Wooing My Ex-Wife

Chapter 189 Cook A Meal For You Upon seeing Charles enter with his men, Shirley immediately slumped into the chair.

She had heard from acquaintances at the police station that Charles was planning to leave Fairlake, so why hadn’t he left yet? With him around, that day was going to be tough for her.

The Lane family’s bodyguards quickly lost their confidence when faced with the police officers brandishing stun batons.

Samantha sat on the ground, feeling utterly defeated.

However, as Charles entered, his gaze remained fixed on Gwendolyn.

Maintaining an upright and composed posture, he walked over to sit beside Gwendolyn.

The latter unconsciously furrowed her brows but quickly concealed any underlying emotions.

She then redirected her attention to Shirley and Samantha across from her.

“Samantha, I don’t feel like wasting any more time on this.

The police station will handle the crimes you and the Lane family committed.

You will repay every penny of the money you owe me with interest.

If the funds are insufficient, you’ll have to sell properties or mortgage Lane Group.

” Shirley and Samantha felt resigned, but under Charles’ pressure, they remained silent and played dumb.

Gwendolyn gently smoothed her skirt and looked at Charles beside her, her eyes filled with tenderness.

“Charles, I’m feeling slightly tired, so I’ll leave the rest to you.

By the way, Samantha has a penchant for tearing paper.

How about letting her tear all the papers in the hallway into shreds before taking them back to the police station? What do you think?” Charles raised his gaze, his deep and gentle blue eyes meeting hers.

“All right, I’ll do as you say, but…” He paused for a moment and gently took hold of Gwendolyn’s hand before continuing, “I’ve done you such a big favor, yet you stood me up last night.

It’s time to make up to me, don’t you think?” Gwendolyn smiled, her eyes filled with warmth and her voice velvety.

“Of course, to make it up to you, why don’t you come to Bay Villa tonight after you finish work? I’ll personally cook you a meal.

How does that sound?” Charles was pleasantly surprised.

On second thought, he remembered that annoying person in her villa.

“But there’s someone in your villa who I’d rather not see.

” “That’s not a big deal.

” Gwendolyn shrugged indifferently.
