Wooing My Ex-Wife

“You…” Did they just sell me out? Dexter was quite frustrated. However, this matter indeed had nothing to do with Cecelia and Carol, so he could understand their refusal to take the drugs with him. Regardless, if he had to choose three bottles a day, what if he had bad luck and all three turned out to be the sleeping drugs? Would he survive that? In case he ended up choosing both the sleeping drug and the laxative, wouldn’t he be tormented to death from both ends? No way! I have to drag someone down with me, even if I die! He clenched his teeth in anger, glaring at Maverick.

“You little brat! You’re helping an outsider set up your own uncle! Have you forgotten that your mother is involved in this too? If I’m found guilty, she should be punished as well! If I’m going to be tormented by all this, she shouldn’t be faring any better!” Maverick’s expression remained indifferent.

“She made a mistake, so of course she should be punished.

I won’t show favoritism.

Besides, I’ve already taken the punishment Gwendolyn gave to her on her behalf.” That drug had almost sent him to hell. He would never forget the heart-wrenching pain in his lifetime. In other words, he was expressing how he would uphold justice even at the expense of his own family, and he had even been punished on behalf of his mother.

That way, Dexter had nothing else he could say. Dexter was unwilling to accept the situation, but when he looked at the four bodyguards Gwendolyn had brought with her, he realized that none of them would be easy to deal with.

Even if he counted heads, his side was still outnumbered. Since there was no other way, Dexter said with a sigh, “My ex-niece-in-law—Wait, no.

Ms.Shalders, could you please give me a discount? Please take into account my old age.

I can’t withstand this kind of torment.” Gwendolyn smiled joyfully.

“Mr. Wright, since you’ve asked for it, of course, it’s possible.” Before Dexter could even feel happy, he heard her continue, “But you’ll have to exchange it for the Wright Construction Group shares you hold.

One percent of Wright Construction Group shares can save you from two bottles.” In other words, he wouldn’t need to drink a single bottle if he gave up all his shares. Cecelia and Carol both thought this was a good idea. “Hubby, now that the stock market for Wright Construction Group has plummeted and the shares are hardly worth anything, why not use them to waive off the drugs? That way, you don’t have to suffer.” “That’s a woman’s perspective!” Dexter rejected her idea right away. It was obvious that Gwendolyn had come today with her sights set on his shares! That was the source of income for his entire family, and it was also the last thing Declan had left for him.

There was no way he could easily hand it over to an outsider. “Have you decided yet?” Gwendolyn asked, pursing her lips. “Absolutely not! There’s no way I’m giving up any shares, not in this lifetime or the next!” He glanced at the opened black-and-gold box on the table, took a deep breath, and bravely chose three bottles.

Opening them, he swallowed their contents without even paying attention to the taste.

After finishing, he immediately squatted on the ground, retching. Cecelia and Carol hurried over to hold him.

His face paled from the fright as he exclaimed, “Quick! Go call a doctor! Otherwise, it’ll be too late when the drugs start to take effect!” Seeing that he still acted so cowardly despite his old age, the bodyguards burst into uproarious laughter. Previously, when it was Maverick’s turn, he drank it without even blinking an eye despite being aware that it was a sleeping drug. Both of them had the last name Wright, but there was a significant difference when it came to their pride. Gwendolyn said, “From now on, William and Quinton will watch you drink three bottles every day.

Only when you finish them all will it count.” After she finished speaking, she left the Wright mansion without looking back. Maverick immediately followed her. After dealing with Dexter, it was almost time to go to work. This time, Gwendolyn didn’t plan on letting Maverick go straight home.
