The Ex and Her Riches
Chapter 168
Charles lay on the couch with a half-smile, gazing at Maverick with his deep blue eyes.
With his lazy posture, he oozed an aura of mischief.
Charles had looked into the people around Maverick and found that they were no ordinary people. As for Maverick’s background, it was too clean that he could not help but feel suspicious.
“I’m just Maverick, that’s all. Nothing more.”
Maverick’s dark eyes became serious as he took a step forward, his long legs carrying him to the couch next to Charles. Then, Maverick sat down, his posture straight and proper.
With a casual glance, he first noticed Charles’ exposed, perfectly sculpted chest muscles and collarbones beneath the black shirt. Paired with those deep, blue eyes, Charles looked absolutely enchanting like a fairy.
Even I, as a man, found him attractive. Gwendolyn probably finds him pleasing to the eye as well, right?
Maverick suddenly thought of Charles mentioning his long-time bond with Gwendolyn, as well as the complex look in Gwendolyn’s eyes when she saw Charles at the police station.
Gwendolyn… She did like him, didn’t she?
When Charles noticed Maverick staring at his body, a wicked smile played on his lips. “I’m the kind of person who insists on having what’s mine. If anyone dares to lay a finger on it, I’ll chop them down and take back what belongs to me. Do you understand what I mean?”
Hearing that, Maverick laughed.
Does Charles think he can chop me down?
He poured himself another glass of wine and elegantly drank it.
With a tone of provocation, he began, “You can give it a try, and I’ll play along. But…”
Maverick paused for a moment, his expression serious and cautious. He then added, “Gwendolyn is not anyone’s personal possession. I learned this a long time ago. She has always been independent and full of ideas, and her decisions cannot be influenced by others.”
“Of course, but I can guide her in making choices, just like last night.”
When the incident from the night before was mentioned, Maverick’s dark eyes narrowed. As he exuded a fierce aura, the surrounding atmosphere chilled.
Charles sat up and looked him in the eye. “I taught her how to shoot. She’s very smart and learns quickly. Last night, I was right behind her and saw her every move clearly.”
Maverick realized what Charles wanted to say and suddenly furrowed his brows.
