The Ex and Her Riches Chapter 388

Invite them in,” Gwendolyn uttered calmly.

Two men dressed as bodyguards walked in and bowed at Gwendolyn respectfully. “Ms. Harris, Old Mr.
Zipper sent us here. He wishes to terminate the contract between Mr. Zipper and Angle Corporation.
We were also instructed to bring Mr. Zipper back with us.”

Gwendolyn kept mum for a while. Old Mr. Zipper is doing this to minimize my losses because he’s
afraid that Joaquin might drag me down.

“I’m not terminating the contract. Please tell Old Mr. Zipper I’ll stand by Joaquin’s side no matter what
happens!” she eventually replied.

The bodyguards exchanged glances.

They were merely there to relay a message, so neither of them could make a decision. Hence, they
said, “In that case, please hand Mr. Zipper over to us. We need to bring him back to Fairlake.”

Gwendolyn knew Patrick would surely punish Joaquin. Regardless of whether Joaquin is responsible
for what’s happening, the scandal is all over the internet, so the Zipper family’s business must’ve taken
a hit as well. It’s obvious that Old Mr. Zipper is enraged. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sent his men here
for Joaquin. If Joaquin ends up in their hands, he’ll be punished severely.

The bodyguards were waiting for Gwendolyn’s response. “Ms. Harris?” one of them voiced.

The bodyguard’s voice brought Gwendolyn back to her senses. With a serious expression, she
answered, “We lost contact with Joaquin, and we’re still trying to locate him. Please tell Old Mr. Zipper
that if I locate Joaquin, I’ll help him discipline Joaquin before sending him back to Fairlake so that Old
Mr. Zipper can do the same.”



The bodyguards exchanged glances once again. “We haven’t been able to find Mr. Zipper, either. In
fact, we couldn’t even reach his phone. Hence, we thought he was hiding here.”

“He’s not here. I only learned about the scandal minutes ago,” she uttered in response.

“All right, then. We’ll leave you to it.”

Gwendolyn nodded and told Joanne to see the bodyguards off.

The moment the bodyguards left, Gwendolyn’s phone rang.

Gwendolyn smiled and shook her head helplessly. What’s going on today? Why is everything
happening at once? I can’t even take a breather.

She then picked up her phone and saw that it was a call from Cedrick.

“I saw the trending topic on the internet and the statement Angle Corporation had published,” Cedrick
said in a stern tone the second the call connected.

“So? Are you also asking me to give up on Joaquin?” Gwendolyn questioned.

Cedrick went silent for a few seconds before responding, “I’ve already gotten Swain to locate Joaquin.
Would you like to see him, Gwenny?”

Gwendolyn was slightly stunned because she didn’t expect Cedrick to beat her to it. I was just about to
get someone to locate Joaquin!

Before Gwendolyn could answer him, Cedrick added, “If you’re interested, Gwenny, come downstairs.
I’m already in Angle Corporation’s underground parking lot.”

Dumbfounded, Gwendolyn asked, “What? Are you already here? You’re quick!”



Cedrick said in a hoarse and alluring voice, “The second rule in the family rule says that men must
always prioritize their wives. I must show my effort, no?”

Gwendolyn was pleased, so she teased, “You’re becoming more obedient, aren’t you, Ceddy? Does
that mean we no longer need to keep the ruler and the rod in the house?”

“Sure! In that case, I’ll get rid of the plank and the Lego pieces tomorrow!”

“No,” Gwendolyn uttered unhesitatingly. She thought those tools could come in handy in the future. “I
need to keep my belongings. I’ll be there soon.”

A couple of minutes later, Gwendolyn took the elevator downstairs and saw the familiar car in the
parking lot from afar. Besides, she also saw a handsome figure leaning against the car door.

Upon seeing Gwendolyn approaching, Cedrick opened the passenger door for her and fastened her
seatbelt for her after she entered the car.

When his face was right in front of Gwendolyn, she took the opportunity to give him a peck on the lips.

Cedrick froze momentarily and quickly fastened her seatbelt. He then pinched her chin and deepened
the kiss.

After they kissed, Gwendolyn wiped the lipstick stain off of his lips and said, “I have to touch up my
makeup because you ate my lipstick!”

“That’s not necessary. You look perfect.” Cedrick caressed her cheek and straightened his body before
returning to the driver’s seat.

When they were in the car, Gwendolyn asked, “You got here soon after I learned about the news.
When did you start locating Joaquin?”



While driving, Cedrick replied in a serious manner, “One hour ago. When it was first published on the
internet.”

“Did you start locating him right away? How did you know I wasn’t going to give up on him to minimize
my losses?”

“I know you.” Cedrick flashed a faint smile. Gwendolyn hates as strongly as she loves. She’ll take
revenge on the people who wronged her and return the same kind of pain a hundred times over. When
it comes to those she loves, she’ll do everything in her power to protect them.

…

Shortly after, Cedrick and Gwendolyn arrived at Quinary Bar.

Gwendolyn was ready to storm into the place, but as soon as she stepped in, the pungent smell of
alcohol, cigarettes, and perfumes hit her nose. As a result, she hurried toward a corner and started to
puke.

Cedrick rubbed her back and called Nico.

“Reserved the entire Quinary Bar. Empty the place except for private room 3805. Also, instruct the staff
to clean up the place within fifteen minutes. I don’t want even a hint of this disgusting smell lingering
around after they’re done,” Cedrick ordered.

Gwendolyn was gradually getting over the nauseousness, so she shook her head at him and said,
“Forget about it. That’s troublesome and time-consuming. I’ll just endure it.”

“No. Wait fifteen minutes,” Cedrick insisted.

“All right, then.” Gwendolyn let him carry her to the back seat of the car.



She had been busy throughout the morning, so she started to feel sleepy. She ended up dozing off in
his arms two minutes later.

Nico got everything settled in Quinary Bar fifteen minutes later. Cedrick wanted to sneak into the bar to
look for Joaquin. However, Gwendolyn woke up the moment he moved a muscle.

Left without a choice, Cedrick carried her into the bar and arrived outside private room 3805.

Nico pushed the door open, and they saw the tables and floor were filled with wine bottles. Nico had to
spray some air freshener to mask the disgusting stench of alcohol in the room.

Afterward, Gwendolyn pinched her nose and entered the room.

Joaquin was lying on the couch. Heavily intoxicated, his cheeks were ruddy with alcohol, and he was
no longer conscious. It was obvious that he had plenty to drink before that.

Gwendolyn saw red when she saw the state he was in. No wonder people could take advantage of
him! He’s dead drunk!

She then suppressed her anger and turned toward Nico, who was standing by the door. “Ask the server
for a bucket of iced water so that I can sober Mr. Zipper up!”

“Okay!” Nico soon came back with a bucket of iced water.

Cedrick sat down on a couch at the side to avoid getting splashed by the iced water.

Splash!

Joaquin woke up instantly, and his teeth were chattering when Gwendolyn poured the icy water all over
him.



However, he still hadn’t sobered up completely. He waved his arms around angrily and fumed, “Who
poured water on me? You’re courting death!”

Gwendolyn folded her arms and stared at him expressionlessly. “It’s me. Your worst nightmare!”
