The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Back then, admiration, fondness, and affection were written all over Inez’s face whenever she saw him.

However, her expression appeared complicated this time.

After struggling internally for a long time, she lowered her eyes and finally said, “Mr. Kieran, I’m very sorry for bothering you for half a year back then.”

Staring at her quietly, Kieran said nothing and waited for her to continue.

“I might never bother you again from now you because my dad decided to marry me off to the Campbell family. I’m engaged now.”

Kieran’s expression froze. Pursing his lips and contemplating for a while, he uttered, “Well, congratulations.”

His words stabbed into Inez’s heart like a dagger, the agony so intense that she could feel it all over her body.

Resisting the urge to cry, she acted tough and said, “I know you never liked me. I was being hopeful for so long. From now on, I will wash away my feelings for you bit by bit until I can completely let go of them and never bother you ever again.”

As she reached the end of her sentence, her voice grew thicker, while her eyes couldn’t help but redden as tears welled up in them.

Although she was an independent career woman in the business world, she was a fool longing for the person she loved to reciprocate her feelings when it came to love.

However, Kieran’s congratulations had snapped her back to reality.

Noticing her sorrow, Kieran slowly reached out his hand to comfort her.

However, in the next instant, his arm hung in mid-air as he didn’t know what right he had to do so.

While he was still in a dilemma, Inez had already decided.

“Goodbye, Mr. Kieran.”

After leaving him with those final-sounding words, she turned around and ran away.

Kieran’s hand was still frozen in the air. He stood transfixed for a long time without budging, unable to discern how he felt. Strangely, his heart was filled with complicated emotions.
