The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 86 How Dare She Be So Arrogant

The voices of the people discussing were not loud, but Frida and her two companions could hear them clearly.

The impulsive Sheralyn immediately blew her top. “What nonsense are you all talking about?! My brother is doing just fine. How dare you curse him and wish for his death! You ill-mannered buffoons…”

Sheralyn, sweetheart, there’s no need to argue. The Wright family has a strong foundation; it won’t be shaken by a few disparaging words.”

Frida had to hold her back. Although she was also quite angry, she still managed to maintain the demeanor of a wealthy and elegant lady in front of the outsiders.

Some time ago, the Wright family and the Mossey family were not on good terms due to the broken engagement. Not only that, there were numerous speculations among the public about Maverick’s

absence.

She deliberately dressed up and attended the public event this time to show everyone that the Wright family was still as powerful as ever.

“But Mom, they…”

Sheralyn, who had been pampered since childhood, was not willing to put up with this kind of

treatment.

She wanted to continue arguing, but her wrist was gently held back by Samantha, who stood next to her, dressed in an elegant skirt.

Samantha leaned in close to her ear and whispered something softly.

Upon hearing that, Sheralyn instinctively looked up at the crowd on the second floor, where Gwendolyn was standing with Madelyn, the wife of Jerome Mossey.

Gwendolyn was also watching her.

As their eyes met, Gwendolyn let out a soft chuckle and turned her head to talk to Treyton.

However, to Sheralyn, her seemingly ordinary smile was filled with provocation.

Sheralyn muttered under her breath, “That despicable woman!”

“Don’t worry.” Samantha patted her on the shoulder. “She won’t be able to act so arrogantly for long!”

As the three of them exchanged glances, their faces instantly lit up with smiles.
