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.

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.
