The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 611 Safe And Luxurious

Watching his son lose control of his emotions to this extent and being unable to help in any way while facing the imposing Cedrick at the door, Yael felt utterly powerless.

He hugged Xander heartbrokenly and glared at Cedrick.

Cedrick lazily took off the leather gloves that had just touched Xander and tossed them to the police

officer.

As he was about to leave, he left one final remark. “This is your last chance. If I don’t get the answer I want before ten o’clock tonight, then I might as well go down with you in this matter. However, I’m not losing anything. I never knew the truth behind my parents’ death in the first place, and I will continue to be unaware of it in the future. I have nothing to lose. It’s not the same for you, though. You have to bear the loss of your only precious son. When it comes to this, I believe you are better at calculating than I am.”

He smirked and snorted before turning around to leave, allowing the father and son duo to have their

moments.

In the prison cell. Yael took nearly half an hour to calm Xander down and make him listen quietly to what he had to say.

“What exactly did Cedrick do to you in the past two days? How did you get arrested again?”

Looking at Xander’s injuries all over his body, Yael spoke in a softer tone.

Xander sobbed, “Dad, before I could board the freighter. Neville captured me at the dock. I couldn’t outrun him, and when I tried to jump into the water, I was quickly pulled back to shore again. They immediately handcuffed me and forced me into a car, taking me to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.”

He swallowed a lump in his throat and recalled everything he had experienced in that prison cell. His whole body trembled uncontrollably. He was overwhelmed by fear.

“Dad, the people in my previous prison cell are all se mbags. They even tried to assault me, and they would beat the crap out of me every few hours. They said the smell of blood on me was unbearable and forced me to sleep in a filthy toilet. It’s really driving me crazy! Dad, save me! I really don’t wanna go back in anymore! They will beat me to death for sure! Please, Dad!”

Yael patted his back and kept comforting him. “I won’t allow you to be sent back again. I will save you and make sure you live a safe and luxurious life again.”

Safe and luxurious?

When Xander heard what his father said, it felt like heaven to him.
