The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 588 A New Secret 

Since Gwendolyn had gotten a head start, Asher and Sienna hurriedly left Mount Tranquil for Summerbank Island.

Thankfully, they arrived at the coast just before Gwendolyn departed for the small island.

“Gwen.”

The sound of Sienna’s voice prompted Gwendolyn to turn around.

When she spotted her eldest brother and his wife, she asked, “Why are you both here, Sienna?”

“Asher was worried about you, so we decided to come and check on you,” explained Sienna.

Gwendolyn turned her attention to Asher, who was staring at her.

The siblings held each other’s gazes for a while before Gwendolyn broke off eye contact.

She offered, “Since you’re here, let’s go to the island together.”

Nico had gathered his men and was on standby on the coastline as planned. They would only charge into the island in an emergency.

Gwendolyn led Sienna and Asher onto a small speedboat and set off for Summerbank Island.

Paul and Annie were already waiting in front of a lavish mansion, looking as though they were holidaying at a resort.

Around eight bodyguards stood behind them, forming an imposing entourage.

Sienna and Asher’s arrival brought a bright smile to Annie’s face. She exclaimed, “Ah, I didn’t know my brother and sister–in–law would join us. You must adore Gwendolyn. You’re worried that something will happen to her even though I’m the one being seized.”

Her enthusiasm was not well–received. Sienna replied coldly, “Who are you calling your sister–in–law? The only in–law I have here is Gwen.”

The second she ended her retort, Asher pinched her wrist, warning her to bite her tongue and avoid agitating Annie.

They were only a few meters away from Annic, close enough to see her beautiful face scrunch up with displeasure.
