Maverick laughed sarcastically.
This so-called right of choosing actually did not offer any real options to be chosen at all.

As he had been standing for a long time, the wound on his waist split open, and blood oozed out of it. The pain caused him to feel dizzy.
The innermost white shirt was stained with blood and stuck to the wotind, making him feel very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the black suit jacket concealed the blood, so Gwendolyn did not notice at all.
Maverick bit his thin and crimson lips tightly and strived to steady his breath, making it difficult for others. to notice anything unusual. Alright, it’s just one year. I can endure it!
He picked up the syringe and rolled up his suit jacket and shirt sleeve, aiming at the spot on his arm. He injected the syringe into his arm fiercely as if he was venting out his emotions.
Gwendolyn watched in silence. Noticing how Maverick was torturing himself with so much force, she furrowed her eyebrows.
How arrogant. Gwendolyn heard that the pain from the injection was rather unbearable, so she wanted to see how long the man could maintain his pride.
In just a few seconds, the small thumb-sized tube of drug was completely emptied.
Plop!
The sound of a syringe falling to the ground was emitted.
Maverick bit his lips tightly. The bite on his lower lip had left a row of bloody marks, and intense pairi rushed through his entire body. Soon, cold sweat drenched his forehead.
Every part of his body ached painfully, and with an existing injury on the waist, the immense pain lasted for almost two minutes before it gradually subsided.
However, what came afterward was a sense of fatigue as if it seeped deep into his bones.
Maverick felt exhausted that he could not even stand steadily. He fell to the ground weakly like a fallen leaf in the wind.
When he closed his eyes, there was a brief buzzing sound in his ears.
As soon as the buzzing sensation ended, a woman’s crisp and pleasant voice entered his ears. “When you first get this injection, the reaction you will get might be quite intense. Bear with it for a while.”
Maverick hung his head weakly and pursed his thin pale lips lightly together.
As he closed his eyes, his long eyelashes trembled slightly as if he was enduring some immense pain.
After the pain eased down slightly, the sound of high heels could be heard as it approached him.
Gwendolyn glanced down at Maverick and then crouched down, forcefully lifting the latter’s chin up to observe him closely.

Unlike his previous looks with a domineering and masculine demeanor, his handsome face at this moment was pale, and his sickly appearance made one want to tease him.

As Maverick slowly opened his eyes, a hint of vulnerability, which was barely noticeable, appeared in hist once overbearing dark pupils.
How rare indeed! Gwendolyn admired the man’s delicate and frail appearance, like that of a sickly beauty. With a satisfied smile, she said, “Good boy. How about you try to call me ‘Master’?”
The teasing words made Maverick very displeased, and a strong sense of humiliation welled up in his mind.
He glared at Gwendolyn angrily and used all his strength to break free from her hand, stubbornly turning his face away.
He seemed like a furious tiger that had been provoked.
Gwendolyn stopped teasing him and did not continue to push him any
further.
He had been arrogant for the first half of his life, so it was quite normal for him not to be able to get used to the current situation in a short time.
It would need time to guide and teach him slowly, and Gwendolyn had the patience to do that.
Then, Gwendolyn got up, no longer paying attention to Maverick, who was feeling weak on the floor. She gave him time to adjust to the drug on his own.
She returned to her desk and began to settle her work.
Now, in addition to handling trivial matters of Angle, she also had to deal with the matters of Wright Construction Group that she had recently taken over.
Wright Construction Group was nearly ruined by Samantha, a toxic employee within the company. Because of that, almost all of the core employees had to be replaced.
It seemed Gwendolyn would be kept busy every day for a while.
The sky outside the floor-to-ceiling window gradually darkened, and before Gwendolyn knew it, she had been busy until eight o’clock in the evening.
The office was very quiet except for the sound of her typing on the keyboard.
She closed her laptop and rubbed the back of her sore neck. Suddenly, she realized that more than an hour had passed. Why hadn’t I heard any sound from Maverick? What tricks is he playing?
She walked around the office desk to take a look. The man was lying on his side on the floor, and his long legs were slightly bent. His eyes were tightly closed, and his eyebrows furrowed together as if he was experiencing immense pain even in his sleep.
Gwendolyn was a bit skeptical and called out to him. “Maverick, stop pretending and get up quickly now.”
The man’s eyebrows furrowed even tighter, showing no response.
Gwendolyn felt weird. His state… It doesn’t seem quite right.
F
Although the man’s reaction to the injection was very strong at first, the pain only lasted for half an hour.

Unless Gwendolyn frowned, reaching out to remove Maverick’s suit jacket, and she accidentally brushed her hand against his waist.
The man let out a grunt in pain.
The frown on Gwendolyn’s face deepened even more. Is there an injury on his waist?
As Gwendolyn was about to continue removing his coat, a pair of big hands abruptly gripped her wrist.
Maverick had woken up.
Despite the throbbing pain in his head, which made him feel dizzy, his hands reacted subconsciously. “What are you doing?”
Gwendolyn withdrew her hand, but she did not answer his questions. She asked in an indifferent tone. “Are you hurt?”
“It’s already healed,” Maverick replied.
Both of their tones were very indifferent.
After that sentence, there was a long period of silence.
Gwendolyn was just casually asking that question and only showing concern for her little servant boy. If he doesn’t appreciate my concern, then let it be.
“Since you’re feeling fine and have enough rest, let’s get up and get going.” After Gwendolyn finished speaking, she picked up her bag without looking back and pushed the door open to leave.
“Where to?” Maverick asked.
Gwendolyn replied, “If you don’t keep up with me soon, you’ll have to go home barefoot later.”
