Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 137

Nico? This name sounds rather familiar.

“How is he related to Noah?” Gwendolyn asked.

Maverick did not intend to hide it from her and truthfully responded, “He’s my subordinate.”

The woman propped her chin on her hand, resting her elbow on her knee. Tilting her head to one side, she observed him.

Her mannerism was exceptionally charming. Maverick had the opportunity to look at her delicate features from a close distance, and his heart skipped a beat at that.

Does she realize how enchanting she looks right now?

Just when he was lost in his thoughts, Gwendolyn piped up, “I can’t believe that your subordinates are still willing to stand by you during such a difficult time. You must have some private assets, am I right?”

Maverick’s private assets were nothing compared to his other secrets. However, he could not reveal them to her at this moment.

Nevertheless, he was a little happy. “Are you trying to manage my private assets as well? I don’t care much about money. If you want them, I can hand them all over to you.”

Gwendolyn rolled her eyes at him.

“I’m not interested in your money. I’m just curious why you didn’t use your money to reclaim the Wright residence. At least your mother and your sister can live more comfortably.”

The man simply lowered his head. “My mother is a mean woman, and my sister is spoiled. They bullied you, so I want to punish them.”

His words were slightly startling. “I’m only your ex-wife, but they’re your family. How can you treat them so callously?” asked Gwendolyn.

Nevertheless, Maverick had always been a man of principles.

“A mistake is a mistake. I won’t show favoritism. This is also a good opportunity for them to improve their characters.”

Although there was nothing wrong with what he said, Gwendolyn still felt something was not right.

“Let’s not talk about Sheralyn, but Frida is your mother. Aren’t you afraid she’ll berate you for being unfilial?”

Maverick’s head hung lower, and Gwendolyn could no longer see his expression.

He fell silent for a moment before saying, “She can endure this hardship. I’ll help her if she can’t take it anymore.”

Hearing this, she had to admit that the way he handled the matter was impressive.

“I’m heading back to Angle now. You should get back to your work.”

“All right.”

Gwendolyn got up and walked toward the door. From the corner of her eye, she noticed that Maverick was still on his knee. “I’m leaving. Aren’t you going to stand up?”

His face turned pale at her words. “My… legs have gone numb.”

The woman gave a little chuckle. Ignoring him, she opened the door and walked out of the office.
