The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 262 Dark Path

A pair of dark eyes stared back at her.

“Y–You… It’s you…”

Gwendolyn’s red–lacquered lips lifted into a sneer. “Lisa, I didn’t expect you to fall so far!”

She twisted Lisa’s wrist with a snap.

“Ouch! My wrist!”

Lisa’s face contorted in pain. The dagger in her hand clattered to the ground.

Gwendolyn raised her high–heeled foot and kicked her hard across her thigh.

Lisa fell to the ground. She scrambled around but could not muster the strength to stand up again.

The assistant, manager, and staff watching the scene were all frightened.

“Why are you still standing there like an idiot? Go and help Jennifer wash up!” Gwendolyn growled.

“Yes, yes, yes!”

The assistant quickly grabbed a dry towel, wrapped it around Jennifer’s body, and led her to the bathroom.

Lisa was dissatisfied to see that her plan had failed.

She had used the last of her savings to get Jennifer’s schedule for her Barner shoot.

“Why did you have to save her? I was ridiculed by the entire network! I had to leave Papilio Girls! I owe millions of dollars! All of this is because of her! Damn her!” Lisa screamed hysterically at Gwendolyn.

Gwendolyn snorted, still sneering.

“I am the one who leaked your nude photo and issued the order to remove you from Papilio Girls. I am the one who did this to you. Well, I’m standing in front of you right now. Come and kill me if you dare.”
