’s lips twitched as he coldly interrupted the solemn atmosphere. “You know, this coffee table,

crafted from delicate crystal glass, was imported all the way from Yartran. Anyone, including family

members, who breaks it will have to pay full price for it.”

Gwendolyn, Treyton, and Nico were bereft of words upon hearing that.

Still visibly affected by the shock. Treyton looked incredulously at Cedrick with his bloodshot eyes.

“Jennifer and I are facing such a difficult situation, yet you’re concerned about the cost of a crystal

coffee table?”

Nico rubbed his nose and chimed in, “Cedrick, you seem a bit strapped for cash lately. Did you get

yourself into some mischief that led to Gwendolyn deducting your allowance?”

This time, it was Gwendolyn who did not know what to say. She looked at Cedrick, her eyes reflecting a

mix of curiosity and questioning.

Facing the collective gaze of the three, Cedrick maintained his composure and explained, “I’m only

saying that because Gwenny has a particular fondness for this new coffee table. Even a single crack

would be unacceptable in her eyes.

There was a subtle change in the atmosphere in the living hall.

Gwendolyn chuckled and exchanged a knowing look with Cedrick as she could understand why he said

that.

Upon sensing Treyton’s anger and the potential for him to act impulsively like what happened the last

time, Cedrick intentionally diverted the conversation, aiming to lighten the atmosphere and mitigate his

animosity toward Craig.

Satisfied, Gwendolyn curved her lips into a faint smile. He’s becoming more and more attentive notes

She turned around to look at Treyton. Upon catching sight of the improved expression on his face, she

steered the discussion back on track. “Treyton, it appears that Jennifer may be facing some mental

challenges that necessitate professional intervention Craig will be closely monitoring her, so it’s crucial

that we art swiftly to facilitate her recovery and restore her to a stable state. Once she has made

substantial progress, we should arrange for an ofta al psychiatric evaluation at the Federal Bureau of

Investigation. This step will enable us to uncover the full extent of Craig’s actions and ensure he is held

accountable for his crime

Treyton nodded, affirming his agreement with the proposed course of action.

Gwendolyn further added “Considering the circumstances, I propose that Jennifer stays at Harrick Villa

during this period”

On that matter, Treyton did not agree night away “Keddo, can I bring her back so that I can look after

her!

His heart was overwhelmed with guilt, especially seeing how Craig had tortured Jennifer to the point

where she was barely recognizable.

The inability to do something for Jennifer weighed on Treyton, suffocating him with guilt.

Gwendolyn sympathized with Treyton’s guilt and understood his desire to make amends for Jennifer.

However, the situation prevented him from taking direct action.

She carefully explained. “No. Treyton. Craig will do everything possible to avoid taking responsibility. If

Cedrick questions him, he’s unlikely to divulge much. considering Cedrick his superior. We need to

allow more time for Jennifer’s treatment. If Craig finds out you’ve brought her back, the situation will

escalate rapidly.

The Abbot family had yet to call off the engagement, so technically. Jennifer was still Remus fiancée.

Treyton had no reason to keep her in his villa.

It would be difficult for him to explain to Craig if the latter found out about it.

Moreover, even if the Abbot family decided to call off the engagement, it would be inappropriate for

Jennifer to stay in Treyton’s villa.

However, it would not be a problem if Jennifer stayed at the Harrick Villa. After all, Gwendolyn and

Jennifer were close friends.

Having regained his rationality. Treyton understood Gwendolyn’s intention and decided to compromise.

“All right. But can I also impose on all of you for a few days?”

Gwendolyn’s gaze shifted toward Cedrick, and their eyes met, creating a moment of silence as neither

of them responded immediately.

Even Treyton was a little abrupt with his request. “I won’t be a burden to you guys. I can help with

household chores, cook for you, and even pay ten times the market price for accommodation and food

expenses.”

Gwendolyn chuckled and said, “You’re quite the joker. Treyton. When a brother visits his sister, there’s

no need to pay for anything!”

Treyton said, “I should do my part! Cedrick is already taking care of everything, including cooking and

house chores, and now he has to look after Jennifer and me as well”

His response left Cedrick speechless.

The atmosphere in the living room gradually became harmonious as they reached a consensus

regarding Jennifers accommodation.

Gwendolyn asked another question, “How’s everything at the Abbot family?”

Treyton replied in a serious tone, I gave Remus a day to think about it. He should be able to give me an

answer by tomorrow morning Barring any unforeseen circumstances, it should be good news.”

“I’m glad to hear that Gwendolyn nodded, heaving a sigh of relief.

With each passing moment, the path forward became clearer, and it seemed that everything was

gradually falling into place.

While they were lost in their thoughts, a piercing scream echoed from the upstairs guest room, abruptly

breaking the silence.

It was Summer’s voice!

Next, they heard Summer crying for help. “Nico! Mr. Jenson! She looks scary! I can’t control her!”

Treyton sprang to his feet and raced upstairs while Gwendolyn and Cedrick followed suit.

As they entered the guest room, a strong metallic scent filled the air.

Summer lay sprawled on the carpet. The once immaculate sheets were now drenched in a deep

crimson.

Treyton’s gaze moved upward, and as he witnessed Jennifer’s actions, his heart skipped a beat, and

his breath caught in his throat.
