You need to check it on the MouseDown event.

private void TextBox_MouseDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Right)
        wasRightButtonClicked = true;
}

The Click and MouseClick events are only generated by a left-click. If you want to detect right-clicks then you have to implement the MouseDown or MouseUp event.
