Chapter 38 Unbelievable The two people in the living room had already fought two rounds by then.

+25 Bonus Gwendolyn failed to land her first strike, and eventually, her stamina depleted.

She was no match for Maverick in terms of strength, and she was wearing heels-an inconvenient kind of footwear.

Thus, she was soon forced to the wall without realizing it.

Maverick curled his lips.

In the next second, he grabbed her left wrist and moved to pin it against the wall, which was something he used to do.

This time, however, Gwendolyn learned her lesson.

She knew that he was going to restrain her hands.

and force her up against the wall.

So, while he was distracted as he tried to grab her left wrist, she pressed the secret button on her ring with her right hand.

A silver needle popped out in response.

Caught by surprise, Maverick was soon forced to stop what he was doing when the silver needle was pressed against his Adam’s apple.

Thank god I’m wearing the ring Kieran has given to me for self-defense.

Although the needle is small, it’s unusually sturdy.

It was as if time had frozen for the two of them.

They were so close that they could almost feel each other’s breaths.

Maverick’s Adam’s apple bobbed up and down as he swallowed, and a crimson drop of blood rolled down from his neck and stained the collar of his white shirt like a tiny blooming flower.

He furrowed his brows.

“Must you be this ruthless?” Gwendolyn sneered.

“For clingy rats like you? Yes.

” Maverick’s lips curled even more, and he inched closer to her.

It was as if he was certain she would not have the courage to end his life in the mansion.

“Take another step closer to me, and I won’t hesitate slitting your throat.

You can try if you don’t believe me.

” Gwendolyn’s words were spoken in a soft tone, but Maverick could see the steely resolution in her eyes.
