The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 487 Stealing At The Party

With that in mind, he lifted his blue eyes slightly and stared intently at the crescent moon outside the

window.

He suddenly thought of something. With that, he slipped his hand into his pocket and took out a small package of powder. It was barely the size of a fingernail.

He softly stroked the paper bag with his fingertips. His gaze held a profound mystery as he pondered over something in silence.

After four days of treatment, Jennifer finally regained consciousness.

In a state of weakness and despair, she kept her eyes partially open. It was rather unusual that she didn’t resort to self-harm or madness. Instead, she appeared disoriented and detached as if her soul had been taken away.

Gwendolyn, Treyton, and Brian all stared at her with tension as Jennifer leaned against the headboard.

Treyton’s eyes turned red as he suppressed his excitement. “Jennifer, I’m Treyton, your boyfriend. Do you

remember me?”

Jennifer kept her head lowered the whole time, showing absolutely no response. It was as if she hadn’t heard him speak at all.

Gwendolyn also leaned in and whispered gently, “Do you still recognize me? I was your best friend back in Fairlake Orphanage.”

If it weren’t for her intermittent eye blinking. Gwendolyn and Treyton would have thought she was asleep.

Brian, who was beside her, documented her condition and sighed while shaking his head. “It’s still not working. Regular medication can only manage her agitation. Without knowing the underlying cause, it’s difficult to cure her.”

For now, the only thing they could do was wait for Charles’ welcome party.

The party would be held at the Newton residence. It would be the best time for them to make a move.

Gwendolyn sighed without a sound and said, “Jennifer, do you still remember Craig?

Jennifer could only blink her eyes. When she heard the name, she slowly lifted her eyes and said calmly, “He is my second brother.”

Treyton turned around in surprise and exchanged glances with Gwendolyn.
