The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 426

With that, Cedrick’s wish to have an “unforgettable” wedding night was finally fulfilled.

The pleasure he experienced after being “tortured” was like a heavenly gift.

That night, Gwendolyn, too, had an unforgettable wedding night.

In contrast to her ecstatic experience, Cedrick had one that left a lot to be desired.

When morning arrived, rays of the morning sun bathed the room as they pierced through the half-opened curtains. The light clearly illuminated Gwendolyn’s and Cedrick’s exquisite-looking faces.

Cedrick was sprawled on the bed with his hand wrapped around Gwendolyn’s chest.

Even in his sleep, he had already made it a habit to avoid putting any pressure on her abdomen.

After spending the entire night consummating their marriage, both of them were so exhausted that they fell into a deep slumber.

It wasn’t until Gwendolyn’s phone rang that she reached out for it groggily.

It’s Ezra again.

Ezra had called to report that he and William had allowed Evelyn to escape.

“I’m sorry, Ms. Harris. We let our guard down for a moment when she seemed to be cooperating. We didn’t expect her to team up with Margaret’s son, Norman, to drug us and flee. We’re ready to accept any punishment you mete out.”

Ignoring his comment about the punishment, Gwendolyn inquired languidly, “Where is she now? Have you found her?”

“No, we trawled the river downstream the entire day but found nothing. We even searched the few villages downriver too. Since she was suffering from a gunshot wound, could she have been killed by the river’s bone-chilling cold?”

“Even then, we still need her body as proof.”

Gwendolyn’s voice took on a frosty tone as she instructed, “Continue the hunt and search the villages downriver again. She wouldn’t have gotten far and must be hiding in one of them.”

“Understood.”

With that, Gwendolyn ended the call. After she was interrupted by the report, her sleepiness had long dissipated. Thus, she sat up with her back against the headboard.
