The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 153

Treyton sank into deep thought.

After pondering for a while, he shook his head.

“No. You should know that Dad is not young anymore. He was already well advanced in age when you were born. Lorelai has been trying all ways and means to get pregnant, but we never heard that she succeeded.”

Lorelai Sablich was Gwendolyn’s stepmother, who was only three years older than her. Lorelei and Gwendolyn could never get along. Whenever they crossed paths, it seemed inevitable that they would argue.

Gwendolyn thought hard for a moment.

She always had a strong feeling that the image of the little girl in her mind was somehow connected to how she ended up in Fairlake after losing her memory.

However, she could not remember anything about it.

Gwendolyn decided that she had to spend some time investigating that matter.

For the time being, she had to put it aside.

“Treyton, what did you do to that group of people last night?”

Treyton did not say anything.

By the time he got to the bridge that night, the situation had already concluded. Maverick had arrived with his men first.

Treyton then cleaned up the mess at the scene. He kept a few men alive and brought them back for interrogation.

After mulling over it, Treyton chose not to inform Gwendolyn that Maverick was present at the scene. “They hurt my sister, so I have to kill them to seek justice for you. I spared two of the men and locked them up. Once you’ve recovered, you can interrogate them and try to gather any relevant information.”

“All right.”

Gwendolyn placed the chicken soup on the table by the bed. She remembered vaguely that someone had saved her last night.

“Did you jump into the water to save me last night?”

The thought of that got Treyton all riled up.

By the time he arrived at the scene, Maverick had already jumped into the water.

When he carried Gwendolyn out of the water, Treyton noticed that the slits on both sides of her gown were torn. Treyton wondered if Maverick had done something inappropriate to her.
