Chapter 549 Let Us See Who Tires Out First

Cedrick swiftly swung open the basement door when he heard the excruciating scream.

As the lights flickered on, he was met with a scene of chaos and destruction.

The tools intended for Gwendolyn's release lay shattered, a result of her uncontrollable frenzy.

At that moment, she resembled a wild creature, fierce and untamed.

Amidst the disarray, Cedrick's primary concern was Gwendolyn's well-being.

He carefully scanned her body, relieved to find no visible wounds or traces of blood. However, her piercing red eyes remained fixed upon him, unwavering and intense, as if she regarded him as her target. "Gwenny?" Cedrick called out, but his words were met with silence.

It was clear that she had yet to break free from her maniac state.

In that instant, Cedrick comprehended Gwendolyn's motives. She had deliberately lured him into opening the door by emitting an unfamiliar sound.

Despite Gwendolyn's loss of consciousness, her instincts remained sharp.

Cedrick stood his ground, maintaining a safe distance, waiting for her to dismantle the sandbags and launch herself toward him.

Within two minutes, the final sandbag was reduced to tatters, leaving a trail of scattered sand in its wake.

Gwendolyn, resembling a terrifying apparition, launched herself at Cedrick with astonishing speed.

A resounding slap whizzed through the air.

Cedrick's quick reflexes enabled him to seize her wrist, deftly avoiding the blow.

The duo engaged in a fierce confrontation in the basement.

In the past, they had avoided physical confrontations in the bedroom as Cedrick was concerned that Gwendolyn might inadvertently damage something or injure herself amid the turmoil. However, the altered basement was stripped of any sharp objects. Hence, Cedrick could carefully plan his movements to ensure Gwendolyn's safety.

"Come on, Darling. Let's battle, and we shall see who tires first."

Cedrick had become Gwendolyn's singular target as their clash began.

Trapped with no viable escape, Cedrick refused to allow himself to be a mere punching bag for Gwendolyn's fury. He couldn't risk sustaining injuries that would anger her further.

Hence, Cedrick was left with no choice but to engage in a physical confrontation. He had to find a way to engage in the fight while minimizing harm.

Gwendolyn, fueled by her frenzy, unleashed a barrage of forceful strikes honed by her background in martial arts. Her attacks were precise, targeting vulnerable areas with relentless intensity.

Cedrick found himself in a precarious position, having to withstand her onslaught while avoiding causing her harm. With unwavering focus, he skillfully evaded her powerful strikes.

The intense confrontation dragged on for over half an hour, and the discrepancy in physical stamina between a man and a woman became evident. Gwendolyn's strikes became less aggressive, and her movements more erratic and sluggish.

Cedrick seized the opportunity to launch a controlled counterattack without causing lasting harm.

Ten minutes later, the malicious intent that had fueled Gwendolyn's earlier attacks began to wane, replaced by weariness and a flicker of surrender.

Eventually, she succumbed to exhaustion and collapsed in Cedrick's arms.

After their fierce altercation, the duo was drenched in sweat.

Cedrick carried Gwendolyn to the bedroom and helped her clean up with a shower before they headed to the laboratory.

The unexpected events had caused them to arrive at the lab at three in the morning.

Joshua had been working late shifts for a few days, disrupting his sleep schedule. He felt exceptionally tired tonight. Despite his exhaustion, he managed to administer the necessary IV treatment flawlessly. Once Gwendolyn had finished the infusion, Cedrick took her back to Harrick Villa.

By then, it was six in the morning, and the sky had slowly brightened.

Cedrick, who hadn't slept a wink, fought against the weariness and carried Gwendolyn to their bedroom for much-needed rest.

They slept soundly, undisturbed by the passing hours.

Gwendolyn finally stirred awake at three in the afternoon.

She noticed the firm embrace that had encircled her petite waist throughout her slumber, and as she shifted, she caught sight of Cedrick peacefully sleeping beside her.

His facial features were finely sculpted, his skin flawless, and even in his slumber, he exuded a captivating handsomeness.

Gwendolyn found herself mesmerized by his delicate features. With a playful touch, she traced her dainty fingertips along the bridge of his nose.

Cedrick opened his eyes, and the first thing he did was pull Gwendolyn closer, showering her with an overwhelming storm of kisses and affectionate greetings.

Gwendolyn couldn't help but giggle as his kisses tickled her. She placed her hand on his face and gently pushed him away.

"Stop fooling around. How did last night go?" she asked, her tone turning serious.

In response, Cedrick swiftly regained his composure and proceeded to explain every intricate detail of the unforeseen events from the previous night.

Their attempt to confine Gwendolyn in the basement and let other objects serve as her outlets for release had failed.

The bedroom was silent as both of them contemplated the situation at hand.

"Hubby, why don't we sleep in the basement tonight? We'll remove any obstacles or potential dangers. You can fight me to exhaust my energy. But you have to promise not to get hurt. What do you think?"

The solution would also leave him exhausted.

After the fight, he would have to help Gwendolyn shower, constantly hold her in his arms, and accompany her to the laboratory and back.

The experience last night had visibly drained his energy, leaving him exhausted.

However, it seemed to be the best course of action for now.

They realized that depleting Gwendolyn's energy by physically exerting themselves together would be the fastest way to make her feel exhausted and fall asleep.

Cedrick gently ran his fingers through her hair, his touch filled with affection. "All right, I'll go along with your plan. It'll be an interesting experience to spend the night in the basement with you."

Gwendolyn smiled. "In that case, let's begin by taking off our sleepwear and performing the routine check for any signs of injury."

"I'm not injured. There's no need to check."

Gwendolyn was not convinced and playfully straddled him. "If there's nothing to hide, why are you hesitant to show me?"

"Because I'm afraid that you won't be able to resist and want to devour me." Cedrick's lips curved mischievously, and his low, seductive voice carried a hint of desire.

Gwendolyn felt a slight weakness in her knees as she succumbed to the allure of his seductive voice.

"I didn't plan to devour you, but you have piqued my interest. I think I'll have a satisfying feast," she whispered.

With that, she took the initiative to unbutton Cedrick's sleepwear, revealing his exquisitely sculpted abdominal muscles.

She narrowed her eyes and sensually glided her tongue over her teeth, exuding a dangerous allure akin to that of a seductive feline.

Meanwhile, Cedrick willingly lay there like a vulnerable prey, his long lashes concealing the flicker of excitement in his eyes. He waited in anticipation for her to devour him.

At this moment, he firmly believed that all the suffering he endured to combat Gwendolyn's mania was worth it.

She leaned in and planted a tender kiss on Cedrick's lips.

Ring! Ring! Ring!

Their enchanting moment was abruptly interrupted by Gwendolyn's phone ringing on the bedside table.

Both of them were startled, their gazes locking in surprise.

Gwendolyn hesitated, unsure whether to answer the call. However, the incessant ringing conveyed a sense of urgency that couldn't be ignored.

In situations like these, it usually meant that it was business matters.

Hence,

It was he
