The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 803 Releasing Megan

Benedict nodded. “I understand, Mommy. I’m just a bit short of breath.”

Upon hearing him gasping for breath, everyone in the ward became instantly worried. Joshua quickly hooked Benedict up to various medical devices and examined the child.

Gwendolyn inhaled sharply. Seeing that, Cedrick pulled her into his arms, softly comforting her. “Don’t worry. Everything will be all right.”

After a series of inspections. Joshua finally breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appearing on his face.

“Benny’s health indicators are all the same as before. It’s just that his fall resulted in excessive physical activity, so he appears a bit weak. He just needs a good rest to be fine.”

Hearing that, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Zendaya gently touched Benedict’s leg, feeling somewhat guilty. She cooed softly. “Don’t be bothered by the pain, okay? Tonight, I will tell you a story, okay?”

Benedict raised an eyebrow. “Stories like Snow White again? I prefer the ones where the wolf comes to eat the children.”

Although his face was a bit pale, he still had the energy to joke around, which showed that he was doing well.

Gwendolyn relaxed.

At that moment. Cedrick’s phone vibrated twice. It was a message from Swain.

Seeing a change in his expression, Gwendolyn glanced at him. Cedrick silently walked out of the ward.

Swain: Boss, there’s new information. Megan’s house has been searched. According to our people, they probably know we’ve taken Megan.

Megan had been constantly watched by that group of people. If she were released, they would surely kill

her.

However, if they continued to detain Megan, the investigation would come to a standstill. Therefore, whether to release Megan or not was a tough decision to make.

Swain: Boss, please give your instructions,
