Chapter 321
Wooing My Ex-Wife
Chapter 321 Gwendolyn Was Never A Saint Gwendolyn was texting Elven because she wanted Shadow Bell to search for any woman named Kylie in Epea and Alendor who matched the description of Charlesâ mother.
Suddenly, she heard Trissâ exclamation and looked up, only to collide with someone familiar.
âSherman?â It had only been five or six days since they last met, but he seemed to have changed a lot.
The confidence in his eyes was diminished and replaced by diffidence.
Gwendolyn was surprised to see him wearing a waiterâs uniform.
âHave you been working here recently?â Sherman froze, his face full of shame.
He didnât answer Gwendolynâs question and turned to leave.
Gwendolyn called out, âWe have been friends for so many years after all.
have a drink with me, Mr. Ferguson?â Would you like to sit down and Triss could still vividly remember what the Ferguson family had done to Gwendolyn previously.
âThe Ferguson family is no longer considered a prominent family, Gwendolyn.
He doesnât live up to that title anymore.
Besides, he stopped being my friend the moment he tried to hurt you on behalf of Eloise.
â Sherman was originally standing at the door, but he turned to look at Gwendolyn instantly upon hearing Triss.
âI didnât help Eloise hurt you.
Furthermore, sheâs now locked up in the womenâs prison.
Donât you plan to let her off?â Angered by Shermanâs words, Jasmine and Triss would have had an outburst if Gwendolyn hadnât held them back.
Gwendolyn chuckled.
âI wasnât planning on meddling with her affairs after I sent her to prison.
Now that you mention this, I think sheâs having a rather easy time in there.
â Astonished, Sherman said, âI never thought you can be so cruel, Gwendolyn.
She is just an ignorant girl, and she has already received the punishment she deserves.
â Gwendolyn took a sip of juice and looked at him indifferently.
She did not respond to his words.
âWhy donât you mention how malicious your sister is? She is already an adult, but you still claim that she is just ignorant.
She is just a spoiled brat raised by your family!â Triss defended Gwendolyn angrily.
âThatâs right!â Jasmine chimed in angrily.
âYou know what you and she have done during Eloiseâs birthday party.
Gwendolyn was hardly harsh enough on her!â Sherman felt utterly desperate.
It had been a living hell for the Ferguson family.
They didnât even have the money to bribe the prison warden for a visit, Shermanâs mother, Emma, cried every day at the thought of Eloise suffering in prison, while his father overcame his pride to search for jobs despite his old age.
However, none of the companies dared to hire him because Cedrick pressured them not to, Their whole family now lived in a house of several square meters, and could barely make ends meet.
1/4 69% Chapter 321 Gwendolyn Was Never A Saint No matter how malicious were Eloiseâs sins, shouldnât this be sufficient to pay for them? +15 Bonus Sherman gripped the tray with his hands tightly to suppress his emotions.
Then, lowering his stance, he pleaded, âGwendolyn, if you still consider us friends after all these years, please spare Eloise and release her on bail.
Our family will take her to the countryside, and I promise we will never disturb you again.
â Gwendolyn remained expressionless as she replied, âSince we are friends, I will pretend that I didnât see you today so that you can continue working here in peace.
Eloise got what she deserves.
I am never a saint, and I wonât help her even if I can.
â Triss immediately chased him away.
âDid you hear that clearly? Get out and ask your manager to send another waiter over.
â Head hung low, Sherman concealed the unwillingness and resentment in his eyes and left the private room.
As Sherman walked through the restaurant corridor with heavy steps like a walking corpse, he heard Frank, a waiter who was temporarily assigned to the private room complaining under his breath as he walked past him.
âTruly a son from a wealthy family.
He canât do anything right.
He must have offended the customers again, and now I have to sacrifice my free time.
â Sherman heard his words clearly and glanced back at him.
Frank became even more annoyed.
âWhy are you staring at me? I didnât say anything wrongâ¦â As the sound of insults grew fainter, Shermanâs face filled with despair.
