The Ex and Her Riches
Chapter 204
Gwendolyn’s rationality was being overturned repeatedly. Her hands trembled uncontrollably when she lowered her head to look at the vase.
Gwendolyn handed it back to Nico. However, she bit her lower lips and shook her head, sneering coldly, “I don’t believe this. I dare you to make him tell me personally!”
“Ms. Shalders…”
“Get lost!” Gwendolyn yelled. She took a step back and slammed the door shut, shutting everyone out.
Taking a deep breath, Gwendolyn tried to calm down and regain her rationality.
As Gwendolyn sat on the couch, she saw the stack of sticky notes she had earlier taken down.
Gwendolyn picked them up again and carefully read through them.
She recalled the moment he pulled her into his tight embrace before they got into the car. Gwendolyn did not notice at that time, but she now realized that the corners of his eyes seemed a bit red.
Has Maverick known all along that this day would come, and was he prepared for the last time we would meet before I left for Fairlake? But… I didn’t see his corpse. I don’t believe it! There’s no way!
Justin was not at the villa previously because he accompanied Nico and the others to the crematorium. Now, he had finally arrived.
Justin’s face was full of grief when Gwendolyn called him inside.
Gwendolyn sat on the couch in a stupor. She was cold, devoid of emotions and tears.
Gwendolyn stood up suddenly and gave Justin a tight slap when he drew near.
“Uh…”
Justin staggered a step back, caught off guard. Blood seeped out from the corner of his cut lips.
Justin did not dare to wipe away the blood. Perceived the metallic taste in his mouth, he stood obediently to bear Gwendolyn’s anger.
“Ms. Shalders, go ahead and beat me to death if it makes you feel better. I’m drowning in guilt from causing Mr. Wright’s death. I’d feel better dying in your hands.”
Gwendolyn glanced at him. She withdrew her hand slowly and sat back on the couch after seeing he was truly upset.
