The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 180

Xavier Xenakis hesitated for a moment and did not move.

After Gwendolyn revealed her identity, Xavier immediately searched for Maverick’s medical records on the computer.

“Besides having a rather weak constitution, basically there are no other issues with this patient.”

He printed out the lab report and handed it to her.

Gwendolyn received it and carefully read through it before she asked, “How is the wound on his back?”

“It’s just a burn caused by concentrated sulfuric acid. The wound will be healed if the medicine is applied constantly and be careful not to get it wet. But he may have an ugly scar on his back after it heals.”

Gwendolyn went through the lab report once again, and it showed that there were indeed no major issues with Maverick’s health.

She wondered if she could trust the report.

She still could not understand why Maverick was acting so unusual today.

She kept feeling that something was off. It was a strange feeling she couldn’t quite put her finger on.

“Is that really so? Dr. Xenakis, don’t keep anything from me,” she said while staring intently at Xavier.

Xavier’s expression was calm. He did not seem to be lying. “Yes, Ms. Shalders. These are all Mr. Wright’s test results.”

Am I overthinking?

Gwendolyn gathered her thoughts and said in a solemn manner, “If Mr. Wright asks if I came over, just keep it a secret.”

Xavier understood and nodded in agreement.

A complete lab report appeared on Xavier’s computer screen as soon as she left.

There were several abnormal physical indicators shown on the screen. Looking at the report, he let out a sigh.

Seriously… He sacrifices too much for her!

After leaving Xavier’s office, Gwendolyn returned to Bay Villa.
