The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

Chapter 633 Kieran Is Beaten For Helping Inez

With the scowl on his face deepening. Cedrick pushed Kieran forward. “Take your fiancée away. She keeps clinging

on to my wife.”

Kieran let out a sigh as he resigned himself to prying Inez away nicely, “Listen to me, Inez. Let’s go back to our

room. Kiddo… has a husband now. She can’t sleep with you.”

Brows knitted, Inez held onto Gwendolyn for dear life. She refused to budge regardless of how hard she was pulled.

While Kieran was left at a loss, Cedrick suppressed his rage. The only reason he hadn’t laid a finger on her was

because she was his future sister-in-law.

Comforting Inez in her arms, Gwendolyn gave Cedrick and Kieran a helpless look. “Hubby, Kieran, why don’t you let

Inez sleep with me tonight? Can both of you accommodate her once by sharing the same

room?”

“No!”

Cedrick and Kieran exchanged glances before rejecting the suggestion outright.

The two of us? Sleeping together? That’s outrageous! Besides, this trip was supposed to help married couples bond

and not improve the relationship between brothers-in-law.

“I can only sleep with you and no one else. I’m sure you don’t want to see me going out the next day with heavy

eyebags and looking exhausted, do you, Gwenny?”

Kieran nodded in support. “I, too, will have a sleepless night.”

Not only would it be a torment for the two of them, but the idea itself was also enough to utterly embarrass them.

“But Inez is…” Gwendolyn was torn as she looked at Inez, who was curled up in her arms.

One could tell that the latter was drunk from the reddish tint on her cheeks.

Due to her exasperation from Kieran’s lack of sensitivity during the day, she drowned herself in alcohol.

Glaring at Kieran, Cedrick snapped, “Take your fiancée away right now. If you can’t do it, I’ll be forced to interfere.

I’m not someone who can be gentle with other women, so don’t blame me if I end up hurting her.”

Faced with Cedrick’s threats, Kieran naturally wouldn’t allow him to lay a finger on Inez.

“You don’t have to do anything. I’ll carry her back myself.”

Once again, Kieran stepped forward and attempted to separate Inez from Gwendolyn.

“Be good, Inez. You reek of alcohol now. Why don’t I take you back and wash up first? We can come and see

Gwendolyn after that, all right?”

Gwendolyn quickly helped his cause. That’s right. You can come back after taking a shower. We’ll bunk together and

chat all night.”

Only then did Inez release her grip and allow Kieran to take her away.

After giving Gwendolyn and Cedrick each a look, Kieran was on the brink of saying something but swallowed his

words in the end.

Thereafter, he carried Inez back to their hotel room.

“Remember to sleep with me after my shower, Gwendolyn.”

“I will, I will,” Gwendolyn agreed in a cursory manner.

Kieran quickly closed the door behind him, putting an end to the commotion.

Meanwhile, Cedrick was clearly upset over Inez’s attempt to steal his wife from him.

Gwendolyn stroked his face and pacified him with a smile, “There, there, Hubby. It’s getting late. Let’s head back to

shower and get some rest.”

Cedrick sulked as he followed her from behind. It wasn’t until they entered the room that he complained, “You’re

just too much, Gwenny. How can you even consider sleeping with Inez and forcing me to stay with Kieran?”

With an awkward expression, Gwendolyn tsk-tsked in response. “It was just an idea that I threw out in the open. I

wasn’t really serious about it.”

She then walked toward the bathroom, intending to shower and rid herself of the stench of alcohol.

No sooner had she taken two steps than she felt Cedrick grab her wrist. A powerful force subsequently pulled her

toward his muscular chest.

Briefly stunned, Gwendolyn could still feel her head spinning when Cedrick pinned her against the wall.

“Hubby?”

Cedrick lowered his head and brought the tip of his nose inches away from her. As his alcohol-filled breath bathed

across her face, Gwendolyn began to feel her cheeks burn.

“W-What are you doing? We’re no longer in the spring of our romance. Let’s hurry up and shower instead.”

Sensing the swelling lust within him, Gwendolyn attempted to squirrel out of his grip.

However, his hold on her remained as tight as ever.

Instead, he leaned into her ear and whispered in a raspy yet seductive voice, “You were naughty, Darling. Once

we’re done showering, I’m going to punish you for it.”

Cedrick’s palm slid down Gwendolyn’s body and began caressing her waist while the amalgamation of their breaths

filled the air with passion.

Gwendolyn submitted to his desire. “Since it’s our first day in Turlen, you can do whatever you want.”

With an alluring look in her eyes, she cocked a seductive brow. “How about that? Isn’t it generous of me not to

make things difficult for you?”

Cedrick swept her off her feet abruptly and headed into the bathroom. “You’re the best, Darling.”

from the shower.

Other than the endless flow of water, nothing else could be heard from the bathroom.

As he started to worry, he walked over and knocked on the door.

“Inca, are you done? Can I come in?”

Even though they had slept with each other, they had still yet to shower together. Their engagement was a recent

event, after all.

Knock Knock!

“Can you hear me, Inez?”

There was no response from the bathroom. All he could hear was the continuous flow of water.

As a sudden sense of dread crept into him, he opened the door abruptly and barged in to check.

He was greeted by the sight of Inez still in her dress. Sitting on top of the toilet bowl cover, she had sprawled across

the sink and fallen asleep.

Rendered speechless, Kieran walked over and stroke her face gently. He then called out to her, “Inex?”

He didn’t get a response, for she was too deep in her sleep.

Kieran had no choice but to take on the responsibility of helping her bathe.

After filling the tub and checking the water temperature. Kieran carefully lowered the undressed Inez into it.

Thereafter, he scrubbed her attentively without a single complaint.

Even though the water in the tub was at a pleasant temperature, it was inevitable for some to splash on Inez’s face.

Only then did she open her eyes groggily.

With the effects of alcohol still clouding her mind, she-through her blurry vision-could see a man wiping her chest,

seemingly molesting her in a brazen manner.

In her panic, she raised her hand and slapped it against Kieran’s head. “You pervert! What are your hands doing?

Get out!”

“Ouch!”

As Kieran rubbed his painful forehead, his fringe was dripping wet from the water that Inez had inadvertently

splashed on him.

“Inez, I’m not a pervert. It’s me, Kieran. Your fiancé.”

Inez seemed to have used up all her strength when she struck him. Her head subsequently nodded as she fell

woozily back into sleep.

The sight caused Kieran to shake his head with a smile. “You have always been a woman who puts up a strong

front. Once you learn of what you did when you got drunk tonight, I’m sure you’ll be so embarrassed that you just

want the ground to open up and swallow you whole. I was simply helping you wash up, yet I was beaten for my

efforts.”

Letting out a sigh, Kieran continued to scrub her in resignation. “Forget it. It was me who disappointed you first in

our relationship. I fully deserve the beating

Inez’s breathing was calm in her deep slumber. Her complexion was tinged with a faint pinkish hue from the effects

of the alcohol, a sight that was particularly alluring.

In response, Kieran had to desperately suppress his urges. He stopped himself from admiring her luscious figure as

he continued to scrub her down.

In order to keep himself distracted, he chose to mumble to himself. “I know I’m not sensitive in my speech, so I’ll try

to learn a thing or two from Cedrick on this trip. Whatever you want or other girls have, I’ll try my best to give them

all to you. So, can you stop being angry at me?”
