The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 552 You Should Feel Guilty Instead

It was Jennifer’s first time seeing Treyton in such a crestfallen state since she regained consciousness.

Recalling that she was indeed at fault in the matter, she gentled her tone. “Never mind, I’ll forgive you this once. I was wrong to secretly leave without informing you today, making you worry. I apologize.”

Following her apology. Treyton forced a smile. “What a good girl, Jennifer. You can’t do it again next time. Take two bodyguards with you and text me, okay?”

Jennifer said nothing.

If I were to take two bodyguards with me, they’d dog my every step, and there’d always been two pairs of eyes watching me. Such a feeling is awful, making me uneasy all over.

Nonetheless, she relented upon glimpsing the man’s eyes that dimmed once more. “I’ll definitely text you and inform you about where I’m going. But as for the bodyguards… can that depend on the situation? In an instance like today whereby I went gaming with Gwendolyn, I’d be perturbed to have two people watching at the side.”

In other words, she conceded to one of the requests and declined the other.

That would necessitate them both compromising.

To Treyton, he was already satisfied that she agreed to text him. “Okay, whatever you say, Jennifer.”

When they had reached a consensus, Jennifer remained standing at the side. She felt somewhat unsettled by his intent stare.

Remembering the matter they had yet to do that night, she cautiously asked, “Are you still going to test me tonight, Mr. Treyton?”

Treyton held her gaze. Clocking the discomfiture and trepidation in her eyes, he countered. “Do you want me to do so, Jennifer?”

Jennifer wavered for a moment before ultimately choosing to speak her mind. “I hadn’t been in the mood the entire day, so I wasn’t concentrating much when I studied. Little stuck to my mind. If you were to test me, I’d undoubtedly flop.”

All of a sudden, Treyton recalled Gwendolyn saying that Jennifer’s academic foundation was weak and urging him to be more patient.

Thus, he understandingly pulled her over to him.

“Then, I won’t test you tonight. Consider it as your day off, Jennifer.”
