The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

This voice…

Gwendolyn’s eyes were red with surprise as she looked out the door.

Cedrick walked in solemnly. His black coat was covered with snow.

Behind him was Nico, whose expression was equally grave.

Right then, two armed military troops with different uniforms entered the cathedral in an orderly manner and surrounded the place.

The guests were scared out of their wits. In a flash, the scene became chaotic.

Staring at the man standing at the other end of the red carpet, Charles gritted his teeth. “What great timing, Cedrick. Are you here to crash my wedding?” His gaze was filled with hatred.

Curling his lips sarcastically, Cedrick said, “Well, someone doesn’t have his heart in the right place. He abducted my fiancée to a foreign country and forced her to marry him, so I have to come and take my woman away.”

Charles clenched his fists tightly. The hatred in him intensified.

All the guests in the cathedral were from the royal family invited by Kylie. Although the conversation between Charles and Cedrick was in Chanaean, most of the royals could still understand it.

They went into an uproar as soon as they heard what Cedrick said. Shifting their gazes between the two men, they began to mutter among themselves.

Feeling humiliated, Kylie wanted to help Charles explain and minimize the damage caused. However, Cedrick spoke first. “Everyone, I’m only here for the bridegroom today. I won’t harm those who are not involved. Nico, clear the place!”

In less than five minutes, all the royals were driven out, including the priest.

Soon, only Cedrick and his men, Charles, Gwendolyn, and Kylie were left in the large cathedral.

The atmosphere was tense.

Charles shot daggers at Cedrick and said through gritted teeth, “Do you actually think I’m unprepared?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Kylie stood up and clapped her hands.

A group of armed guards dashed out of the door next to the altar. They weren’t any less than the people Cedrick had brought with him.

Both sides had their guns raised, and the air was thick with tension.
