Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 802 Weight

Benny is injured? He immediately got out of bed and took a few steps forward.

Gwendolyn immediately asked anxiously, “Where are you guys? Are you still at the basketball court?”

Nico sent his location to Gwendolyn, and the two of them immediately set off.

On the road, Gwendolyn looked quite flustered. She tightly gripped Cedrick’s arm, expressing concern. “If I had

known Benny would get hurt, I should have gone with him…..

The incident happened just within the few minutes she was having breakfast with Cedrick, which she had brought

over for him.

Cedrick knew his wife was worried about their child, so he quickly reassured her, “Don’t worry, Gwenny. Although

Benny is physically weak, he is still a boy after all. Besides, Nico and Joshua are both there, there shouldn’t be any

major problems.”

Gwendolyn kept mum, and the image of Benedict’s potentially pale face surfaced in her mind, filling her with

unbearable self-reproach.

She couldn’t see her child, and her mind was already filled with all sorts of outcomes. She was truly worried.

Upon arriving at the basketball court, Gwendolyn hurriedly opened the door and ran down, searching for the figures

of the two little ones on the court.

The sky had just been washed by rain, leaving the ground somewhat slippery. Cedrick was worried that his wife

might fall, so he quickly ran after her and took hold of her.

“We’re all here now. If you fall, we’ll have to take care of another one. Nico will definitely take Benny to treat the

wound. Let’s go check out Joshua’s medical room.”

Gwendolyn nodded in agreement, saying. “Yes. They will be in the medical room.”

She murmured the words of Cedrick over and over, her mind already in a state of chaos.

She just wanted to see her precious son as soon as possible, to check on the extent of his injuries.

Upon arriving at the medical office, she saw Zendaya puffing her cheeks, blowing air on Benedict’s wound, all while

saying, “If I blow on the wound, it won’t hurt anymore. Mommy said so. Blowing on it is the power of love. Let me

blow on it!”

The little one’s face was filled with utmost seriousness, making her reddened eyes exceptionally adorable.

Benedict remained silent, lifting his eyes to see the two people who had rushed over. “Mommy! Daddy!”

A bandage was wrapped around Benedict’s lower leg, which left Gwendolyn feeling somewhat uneasy.

As soon as Zendaya saw her mother coming, she immediately bounced off the bed and reached out for a hug,

“Mommy, hug me.”

Holding his precious daughter in her arms, Gwendolyn looked at Joshua with a hint of worry and asked, “How is

Benny? Are his injuries serious?”

Joshua said, “There’s nothing to worry about, Gwendolyn. It’s just a minor scrape. Children recover

quickly, so the bandage can be removed tomorrow morning. Just remember not to get it wet during this time, and

avoid eating anything spicy.”

“All right. Thank you very much.”

Cedrick picked up Benedict, and the family of four walked out of the medical office.

Like a child who had done something wrong. Nico followed behind them. Joshua shook his head and walked out.

Gwendolyn looked at Zendaya with a serious expression. “Zendy, can you tell me how your brother got

hurt?”

She had clearly told Nico to take the children to the dedicated badminton court. It was indoors, and the floor was

cushioned, so they generally wouldn’t get scraped or bruised.

It was raining outside, and with no one around to supervise, Gwendolyn thought the mischievous Zendaya would

surely coax Benedict into playing outside with her.

The ground was wet, making it easy to slip and fall. So, it was possible that Benedict’s injury might have something

to do with her mischievous antics.

Sure enough, after Gwendolyn asked that question, the little girl stuck out her tongue and said, “Benny got hurt

because he was protecting me.”

After questioning further, Gwendolyn found out that Zendaya had chased after a small dragonfly in the rain and

accidentally lost her footing. Benedict had used his own body to shield her, preventing her from falling.

The incident happened so abruptly that neither Nico nor Joshua had time to react before Benedict was injured.

However, Nico took all the blame upon himself. Before Gwendolyn could say anything, he immediately apologized,

“I’m sorry, Gwendolyn. It’s all my fault. I was too careless and didn’t manage to hold on to the two kids, which led to

Benny getting hurt. I’m very sorry.”

Indeed, Benedict had always been in poor health and required a lot of care. He was at fault because the child got

hurt under his watch.

Nico hung his head low, filled with self-reproach. “Cedrick, Gwendolyn, all of this is my fault. I failed to take good

care of Benny.”

Gwendolyn was left somewhat bemused by his actions, wondering how he could possibly blame himself for her

child’s mischievous behavior.

“It’s all right. He’s a child, after all-

Before Gwendolyn could finish talking, Cedrick interrupted, “Yes. It’s your fault. Rewards should be given where they

are due, and punishments where they are warranted. Since you acknowledge your mistake, drop and give me three

hundred push-ups right now. Let this not happen again.”

Gwendolyn gave Cedrick a glance. Is this man serious?

“Hey, Nico was just—”

Nico was a stubborn man. He knew what Gwendolyn was about to say and interrupted, “Gwendolyn,

punishment.”

Mill Lake good care of things. I’ll do three hundred push-ups right here as

As soon as he finished speaking. Nico promptly took off his jacket, tossed it to Joshua, and began doing push-ups.

Cedrick gave a light hum with an expressionless look on his face. If not for this jerk, Gwenny would never have

known about my irregular eating habits, let alone my excessive drinking and staying up late. Gwenny is so worried

about me that she’s going to enforce household discipline again. I’ve long wanted to take this opportunity to teach

this young man a lesson.

While Nico panted heavily, an idea suddenly struck Zendaya, and she struggled to get out of Gwendolyn’s arms.

“Mommy, let me down.”

Even though Gwendolyn didn’t know what she was planning, she was certain that the little imp had come up with

another mischievous idea.

Zendaya walked over to Nico, squatted down, and with a gleeful smile revealing her two little canine teeth. she said,

“Uncle Nico, when I see those big guys on TV doing this exercise, they always have something on them called

weight-bearing!”

Everyone was surprised to hear those words.

Gwendolyn chuckled, and she could guess what Zendaya wanted to do.

In the next moment, Zendaya climbed onto Nico’s back, swinging her legs, and said, “Since it’s a punishment from

Daddy, is it okay for me to act as Uncle Nico’s weight-bearing?”

The sudden extra weight made Nico want to laugh and cry at the same time, but he couldn’t refuse it. Resigned to

his fate, he continued with the punishment.

In no time, he had completed three hundred push-ups. Drenched in sweat, Nico smoothly stood up.

Apart from the slight panting, everything was done with ease.

Zendaya immediately clapped her hands and cheered, “Uncle Nico, you’re so amazing! My daddy can do

it too!”

Seeing that the little girl was about to get himself into trouble, Cedrick quickly picked her up, saying, “All right,

Zendy. Benny needs to go back to the hospital room. We should also head back.”

Benedict’s activity level today had exceeded the usual. It would be best to go back and have a thorough check-up.

“Oh. All right, then.” Reluctantly, Zendaya wrapped her arms around Cedrick’s neck. Compared to having fun, she

cared about her brother more.

The

group returned to the laboratory ward. Benedict’s complexion was somewhat pale. All the way there, he had been

pursing his lips, not uttering a word.

Gwendolyn, worried, gently held his small hand. “Do you feel unwell anywhere? You must tell me, okay?”
