“Kiddo, that’s a high–security prison. Charles is a felon. It’ll be hard to bring him out unless I bail him out.”

Gwendolyn knew that as well.

But does Charles deserve to be bailed out?

She began to shower Asher with compliments. “Asher, you’re the most capable man. I know you must have a solution to this matter. Don’t worry. I just want to teach him some lessons to make his life worse than death. After that, I’ll let you take him back inside.”

Asher fell silent.

He neither agreed to it nor rejected her.

Laying on his lap, Gwendolyn began to play the victim with tears in her eyes. “Asher, you hit me so hard earlier. Now that someone is bullying me, I can’t believe you actually don’t plan to help me. My life is such a misery. You don’t love me anymore, do you?”

Noticing that she was covered in cold sweat from the pain, Asher hurriedly took a piece of wet tissue to wipe the sweat off.

Earlier, he had been so angry that he did not control his strength and hit her really hard. Now that he had calmed down, he was filled with distress and guilt.

He would even bring her the stars if she wanted them.

“How could I not love you? I agree to help you.”

As her goal was achieved, Gwendolyn breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that her exaggerated acting was not

in vain.

“Thank you, Asher. How long do you think it’ll take you to get him out?”

Asher was about to say that he would have to come up with a plan first when Gwendolyn spoke before he could.

With a smile, she prompted, “Let’s do it today, shall we?”

“Why the rush?”

Instead of answering him, Gwendolyn held her waist carefully and said with a pitiful expression, “Ouch. My butt hurts so much. Show me some love, Asher.”

Asher felt his heart ache. “Okay, I’ll pause all my work today and prioritize helping you with this matter first. I’ll have everything done before the day is over.”

“Oh, you’re the best, Asher!”
