    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 Charles‘ mother.


    Suddenly, she heard Triss‘ exmation and looked up, only to collide with someone familiar.


    “Sherman?”


    It had only been five or six days since theyst met, but he seemed to have changed a lot. The


    confidence in his eyes was diminished and reced by diffidence.


    Gwendolyn was surprised to see him wearing a waiter’s uniform. “Have you been working here


    recently?”


    Sherman froze, his face full of shame. He didn’t answer Gwendolyn’s question and turned to leave.


    Gwendolyn called out, “We have been friends for so many years after all. have a drink with me, Mr.


    Ferguson?”


    Would you like to sit down and


    Triss could still vividly remember what the Ferguson family had done to Gwendolyn previously.


    “The Ferguson family is no longer considered a prominent family, Gwendolyn. He doesn’t live up to that


    title anymore. Besides, he stopped being my friend the moment he tried to hurt you on behalf of


    Eloise.”


    Sherman was originally standing at the door, but he turned to look at Gwendolyn instantly upon hearing


    Triss. “I didn’t help Eloise hurt you. Furthermore, she’s now locked up in the women’s prison. Don’t you


    n to let her off?”


    Angered by Sherman’s words, Jasmine and Triss would have had an outburst if Gwendolyn hadn’t held


    them back.


    Gwendolyn chuckled. “I wasn’t nning on meddling with her affairs after I sent her to prison. Now that


    you mention this, I think she’s having a rather easy time in there.”


    Astonished, Sherman said, “I never thought you can be so cruel, Gwendolyn. She is just an ignorant


    girl, and she has already received the punishment she deserves.”


    Gwendolyn took a sip of juice and looked at him indifferently. She did not respond to his words.


    “Why don’t you mention how malicious your sister is? She is already an adult, but you still im that


    she is just ignorant. She is just a spoiled brat raised by your family!” Triss defended Gwendolyn angrily.


    “That’s right!” Jasmine chimed in angrily. “You know what you and she have done during Eloise’s


    birthday party. Gwendolyn was hardly harsh enough on her!”


    Sherman felt utterly desperate.


    It had been a living hell for the Ferguson family. They didn’t even have the money to bribe the prison


    warden for a visit,


    Sherman’s 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 thepanies 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.

    Sherman gripped the tray with his hands tightly to suppress his emotions. Then, lowering his stance, he


    pleaded, “Gwendolyn, 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.”


    Gwendolyn remained expressionless as she replied, “Since we are friends, I will pretend that I didn’t


    see you today so that you can continue working here in peace. Eloise got what she deserves. I am


    never a saint, and I won’t help her even if I can.”


    Triss immediately chased him away. “Did you hear that clearly? Get out and ask your manager to send


    another waiter over.”


    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 roomining under his breath as he


    walked past him.


    “Truly a son from a wealthy family. He can’t do anything right. He must have offended the customers


    again, and now I have to sacrifice my free time.”


    Sherman heard his words clearly and nced back at him.


    Frank became even more annoyed. “Why are you staring at me? I didn’t say anything wrong…”


    As the sound of insults grew fainter, Sherman’s 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.


    “Sherman! I don’t want to spend my life in prison. Once I’m inside, the other prisoners will target me


    and bully me! I’ll live in misery forever!”


    “The reason the Ferguson familynded 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!”


    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, “Let 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.”


    “Apologize to them? You’ve got to be kidding me. You’ll just mess things up again, and I’ll have to clean


    up the mess.”


    Sherman held onto the tray of juice in Frank’s hands tightly as he continued, “I feel bad for dragging


    you

    into this and resulting in you having to help me serve the customers in the private room. I’ll pay you my


    sry for today aspensation.”

    Frank was delighted to hear that. “At least you’re sensible. Go ahead then.”


    Sherman took the tray. ncing around anxiously, he then retrieved the rat poison before entering the


    private room.


    Sherman’s hands were trembling uncontrobly because it was the first time he had ever attempted to


    do something so malicious..


    However, at the thought of Evelyn’s promise, he mustered the courage to carry out the n. After


    making sure that there was nobody else around, he turned his back to the surveince 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.


    “What did you put?” 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 sshed the juice onto Nico’s face.


    Nico’s face was instantly covered in juice.


    While he was distracted, Sherman struggled with all his might to break free and ran away.


    “Go after him. If a weak and feeble man like him escapes from you, I will hold you ountable for it


    along with your other faults,” Cedrick ordered calmly.


    “Don’t worry, Boss!” Nico shuddered. Then, he quickly chased after Sherman.


    In the private room, thedies 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 didn’t even bother to look up.


    “You’re finally here. Can you help me grill this beef?”


    The man behind her remained motionless as he spoke coldly. “Helping you to grill the beef? Forget


    about it. I’m here to see my fiancée!”


    Upon hearing the voice, they all turned their heads simultaneously.


    Triss was so taken aback that she forgot her words.


    Puzzled, Gwendolyn asked, “Why are you here? Have youe to join us for a meal after smelling the


    aroma of grilled meat?”


    Cedrick felt disgruntled and replied in a sour tone, “You have all eaten, haven’t you? Why aren’t you


    concerned if I’m hungry?”


    O

    When he didn’t 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


    exnation. Then, he turned to leave with her in his arms.


    “Let’s go home! I’ll personally make grill meat for you!”
