The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 410

Evelyn felt an involuntary tremor of fear course through her body as she stared into Gwendolyn’s intense gaze.

When Gwendolyn saw her fear, she let out a mocking scoff.

“You shall be sent to the secluded countryside estate tomorrow morning. I’ll arrange for bodyguards to keep a watch on you. The old housekeepers of the Harris family still reside there, and they will monitor your every move as you toil away in the fields,” Gwendolyn announced.

After a short pause, she continued, “Before dusk falls each day, you will endure ten whippings and then kneel in the courtyard. You shall also recite the entire Heagurn Sutra scriptures as a form of punishment for your sins. You can only rest when you have completed the recitation. This will be your daily routine. How does it sound? Quite magnanimous, don’t you think?”

Evelyn’s spine stiffened and her already weakened complexion grew even paler.

The Heagurn Sutra, with its six hundred volumes and over five million words, seemed like an insurmountable task to read from cover to cover. The mere thought of attempting to read it in a single night felt overwhelming.

It was undeniably a cruel punishment.

“You’re so vicious, Gwendolyn,” Evelyn hissed with a bitter expression.

Gwendolyn stared at her and said coldly, “Did you show any mercy when you exploited my sympathy? You injected me with drugs and attempted to drown me. You even hired multiple assassins to end my life. Weren’t you ruthless too? What about your plans to unleash a biochemical virus against me? Or your manipulation of Eloise to repeatedly harm me? You even instigated Lorelai to push Dad down the stairs! You fabricated my lineage and forced Asher to stand by your side so that you could seize the Harris family’s inheritance. Aren’t you ruthless?”

As their eyes remained locked, Evelyn let out a resigned chuckle. “I’m glad I managed to introduce countless obstacles in your life.”

When the thought of Asher crossed her mind, she couldn’t help but add, “There are many things that Asher is unaware of. I’ll take responsibility for my actions; there’s no need to implicate others.”

Gwendolyn’s expression remained impassive, her eyes still filled with a deep, chilling resolve. “You deserve your punishment, and as for him, I will never forgive him.”

With those final words, she returned to the sofa and took her seat beside Cedrick.
