The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Approaching with respect, the nurse placed the pill box from her tray onto the table in front of Gwendolyn.

Gwendolyn cradled her baby in one arm, feeding the little one with a bottle. With her free hand, she reached for the pill box on the table and examined its contents.

The nurse stood quietly beside her.

Before she touched the pill box, Gwendolyn suddenly noticed something strange.

“That’s not right. On the first day of a new medication regimen, the attending physician should personally administer it. Furthermore, the doctor should be the one to bring the medicine and communicate the dosage to me instead of a nurse.”

She turned her head. “Why are you here?”

A sinister gleam appeared in the nurse’s eyes. The moment Gwendolyn turned to look at the nurse, the latter swiftly produced a syringe filled with anesthesia from behind her back and ruthlessly stabbed it toward Gwendolyn’s neck.

Gwendolyn, holding the baby, struggled to fight back with one hand, finding it challenging to exert force. Meanwhile, the nurse viciously used both hands to overpower her.

The needle pierced Gwendolyn’s neck, but she clenched her teeth and unleashed a powerful kick, causing the nurse to stumble to the side. The sedative in the nurse’s hand failed to enter Gwendolyn’s body.

A thin scratch marred Gwendolyn’s fair skin, and small droplets of blood began to well up from the wound.

Benedict began crying in discomfort at the sudden, lurching movements.

Gwendolyn did not have time to console him. In response, she swiftly placed him back in the crib, covered him with a thin veil, and engaged in a fierce battle with the woman in the nurse’s uniform.

Free of the hindrance of holding the baby, Gwendolyn, a skilled black belt practitioner of jiu-jitsu, swiftly gained the upper hand in the fight and ended it in no time.

Pressing down on the woman’s artery, Gwendolyn immobilized her by pinning her arms onto the table. She demanded, “Who sent you? What have you done to the police officers outside?”

Not only was the commotion loud, but the battle taking place in the room could also be partially seen through the small glass window in the ward.

However, the cops Cedrick had stationed outside the door did not come bursting in when they heard the commotion. Something must have happened to them.
