The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 389

Joaquin was still drunk, and his mind felt slow and heavy under the influence of alcohol.

He boldly wagged a finger at Gwendolyn and proclaimed in a slurred voice, “What is the meaning of this? Who are you? I don’t know you!”

His words angered Gwendolyn.

This boy needs to be put in his place!

She looked around the room, but there was no suitable item to punish him with. Then, she glanced at the belt around Cedrick’s waist.

Cedrick followed her gaze and immediately knew what she was thinking.

“No!” He frowned and shook his head firmly.

Gwendolyn thought about it again, but she did not change her mind. She turned her eyes to Nico who was standing by the door and said to him, “Your belt, give it to me.”

“Huh?” Nico was confused by her strange sudden request.

He looked at Cedrick but found no answer there either.

He had no choice but to unfasten his belt and hand it over to Gwendolyn.

Right before he gave the belt to her, a realization hit him. “Are you intending to punish this boy? That’s hard labor! You’ll be tired from the whipping! Let me do it! I’m good at it!”

Gwendolyn agreed. “Hit him hard. Make sure he feels pain, but don’t injure him too badly.”

“Roger!”

Nico rolled up his sleeves and turned to face Joaquin, and started laughing to himself. He approached Joaquin with a poker face and cracked his belt in an enthusiastic greeting.

Snap!

The snap of the belt meeting Joaquin’s exposed skin kept ringing through the air.
