The Ex and Her Riches

How thoughtful of you? It seems like you’ve prepared yourself to get beaten up. Cedrick, do you think that I don’t dare to hurt you now that you have a high status?”

Cedrick lifted his head up to fix his eyes on her. His eyes were red as he voiced, “I don’t care about the status. I’m merely an ordinary guy in front of you. If I’ve made you angry, I don’t mind getting beaten up by you.”

His words sounded genuine compared to what he said yesterday.

“If that’s how you want it, so be it.”

As she raised her horsewhip, her gaze looked hostile.

At that moment, she was overcome with the urge to beat Cedrick up badly. I can’t wait to see Cedrick covered in blood. I’ll beat him up until he’s unable to get up and beg me for mercy!

Nevertheless, she held herself back, taking only half of her strength to whip two times on his left arm.

“Does it hurt?” Her gaze remained indifferent.

Cedrick furrowed his brows slightly, attempting to control his arm from trembling too hard.

Taking a breath silently, he lied with a beam, “Not at all.”

Gwendolyn didn’t use all her strength and assumed his worst condition was getting a swollen wound on his arm. However, those two whips were powerful enough to hurt Cedrick. The spikes on the whip snagged his shirt and torn his flesh open, leaving two bloody cuts on his arm. It was a ghastly sight to see Cedrick’s white shirt drenched in blood.

Noticing something was not right, Gwendolyn looked down at the whip in her hand.

The horsewhip was a rough job, and there were sharp prickles on it. Watching the horsewhip covered in blood, Gwendolyn came to a realization and felt the pain for him.

Just when she felt that way, a wave of fury crashed through her abruptly, causing her to lose her rationality.

He’s acting well by pretending to be hurt!
