The Ex and Her Riches
Chapter 195
Maverick gazed up at her, a flattering smile playing at his thin lips.
Gwendolyn cast a deep, meaningful glance at the man.
Indeed, he was due to be taught a lesson that night, and Gwendolyn’s anger simply would not subside until the man was crying and pleading for mercy.
She extended her hand toward him. “Belt.”
Without hesitation, Maverick swiftly unfasted the metal buckle and obediently handed the belt to her. Then, he turned around and faced away from the woman.
Gwendolyn felt a shiver course through her entire being. She folded the belt in half, her eyes glinting with resolution and intensity. Lifting the belt high into the air, she readied herself to strike the wounded back before her.
However, before she could swing the belt in her hand, her gaze involuntarily landed on the palm-sized burn on the man’s back.
The vividly crimson flesh and the gruesome wound provoked unease. It was so strikingly conspicuous that it was hard to ignore.
Besides, he’d sustained the injury by shielding her. Otherwise, it would be her face that was bearing such agony.
As Gwendolyn pondered on this, she experienced a surge of conflicting emotions. It felt as though an unseen force held her wrist, preventing her from lowering it no matter what.
She released a silent sigh and seemed to have deflated all of a sudden, for she realized, much to her vexation, that she actually started to feel sorry for him.
This feeling made Gwendolyn very unhappy.
The three years she had spent in the Wright residence were akin to enduring a living hell, devoid of any semblance of warmth. Following the divorce, she had observed some changes in Maverick and his growing sincerity. It would be disingenuous if she said she remained unmoved.
Nevertheless, Gwendolyn refused to tread upon that familiar path again.
No matter how much she attempted to sever the ties between him and herself, in the end, she would be the one to wind up hurt.
At that thought, she tightened her grip on the belt, trembling as though she had made a momentous decision.
