Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 219

Hector and his family all panicked.

“I am your younger brother, Marcus. I have obeyed the rules for decades, and this is the only time I have made a mistake. You can’t be so ruthless and evict my whole family!”

Hector and his family knelt before Marcus and begged for mercy tearfully.

Torn between his brother and his daughter, Marcus’ expression turned grim as he looked at Gwendolyn.

“How shall I punish them, Honey?”

“Do whatever needs to be done according to the rules,” Gwendolyn replied without hesitation.

Nina stood up abruptly and glared at Gwendolyn furiously. “Gwendolyn! How can you be so ruthless? Aren’t you standing unscathed here? Why are you so cold-blooded toward your family?” she yelled.

Gwendolyn’s expression became cold instantly.

The reason she was unscathed now was that there was a man who suffered on her behalf.

They deserve to die for hurting him!

When Gwendolyn looked at Nina, her gaze turned icy. “If I were the one caught harming a family member, would you have let me off?”

Nina and Luke paused. After a brief glance at each other, they replied simultaneously, “Of course!”

“You are the youngest daughter of the Harris family. How can we possibly bear to hurt you?” Nina added.

“If that’s the case, you wouldn’t have made such a big fuss about the injuries on Uncle Hector’s face today. Don’t you feel disgusted by yourself when said that?”

Gwendolyn had no interest in staying any longer. Glancing at Marcus cautiously, she said coldly, “I’ll let Dad handle this. I have no objections to what he decides in the end.”

Gwendolyn left the ancestral hall of the Harris residence while pleas of mercy continued to echo behind her.

She returned to the room that she just tidied, but she couldn’t calm herself down even after a long time.

She could still recall the vivid image of Maverick’s burnt back drenched in blood.

Gwendolyn hated that the culprits were her family members. Since she couldn’t kill them, she would make sure that they suffer as a form of penance!

Following a long sigh, she thought of what happened earlier today at the Jenson residence. At the thought of herself lying to Cedrick and shifting much of the blame onto Maverick, she quickly clasped her hands and repented sincerely.

“Mavy, please don’t hate me for putting the blame on you today. I only said those words to disgust Cedrick and force him to call off the engagement.”

“As soon as I expose every Harris who harmed me, I will return to Fairlake and live a life of celibacy for you. Okay?”

When she finished her repentance, the housekeeper had come to get her twice.

Gwendolyn took her time to get down the stairs. Upon reaching the dining room, she took her seat with an icy expression.

She was about to taste the soup with a spoon when Lorelai, who was sitting opposite her, frowned at her in displease.

“Oh, you’re indeed our family’s most indulged little princess, making your elders wait for you to start dining. Have you forgotten all your manners in the past few years?”

Marcus coughed. “Stop it.”

Lorelai scoffed and rolled her eyes in response.

Gwendolyn had enough. With a loud clatter, she threw the spoon back.

“Have you forgotten how you married my dad by crawling into his bed, Lorelai? Who are you to lecture me about manners?”

“That’s enough! Both of you, keep quiet! Just eat!” Marcus was stressed out.

Gwendolyn turned to Marcus. “You heard it just now. She provoked me first when all I did was come down and eat peacefully. If you can’t shut her filthy mouth, I’m afraid I can’t stay here any longer.”

Gwendolyn got up and was about to go upstairs when Marcus softened his tone. “Don’t be mad, Honey! Can you finish your food first? I promise I’ll settle everything as soon as I can. Please don’t think of moving out.”

Marcus’ words made Gwendolyn feel a little hesitant.

However, Lorelai glared at Marcus resentfully as she yelled, “I’m speechless! You spoiled Gwendolyn! The audacity of her to humiliate me with my past! Shouldn’t I feel aggrieved?”

Gwendolyn couldn’t stand Lorelai’s hypocritical behavior.

However, she shouldn’t be the one to leave.

After calling Elven and a few other bodyguards to the dining room, Gwendolyn glanced at Lorelai opposite her as she said, “Mrs. Harris is feeling aggrieved. I suppose she no longer has the appetite to eat. Do her a favor and send her upstairs to rest.”

“How dare you, Gwendolyn!” Lorelai slammed a fist on the table.

“Why not?”
