Chapter 522 Jealousy

Given Cedrick’s personality, Gwendolyn could tell his statement had an underlying message.

She raised her hand and flicked his forehead in annoyance.

“Quit fooling around! I’m talking about work!”

Rubbing the tender spot on his forehead, Cedrick scowled before retorting. “I’m not fooling around. It’s
you who’s reading too much between the lines, Gwenny.”

Gwendolyn gaped at him in disbelief.

Did he just imply that my thinking is impure?

Gwendolyn raised her hand and flicked Cedrick on the head once more. “That just shows what a bad
influence you have on me. Your fault for talking dirty all the time.”

Cedrick was at a loss for words.

Realizing that anything he said at that moment could be used against him, he admitted defeat and
lowered his head meekly, no longer arguing with Gwendolyn.

-Pleased that Cedrick had stopped messing around, Gwendolyn leaned forward and pecked his lips.
Just

then, she remembered the fact that the open tender had been postponed by an extra thirty minutes.
Curiosity filled her heart as she asked, “Neal is the crowned prince of Astoria and the rightful heir to the
throne. He’s someone with great power and authority. How could a single text from you cause a man of
principles to bend the rules without any hint of hesitation? How did you do it? What did you tell him?”

Cedrick cocked a brow. “You really wanna know, Darling?”



Gwendolyn nodded.

A devilish grin appeared on his handsome face. “It’s a secret.”

Gwendolyn fell silent at his reply.

Seeing that she was about to get angry, Cedrick quickly but genuinely changed the subject. “All right,
Darling, go get ready. If we can’t get to the open tender in the next half an hour, I’ll just tell them that
we’re not going.”

Gwendolyn tossed him a side-eye and decided to settle work first. After freshening up in the bathroom.
she put on a gown and applied a facial mask for five minutes before putting on her makeup.

Within half an hour, the two of them arrived at the open tender..

Only the bodyguards and Queena the assistant awaited them at the entrance. All of the guests were
already seated inside the hall long ago.

At the sight of the two of them, Queena hurried over to greet them. “Mr. Jenson, Ms. Harris, you’re
finally here.”

Out of habit, she took Gwendolyn’s hand and led her into the event hall. As they walked, she
whispered, “Are you feeling better, Ms. Harris? Are you still in pain? Do you need medications?”

“Huh?” A confused look appeared on Gwendolyn’s face. “What are you talking about?”

Queena thought Gwendolyn was embarrassed. She tutted as a look of understanding appeared on her
face The citizens of Astoria are open-minded. We’re all aware of the possible relations between a man
and a woman. Besides, we’re both women. There’s no need to be shy, Ms. Harris

Gwendolyn was rendered speechless. What is she going on about?



Turning around, Gwendolyn shot Cedrick, who was behind her, a sharp glare.

What on earth did he tell Neal to postpone the open tender?

To her exasperation, Cedrick merely flashed her an innocent smile.

Gwendolyn narrowed her eyes coldly as a silent threat.

Pulling her closer, Queena lowered her voice and continued to gossip in Gwendolyn’s car. “Ms. Harris, I
assume Mr. Jenson was wild, wasn’t he? Otherwise, how would you have gotten injured?” She
chuckled. “You’re so blessed. Ms. Harris. I’m jealous!”

Gwendolyn remained silent.

Throughout the whole time, she did not give Queena any response. Tired of speaking to herself,
Queena eventually dropped the subject. At that moment, they arrived at the entrance to the hall.

The private topic immediately came to a halt.

The hall was eerily silent with occasional whispers from the audience.

Under the skeptical gaze of the crowd, Queena led Gwendolyn and Cedrick to their seats in the front
row.

After all of the guests had arrived, the open tender officially began. Any grumblings or complaints of the
delay due to Gwendolyn and Cedrick being late were hushed.

Neal walked up to the stage and delivered the mandatory opening speech.

After a few short minutes, the audience erupted into applause as Neal gave a curt bow, signaling the
end of the speech. As he stepped off the stage, the staff of the open tender entered the hall and



approached the representatives of all the different corporations, collecting and labeling their flash
drives, which contained the business proposal of their respective companies.

Everything was done in an effective and orderly manner.

