The Ex and Her Riches

Hector and his family all panicked.

“I am your younger brother, Marcus. I have obeyed the rules for decades, and this is the only time I have made a mistake. You can’t be so ruthless and evict my whole family!”

Hector and his family knelt before Marcus and begged for mercy tearfully.

Torn between his brother and his daughter, Marcus’ expression turned grim as he looked at Gwendolyn.

“How shall I punish them, Honey?”

“Do whatever needs to be done according to the rules,” Gwendolyn replied without hesitation.

Nina stood up abruptly and glared at Gwendolyn furiously. “Gwendolyn! How can you be so ruthless? Aren’t you standing unscathed here? Why are you so cold-blooded toward your family?” she yelled.

Gwendolyn’s expression became cold instantly.

The reason she was unscathed now was that there was a man who suffered on her behalf.

They deserve to die for hurting him!

When Gwendolyn looked at Nina, her gaze turned icy. “If I were the one caught harming a family member, would you have let me off?”

Nina and Luke paused. After a brief glance at each other, they replied simultaneously, “Of course!”

“You are the youngest daughter of the Harris family. How can we possibly bear to hurt you?” Nina added.

“If that’s the case, you wouldn’t have made such a big fuss about the injuries on Uncle Hector’s face today. Don’t you feel disgusted by yourself when said that?”

Gwendolyn had no interest in staying any longer. Glancing at Marcus cautiously, she said coldly, “I’ll let Dad handle this. I have no objections to what he decides in the end.”

Gwendolyn left the ancestral hall of the Harris residence while pleas of mercy continued to echo behind her.

She returned to the room that she just tidied, but she couldn’t calm herself down even after a long time.

She could still recall the vivid image of Maverick’s burnt back drenched in blood.

Gwendolyn hated that the culprits were her family members. Since she couldn’t kill them, she would make sure that they suffer as a form of penance!

Following a long sigh, she thought of what happened earlier today at the Jenson residence. At the thought of herself lying to Cedrick and shifting much of the blame onto Maverick, she quickly clasped her hands and repented sincerely.
