The Ex and Her Riches Chapter 262

Dark Path

A pair of dark eyes stared back at her.

“Y–You… It’s you…”

Gwendolyn’s red–lacquered lips lifted into a sneer. “Lisa, I didn’t expect you to fall so far!”

She twisted Lisa’s wrist with a snap.

“Ouch! My wrist!”

Lisa’s face contorted in pain. The dagger in her hand clattered to the ground.

Gwendolyn raised her high–heeled foot and kicked her hard across her thigh.

Lisa fell to the ground. She scrambled around but could not muster the strength to stand up again.

The assistant, manager, and staff watching the scene were all frightened.

“Why are you still standing there like an idiot? Go and help Jennifer wash up!” Gwendolyn growled.

“Yes, yes, yes!”

The assistant quickly grabbed a dry towel, wrapped it around Jennifer’s body, and led her to the
bathroom.

Lisa was dissatisfied to see that her plan had failed.

She had used the last of her savings to get Jennifer’s schedule for her Barner shoot.



“Why did you have to save her? I was ridiculed by the entire network! I had to leave Papilio Girls! I owe
millions of dollars! All of this is because of her! Damn her!” Lisa screamed hysterically at Gwendolyn.

Gwendolyn snorted, still sneering.

“I am the one who leaked your nude photo and issued the order to remove you from Papilio Girls. I am
the one who did this to you. Well, I’m standing in front of you right now. Come and kill me if you dare.”

Lisa was shocked to hear those words. She stared wordlessly at Gwendolyn for a long while. Finally,
she gritted her teeth against the pain, staggered over to Gwendolyn, and reached down to pick up the
dagger on the floor.

“I’m going to kill you! I’ll kill you!”

Her fingers were wrapped around the hilt of the dagger but she could not lift it. Gwendolyn’s high–
heeled foot was stepping down hard on the blade.

“Lisa, you’ve fallen from grace today due to your own doing. If you had concentrated all your energy on
being the best idol, you would have reached stardom.”

Lisa’s eyes welled up with tears that pooled and then rolled down her cheeks in twin streams.
Gwendolyn went on, “You had a bright future, yet you chose this dark path. You bullied Jennifer. You
knew that Jennifer and Walter were in a relationship and yet you seduced him and started an affair with
him. Do you think Walter would help you if something were to happen to you? That man can’t even

protect himself. How can he take care of you? The two of you miserable b*stards have the same evil
heart!”

“No! No! This is all Jennifer’s fault! We are all part of a group! Why does she get the chance to go solo?
Why does she get interviews by herself? This is not fair!” Lisa screamed in a heart–wrenching voice



and collapsed to the ground, clutching her chest.

Gwendolyn’s face remained emotionless. “Jennifer is an S–level artist. She is the ace of Angle. The
contract that the two of you signed is completely different. From the very beginning, her path and yours
were never the same. You failed to position yourself well!”

Lisa sat on the ground. Her face fell in despair. She was stunned and kept repeating the same words.
“No, it’s not my fault…”

Gwendolyn pulled her icy eyes away from Lisa and glanced around the room. “You all witnessed it. She
brought a knife not just to kill Jennifer, but also to kill me! Somebody please call the police and get
them to take her away quickly. Let’s not ruin the atmosphere here.”

“I’ll call the police!” said one of the staff immediately.

Lisa was stunned. Then, realization dawned on her.

Gwendolyn had tricked her.

If she only attempted to kill Jennifer, she would be jailed for four to five years at most. However, if she
was charged with an attempt to kill Gwendolyn, her life would become miserable.

Asher was Gwendolyn’s older brother, and Cedrick was Gwendolyn’s fiancé.

If she were found guilty of such a crime, those two men would not let her get away with it.

“Ms. Harris, I was wrong! I know now that I was wrong! Please give me a chance to make it right.
Please don’t send me to prison! Please!”

She crawled toward Gwendolyn’s feet, begging pathetically. She reached out to grab the hem of
Gwendolyn’s skirt, but Gwendolyn stepped out of her reach.



Gwendolyn looked down at her contemptuously. Her eyes were cold and emotionless.

Jennifer had already washed up and changed into a clean dress. She walked out of the bathroom with
a towel wrapped around her hair.

When Gwendolyn saw that Jennifer was okay, she breathed a sigh of relief and said to Lisa, “You
shouldn’t be apologizing to me. You should be apologizing to Jennifer. If she forgives you, I’ll consider
letting you go.”

Hope lit up in Lisa’s heart as she knelt down in front of Jennifer to beg for her forgiveness.

“Jennifer, I was wrong! I shouldn’t have treated you so badly! I shouldn’t have destroyed your
relationship with Wafter! You can punish me however you wish, but please don’t let Ms. Harris send me
to prison!

Please!”

Jennifer clenched her fists tightly.

The memory of her catching Walter and Lisa in bed together flashed before her eyes. How arrogant
they were back then! After doing such an unforgivable thing, how dare she begs for a second chance?

She looked down at Lisa’s pathetic appearance silently. Her face was red and splotchy from crying.
She kept quiet for a long while.

“Jennifer, if I hadn’t stopped her, she would have killed you. Do you really believe that she will change
her ways? Are you really willing to forgive her?” Gwendolyn said when she saw Jennifer’s hesitation.

Jennifer’s misgivings faded away. “No, I can never forgive her! Lisa, you’re not a child anymore! You
should’ve thought about the consequences before you acted! Now, you must be responsible for what
you’ve done!”



“No. No, Jennifer! Please, help me!” Lisa cried out desperately.

She did not want to go to prison for what she had done.

If she did, she would definitely be tortured to death in there.

Jennifer’s heart did not soften. She merely watched silently as Lisa was dragged away.

Gwendolyn approached her and smiled in satisfaction. “You have grown a lot after going through so
much hardship. That’s a good thing!”

Jennifer reached out to hold Gwendolyn’s hand, touched by her kindness.

Although this episode had delayed the shooting schedule, Jennifer quickly recovered from the shock
and continued with the shoot.

That evening, when Gwendolyn returned to the villa, Cedrick was already at home.

He was seated on the couch, watching television. His slender legs were casually crossed, and his
entire demeanor exuded relaxation.

Gwendolyn was surprised to see him at home. “You got off work so early today? Isn’t it busy at Jenson
Group?”

“I got home early.” He had a reason for being home early. “Gwenny, I have an urgent mission from the
Federal Bureau of Investigation tomorrow night. I have to go to the border.”

“Tomorrow night?” Gwendolyn sat down beside him. “So soon? When will you be back?”

“I’ll have to be there for at least three to five days.”



Gwendolyn lowered her eyes. “Okay. I actually made a hospital appointment for the day after tomorrow.
I thought of going with you.”

Cedrick pulled her into his arms and looked her over. “You look fine. Why are you going to the hospital?
Is everything okay?”

“I’m fine.”

Gwendolyn smiled awkwardly as she recalled Valentino’s words earlier that day.

“I met Old Mr. Jenson today. He really wanted… to have a grandchild. To be honest, I’m also starting to
feel worried. We’ve been together for a while. Why haven’t I conceived yet?”

Cedrick followed her eyes and gazed at her stomach. His eyes betrayed nothing, and he was quiet for
awhile.

We have made love countless times, and yet your womb remains empty. It’s because of me.
Something is wrong with my body…