With Cedrick making things difficult for him as well as everyone humiliating and mocking him recently, Sherman felt he was thrown with rather unfair treatment.
The words Eloise said to him before she went to prison reverberated in his ears.
âSherman! I donât want to spend my life in prison.
Once Iâm inside, the other prisoners will target me and bully me! Iâll live in misery forever!â âThe reason the Ferguson family landed in this state is because of Gwendolyn and Cedrick! You have to help me kill them! Otherwise, I will no longer acknowledge you as my brother, and Mom and Dad will never be happy!â Besides, Evelyn came to find him just two days ago⦠At the thought of it, he headed to the kitchen.
After making sure that no one was paying attention to him, he discreetly took a packet of rat poison which was used to kill rodents from the storeroom and stashed it in his pocket.
Frank was about to enter the private room to serve juices when Sherman intercepted him.
Forcing an apologetic smile, Sherman said, âLet me serve the drinks.
I feel terrible for upsetting the ladies in the room just now.
I want to apologize and make up for it.
â âApologize to them? Youâve got to be kidding me.
Youâll just mess things up again, and Iâll have to clean up the mess.
â Sherman held onto the tray of juice in Frankâs hands tightly as he continued, âI feel bad for dragging you 2/4 wed, Chapter 321 Gwendolyn Was Never A Saint 69% +15 Bonus into this and resulting in you having to help me serve the customers in the private room.
Iâll pay you my salary for today as compensation.
â Frank was delighted to hear that.
âAt least youâre sensible.
Go ahead then.
â Sherman took the tray.
Glancing around anxiously, he then retrieved the rat poison before entering the private room.
Shermanâs hands were trembling uncontrollably because it was the first time he had ever attempted to do something so malicious.
.
However, at the thought of Evelynâs promise, he mustered the courage to carry out the plan.
After making sure that there was nobody else around, he turned his back to the surveillance camera and tore open the packaging.
Then, he watched quietly as the white powder dissolved into the juices.
However, before he could finish pouring the poison into the juices, someone grabbed his wrist.
Panicked, he looked up and saw Nico.
âWhat did you put?â Nico asked solemnly.
Several meters away from them was Cedrick, who was approaching with a grim expression.
Upon sensing the murderous aura exuding from him, Sherman panicked and his fear of Cedrick was evident on his face.
Recently, every time he bumped into Cedrick, he would end up getting brutally beaten! In the heat of the moment, Sherman flipped the tray and splashed the juice onto Nicoâs face.
Nicoâs face was instantly covered in juice.
While he was distracted, Sherman struggled with all his might to break free and ran away.
âGo after him.
If a weak and feeble man like him escapes from you, I will hold you accountable for it along with your other faults,â Cedrick ordered calmly.
âDonât worry, Boss!â Nico shuddered.
Then, he quickly chased after Sherman.
In the private room, the ladies were enjoying their meal and chatting happily when the door was suddenly opened.
Triss, who was sitting closest to the door, thought it was a waiter and didnât even bother to look up.
âYouâre finally here.
Can you help me grill this beef?â The man behind her remained motionless as he spoke coldly.
âHelping you to grill the beef? Forget about it.
Iâm here to see my fiancée!â Upon hearing the voice, they all turned their heads simultaneously.
Triss was so taken aback that she forgot her words.
Puzzled, Gwendolyn asked, âWhy are you here? Have you come to join us for a meal after smelling the aroma of grilled meat?â Cedrick felt disgruntled and replied in a sour tone, âYou have all eaten, havenât you? Why arenât you concerned if Iâm hungry?â O à® 3/4 12:12 Wed, Jun Chapter 321 Gwendolyn Was Never A Saint 69% +15 Bonus When he didnât see her upon returning home from work and after waiting for a long while, he felt angry.
Filled with anger, he stepped forward and scooped Gwendolyn up domineeringly without further explanation.
Then, he turned to leave with her in his arMs. âLetâs go home! Iâll personally make grill meat for you!â O 4/4
