The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Cedrick was speechless. I doubt there’s anything I can say to calm her down.

Thus, he unwillingly returned to the couch and dove back into his work.

The room went silent, and neither of them uttered another word for hours.

Another two hours passed before Parker slowly opened the door. Instead of entering the room, she waited for Gwendolyn outside. “There’ll be a shareholder meeting in fifteen minutes, Ms. Harris. All directors are already waiting for you in the conference room.”

“All right. I’ll be there soon.” Upon turning off her computer, Gwendolyn glanced at Cedrick, who was wholly focused on his writing.

Instead of bothering him, she headed to the conference room.

When the directors spotted Gwendolyn, their expressions turned serious, and the atmosphere shifted subtly.

Meanwhile, Robert, who met with her at the office earlier, glared at her.

Gwendolyn noticed it, but she ignored him and started the meeting.

The meeting was boring as it was primarily about the reports on the monthly sales, the progress of various projects, and other things. It lasted for an hour and a half.

Gwendolyn felt a little tired, she didn’t show it on her face and continued to listen attentively.

Eventually, the meeting reached its end. Gwendolyn customarily announced, “If there’s nothing else, our monthly meeting will end here.”