The spacious hall was filled with guests. It took the staff ten whole minutes to finish collecting the flash
drives from every representative,

Once again, Neal got on the stage. “Ladies and gentlemen, the diplomacy department of Dovil Group
would need at least an hour to go through all your proposals. During the intermission, guests are free to
move around or enjoy the performance prepared by the musical bands of Astoria.”

As he spoke, the staff began carrying music stands and instruments, such as the drums and the piano,
onto the stage.

Neal had spent a great deal amount to invite a few star bands to perform at the open tender as a treat.

After the night she had, Gwendolyn did not have the energy to move around. She chose to remain in
her seat and enjoy the performances,

Soon, the stars filled the stage. At the strike of the first chord, the solemn atmosphere in the hall gave
way to a joyous one.

The supposed serious occasion had turned into an exuberant concert as the bands played song after
song

Although the performances seemed inappropriate for the event, the atmosphere was inexplicably
harmonious.

Gwendolyn was fully immersed in watching the performance. The staff had even prepared exquisite
appetizers for the guests who stayed back to watch the show.



The atmosphere got more and more lively as the upbeat music blasted in the hall.

At the peak of the performance, the handsome lead vocalist of the band took off his shirt and showed
off his abs, rousing an echo of cheers from the female audience.

Even Gwendolyn raised her eyebrows in surprise as her heart began to beat faster.

As she was watching the performance, Cedrick kept his eyes on her. A hint of jealousy could be felt
emitting from his gaze.

“Like what you see?”

Snacking on the scrumptious appetizer, Gwendolyn gave him a distracted nod. “Mm-hmm.”

-Whose abs look better, then? His? Or mine?”

Gwendolyn turned to meet his eye and winked mischievously at him before turning her head back to
face the stage. “Yours,”

Her answer soothed the jealousy in Cedrick’s heart. Picking up a small appetizer, he brought it to her
mouth to feed her. “Then why are you only looking at him and not me, Gwenny?”

Gwendolyn cocked her head to look at him once more.

That was not an easy question to answer. After pondering for a while, Gwendolyn decided to ignore the
question.

She pretended not to have heard what Cedrick had asked and continued to enjoy the performance,
laughing carefreely.



Cedrick took a deep breath to calm himself and reigned in his anger, trying his best not to explode in
anger in public. He turned around and gave her the cold shoulder as he sulked in silence.

I can’t believe she’s ignoring me to admire the lead vocalist’s abs. When we get back to the hotel, I’ll
show her what I can do! I’ll make her pay with her body, so much so that she can’t get out of bed for
three days and three nights!

At that thought. Cedrick felt much better.

Just as Gwendolyn was mesmerized by the performance, a slim figure in a white dress walked past
her, catching her attention instantly.

Turning to look at the figure, she concluded that it was the same silhouette that she had seen the other
day at the charity gala back in Salinsburgh, Chanaca.

Just as she was about to walk over to the girl, the girl had already taken a seat in the front row on the
other side of the hall.

To Gwendolyn’s frustration, the girl’s side profile was obstructed by the bodies of the tall men sitting
between the two of them.

As the seconds ticked by, Gwendolyn was getting more and more confused as she played the image of
the girl in the back of her mind.

She was certain that the girl looked familiar..

“What’s wrong, Darling?”

The slight shift in Gwendolyn’s demeanor did not escape Cedrick’s notice.



Looking serious, Gwendolyn said in a low voice, “Hubby. I think I saw the figure again. It’s like what
happened with Evelyn.”

Even though Terry had given them the names of all the girls in white dresses at the charity gala, all of
them were from all over the world and were of significant status, which made investigating a lot more
difficult.

There had not been much progress from Elven’s side.

Cedrick followed Gwendolyn’s gaze. Just as she was about to get up, he stopped her in her path. “Isn’t
your body sore? Don’t walk so much. I’ll go check it out.”

Gwendolyn nodded.

Cedrick was about to make his way over when the band had finished performing the final song. Neal
returned back onstage, ready to announce the party that Dovil Group had ultimately decided to
collaborate with.

That was the most important announcement and the highlight of the whole occasion. Without much
choice, Cedrick had to sit down again to listen to Neal’s announcement.
