The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Meanwhile, the oblivious Charles was washing the lab’s toilet.

As they had to spend a long time cleaning, Benedict and Zendaya didn’t insist on them wearing female outfits.

Now that Charles and Nico could finally put their comfortable male clothing back on, they were a lot more diligent in their work.

Just as they were washing the last cubicle of the fourth-floor toilet and Charles was spraying water everywhere with a hose, a man in a professor’s garb walked in.

Turning around upon hearing the commotion, Charles made eye contact with the man, an action that stunned both of them.

It was the same man who wanted Charles’ contact the last time.

As an awkward look descended upon Charles’ face, he lowered his head to look at his outfit for the day. He was no longer dressed like a woman, so he didn’t feel weird this time.

However, the man scrutinized him from head to toe for a long while.

He was shocked to see Charles dressed like a man for the very first time.

Wow! There’s actually a man in this world who can dress up like a beautiful woman without putting on any makeup.

Without the wig and short skirt, Charles looked extremely dashing, his sky-blue eyes adding to the distinguished aura he exuded.

“What are you looking at? This is the toilet. Just go about your business.”

Despite Charles’ indifferent voice, the commanding tone within it was unmistakable.

The hostility he showed was further accentuated by the threatening look in his eyes.

The man was rendered speechless by Charles’ response. The thought of peeing in front of a man who was significantly more handsome simply felt weird.

Moreover, he had mistaken the latter as a pretty girl and even harbored designs upon “her.”

After a brief moment of awkwardness, the man turned to leave. “On second thought, I don’t feel like peeing anymore.”

Thereafter, Charles gave the man’s leaving silhouette a puzzled look.

That’s strange, why did he decide not to use the toilet after coming all the way here?
