Super CEO Daddy

Chapter 361

Gwendolyn was hearing about the contract for the first time. Surprise then flashed in her eyes as realization finally dawned on her.

Felicia couldn't stop shaking her head when she heard his declaration. Tears kept flowing down her cheeks too.

“But I have fallen for you, Patrick. I love you. I really do.”

Felicia sobbed miserably as pain and misery took over her heart.

Seeing her daughter's condition, Candace rushed to embrace her.

“Fel, how could you be so stupid? He has never taken you seriously. You must forget about him.”

However, after hearing the advice, Felicia looked at Patrick greedily and screamed, “No, Mom. I will not forget about him. I love him very much!”

Gwendolyn was deeply irritated by her stepsister. She couldn't help glowering at the latter while being impressed with her shamelessness.

Didn't Patrick say they merely have a contract between them? Honestly, she can't even be considered his ex-girlfriend. How could she be so shameless and pronounce her love for him?

At that moment, Gwendolyn could feel jealousy inside her. Though she knew many women would be attracted to Patrick, it didn't mean she would be fine with seeing one pronouncing her love for him so loudly.

Upon hearing her declaration, Zachary lifted his voice a pitch higher. “That's enough! Do you think you haven't disgraced yourself enough? We're going home now.”

Just then, Candace's phone rang. Blood immediately drained from her face after she answered it.

“Darling, Greg... Greg's dead...” she wailed.

Zachary hurriedly held his wife to support her. “Let's go check on him first.”

Felicia regained her senses when her parents were already heading toward the door. Uncle Gregory's dead? How is that possible?

She could feel her knees go weak.

When she was about to leave, Patrick suddenly got to her side. He was smirking, and the coldness in his gaze was rather scary then.

“This is his fate for hurting Gwendolyn, Felicia. I assure you your ending will be worse than this.”

Felicia looked at him with surprise as she didn't expect him to know the secret. Didn't Uncle Gregory promise me to keep this a secret? Didn't he swear not to tell a soul about it? No, I'm just scaring myself. He's dead. He's not going to say anything anymore.

However, she could not stop thinking, But what if Patrick has investigated the truth? Felicia started to panic when she thought of this. She shook her head and said, “I didn't do anything.”

She then quickly darted out of the boutique. After seeing such, Gwendolyn stood up, strolled to his side, and asked, “What did you say to her? Why is she so scared?”

Patrick circled his arms around her shoulder and slightly raised the corners of his lips.

“A warning.” Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

With his arms still on her shoulder, he led her out of Denzy Kenington boutique.

The executives and shop assistants, who were standing by the entrance, bowed and greeted them, “Mr. Lowen, Ms. Ashton.”

In a flat voice, Patrick instructed, “Please return to your work! But make sure to keep your eyes wide open next time.”

Patrick's warning almost caused the boutique sales manager to drop to her knees. What have we done just now? How could we mess with Mr. Lowen's woman then? Perhaps we all have a wish to be kicked out of Avenport. I sincerely hope that he can forgive us. We must memorize that lady's face and remind ourselves never to offend her forever.

After all, it wasn't an exaggeration to say that Patrick spoiled her to the core. He treated her like a princess.

When the two got to the dessert shop entrance, Gwendolyn tugged his shirt.

“Patrick, can you let go of me for now?”

She wanted to keep a distance from him because she didn't want to upset her sons, considering they hadn't entirely accepted him yet.

Patrick slightly creased his brows when he heard her request. “I know you're worried about saddening your sons, but has it ever crossed your mind that they know everything.”

Patrick knew that the two boys were trying to test him and helped Gwendolyn regain her pride.

It was essential to them that Patrick knew their mother was not easy to pursue. With them around to monitor him, the process to gain the heart of his love became extremely hard. Additionally, the boys attempted to use this opportunity to make him cherish her more.

Still, Gwendolyn stepped away from his embrace. “But I'm scared of them.”

She even smiled happily at the end of her sentence. Patrick was slightly displeased when she moved away, but he raised his brows meaningfully when observing the happiness on her face.

I guess that's a blessing for becoming a mother. I don't know what it feels like since I'm not a father.

Gwendolyn then walked into the dessert shop. Juliette quickly waved her hand at her mother after noticing the latter.

“Mommy, I leave some of your favorite strawberry cake for you.”

Justin pushed the cake to his mother's seat and placed a fork on the plate while Julian stood up to allow her to get to her seat.

“Mommy, don't take the aisle seat.”

Her two sons were gentlemen who knew how to take good care of ladies.

Patrick glimpsed at the four of them and noticed no additional seat for him since the table was for four. Seeing such, he had to sit across from Liam.

Liam smiled awkwardly upon realizing his boss' situation. “Mr. Lowen, do you want to have a taste of the desserts I ordered?”

Meanwhile, he exclaimed inwardly, I feel bad for Mr. Lowen.
