The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 845 The Boss Is Being Weird Today

The luxury car drove out of the Newton Group, Whitney, in a good mood, couldn’t help but hum a song. However, she dared not sing too loudly for fear of Charles’ ridicule.

Every now and then, she would steal a glance at Charles, taking in his stern, cold features.

Noticing the gaze of the lady next to him, Charles deliberately met her eyes and teased, “What’s the matter? Has your husband’s handsomeness left you dazed?”

Upon hearing his joke, Whitney’s cheeks instantly turned red. She huffed lightly and muttered under her breath. “W-who goes around saying they’re handsome?)

Charles disagreed and said, “It’s called confidence.”

Whitney turned her head away, no longer speaking.

At night, after taking a bath, Whitney sat by the window, enjoying the breeze.

She closed her eyes in enjoyment, relishing the comforting feeling of the gentle breeze caressing her face.

When Charles came out of the bathroom, he saw her leisurely swinging her legs by the window, looking quite content.

However, the evening breeze was still quite chilly. She might catch a cold if she didn’t put on more layers.

Charles brought over a small blanket and threw it over her. His words, however, were far from caring. “If you catch a cold, I’m docking your pay.”

“Achoo!”

Whitney sneezed before turning around to glare at him. She raised her little fists and protested, “Even if you’re the boss, you shouldn’t bully your employees like this, should you?”

The two of them bickered a while longer before heading to bed.

Bright and early the next morning, Charles was already working in the CEO’s office.

Today, he was once again dressed in a black suit, but what was different was the new color of the tie around his neck.

His thoughts wandered even as his gaze roamed over the documents before him.

He casually picked up the aromatherapy diffuser on his table. It was something Whitney had brought over one day, claiming his office looked too simple.
