Wooing My Ex-Wife by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 589 Evil

Gwendolyn had always spoken bluntly, and while that didn’t set well with Annie, the latter said nothing. Ultimately, the winner takes it all. I’ve indeed failed to kill Gwendolyn. I wasn’t meticulous enough and didn’t do a splendid job, so there’s no use in arguing.

As they walked one behind the other, Annie piped up. “My dear sister, the layout of this villa is a little different as it has been modified. Allow me to give you a little tour today.”

Right after she finished talking, she took off like lightning.

Gwendolyn immediately gave chase. As she was about to catch up, Annie quickly hit a switch on the wall.

Suddenly, a large metal cage descended from above, trapping them both inside.

Gwendolyn surveyed the cage without showing a hint of panic. “What tricks are you trying to play now?”

Despite Annie’s innocent and adorable smile, her heart was actually filled with malice.

She opened the lid of a nearby oil drum and kicked the drum over.

Yellow oil gurgled out, spreading across the floor.

Gwendolyn, I know being taken back to the Harris residence by you means another round of hellish torment. Since you won’t spare me, why don’t we perish together? What do you think?”

Gwendolyn remained completely still and incredibly calm.

“If I can’t exit this villa within ten minutes, I won’t be the only one who dies. Once Cedrick is enraged, Paul, who’s desperately protecting you, won’t be able to leave Chanaea in one piece.”

Annic nonchalantly fidgeted with her fingernails, then took out a lighter to fiddle with it. “He doesn’t truly care for me. Even if Cedrick kills him, he deserves it. He’s just infatuated with my body, while I’m merely using him for the power he can give me. Our relationship involves nothing more than mutual aid.”

Gwendolyn lowered her gaze at the oil flowing in her direction.

Your mother was indeed sick, and her condition was quite severe, but what really broke her was discovering our father’s infidelity, finding out that the man she considered a good husband, Marcus, had actually had an affair.” She couldn’t stop herself from chuckling at the mention of the past. “I was young back then, but I remember it all. Our dad bought us a small villa, and your mother sneaked over

the hospital to visit your mother, wanting to beg for her forgiveness. It was I who removed her breathing tube when there was no one in the ward. I thought my mother could marry into the Harris family if I did that, and I could become the legitimate daughter of a wealthy family. Dad knew about this, but I cried a little, played innocent, and he let that matter slide. He used all his connections to help me suppress this matter. Unexpectedly, he was willing to marry Lorelai, who graduated from a prestigious university, rather than my uneducated and backgroundless mom. In the end, I could only remain an
