Wooing My Ex-Wife

Chapter 190 Let Him Go Prev ChapterNext Chapter The confrontation lasted for several minutes.

Caught in the middle, Gwendolyn glanced from one man to the other.

As the 023 special drug had lost its effect on Maverick, he now looked more imposing than Charles.

His eyes gleamed with a chilling and merciless intensity.

Gwendolyn did not know what to say.

They were already eyeing each other with so much hostility in the beginning that she was not sure how the night would end.

She cleared her throat loudly, drawing their attention to her.

Gwendolyn then gestured for Charles to look in the direction of the dining room.

“Charles, I’ve prepared all this food, and I’ve been waiting for you.

I’ve also prepared two bottles of red wine.

It’s been a long time since we’ve had a drink together.

Let’s all drink and be merry tonight.

” “Okay.

” Charles shifted his focus from Maverick to Gwendolyn.

He looked at her affectionately as they walked into the dining room together.

“Gwen, your culinary skills are amazing.

These dishes smell so good.

I wasn’t that hungry earlier, but now my appetite has been whetted.

” “I’m happy as long as you like them.

” Maverick stood in the stairwell, observing their interaction keenly.

Even though Gwendolyn had already told him about her plan that night, he was still caught off-guard when he saw her smiling happily at Charles and speaking to him in such a gentle manner.

He felt a pang of heartache.

When would Gwendolyn treat him the way she was treating Charles? Both of them were chatting and laughing in the dining room, oblivious to the awkward expression on Maverick’s face.

At the dining table, Gwendolyn pursed her lips and smiled.

She took the bottle of red wine that had been decanted and was about to pour some for Charles.

Charles extended his hand, making a gesture to stop her.

“Gwen, you have a servant here.

You don’t have to do this yourself.

” Gwendolyn’s expression momentarily froze, but she quickly regained her composure.

She put down the red wine and looked in the direction of the staircase.

“Maverick, come here.

” Charles’ lips curled up slightly with a satisfied look.

He was sitting in an upright position as if he had cultivated this habit over the years.
