Chapter 30 A Poor Choice
Maverick summoned the butler and said, “Starting today, Mrs. Wright and Ms. Wright are not allowed to leave this house without my permission. If anyone dares to disobey my instructions, he or she will be punished with the strictest penalties enforced in the Wright residence.”
“Huh?”
Aren’t we supposed to teach Gwendolyn that w“nch a lesson?
Frida was infuriated. She pointed angrily at Maverick and went off on a tangent about how ungrateful and heartless he was to his flesh and blood.
Maverick did not say anything and left the room in a dour mood.
Then, he called for Noah and instructed, “Have someone replace the broken items in the household immediately. Put someone else in charge of monitoring every call that goes through to the Wright residence and report the details to me ASAP.”
“Yes,” Noah shot his employer a hesitant glance and asked, “But Boss, isn’t that too harsh on Mrs. Wright and Ms. Wright? After all, Ms. Shalders was too insensitive in handling the situation.”
His heart softened as he remembered how pitiful Frida and Sheralyn looked when he first walked in. Why is Boss so protective of Gwendolyn? He’s even allowing her to turn the Wright residence upside down.
To his surprise, Noah’s question did not enrage Maverick, who merely asked, “If someone tried to ruin your life several times and made your life a living hell, would you forgive that person?”
“Of course not!” answered Noah resolutely. “I’d find a way to give him a taste of his own medicine.”
Realization suddenly dawned upon him, and he froze in shock.
Having sent across his point, Maverick turned and left without a backward glance.
After emerging victorious amid the fiasco at the Wright residence, Gwendolyn returned home in high spirits.
To her delight, Asher and Kieran’s presents had arrived as well.
She impatiently tore open Asher’s present, only to find a small, custom–made model airplane from the National Aviation Agency.
D*mn it! Has Asher conveniently forgotten that I’m no longer a fifteen–year–old kid? I can’t believe I was so excited about his present.
