Chapter 116 Your Apology Came Too Late
Gwendolyn was initially furious, but his witty response almost made her laugh in spite of herself.
His proud yet submissive expression, as if to convey, “I may have kneeled, but my resolve remains unyielding.” made her snort. She scolded, “What are you waiting for? Apply the medicine now!”

Gwendolyn looked coldly at the man kneeling obediently at her feet and asked with curiosity, “Since you know that you can’t possibly kill me, why did you still engage in such a foolish act?”
Maverick kept his head down, tightly pursing his lips without speaking.

Gwendolyn lowered her gaze to meet his, her sharp eyes keenly noting the traces of redness around his eyes. Well, he certainly looks sincere.
She wondered if Maverick was indeed feeling guilty because of her injured hand or if it was just part of his
act.
Her eyes darted around and met his swollen right cheek.
“Great, now the slaps on both sides of your face have created a perfect symmetry.” She paused for a moment before continuing with a determined tone, “Do you remember not long ago when you cornered me in the ladies’ room? I warned you then that one day you would find yourself kneeling before me and facing the consequences. Little did I know that day would arrive so soon.”
