Chapter 293 Carried By Gwenny
He sounded frail. Sticking his nose into the crook of Gwendolyn’s neck, he blatantly took in whiffs of her body scent, and very soon, he fell asleep.
Gwendolyn held his back and patted him once in a while. She kept her eyes on the street lights outside the window and began to zone out.
When Nico saw that Cedrick had fallen asleep, he slowed down the car and drove more steadily.
After half an hour, they arrived at the Jenson residence.
The Jenson residence was designed in such a way that all the cars had to be parked at a designated garage. The passengers then had to walk through a series of winding paths before arriving at the residential area.
Cedrick was deep asleep. Due to atrophy, his stamina was worse than before.
Gwendolyn could not bear to wake him up and planned to carry him back gently.
Nico was stunned and reached out before saying, “Ms. Gwendolyn, why don’t you let me do it?”
“No need she replied tersely before scooping Cedrick into her arms and walking toward Harrick Villa.
Nico stared at her retreating figure in astonishment. It took him a while before he returned to his senses. Is this a case of role reversal where Boss is the princess being carried?
He was utterly shocked!
The sight of Cedrick’s one–hundred–and–eighty–eight centimeters tall body in Gwendolyn’s arms brought about a sense of dissonance. Yet, at the same time, it looked right.
Nico was truly happy for his boss.
Holding back his tears, he jogged up to them.
Since Gwendolyn was wearing high heels and Cedrick was heavier than her, it was a little difficult for her to carry him. Besides that, they had to walk through the winding paths to get to Harrick Villa.
Nico spotted the sweat on her forehead and felt sorry for her. Even her heels were making loud noises.
“Ms. Gwendolyn, why don’t I carry him instead?”
There was no response from Gwendolyn. She took a few deep breaths before continuing to walk forward.
Nico continued to persuade her to do otherwise. “Mr. Jenson’s condition doesn’t affect his weight. He’s quite heavy. If you continue to carry him, your arms will ache tomorrow. Why don’t you let me take him?”
Gwendolyn shushed him softly and looked down at Cedrick with heartache.
“I want to experience it for myself, so I know how someone like him with atrophy feels after carrying me all the way down from the Ferguson residence.”
Nico was slightly stunned and touched to hear that.
After a while, he decided to take Cedrick from Gwendolyn’s arms and carried him on his back.
“You!”

Nico smiled. “To Mr. Jenson, you are more important than his life. If your arms ache tomorrow, he will be heartbroken and feel very guilty. So please, Ms. Gwendolyn, stop arguing with me.”
It was easy for him to carry Cedrick, and he walked a lot faster than Gwendolyn. Gwendolyn ended up following behind him.
After putting Cedrick on the bed, Nico left the villa.
Gwendolyn sat on the bed and massaged her sore arms.
Staring at Cedrick’s handsome face, she lost herself in her thoughts again.
Recently, she had read up on a lot of information.
At present, the S404 RNA virus was illegal, and there was not much information on it, let alone an antidote.
Cedrick had been taking the medicines prescribed by Joshua, but those medicines were only meant as supplements. Their effects were negligible, and they certainly were not able to treat Cedrick’s illness.
Perhaps it’s time I consider Charles‘ method?
What if he really does know how to cure Cedrick?
She had mixed feelings and was very confused.
In the end, she had no choice but to take the risk and give it a try as that was her only option now.
That night, the Ferguson family became a trending topic online.
Treyton had even made arrangements so that all top ten trending topics online had something to do with the Ferguson family.

Meanwhile, in the garden of the Ferguson residence, Sherman, who was finally sober, was being hung from the tree and whipped by his father. His body was covered with blood.
