Chapter 461 Heartless And Cruel Jasmine pouted unhappily upon recalling this matter. âI heard from Craig that sheâs sick, and it seems quite serious. He didnât want anyone to disturb her rest and recovery. No visitors are permitted, and we are forbidden to speak loudly in the house.â
Gwendolyn frowned and asked cautiously. âWhat kind of serious illness could lead to restricted access to the villa? Have you checked on her?â
Jasmine shook her head. âWhatâs there to see when someoneâs sick?â
Gwendolyn held her hand and tried to persuade her. âShe has just moved into the Newton. residence a few days ago and has fallen sick. Craig is also making a huge deal about her illness. Arenât you curious about how serious it is? Donât you want to go and see her?â
Jasmine contemplated for a moment, Truth be told, she was curious about it.
Itâs only been a few days, and itâs so serious that Craig has to give orders to everyone at home. Is it really some rare illness? But I donât dare to visit her.
Thinking about how Craig would react if he found out, she shuddered and shook her head. vehemently.
âI donât wish to see her. If Craig found out, he would kill me. Iâd better stay put.â
Failing to persuade Jasmine, Gwendolyn had no choice but to let the matter slide.
After returning to Harrick Villa, she called Treyton again.
âI think Jennifer is seriously ill.â
Treyton stood up abruptly, his eyes filled with shock and anger. âWhat did Craig do to her? She rarely falls ill. I even accompanied her to the hospital for a full body check-up because of her filming requirements not long ago. Thereâs no way she would suddenly develop a serious illness!â
Gwendolyn patted his shoulder reassuringly, getting him to sit down.
âTreyton, calm down. I donât believe it either.â
Cedrick sat at the side quietly, contemplating the situation as well.
âCraig has canceled all of Jenniferâs schedules. If she really isnât sick, then itâs highly likely that heâs imprisoning her on purpose.â
Owens Assed attentively and nodded. âI analyzed again and again afterward. Jennifer was Nedavning adisarmally at the homecoming feast. She was perfectly fine when Craig besight be to the business galaâ

Co stand at ber strange âbent that a good thing? Do you want us to argue Gwendolyn giggled. âItâs been said that having an argument every now and then adds spice to your life. It feels surreal when we donât fight.â
He arched a brow and smiled devilishly. âThen, why donât we argue today? You can release some pent-up emotions.â
âHow should we argue?â
Cedrickâs expression turned cold instantly as he uttered grimly, âGwendolyn, it seems youâve been neglecting me lately. Whatâs wrong with wanting to sleep with my wife? How could you restrict me on this? Youâre heartless and cruel!â
Gwendolyn frowned and reached out to grab his ear.
âOuch! Have mercy one me, Darling!
Gwendolyn ignored him and grew angry. âCedrick, are you looking for trouble on purpose by picking a fight? Youâre speaking your true thoughts and complaining at the same time.â
He frowned and looked aggrieved. âIâm only giving an example. How could I possibly hold any grievances against you?â
Gwendolyn snorted coldly. How could I not see through your schemes?
âYou called me Gwendolyn just now. Letâs head upstairs for your punishment.â
Cedrickâs face paled. Did I miscalculate and dig myself a hole!
âDarling...â he whined with a bitter expression.
âSpit it out.â
Cedrick wrapped his arms around her waist and buried her head in her neck. He took a deep breath and replied, âPlease be gentle.â
Gwendolyn suppressed a smile and rubbed the back of his head. âI promise to make feel good.â
you She grabbed his tie, wrapped it around her hand a few times, and pulled him up seductively. âLetâs go and receive your punishment.â
Cedrick let her drag him domineeringly. She was like a drug that he willingly allowed. himself to be addicted to.
It was around noon, and it only took a small fake argument before things spiraled out of control for the couple.
Gwendolyn began sending out invitations for her tea party in the evening. The event would take place at Gardens Hotel.
Treyton returned to the Harris residence on Mount Tranquil.
Since his father passed away, he hadnât returned in a long time. He had been staying in one of his properties.
He hadnât seen Asher in a long time and didnât expect to meet him by his bedside.
Sienna brought him inside. As she led the way, she said, âHe has a severe side effect from the time spent kneeling on the ground reciting Heagurn Sutra and refusing to leave even when it was raining. His knees ache every time it rains now. He canât walk, and his voice hasnât returned to normal.â
Treyton sighed as he felt a pang in his heart. âEvelyn was the one responsible. Although Asher was at fault, Kiddo didnât really blame him for it. Why does he have to torment himself like this?â
A long sigh escaped Siennaâs lips. Sorrow filled her eyes as she said. âForget it. Itâs all in the past. Thereâs no need to bring it up again.â
Treyton nodded and followed her upstairs. Suddenly remembering something, he asked, âIs Asher still finding Evelyn? Howâs the search going? Is there any news
