Super CEO Daddy

Chapter 516

Gwendolyn cast a meaningful glance at Kevin, silently urging him to stop speaking.

Her child is inside that operating room. There's no doubt she will be worried. As mothers, our primary concerns are the safety of our children and the success of the surgery. The medical skills you mentioned don't matter to us as much as the well-being of our loved ones.

Lucy managed a strained smile. “Mr. Chavez, I thank both you and Mr. Lowen for being here. Having you both here brings me comfort and a sense of security.”

Indeed, Lucy was being sincere. She didn't have to worry about anything with the presence of the two affluent gentlemen from Avenport by her side.

With their influential status, a simple gesture from the two such as hooking their fingers was enough to instill fear and prevent anyone in Avenport from having any thought to offend them. Therefore, even if Lucas didn't personally invite the doctors and they were not familiar with the others, the doctors would surely focus on the surgery for the sake of the two distinguished gentlemen.

At this point, Lucy silently hoped that God would bless them and ensure everything would go smoothly.

They were informed earlier that the surgery would take six to seven hours, and it was still ongoing.

Those who were waiting outside the operating room were growing tired. Patrick sat not far from Gwendolyn then. He repeatedly checked his watch with a cold, impatient gaze.

In contrast, Kevin wasn't overly concerned, knowing that the surgery would be complex and therefore take longer time.

He had his phone in his hand, appearing to be engrossed in a game.

Gwendolyn held onto Lucy, urging the latter to close her eyes and rest.

Liam came to the hospital as well to bring them lunch.

Liam presented the lunch to his boss with respect before handing another set to Kevin.

Kevin set aside his phone and said, “Perfect timing, I'm famished.”

Without any hesitation, Kevin started eating his lunch after opening it.

Liam's attention was drawn to Patrick, who exuded a cold and distant aura, much like he had been doing for the past few days. Patrick had been pulling long hours at the office, evident from the dark circles under his eyes.

Patrick would often work tirelessly when he was in a bad mood, resulting in his subordinates feeling reluctant to go home and stay at the office.

When Patrick finally left the office that day, there was a collective sigh of relief among his subordinates as they knew they could finally go home that night.

Liam was aware of the reason behind Patrick's bad mood. Recently, there was news of Gwendolyn being engaged to Zayden, and the couple looked radiantly happy together.

Does this mean that Ms. Ashton is being unfaithful to Mr. Lowen? In any case, it's understandable that Mr. Lowen wouldn't be in a good mood under such circumstances.

Liam was surely on Patrick's side. Seeing his boss being wronged, he was determined to support him in any way possible.

Patrick lifted his chin toward Gwendolyn, indicating to Liam that he should deliver the lunch to her.

That woman has been comforting Lucy tirelessly, hugging her for hours on end. I wonder if her arm is getting sore.

As the thought crossed his mind, his eyes grew darker.

Why should I care if her arm is getting sore? She's going to marry another man soon.

Patrick's temples began to throb, and he raised his slender fingers to massage his forehead in an attempt to relieve the tension. Kevin, noticing Patrick's discomfort, asked, “Did you bring your medicine with you?”

The medication prescribed by Kevin was effective in alleviating Patrick's pain.

In response to Kevin's question, Patrick lowered his hand slowly. “I'm fine.”

In response to Kevin's question, Patrick lowered his hand slowly. “I'm fine.”

Patrick hesitated to take the medicine in front of Gwendolyn. He considered himself a strong man and believed he could endure the pain without taking any medication.

Why are you so stubborn, Mr. Lowen? How can you expect others to care about you under such a circumstance?

Kevin shook his head, exasperated. “Why won't you let her in on what's going on?”

From Kevin's perspective, Gwendolyn should take responsibility and take care of Patrick until he fully recovered, considering the situation had come to this point. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

However, she ended up taking care of another man who went blind, even though his condition wasn't because of her.

The more Kevin thought about it, the angrier he became.

Liam stood beside his boss, and his brow furrowed with worry. He wanted to ask the same question Kevin had just posed but didn't dare. So, he could only stand there, feeling helpless.

Patrick's voice was icy as he responded, “Can't you just shut up and eat your food?”

Kevin was taken aback by Patrick's sharp retort, realizing that the latter had transformed into “Mr. Dissing” and had become even more scathing in his speech.

Kevin made a firm decision not to care about Patrick and continued to focus on eating his food. He reasoned that he would only have the energy to comfort Patrick's woman once he was full and satisfied.

Patrick's icy gaze fell upon Liam as he spoke. “Did I ask you to be a guard dog here?”

Liam quickly caught on to Patrick's mood. “I will send lunch to Ms. Ashton. But given the current situation with Ms. Ashton, why don't we refrain from sending her food, Mr. Lowen? Maybe it will help clear her mind if she stays hungry.”
