Chapter 26 Take Care of Your Man

The more Natasha spoke, the less confident she became. While she was still glaring at Gwendolyn with fierce hatred, she didn’t have the courage to open the door and confirm her guess.

“Why don’t you come in and find out yourself?” Gwendolyn shrugged, unperturbed, and opened the door.

Then she pointed at the spot Maverick was previously standing at. “He’s right there!”

Natasha felt her heart clenching, but when she looked in the direction Gwendolyn was pointing it, she saw only an empty wall.

“Are you toying with me?” Furiously, she glowered at Gwendolyn.

Gwendolyn was stunned, too. He was just standing there! Does he have superpowers or something?

Upon observing Gwendolyn’s expression, Natasha realized something was fishy. Hence, she exasperatedly pushed Gwendolyn aside and searched through every stall in the restroom.

Gwendolyn stood behind her, wondering where Maverick was hiding.

After the two women went through almost all of the stalls, their lines of sight landed on the last one, its door left ajar.

Natasha took in a deep breath and pushed the door open.

Like the other stalls, there was nothing inside.

The realization of what had unfolded dawned on Gwendolyn when she noticed an opened window to the right of the stall. I didn’t expect the person in charge of Wright Construction Group would one day be forced to escape through a window. I can barely hold back my laughter.

Natasha was dumbfounded and started suspecting Gwendolyn again when she saw the grin on the latter’s face. “If you’re the only person in the restroom, how do you explain the ringtone from earlier?”

In response, Gwendolyn waved her hand instead of answering the question as though she was saying, “Figure the answer out yourself.”
