Chapter 20: Meeting the Ex-fiancé
How could she forget that the troublesome Olivier Petit was still living in her house?
The moment Gwenda recalled what happenedst night, she wilted.
But despite that, she still had to go home.
She could not avoid it forever now, could she?
"You can''t avoid what''sing anyway..." Gwenda thought with a quiet sigh.

Having no other choice, Gwenda gged down a taxi and headed home.
......
...
Meanwhile, back at Gwenda''s apartment, Otto was reporting to Olivier the whereabouts of Gwenda for
the day.
"Now, Miss Evans is on her way back."
Oliviery on the chair at the balcony with his eyes closed. Upon hearing this, his eyes cracked open a
little. "Got it. You may go."
"Yes, sir."
Havingpleted his mission, Otto left the apartment.
When he reached the ground floor using the lift, he saw Martin Morel, who walked passed him.
He evidently did not recognise Otto from theirst meeting.
Watching him enter the lift, Otto immediately called Olivier to report. "Boss, Miss Evans'' ex-fiancé is
here. He''s on the lift right now..."
Just as he said that, Otto noticed Gwenda in the periphery of his vision.
He immediately hid in the stairwell and added, "Miss Evans is also back. They may run into each other
at the door."
"Got it."
Olivier answered calmly and hung up.
Otto put away his phone and nced over at Gwenda. Seeing that she was in the lift, Otto decisively
slipped away after a moment of thought.
"Whatever happens next, let the boss handle it.
I''d better get the hell out of here before I''m dragged into things!"
......
When Martin got out of the lift, he went straight to the door of Gwenda''s apartment and keyed in the
password.
With a series of quick beeps, the electronic lock announced, "Wrong passcode!"
"Wrong?
How is this possible?"
Martin thought with a frown and keyed in the code again.
It was still wrong.
Upon exiting the lift, Gwenda saw Martin fiddling with the electronic lock on the door of her home. She
shouted angrily, "The hell are you doing?"
The sudden noise startled Martin and he turned around. When he saw that it was Gwenda, his face
morphed into one of unhappiness as he said, "You changed the passcode?"
Gwenda sneered at him as she stepped forward. "If I recall correctly, we no longer have anything to do
with each other. This is my home, what''s it to you if I change the passcode?"
A hint of difort flitted across Martin''s face as he did not expect her to be so crisp in regards to their
rtionship.
Before he could say anything, Gwenda asked coldly, "Why are you here?"
"Gwenda, I''d like to discuss with you about the matters of our engagement as well as my rtionship
with Gretchen."
"I have nothing to say to you. Get out of the way."
Gwenda refused him tly as she headed to the door, prepared to key in the code.
Martin stepped forward and stopped her. "Gwenda, it''s not Gretchen''s fault. I was the one who fell in
love with her, not the other way round. If you want to me someone, just me me. It has nothing to
do with her."
"Are you done? If you are, you can get lost now."
Gwenda''s stare was icy and her voice had so much venom within it.
Seeing Martin''s Casanova attitude, Gwenda felt nothing but pure disgust.
How could she have been so blind in her previous life? She let a scumbag like him ruin her for life!
Once again, Martin was shocked by how aggressive she was.
The girl in front of him was a far cry from the one he knew in the past. If it was not for the fact that she
looked the same, he would have certainly doubted that she was Gwenda Evans.
"Gwenda, I know that you hate me, but don''t get mad at Gretchen because of our matter, alright? She''s
innocent..."
"If hooking up with her sister''s fiancé is considered innocent, then please, tell me what is considered
guilty in your books?"
