Wooing My Ex-Wife

Chapter 409

Nico came to a sudden halt, and his eyes lifted to meet Cedrick’s piercing gaze from the other side. His face paled slightly, startled by the intimidating look.

“I swear, my sister-in-law-to-be, I wouldn’t dare tamper with the results when so many eyes are upon me!”,

Compelled by a wave of trepidation, he swung the branch once more, this time with even greater force.

Evelyn convulsed in agony, her body trembling at the brink of collapse.

Her doe-like eyes brimmed with tears as she cast a helpless gaze toward Kieran and Treyton, who were seated on the nearby couch.

“Help me, Kieran, Treyton.”

However, Kieran remained cold and impassive, his face devoid of any trace of emotion. He was unperturbed by her desperate plea for help.

Treyton couldn’t bear to see her covered in blood as the brutal strikes echoed in his ears. Hence, he turned away, choosing to ignore the scene.

As Evelyn witnessed the apathy of her two brothers, a chill settled in her heart. A sardonic smile crept onto her pale lips, a bitter reflection of the irony that enveloped the situation.

She would groan in pain occasionally, but she never begged for mercy.

“Great.” Gwendolyn’s voice remained icy, devoid of any inflection.
