The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Cedrick’s expression turned dark, and he didn’t say a word.

Nico continued, “Boss, you should restrain yourselves. Overindulging in your desires can harm your health!”

Cedrick’s expression darkened further.

Nico’s words weren’t pleasant to the ears, but he was telling the truth.

Cedrick wasn’t a tyrant, so he gave a nod in agreement.

Cedrick clicked into it and put on a stern expression. “An organization is causing trouble at the border. Pack up, and we’ll leave tomorrow night.”

“Got it, Boss.”

Her subordinate from Shadow Bell had already organized the information regarding Evelyn and sent it to her email.
