Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 392

Filled with rage, Joaquin stomped toward Pablo and punched the latter with all his might.

Groaning in pain, Pablo collapsed to the ground.

“You little sh*t! I treated you well! Two years ago, when that brat from the Jameson family kissed your ex-girlfriend, I was the one who helped you take revenge! I was beaten by my grandfather after that incident and got so badly injured that I was practically bedridden for three whole days, yet I never blamed you! How dare you try to destroy my career and life! What did I do to you to deserve that?”

Growing increasingly incensed, Joaquin lifted Pablo by the collar and punched the latter twice.

The corner of Pablo’s lips soon bled as his face swelled.

Cedrick and Gwendolyn stood aside and watched wordlessly.

It wasn’t until Pablo was on the verge of passing out that Cedrick shouted, “That’s enough! Nico, pull Mr. Zipper away.”

Without delay, Nico stepped forward and dragged Joaquin back by force.

Joaquin was still infuriated, so he viciously kicked Pablo’s waist two more times.

Moaning in pain, Pablo winced and breathed laboriously.

Probably because he felt guilty, he didn’t say a word nor retaliate despite being beaten up badly.

Gwendolyn wordlessly observed him and the look on his face for a moment. “I can tell you feel guilty about what you did to Joaquin, Pablo. I think you’re not the mastermind behind this incident. Someone directed you to do this. Am I right?”

Lowering his head, Pablo remained quiet.

Cedrick glared at Pablo coldly and added, “I asked people to check your bank account statement. You deposited thirty million in the bank yesterday, and you deposited another fifty million today. However, you haven’t been working for the past six months, and your family didn’t provide you with any allowance. Do you think I won’t suspect where you got the money from?”

Pablo still kept his mouth shut.

Hence, Cedrick turned to look at the wall on the right, gesturing for Pablo to look at the interrogation tools hung on it. “This is a secret interrogation room the Federal Bureau of Investigation uses to question felons. Even the best-trained spies and secret agents can’t endure the torture induced by those tools. Meanwhile, you’re just the pampered son of an affluent family. How long do you think you can hold on, hmm?”

Pablo was so terrified that he paled and shuddered even harder.

Gritting his teeth, Joaquin barked, “I think he should experience what all these tools have to offer! Letting an ingrate like him live is a waste of Earth’s resources!”

After Cedrick and Joaquin played their roles as the bad cops, it was Gwendolyn’s turn to play the good cop.

With a kind expression, she spoke tenderly. “This isn’t a small matter, Pablo. Joaquin’s life will be ruined if the matter isn’t resolved well. He’ll be forever branded as a lascivious star. You know what kind of person he is. He’ll do anything he can to help his friends and families. He even aided you multiple times in the past. That’s why he’s very hurt by your betrayal.”

Pablo lowered his line of sight and dared not look at Joaquin.

He was overwhelmed with guilt for hours after he posted those pictures online and saw that they went viral.
