The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 319 A Sweet Romantic Atmosphere

By the time Gwendolyn rushed over to grab ahold of the parcel, it was already too late.

Cedrick had already opened the box, while Ezra was peeking into it curiously.

The content was a black and white dress, but with a unique style that was different from the usual style that Gwendolyn liked.

Confused, Cedrick asked, “You don’t usually like this type of style, right? And why are you so nervous about a piece of clothing?”

Gwendolyn smiled. “I’m not being nervous. Can’t I change my dressing style occasionally?”

Just when she tried to take the box and bring it back to the adjacent room to hide it, Ezra lifted the clothes and found a pair of furry cat ears, a fluffy tail, a bell collar, and a pair of black stockings underneath.

“Oh my! Are you planning on cosplaying, Ms. Harris? That’s so romantic!” he exclaimed

Gwendolyn froze on the spot, completely mortified.

Noticing that this wasn’t just a simple dress, Cedrick began to carefully examine the small items in the box.

Realization dawned on him when he saw the pair of black stockings.

He proceeded to close the box calmly before turning to look at Ezra and saying, “Take Quinton with you and go to Angle Corporation to help Nico. Also, inform the other bodyguards in the villa that no matter what they hear, they are not allowed to disturb us.”

“Yes, Mr. Jenson.”

As soon as Ezra left, Cedrick immediately closed and locked the door.

As his lips curled upward slightly, he lifted the black stockings from the box and looked at Gwendolyn, asking, “Care to explain, Gwenny?”

Blushing with embarrassment, Gwendolyn averted her gaze. “I… probably bought them by mistake. I have no idea what they are either.”

“Is that so?” It was obvious Cedrick didn’t believe her.

He trained his obsidian eyes on her and added, “You know, I just thought of a better idea of how to deal with you!”

“Huh?” Gwendolyn had a bad feeling about it.

Cedrick handed the box to her and uttered, “Put it on.”

“I really bought them by mistake! I’ll return them to the store later!” came Gwendolyn’s response.

She reached out to take the box, but Cedrick quickly pulled it back. “Since you’ve already bought it, why not give it a try? Didn’t you just admit that you were planning something for me? Since that’s the case, shouldn’t you listen to my request?”

“Does that mean this is some form of punishment?” she asked.
