The Ex and Her Riches

With that, the conflict between Evelyn and Gwendolyn finally came to an end.

At last, after many days of dealing with the matter and sleepless nights, the latter could slumber at ease.

As it was Inez’s first time in Salinsburgh, Gwendolyn invited Inez and Kieran to Harrick Villa for a meal.

Ever since Jennifer became the team manager, she had been swamped every day, and it had been a long while since she last had a proper rest. Seeing that Jennifer had finally found a job she was interested in and was leading a fulfilling life, Gwendolyn invited her and Treyton to a meal as well.

Inez was peeling prawns for herself when she was cued all of a sudden. She lowered her head in slight discomfiture. “It’s not my decision to make. It depends on the deliberation between my parents and Mr. Kieran’s decision. I’ve already been deprived of the right to speak; it’s pointless even if I oppose.”
