05 Восто

In Gwendolyn’s records, there was only a single mention of an orphanage when she was fifteen years old. Yet, the young masters of the two powerful and influential families in Salinsburgh claimed to have known her since childhood.

Gould she also come from one of the major families in Salinsburgh? But why did she end up at Fairlake Orphanage and coincidentally saved Declan?

Not long after she married him, she suddenly initiated a divorce. While he was away, she swiftly seized control of the Wright family’s power and claimed their residence as her own, even going as far as to send Asher’s men to kill him.

Could it be that everything was premeditated from the very beginning?

If that is the case, is her so-called debt just an act?

Is her insistence that he pay her back for three years of her youth merely an attempt to dispel suspicion. and provoke his guilt?

Maverick’s dark eyes grew serious as the doubts in his heart deepened.

Maverick was lost in thought. Before he knew it, the car had arrived at the entrance of the Wright residence.

Maverick wanted to go in by himself, so he turned to the two bodyguards and said, “You two, wait at the door. I’ll enter and have a quick look. I’ll be out shortly after exchanging a few words.”

The bodyguard’s expression was resolute. “I’m sorry, but Ms. Shalders has instructed us to not move a step from you and protect you at all times. Mr. Wright, please don’t make our job difficult.”

To not move a step from me? Gwendolyn really is guarding against me cautiously.

“Alright, you may come along, but when I engage in conversation with my mother and Sheralyn, can yout kindly maintain a bit of distance and refrain from eavesdropping on our conversation?” Maverick requested.

The two bodyguards exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.

Due to Frida’s seniority and her personal experience of hardships during her childhood, she understood the value of persevering through difficulties. As a result, Hannah and the other housekeepers did not deliberately make things difficult for her. On the other hand, Sheralyn was young and impetuous and had been resistant to Hannah’s orders. Consequently, Frida and Sheralyn were assigned different tasks.

Sheralyn was assigned to clean the toilets, even having to scrub the dirty ones in the servants’ quarters.

Since she was closer, Maverick decided to visit her first.

Upon receiving the news, the housekeeper promptly released Sheralyn from her duties ahead of schedule and arranged for her to wait for Maverick in the hallway.

Sheralyn, dressed as a maid, had red-rimmed eyes, suggesting that she had been crying for an extended period of time.
