Super CEO Daddy

Chapter 422

Gwendolyn raced downstairs, accidentally missed a step, and tumbled down.

Upon seeing that, Lucy gasped in shock. “Gwen!”

Once Gwendolyn landed on the floor, she remained unmoving.

Lucy rushed to her friend's side and tried lifting the latter. “Gwen... Gwen...”

When Gwendolyn heard Lucy's voice next to her ear, she opened her eyes and stared at her friend.

Rubbing the injury on her head, she muttered, “Ouch. It hurts a lot.”

“It's because your head's bleeding, Gwen! Even if you've lost him, you shouldn't act like this, idiot! Think about your children! What will they do without you?” exclaimed Lucy with tears.

It was then Gwendolyn returned to her senses and cried. “Take me away from here, Lucy. I don't want to stay here any longer.” Patrick really is cheating on me with Felicia. Not only that, he didn't even follow me out when he saw me! I'm so angry right now.

Lucy helped her friend up. “I'll take you to the hospital to patch you up. If you return in this state, you'll spook the kids.”

In response, Gwendolyn closed her eyes and thought about her friend's words. I suppose I did fall pretty hard. Tsk, I want to forget about the scene of Patrick and Felicia on the bed, but the more I try to, the more it refuses to leave my head!

Then she let Lucy drag her out of Patrick's house.

When they returned to her courtyard, Lucy settled her into the car and handed her a few pieces of tissue paper. “Press these on your wound to stop the bleeding.”

Gwendolyn opened her eyes. “Okay. I'm fine. Just drive slower.” It'll be a tragedy if the two of us get hurt. There are still four children waiting for us back home. We can't afford to die now. We must keep on living.

Looking at her through the rearview mirror, Lucy reassured, “Don't worry, I'll make sure we reach the hospital safely.”

Despite her dizziness and pain, Gwendolyn was still amused by her friend's words.

Both of them chuckled as Lucy drove. “You know, ever since the two of us had children, it's like we've become iron women. Now that I think about it, I used to be a delicate girl who acted coyly. Nowadays, I don't do that anymore.”

Closing her eyes, Gwendolyn thought about how Lucy had a much more tenacious personality than hers and sighed. “Regardless, our children are still the most precious thing to us. Without them, we would've had our regrets.” A woman's maternal instinct is too strong. Once we've become mothers, we'll do anything to provide the best for our children and love them. As for myself, I don't think I ever gave it too much thought. Maybe the children will say they don't need my love or companionship anymore once they grow up, but they need them as children right now.

Than sha lat Lucy drag har out of Patrick's housa.

Whan thay raturnad to har courtyard, Lucy sattlad har into tha car and handad har a faw piacas of tissua papar. “Prass thasa on your wound to stop tha blaading.”

Closing har ayas, Gwandolyn thought about how Lucy had a much mora tanacious parsonality than hars and sighad. “Ragardlass, our childran ara still tha most pracious thing to us.

“Where are you? Don't you care about the kid?” questioned Lucas.

She was amused. Why is he so worried about her? She's not his daughter. “I'm busy right now, so I'll be late. Besides, Melanie has the helps to take care of her. Also, she's not feeling too well lately and has been sleeping a lot. So, she doesn't need me.”

It was the truth. Otherwise, she wouldn't have left Melanie alone.

Additionally, she was in a hurry to bring her friend to the hospital.

“I'll give you ten minutes to get back here, Lucy. Melanie is crying,” demanded Lucas.

Upon hearing her daughter's cries coming from the other end of the call, Lucy glanced at the rearview mirror and said, “I'll be back soon.”

She immediately hung up the call. What a nosy man! Why is he in the hospital so late at night? Is he addicted to ward play? I don't want to go there anymore if that's the case.
