The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 602 Get Used To It Soon

While he was feeling frustrated over that thought, the burly man behind him hit his head.

Xander yelped in pain, his head spinning. There was something sticky flowing down the side of his head.

The world spun around him, and he felt as if he was momentarily cast into hell.

Did he break my skull? What the h*ll is this?

“Help! I’m getting killed! Someone save me!” he shouted toward the outside of the cell, but no one answered him.

Even the other men locked up with him were quietly sitting at the side, watching him get beat up by the burly man. They had no intention of helping him out.

Xander was thin and weak, so he would not be able to withstand many punches from the big man.

While he was being made into a human punching bag by the big man, he shouted, “I hate Cedrick! He has always bullied me since young! I’m going to kill him one day and make him pay the price for what he did

to me!”

At that, the big man stopped assaulting him. Taking in Xander’s fear, he scoffed in disdain. “You can’t even beat me in a fight. What makes you think you can kill Cedrick?”

Xander finally had a break from the beating. Every bruised spot was screaming in agony, but Xander wiped the blood coming out of his nose with his sleeve before gritting out, “You’re right. I can’t win him in a fight, but I have the brains. My father is Yael Jenson. Once I’m out of here, I’m going to make Cedrick pay!”

The big man was starting to believe him. “Is your father a powerful man? Can he really win against Cedrick?”

Xander was spouting nonsense, but to avoid getting beaten again, he was voluntarily lying through his teeth.

“Of course! My dad’s way more powerful than Cedrick. If my grandfather hadn’t helped Cedrick out, my father would have been the head of the household! But my grandfather is old now. Once he dies, Cedrick won’t have anyone backing him up anymore. He’ll be an easy target for me and my father. That’s why Cedrick’s in such a rush to get rid of me. I won’t let him get his way!”

As he looked at the big man with an appeasing smile, he continued, “Has Cedrick hurt many of

of your friends? Don’t worry. Once I’m out of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, I’ll definitely take revenge on him on behalf of you!”
