Wooing My Ex-Wife

Chapter 198

Chapter 198 The Last Loving Moment “Don’t touch.

It’s dirty.

” Gwendolyn locked her eyes with Maverick, and her mind was clear.

“The blood is still fresh, which means that something just happened here.

Didn’t you see anything when you and Nico rushed over?” Maverick remained silent and glanced at Nico.

Nico caught the hint and explained, “I was the first one to arrive here.

When I came in, I happened to catch someone trying to escape through the window, so I injured him with a small knife.

This should be the blood left by that person.

” “And where is that person? How could that person escape from someone with your skills?” Gwendolyn questioned.

Nico was at a loss for words momentarily.

He pretended to scratch his head in embarrassment.

“I’m sorry.

It was my bad.

He had companions, so I didn’t go after him.

” Fine.

Since the person wasn’t caught, there was not much for Gwendolyn to ask further.

She glanced at Maverick again.

Other than his pale face and lips, he seemed fine.

Could he really have caught a cold? “Let’s go back to the villa.

” Gwendolyn turned and walked toward the door.

Maverick followed behind her.

The wounds on his lower back would get torn with every step he took, causing him excruciating pain.

It was so painful that he felt weak and weightless.

Nico quickly stepped forward and supported him by holding his arm.

Gwendolyn halted her steps and turned around when she heard the commotion.

“What’s wrong?” Maverick breathed in and forced a smile.

“Nothing.

He slipped.

” Nico was speechless.

How did I become the scapegoat for everything? He gave Gwendolyn a wry smile.

“Yes, I missed a step.

But luckily, I reacted quickly and managed to grab Mr. Wright’s arm in time to avoid falling!” It was a small incident that Gwendolyn didn’t pay much attention to.
