Super CEO Daddy

Chapter 28



Chapter 28

Gwendolyn took a seat next to her grandfather. She did not expect that the guest Michael had mentioned earlier was Patrick.

If she had known it earlier, she would not have stayed.

Meanwhile, Felicia walked up to Patrick. “Patrick, let's take a seat over here.”

She wanted to hold his hand, but he avoided her. At that moment, Felicia felt embarrassed. It was then she remembered that they had nothing but a fake marriage.

The man had no feelings toward her at all. Hence, she had to work hard to make him fall in love with her.

Returning to where he sat earlier, Patrick asked Michael, “Old Mr. Ashton, may I know who this lady is?”

He gazed at Gwendolyn. The latter knitted her brows. She did not understand the intention of him asking that question.

Before Michael could say anything, Felicia quickly piped up, “Her name is Gwendolyn Ashton, our housekeeper's daughter.”

Then, she shifted her gaze at Michael as though she was hinting at him not to disclose anything to the Lowen family, especially when Gwendolyn had such an embarrassing past.

Michael's expression changed subtly. However, he was someone who took his pride more seriously than anything else. As such, he admitted Felicia's words in silence.

Gwendolyn's eyes became dim when she heard those words.

She should not have come home. Now that she had visited her grandfather, it was time for her to leave.

Then, she rose to her feet and said, “Grandpa, I'll make a move first. You guys enjoy yourselves. I'll pay you another visit when I'm free.”

She was mad at being introduced as the housekeeper's daughter. However, she could not do anything about it, as her grandfather had said nothing.

Since she was young, she had always felt a sense of unfairness for her mother to marry her father. The man had kicked them out of the house after having an affair. He even allowed his other daughter to introduce his ex-wife as a housekeeper.

Gwendolyn felt extremely frustrated at that moment.

She wanted to make a fuss on the spot, telling everyone that she was the daughter of the Ashton family.

Nonetheless, she was in no position to do that, as her father would undoubtedly side with his other daughter and his mistress.

Gwendolyn tried to keep her elegance as she walked out of the Ashton residence.

Patrick had thought that she was the daughter of the Ashton family. Yet, he did not feel surprised after knowing that she was the housekeeper's daughter. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

If she really was the daughter of the Ashton family, she would not be living in Snowy Lane and could barely pay her rent.

After leaving the Ashton residence, Gwendolyn leaned on the wall and closed her eyes, trying to calm herself down.

She felt the urge to return to the residence and smashed everything up in the living room. She also wanted to point at Felicia's nose, telling her that she was the b*stard herself. At the same time, she wanted to shout at Candace that she did not even deserve to carry shoes for her mother.

All those thoughts ran through her mind, yet there was nothing she could do.

Just then, a Mercedes-Benz stopped at the gate. Zayden got out of the car and gave her a hand.

“What are you doing here, Gwen?”

He could not find her everywhere just now, and he would not have found her there if he had not asked Camille.

Gwendolyn lifted her head upon hearing his voice. She then forced a smile on her face.

“I'm here to visit Grandpa, but I suddenly feel dizzy.”

She told a blatant lie. It was not the dizziness. Instead, she was overwhelmed with anger.

Zayden helped her to get into the car and fastened her seat belt before he got into the driver's seat.

“Let me take you to the hospital.”

Noticing her pale look, he would only feel relieved for her to get a checkup in the hospital.

Gwendolyn took in a deep breath and replied, “No need. Just send me home.”

Then, she wound down the car window to let the breeze caress her skin in an attempt to calm herself down.

She hated the family of three, but not her grandfather. Therefore, she could not make a scene that day because she did not want to embarrass her grandfather anymore. Moreover, her grandfather was not in good health.

She swore to make the mother and daughter pay for the horrible things they had done to her.

Zayden turned to look at her occasionally while driving the car.

“Did you get into a fight with your family?”

All these years, she was always smiling whenever he saw her. It was his first time seeing her sad that day.

Meanwhile, Patrick followed behind Gwendolyn when she left, thinking of sending her home.

Nonetheless, he saw her get into Zayden's car. He rubbed his chin as a tinge of complicated feeling flashed across his eyes.

He wondered why the seemingly ordinary woman could enter the Ashton residence as she pleased. On top of that, she could even have the eldest son of the Surrington family pick her up.

For some reason, he felt unhappy when he saw the woman get into someone else's car.
