Wooing My Ex-Wife

Chapter 161

At that moment, all eyes were on Maverick.

Maverick didn’t panic at all as he joked with a playful smirk, “It’s nothing.

I just think Mr. Scott is a very impressive bootlicker.

” He was subtly mocking Matthew for buttering him up and also expressed disdain for Charles.

Maverick and Charles stared at each other and sensed the obvious hostility in each other’s eyes.

Sparks flew, and the air was thick with tension as the two of them traded blows.

The atmosphere in the room was extremely tense, so much so that no one dared to make a sound.

Gwendolyn tapped on the table amidst the strained atmosphere and reminded, “Let’s get down to business.

My time is precious.

” Both of the men instantly reined in their temper and returned their attention to the main issue at hand.

Charles took another look at the documents before looking at Shirley and Samantha.

“Mrs. Lane, you should provide solid evidence since you’re accusing Gwendolyn of being the mastermind.

Otherwise, I’ll have to let her go.

” Shirley bit her lip.

All the evidence had been destroyed by Gwendolyn’s bodyguards before they left yesterday.

Apart from the injuries on Samantha and the testimonies of the housekeepers and bodyguards at home, Shirley had nothing to present.

I thought we could quietly pin the crime on Gwendolyn with the help of someone at Fairlake Police Station.

Who would have thought that Charles would appear out of nowhere, leaving me with no other options? Shirley couldn’t accept the outcome, and all she could do was glare at Gwendolyn angrily.

“Just because you have powerful backers doesn’t mean that you can do whatever you want.

If you overstep your bounds, sooner or later, you’ll stumble!” Gwendolyn appeared relaxed and carefree as she twirled her hair around her fingertips out of boredom.

She raised her eyebrows when she heard Shirley’s words.

“You’re absolutely right, Mrs. Lane.

However, I don’t know when I’ll stumble.

The good days for the Lane family are coming to an end soon.
