The Ex and Her Riches Chapter 111

After a few seconds of silence, Gwendolyn finally said, “Alright, I understand.”

I thought Samantha kicked that cunning old fox Dexter out of town. How did he come back so quickly?
Gwendolyn thought and subconsciously glanced at Maverick, who was still wiping the floor.

With broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and wearing a white shirt and black pants, Maverick looked
oddly at peace.

His quick adaptation from being Fairlake’s leading CEO to a servant boy made Gwendolyn wonder if he
had gone through similar experiences before or been subjected to inhuman treatment in the past.

Despite the fact that he was being humiliated, he still exuded an air of nobility, as if it were ingrained in
his bones.

Gwendolyn noticed that because of his tall stature, he had to crouch and kneel to wipe the floor. He
seemed to be sweating again after only a short while, and there was a faint bite mark on his thin lips.

It looks like this pose isn’t just making him feel tired. He seems to be in pain around the waist
Gwendolyn mumbled inwardly.

“Stop cleaning for now. You can continue later when we come back. Come with me to the company.”
Gwendolyn walked up and said in a flat tone.

When she turned her head, she caught sight of Maverick sighing a breath of relief, as if he was
liberated. When he stood up, he placed a hand on his back to support his lower right back and quietly
rubbed his knee.



Gwendolyn said nothing and withdrew her gaze gently, before taking the lead to walk out of the door.
Maverick followed her silently and got into the car. Soon, they arrived at Wright Construction Group.

The door was left slightly ajar, as they approached the CEO’s office, and Dexter’s furious voice could
be heard through the gap.

“Call and find out where she is. Get her to come over here to see me! The Wright family isn’t extinct
yet. Since when a divorced woman like her can get to run the show?” Dexter shouted angrily.

Gwendolyn stood at the door and listened for a moment, before turning to Maverick and asked, “Do you
know what to do when we go in?”

Maverick nodded and answered, “Tell the truth.”

Gwendolyn was content with the response and retracted her gaze. She pushed the door open, stepped
inside, and gazed at the person sitting on the visitor’s sofa.

“Mr. Wright, it is been a long time since we last spoke, and it seems like your explosive temper has not
waned at all. I can see why Old Mr. Wright did not feel comfortable entrusting Wright Construction
Group to you,” Gwendolyn said with a hint of sarcasm.

With her words, Gwendolyn had delivered a direct hit that put salt in Dexter’s wounds. He had long felt
indignant about not being valued by Declan, so his expression instantly darkened with fury at her
words.

“Have you no respect for your elders?” Dexter asked angrily.

“Well, polite and courteous elders certainly deserve respect, but are you one of them?” Gwendolyn sat

calmly on the sofa across from him. Her face remained expressionless with the exception of the sneer
playing on her lips.

“How dare you?” Dexter snapped at her, his lips trembling with anger.

Though the two were seated, Gwendolyn’s casual demeanor left Dexter feeling inferior.

Dexter was about to continue lecturing her when he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure standing next
to her out of the corner of his eye.

Upon closer examination, he realized it was Maverick, who had been missing for quite some time.

“When did you return, Maverick? Since you are back, why did you allow this woman to take over Wright
Construction Group?” Dexter queried.

“Uncle Dexter, I only came back yesterday afternoon, and everything was already settled by then,”
Maverick stated plainly with any emotion.

“Stop with this it is all settled’ nonsense!” Dexter spat out in anger.

“You hold forty percent of the shares that your grandfather gave you, and you have been rumming
Wright Construction Group for years. You have considerable power among the shareholders. How
could you allow this woman to take away the position of the company’s leader?” Dexter’s frustration
boiled over as he slammed his hand on the coffee table and shouted.

“Uncle Dexter, all the other small shares of the company have been purchased by her, except for your
fifteen percent, so she’s now the biggest shareholder of Wright Construction Group,” Maverick
explained.



“What?” Dexter asked as he was confused.

