Chapter 63
Gwendolyn didn't feel like explaining as she was completely disappointed in Zachary.
She didn't want to be his daughter. Hence, when Felicia said that she wasn't a daughter of the Ashton family, she wasn't sad at all.
There was no point in her explaining things anymore. After all, even her grandfather had silently acknowledged that she wasn't one of them.
Alice grabbed Gwendolyn's petite hand. What a pity that she didn't have a privileged background. Look at her exquisite beauty. But, it's all right. As long as she wins Pat's heart, she will belong in the upper class.
Felicia straightened herself proudly. She was extremely pleased as she was now the respected daughter of the Ashtons, and Gwendolyn was no longer a threat to her.
In her knowledge, as a prominent family, the Lowens were bound to take their grandson's wife's background into serious consideration.
Thus, it didn't matter if Gwendolyn had unrestricted access to Patrick's mansion. After all, she could only enter his personal properties. There was no way he could bring her back to the Lowen residence.
Gwendolyn initially planned to prepare dinner first. However, Alice wanted to chat. Thus, she ordered the housekeepers to do the work.
Gwendolyn could only keep Alice company and watch TV shows.
Felicia, who wasn't a fan of TV shows, gradually fell asleep while watching.
Meanwhile, Alice tugged Gwendolyn's hand and sniffled. “Gwen, this plot is too tragic! That second female lead is clearly the one who commits all those atrocities, yet the female lead is the one to take the blame. Oh, I feel so bad for her!”
Gwendolyn was touched by the show as well. She took a tissue to wipe away her tears. “That male lead is too brainless. Why doesn't he listen to the female lead? She's already explained herself. Oh, my heart!”
When Patrick came home, this was the scene he witnessed—an old and young beauty sobbing together.
Stunned, he asked the housekeeper, who came to greet him, “What's the matter with them?” Aren't they on good terms? Why are they in a fight all of a sudden?
The housekeeper smiled and replied, “Mr. Lowen, they're watching television. Perhaps it's a heart- rending story that broke their heart.”
Realization dawned on the man. I see. These two are really alike, huh? They even cry over the same thing.
With that, he approached them and glanced at the television screen.
He then sat beside Alice and asked, “Grandma, why are you free today?” I seldom see her around as she's always with Grandpa.
Alice looked at her grandson after she finished weeping. He looks so good in a suit. My grandson is so handsome!
She then shifted her gaze to Gwendolyn, who was sitting aside. Gwen is so beautiful too! They are practically a match made in heaven.
“I came because I missed you,” she replied.
If Patrick knew that Alice was coming, he wouldn't have ordered Gwendolyn to cook for him. After all, he had decided that he was the only one who could taste her cooking.
Meanwhile, Gwendolyn's eyes and lips were red after crying. Her sad and pitiful expression only enhanced her beauty.
Patrick stared at her deeply and uttered, “It's fictional. Stop crying.”
Gwendolyn froze when she heard his cold voice. However, after glancing at him, her tears started splattering down on the floor again like beads of jewels.
Patrick was dumbfounded. I wanted to console her at first. Why has the situation become worse?
A hint of helplessness flashed through his eyes. He quickly reached out to wipe her tears.
As his slender fingers brushed across her face, he felt her smooth skin that was as soft as a baby's.
A smile appeared on Alice's face as she witnessed the scene. As expected, Pat has met his match. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Such an intelligent and powerful guy like Patrick was typically the one who had the situation in control. This was the first time he seemed to be wrapped around someone's little finger.
