The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 434

She turned around and headed deeper into the villa, leaving Cedrick to handle the guests.

When Cedrick saw the censure in her eyes, his heart clenched slightly. He temporarily left the party to Nico to follow her into the villa.

Two exquisite and adorable cribs were set up in the nursery on the third floor. One was pink, while the other was blue.

Gwendolyn closed the distance and saw the pink crib was empty. Zendaya was nowhere in sight, and Zoey was gone too.

Only Benedict was lying quietly in the blue crib.

Gwendolyn gasped in shock as a sense of uneasiness rose within her.

She whirled around to go in search but ran into Cedrick, who was behind her. Fisting his collar, she interrogated, “Cedrick, where’s Zendy?”

Cedrick was stunned by her question. “She had just fallen asleep when I left the room earlier. Calm down, Gwenny.”

The rim of her eyes turned red as her grip on his collar tightened. With a fierce glare, she threatened, “Cedrick Jenson, you’re as good as dead if my baby went missing because of you!”

All the blood drained from his face as the gravity of the situation dawned upon him.

It had been so long since she looked at me with such a fierce expression.

While he was rooted in place from the shock, Gwendolyn released his collar and raced out of the room. He hurriedly followed after her.

She searched every bedroom on the same floor, the bathroom, and the kitchen but still couldn’t find Zoey.

The anxiety within her grew as she rushed out of the villa and ran into Elven and Ezra. She then ordered them to keep an eye on the front and back doors and to momentarily stop anyone from leaving the house.

Her heart and body shook like a leaf from the horrible thoughts flashing across her mind. At that moment, she had the urge to run upstage and snatch the microphone to threaten those with bad intentions.

Cedrick immediately grabbed her wrist, stopping her from acting on her whims.
