The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 635 Lose Oneself

With a sweep of his arms, Kieran pulled the covers over them.

Inez, still feeling uneasy, asked, “Mr. Kieran, Gwendolyn and Mr. Jenson are in the next room. Won’t they hear us if we’re too loud?”

“No. The walls of this hotel room are thick and well soundproofed.”

“But-

“No buts.” Kieran decisively sealed her lips with his, kissing her passionately.

“Don’t worry. Kiddo and Cedrick must be tired and will probably wake up late. They won’t say anything.”

Subsequently, Inez stopped asking questions, willingly succumbing to Kieran’s tenderness.

Meanwhile, in the room next door, the drapes were tightly drawn, blocking any light from filtering into the room and obscuring the intimate scene inside from view.

Gwendolyn’s waist was utterly sore from making love with Cedrick for most of the night. Only at that point did he relent out of compassion.

By morning, they had barely managed to sleep a few hours. Feeling extremely tired, they even planned to skip breakfast.

In the pitch-black, confined space, Gwendolyn nestled in the nook of Cedrick’s arm.

Their bodies were pressed again each other as their breaths intermingled while they slept soundly.

After resting for another hour, Gwendolyn was awakened by her phone on the bedside table, which rang as she received a video call invitation on WhatsApp.

Supporting her aching waist, she slowly sat up and reached for the device on the bedside table.

The video call was from Charles.

Before going on that trip, she had made a special arrangement with Charles. They would video call every morning so she could see her children. Only by knowing they were safe and in good health could she enjoy her vacation at Turlen with peace of mind.
