Chapter 279

A Compromise “Wait!” Gwendolyn stopped the bodyguards and stepped forward.

“Spill.

What’s the cure?” The bodyguards immediately let go of Charles and took two steps back.

44% +15 Bonus “Do you really want to know, Gwen?” Charles licked his teeth and grinned wickedly as
he said, “I can tell you, but you will have to agree to the three conditions I told you before.

As soon as you agree to them, Cedrick can be cured.

” Gwendolyn frowned and gritted her teeth angrily.

“You’re so shameless, Charles.

” “You flatter me, Gwen.

Think about my offer again carefully.

Moreover, I’m not inferior to Cedrick, either.

If you’re with me, I will make sure you become the happiest woman in the world.

” Amused, Gwendolyn chuckled.

“Cedrick is the richest man in Salinsburgh, not to mention his other titles as the CEO of Jenson Group,
the head of the Jenson family, and the head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Apart from having power and influence, he also outshines you in his looks and physique.



Meanwhile, you are just a convicted felon and a prisoner.

Are you even worthy of comparing yourself to him?” Charles‘ expression darkened.

There was indeed a significant gap between him and Cedrick, but it might not be the case for long!
Besides… “Cedrick doesn’t have much time left, and because of that, I’ve already won!” His words
enraged Gwendolyn.

She grabbed the pistol that was attached to one of her bodyguards‘ waist and pressed the barrel
against Charles‘ forehead.

“There’s no way I will ever agree to your conditions.

I will end you right here if you don’t speak up immediately!” she demanded coldly.

However, Charles wasn’t afraid at all.

His once handsome and refined face had now become rough and weathered.

“Be careful, Gwen.

It won’t be good for any of us if the gun accidentally goes off.

After all, Cedrick will die if I’m dead.

I’m well aware that you can’t possibly kill me, so there’s no need for you to use this method to scare
me.

” Charles was the one who held absolute control over the situation then.

Still pointing the gun at Charles, Gwendolyn scoffed, “You have no right to negotiate conditions with
me, Charles.



If you don’t speak up, I’ll have someone force this drug down your throat.

It should make you suffer enough.

Care to give it a try?” Charles laughed even harder.

“You’re not going to use the drug on me, and you know why.

If I really can’t stand it and choose to commit suicide, the way to save Cedrick will be buried with me in
the grave.

You will never know how to save him in your lifetime, and you can only watch him die helplessly.

That feeling should be even more unbearable, don’t you think?” < 1/4 2.

44% Chapter 279 A Compromise Charles had gotten hold of Gwendolyn’s biggest concern.

+15 Bonus Gwendolyn dug her nails fiercely into her palm as her arm trembled with tension.

It seemed to be the only way to keep herself rational.

“Why should I believe you? Perhaps you don’t even know the cure for the S404 RNA virus.

You could just be deceiving me and seizing the opportunity to save yourself.

” Charles then made a compromise.

“How about this: you find a way to get Asher to bail me out and grant me my freedom.

In exchange, I will tell you the method to alleviate Cedrick’s current condition.

Then you can see for yourself if I am lying and decide whether or not to agree to my other two
conditions.



” Gwendolyn raised an eyebrow as she said, “Deal!” With that, she lowered the gun and handed it back
to the bodyguard.

“However, I need to plan the matter of your release and find an excuse.

Asher will be suspicious if I ask him for two favors in such a short amount of time.

” Charles shrugged.

“Okay.

I’ll tell you what I know the day I’m released from prison, After all, I’m healthy and can afford to wait,
unlike a certain someone,” he said, hinting at Cedrick’s condition again.

Gwendolyn was unwilling to send Charles back to prison unscathed.

Taking a deep breath, she turned to him and smiled apologetically.

“One more thing,” she said.

“The reason I asked Asher to sneak you out was to give you a beating.

If you return unscathed, it will be hard for me to explain the situation.

I guess you have no choice but to bear with it.

” The smug grin on Charles‘ face instantly vanished.

Ignoring the change in his expression, Gwendolyn glanced at the bodyguard beside her and ordered,
“Make sure he gets a good beating before you send him back.

” “Understood.



” After giving the order, Gwendolyn turned around and walked away.

Soon enough, the sound of punches and kicks came from behind.

Occasional muffled groans of pain could be heard from Charles‘ gagged mouth.

The sound of him being beaten up was a comfort to Gwendolyn.

She didn’t go far.

Leaning against the wall by the door, she listened quietly and waited until Charles was knocked out
completely half an hour later.

