Super CEO Daddy

Chapter 498



Chapter 498

After coming to an agreement, the mother and daughter were ready to leave the room and face the guests downstairs.

While walking toward the door, Felicia revealed something voluntarily, “Thankfully, I've hired someone to tamper with Old Mr. Lowen's memory for a hefty sum. Otherwise, things would have gone downhill if he recognized you.”

Candace was taken aback when she heard that.

“You tampered with his memory?”

Felicia chuckled. “Yes, I did. Do you remember Maddy, my university friend? I was nice to her for a reason. Her family is known for being traditional healers and has many ancient books at home that contain peculiar medical knowledge. She even used to hypnotize us in the dorm back then. So I thought it was an interesting skill that could be useful in the future, and I became friends with her. Not too long ago, I contacted her family to help cure Old Mr. Lowen, and they were able to successfully treat him. In addition, I asked them to manipulate his memories after he fell ill.”

Felicia took these actions because she had noticed the strange way Hector looked at Gwendolyn. It was clear that he was fond of Gwendolyn.

Felicia could see Hector's intentions, and to ensure that everything went smoothly, she made the difficult decision to tamper with Hector's memories, causing him to not recognize Gwendolyn.

Candace laughed and hugged Felicia.

“You did a good job, Fel!”

She couldn't help but notice that her daughter was taking after her as Felicia seemed to have a sense of planning and calculation, carefully considering each step she took.

At the dining area, Zayden was lounging on the couch while Gwendolyn had brought him some food and was feeding him.

Zayden's face lit up with warmth as he savored the moment of being personally fed by Gwendolyn. He felt good, enjoying the moment.

As Patrick approached, Zayden acted as if he hadn't noticed the man and continued to open his mouth for Gwendolyn to feed him.

Gwendolyn felt a sudden grip on her hand, and she turned to see who it was.

She blinked in surprise, not expecting Patrick to approach her. She quickly glanced around, feeling anxious about the situation.

Patrick's voice was cold as he ordered, “Let's go.”

He seized her arm and forcefully yanked her to her feet, causing the plate in her hand to slip and shatter on the ground with a loud crash.

Upon hearing the commotion, Zayden looked up and asked, “Who is it? Gwen, are you all right?”

Gwendolyn turned to look at Zayden and saw that he had reached out to touch her, his expression dazed.

“Zayden, I accidentally dropped the plate. I've called someone to clean it up. Just stay seated and don't move,” Gwendolyn said urgently, worried that he might bump into something or hurt himself if he stood up.

Patrick's expression darkened when he heard Gwendolyn's words.

He then forcefully pulled Gwendolyn out of the Ashton residence, practically shoving her into the car. He quickly followed suit and got in, his anger palpable.

In a cold, commanding voice, Patrick ordered the driver, “Drive!”

The driver didn't waste any more time, as his boss' face was terrifying, resembling a hungry lion ready to pounce on its prey.

Gwendolyn's brows furrowed as she spoke, “I'm sorry, Patrick! I can't leave.”

She couldn't abandon the three children and her grandfather who were still inside the Ashton residence, and that was why she refused to leave with Patrick.

Patrick's piercing gaze bore into her, and Gwendolyn felt a shiver run down her spine.

Realizing that Patrick was not responding to her plea, she raised her voice and urgently called out to the driver to stop, “Stop the car!” Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

The driver slammed on the brakes upon hearing Gwendolyn's plea. However, Patrick's voice turned icy as he questioned, “Who is your boss? Me or her?”

The driver felt helpless at that moment. There was no denying that Patrick was the boss, but there was also a possibility that Gwendolyn could become Patrick's wife.

As a result, he didn't dare to offend either of them. In fact, he felt that offending the future lady boss, who was his boss' beloved, would only bring more trouble.

The driver's face was filled with anxiety as he started the car.

Gwendolyn gripped the car door handle tightly, her intent to get out of the car evident, but she couldn't.

Patrick let out a chilling chuckle as he witnessed Gwendolyn's futile attempt to leave the car. “Ms. Gwendolyn Ashton!”

As Gwendolyn heard Patrick's voice, she turned to look at him and noticed a hint of mockery on his face. Is he mocking himself for getting deceived?

“Patrick, I didn't mean to deceive you. There's something going on with my family, and my grandpa refuses to acknowledge me as his granddaughter. That's why I couldn't tell you that I'm part of the Ashton family,” Gwendolyn explained.

She worried that she would bring disgrace to the Ashton family, and that was why she had never spoken about it.

She had never disclosed her family background to Zayden either, so she was puzzled as to how the man had found out and taken the initiative to visit her family and speak those words to Michael.

Patrick let out a derisive chuckle. “Gwendolyn, is it truly beyond your capabilities to share the truth with me?”