Dexter could not help but notice the difference between Maverick’s explanation and the story
Samantha had told him.

Yulia, who was standing next to him, astutely placed the company’s share register on the coffee table.
After examining it closely, Dexter’s expression darkened.

He was not in Fairlake yesterday, so it would make sense for Gwendolyn to take charge if Maverick
was not around. However, he had been coveting the position of the top executive for so many years
that he refused to let an outsider take over so easily.

He shifted his gaze back to Maverick who stood there and said, “What are you standing there for?
Come and sit down. You are the second largest shareholder of the company, after all.”

Gwendolyn also glanced at Maverick.

Maverick kept his lips tightly shut without saying anything and lowered his head like a once prideful lion
that had its claws removed.

“I speak for him as he is my housekeeper now. He only gets to stand since his master is talking to a
guest.” Gwendolyn was rather satisfied with Maverick’s obedience and turned to Dexter with a smile.

Dexter could not believe what he heard and gaped. His eyes shifted back and forth between the two as
he tried to process what Gwendolyn had just said.

As soon as he realized the situation, he was incensed. “You stupid fool! Did you sign a contract to sell
yourself? Acting all meek and obedient in front of a woman, with your head bowed and agreeing to

everything, you’ve brought dishonor upon the Wright family!” Dexter exclaimed in anger.

Dexter was a man of traditional values, and on top of that, Maverick was the only child the Wright
family had raised with such high hopes.

Despite his initial reluctance to let Maverick take over as the head of Wright Construction Group.
Dexter eventually relented, knowing that Maverick had the ability to lead the company to great success.
Indeed, under Maverick’s leadership, the company had reached new heights, which had enabled
Dexter to live quite comfortably off of his share dividends. However, Maverick had ended up being
wrapped around at woman’s fingers.

“Today, I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your grandfather and my brother!” Dexter shouted angrily
as he rushed forward and slapped Maverick hard across his face.

Maverick remained motionless and did not move an eyebrow as Dexter charged towards him.

There was a crisp sound of a “snap”.

Maverick emitted a muffled grunt as his left cheek became visibly swollen, with blood starting to trickle
from the corners of his mouth.

The strength of the slap overwhelmed his weakened physical condition, and he instantly lost balance.

Gwendolyn quickly caught him as he fell.

However, Dexter was not done venting his anger yet. He lifted his palm again, ready to deliver another
slap.



“This is not the Wright family’s meeting room, nor is it your company. If you want to hit someone, go
back and do it there. Don’t try to act tough in front of me.” Gwendolyn grabbed his hand and pushed
him back hard.

The bodyguards at the side intervened swiftly and forced Dexter back onto the couch.

Maverick regained his balance and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with a calm
expression. He did not even flinch when Dexter rushed up to him. His deep black gaze was unreadable
as though he was planning something.

Gwendolyn was a little angry when she saw Maverick’s pitiful state.

“In case you did not know, the Wright residence is no longer the exclusive property of the Wright family.
The traditional and rigid rules in the meeting room should be done away with!” Gwendolyn cast a
venomous glare at Dexter and jeered.

“Did this woman take over the Wright residence as well?” Dexter asked.

Dexter felt frustrated and exasperated. Then, he thought of Frida, and looked at Maverick’s indifferent
expression, before pointing and cursing at him.

“Do you realize that you are abetting the wicked? I left Fairlake a few days ago because I found
evidence that suggests this woman is involved in your grandfather’s death!” Dexter said.

Upon hearing that, Maverick finally lifted his gaze and focused on Dexter.

“This woman was responsible for my father’s death! And now she is scheming to take over the Wright
family’s business. She is a cunning and vicious woman! We cannot let such a woman stay!” Dexter
gnashed

his teeth as he spoke.

He gave Maverick a pointed look.

“Do not be indecisive, or you will pay the price. Maverick, you must make up your mind soon, Dexter
warned.