His face was all braised, and his body was covered in blood.

He also suffered from a broken rib, but it wouldn’t kill him.

After the bodyguards put the black hood over his head again, they carried him out and handed him
over to the waiting person.

Gwendolyn remained there until the car that would send Charles back to the prison drove away.

Then, staring at the two bodyguards, she asked, “Do you know who I am?” They exchanged uneasy
glances before replying, “You are Ms. Harris, Mr. Asher’s younger sister.

” “Wrong.

” Arms crossed, Gwendolyn corrected them coldly, “I am the youngest and the most doted–on 2/4 22
Fr, 2 Chapter 279 A Compromise child of the Harris family.

I am the precious darling of my brothers.



” Bewildered, the bodyguards stared at her with confused expressions on their faces.

4.

44% +15 Bonus Gwendolyn continued, “Asher ordered you to come here to lend me a hand and
ensure my safety.

If he or anyone else from the Harris family finds out about my conversation with Charles today, what do
you think will happen to those who don’t obey instructions and spread rumors?” Startled, the color
drained from their faces.

“Don’t worry, Ms. Harris.

We heard nothing.

” Gwendolyn nodded with satisfaction.

“Remember what you just said.

You know what to do if Asher asks about this.

He can reprimand you all he wants, but if any of you dares to tell anyone else what happened, I’ll make
sure you suffer so much that you’ll wish you were dead!” “Of course, Ms. Harris.

You have nothing to worry about.

” “Okay.

There’s no need to send me back.

I can go back to the Jenson residence myself.



” When Gwendolyn reached the Jenson residence, it was already evening.

The various traditional wooden carvings on the walls of the Jenson residence exuded a touch of
exquisite classical beauty under the red hues of the setting sun.

Gwendolyn had already become familiar with the route to Cedrick’s villa during this period.

After passing through the winding paths, she arrived at the entrance of the villa.

It was very lively in the garden of the villa.

Cedrick was seated in a chair with a freshly carved wooden plaque placed on the table in front of him.

He was writing characters on the plaque using a large brush with gold plating.

Nico, Neville, Swain, Elven, Ezra, and the others had been summoned to the garden.

They were all gathered around to watch Cedrick as he wrote.

Gwendolyn watched this scene from afar.

It was truly a pleasing sight when a group of handsome men with good physiques gathered together.

Among those eight charming men, Cedrick stood out the most.

Apart from his unparalleled handsome face, his entire demeanor was exceptional.

It took just one glance for Gwendolyn to be unable to take her eyes off him.

Treading lightly, she blended into the crowd behind William, quietly observing the words on the plaque
written by Cedrick.



“Harrick Villa?” Upon hearing Gwendolyn’s voice, everyone turned around to look at her.

“Ms. Gwendolyn.

” “You’re back, Ms. Harris.

” Cedrick’s gaze was the most intense among them.

“Come here, Gwenny.

” ||| 3/4 Chapter 279 A Compromise +15 Bonus After Gwendolyn walked toward Cedrick, he pulled her
into his embrace and let her sit on his lap.

Then, after handing her the brush, he held her hand in his.

Together, they finished the last alphabet of the word “Villa.

” Cedrick was very satisfied with the outcome.

“Hang this plaque outside, you guys.

Nico, get someone to customize an address stone with these two words as well.

Place it in the garden after it’s completed.

” “Okay.

We’ll handle it right away.

” Soon enough, the group of young men left.

Cedrick held Gwendolyn’s hand as they entered the villa.



After allowing Cedrick to lead her to the sofa, she laughed, mocking, “Really? Are you planning to call
this place ‘Harrick Villa‘ from now on? What era are we in? Isn’t it embarrassing that we are still
hanging plaques?” “This is a testimony of our love.

People will envy us.

” Though delighted, Gwendolyn simply smiled and said nothing.

However, as though he had recalled something, Cedrick suddenly became serious and started
checking- her palms, arms, and back for injuries.

Tickled by his actions, she giggled.

“What are you doing, Ceddy? You’re examining me like I’m a criminal.

I didn’t get beaten up, truly!” Cedrick didn’t believe her.

At the laboratory entrance last time, Asher was furious when he learned that the two of them had slept
together.

They had slept together several times recently, and Cedrick knew that Asher was home today, so he
was certain the latter couldn’t have let her off so easily.

When Cedrick didn’t find any injuries, he shifted his gaze downward and stared at her thick denim
jeans.

“Are your legs injured? Come, let me have a look in the room!” |||
