The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Cedrick paid no heed to her words. With an icy look in his eyes, he demanded, “Where’s Gwendolyn?”

His words stunned the woman and caused her expression to grow increasingly awkward.

“Hubby, what are you talking about? I’m Gwendolyn, your wife.”

Cedrick got to his feet and stormed forward. Looking down at her, he repeated patiently, “I’m asking you where Gwendolyn is?”

As the woman continued to feign ignorance, she lowered her eyes in an attempt to avoid his gaze.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. You’re behaving strangely. I’m leaving this place.”

Just as she attempted to get up, Cedrick grabbed her by the neck and pinned her back down.

In close proximity, the murderous intent in his bloodshot eyes was unmistakable. They looked more terrifying than the torture equipment fastened against the wall.

“I’m a patient man. If I don’t get the answer that I’m looking for, you’ll suffer a fate worse than death.”

Cedrick would show no mercy to such a despicable woman.

Suffocating from the overwhelming pressure he exuded, the woman struggled desperately to pry open his grip over her neck. Unfortunately, it was nothing but a futile effort.

“W-When did you see through the charade?” As the woman eked out the words, her neck was hurting so badly that tears had begun to flow.

As the way she grimaced looked exactly like Gwendolyn, Cedrick released his grip subconsciously, allowing her to collapse onto the ground.

Turning around with his hands behind his back to avoid looking at her face—which unsettled him—he replied, “My suspicions started the day I rescued you from Quawak.”

The answer shocked the woman. “How? I look exactly like her. Our voices might be a little different, but I pretended to have lost my voice the entire time.”

For the sake of her mission, she had learned Gwendolyn’s poise and facial expressions. Even the most minute of details didn’t escape her notice. Yet, she was exposed on the very first day Cedrick saw her.
