The Ex and Her Riches
Chapter 191
Gwendolyn’s expression gradually hardened as she stared at him in disbelief.
With her tone a little melancholic, she said, “You don’t trust me?”
Charles chuckled. “Silly girl, I was just joking with you. Of course, I trust you. But was this wine prepared by you or Maverick? I don’t trust him.”
Gwendolyn showed him her empty red wine glass in her hand.
“I’ve already had a glass. So if the wine was tampered with, I should be the first to go down.”
Charles remained silent, gently swirling the red wine in his glass without taking a sip.
Gwendolyn was getting a bit upset. She pouted and glanced at the full bottle of red wine next to her. “Do you want me to do the same as you did last time? Should I finish the whole bottle of wine for you to believe me?”
Charles remained silent.
In a fit of defiance, Gwendolyn reached out to grab the entire bottle of red wine on the table.
Charles stopped her. “I believe you. Even if this bottle contains poison, I would still drink it because you are like a beautiful poison to me and have intoxicated me for a long time.”
He smiled dotingly. Finally, tilting his head back, he drank the glass of wine.
In the garden, Charles’ two confidants stood by the entrance, resembling a pair of statues.
Elven took the initiative to approach the two of them.
“Hey, it’s getting late. Have you two had dinner yet? We’ve secretly grilled some barbecue in the backyard. Do you want to come over and give it a try?”
Both confidants had cold expressions as they firmly rejected the invitation.
“No need.”
Elven was very patient. “Don’t be afraid. Ms. Shalders has always been very friendly. With her around, Mr. Newton won’t get angry. Besides, it’s already dinner time. Given the relationship between Mr. Newton and Ms. Shalders, we’ll all eventually become like family, so consider this an early opportunity to get acquainted.”
This time, both hesitated briefly before saying, “No need.”
They were stubborn. Elven was starting to wonder how he should continue to persuade them without being too eager, as it would raise their suspicions.
