Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 194

Suddenly, that statement turned the atmosphere in the room to become quite suggestive.

Seeing Maverick standing there dumbfounded and not even moving his finger for quite a while, Gwendolyn furrowed her eyebrows slightly, and her expression became solemn. “Hurry up; I want to see the injury.”

Maverick’s enthusiasm deflated in an instant.

Oh, she just wants to see the injury; I have overthought it.

Wait a minute…

She wants to check my injury?

Why is she suddenly doubting my injury? Did Charles say something to her?

“My injury is fine. I’ve been applying medicine for the past couple of days, and it’s almost healed.”

Gwendolyn gave him a cold glance and said, “Take it off!”

Maverick did not move a muscle and replied, “I’m wearing a bandage, so even if I take it off, you won’t be able to see anything.”

“I can remove it. Worst case, we’ll just reapply the medicine later.”

Her tone was very firm.

She seems determined.

Maverick did not speak or move, pondering how to get away with the situation.

Gwendolyn saw right through his thoughts with just one glance.

“Don’t try to fool me tonight. You must take your clothes off!”

“Gwendolyn, I appreciate your concern for my injury, and it warms my heart. However, it’s getting late tonight, so let’s get some rest and check on it tomorrow.”

Gwendolyn gritted her teeth.

She suppressed the urge in her heart to tie the man up and strip him off forcibly.

Patiently, she stated, “You are the one who said earlier that you would unconditionally obey any command of mine. Was that just empty talk?”

Upon being confronted with the promise he made, Maverick was rendered speechless.

Being left with no choice, he stretched his hand toward the gold buttons on the suit. His slender fingertips gently circled around each button, unfastening them one by one in an extremely slow motion.

Gwendolyn did not rush him either. She gently rubbed between her brows and waited quietly. After all, there were not many pieces of clothes for him to take off, so it would not take long.

Maverick took off his suit, gently placing it on her dressing table.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he continued to take off his shirt.

After unbuttoning the two buttons of his shirt, he asked softly, “Should I… take off my pants?”

Gwendolyn gritted her teeth and said, “I want to see your wound! Why would you take off your pants?”

“Didn’t you just mention stripping… naked?” He lowered his head, only daring to voice his accusation softly.

However, because the room was so quiet, Gwendolyn could hear every single word clearly.

“Maverick! If you keep babbling on, I’ll make sure you don’t even have your underwear left. You’ll be running naked around the villa for fifty laps!”

Oh my goodness…

She is ruthless!

If I really run naked, my dignity and reputation will be gone at once!

Gwendolyn could see that he was clearly intimidated, so she continued with a wicked grin, “Or maybe I’ll have Elven and the others find a rope to tie you up and hang you from that tree outside the garden, naked as a specimen for the whole night. Which one would you like to try?”

I don’t want to try either one!

It’s absolutely impossible!

Maverick’s lips were pressed tightly together. His Adam’s apple bobbed slightly. He did not utter a single sound anymore as he silently undressed himself.

As he was just about to unfasten the last button, he was still unwilling to give up. When he tried to open his mouth to give an excuse, a fierce glare from Gwendolyn shot over as a warning.

Running naked out there is simply impossible!

It’s even more impossible to be hung up at the tree!

But I also don’t want to take off my clothes to show her the wound…

He lowered his gaze, still pondering a way to bluff his way through.

Under Gwendolyn’s gaze, he slowly removed his silk shirt, revealing his perfectly sculpted eight-pack abs. The bandage wrapped around his midsection slightly marred the aesthetic, but his healthy tanned complexion was still incredibly pleasing to the eye.

Nonetheless, Gwendolyn was not in the mood to admire it at that moment. As soon as Maverick finished undressing, she got up and walked toward him. “Turn around.”

Maverick obediently turned around.

Gwendolyn got straight to work, forcefully tearing off his bandages with brute strength.

As it was wrapped more than a dozen times, she had to carefully unwrap it layer by layer. Her movements were swift, and her strength was strong.

As the last few layers were unwrapped, the bloodstains on the bandages became clearly visible. Maverick let out a soft hiss.

After Gwendolyn heard that, her movements became much gentler.

After removing the bloodstained bandage, the palm-sized burn on his back was fully exposed to Gwendolyn’s eyes.

Gwendolyn’s brow furrowed deeply as she observed it intently.
