Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 160

Matthew’s expression darkened as he could tell he was being looked down upon.

“Who do you think you are? You don’t have a say in anything I do in the police station. Take her away!” He made a gesture, and all the police officers in the room swarmed over, seemingly determined to take Gwendolyn away immediately.

Maverick was furious.

A wicked yet deep male voice suddenly sounded from outside the door just as he was about to speak, stopping him before he even had a chance to start. “Mr. Scott, you’re speaking with such authority!”

Matthew and all the police officers shuddered at the sound of that. The former sprang to his feet and his body stiffened instantly.

Gwendolyn’s face darkened in mere seconds.

I was so close. Whoever this is, arrived on time.

Maverick silently sat back down after regaining his composure.

He knew who it was as soon as he heard that voice, and his handcuffed fists clenched even tighter subconsciously.

Gwendolyn had a thing for people with good looks. She employed the most handsome ones, even when it came to her bodyguards.

Maverick remembered that this man was exceptionally good-looking.

Will Gwendolyn…

His obsidian-like eyes darkened as he instinctively turned his head to look at Gwendolyn.

It turned out that Gwendolyn was not paying attention to his appearance. She appeared to be somewhat unhappy and had a slightly upset expression on her face as though something else was bothering her.

The door opened, and the man who entered was dressed in a solemn military uniform underneath a dark green and black fur military coat.

The man was burly and standing straight. He had delicate features and a sharp nose. With his slightly narrowed eyes, he exuded an intimidating aura.

His deep blue, gem-like pupils, which complemented his eyes, were his most stunning features and added a touch of charm to his looks. He appeared both righteous and wicked in his military uniform, making him even more attractive than a woman.

All the policemen, including Matthew, respectfully bowed their heads and greeted him with reverence as soon as he entered, “Greetings, Mr. Newton.”

He was the fourth son of the Newton family in Salinsburgh, Charles Newton.

Everyone who met him would address him formally. Charles held a very important position as the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency for Chanaea.

He was born when the head of the Newton family went abroad, and his mother was his father’s third wife. His mother was a woman of Epean and Alendor nationality, so he inherited a striking pair of deep blue eyes that were a beautiful blend of Chanaean and Epean bloodlines, making him exceptionally handsome.

Matthew greeted him nervously as his mind was filled with confusion, and he was unable to fathom the situation.

I’ve just received a mandated order from my superiors, so how did this man show up so quickly?

Only Asher and the mysterious head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation would likely have more power in this field than Charles in the entire Chanaea.

However, no one had ever seen the true face of that mysterious man, and even his real identity and background remained a mystery. It was said that he left on a mission many years ago, and there hadn’t been any word about him since.

Matthew gathered his thoughts and put on a pleasing expression before bowing slightly in his direction. “What brings you to our humble town of Fairlake, Mr. Newton? You should have let your subordinates inform us, so we at the Fairlake Police Station could have been better prepared. Please, take a seat.”

Charles completely ignored him.

The interrogation room’s heater was on, and it was warmer inside. Charles took off his coat and handed it to his subordinate. Then, he walked toward Gwendolyn with steady footsteps.

It was only then did Gwendolyn noticed him.

That wickedly handsome face gradually overlapped with the memories of her childhood.

Her beautiful eyes widened slightly, and she had mixed feelings as she called out softly, “Charles?”

Charles responded with a smile, and his eyes were like a deep, brilliant blue ocean filled with stars.

Shirley and Samantha looked utterly bewildered.

Maverick was dumbfounded.
