The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 640 Has A Formidable Rival

After visiting the few renowned tourist attractions in Turlen, Gwendolyn, Cedrick, and the others took a flight to Moranta.

Having traveled for several days in succession, Gwendolyn and Inez were exhausted. They fell asleep as soon as they got onto the plane.

Cedrick and Kieran were men at the end of the day, so they had much more energy. Despite working overtime at night, they were still as energetic as ever after getting some shut-eye.

Cedrick draped a thin blanket over his wife before gathering her in his arms.

Not to be outdone, Kieran, who had learned how to pamper his woman over the past two days, did the same for Inez. On top of that, he thoughtfully requested a glass of orange juice for fear that she would be thirsty upon waking up.

Cedrick noticed that small attentive act. Mirth danced in his ebony eyes.

“Not bad. You’ve improved a lot these two days, Kieran. You even thought of having orange juice at the ready.”

However, Kieran coldly shot him a glare. “Look at Kiddo. She’s resting no sooner had she boarded the plane. You should’ve restrained yourself for the past few nights and taken mercy on her instead of tiring her out to such an extent.”

With a faint smile on his face and in his eyes, Cedrick calmly took a sip of coffee. “Right back at you, Kieran.”

At once, Kieran’s expression darkened. Animosity and hostility between the two men brewed in silence.

The fact that Inez had been paying much attention to Cedrick and had a high opinion of him throughout their recent vacation the past few days upset Kieran.

Thus, he desperately wanted to surpass his brother-in-law in all aspects to obtain her approval,

Although Cedrick was oblivious to the man’s thoughts, he could distinctly sense his hostility in the past two days. Hence, he squared up with the man without backing down.

As they stared daggers at each other, Cedrick’s nose abruptly itched. Without warning, he sneezed several times in a row.

For once, a flash of something different flittered across Kieran’s frosty eyes. “It looks like you’ve overtaxed yourself these two days, leading to a drop in your stamina and immunity, resulting in you having caught a cold, Cedrick.”
