Zayden remained silent. It was too awkward for the mother and son to be interacting like this, so
Gwendolyn said, “Zayden, it's getting late, and I should get going now. My three kids are still waiting for
me at home.”
Zayden did adore her three children, and she knew it would be a concern for him if he knew the kids
were left alone at home.
“Sure, go ahead!”
Gwendolyn took another glance at Angeline, who still had a gloomy expression and looked sad.
She hated seeing Zayden and Angeline like this too. Similarly, she believed Julian and Justin would
also break her heart if they went against her words like that after becoming adults.
As a mother, she could understand Angeline's feelings very well.
“Mrs. Surrington, I'll take my leave then.”
Before leaving, she whispered to Zayden, “Make sure you talk things out with your mother. Don't leave
things hanging just like that.”
Gwendolyn left after taking her bag. Angeline asked Zayden, “What did she tell you? I'm sure she was
speaking ill of me.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZayden sighed. “Mom, why are you so against Gwen? She's from a noble family too, but her father
cheated on her mother with another woman, which was why she ended up living a miserable life.”
“Hmph. I don't want to hear any of that. I don't care who she is because I will never like her for having
children without getting married.”
Sure enough, Angeline's attitude was still as harsh as usual. Zayden was not too anxious about
changing her mind either.
“Mom, you should go back now. I need to get some rest.”
After saying that, he moved lower and tugged the sheets before closing his eyes.
Angeline wanted to stay around a little longer. She missed seeing her son if she were to stay home,
and she felt sorry for his current condition.
Their family had been finding doctors for him, even getting doctors from abroad to look at him, but they
were yet to come up with something conclusive.
She was worried about her son and would naturally want to stay by his side.
However, seeing that he wanted to get some sleep, she stood up and said, “All right, then. Zay, get
some rest, and I'll drop by again tomorrow.”
Zayden did not respond to that. Angeline stood by his bed and watched him for a while before turning
around to walk away.
After arriving back at Star Mansion in her car, Gwendolyn pushed open the door and saw Patrick
playing Lego with her two sons.
Justin occasionally looked at Patrick but did not say anything. It seemed to her that her sons had
already acknowledged Patrick's high intelligence for them to agree to play with him.
Meanwhile, Juliette was seen leaning against Patrick while blinking innocently at them. She was
holding a Barbie doll that was bought earlier that day.
“Come on, guys, faster! Mr. Lowen is almost done!”
Hearing this, Gwendolyn finally understood the entire situation.
Her sons did not agree to play Lego with Patrick. Instead, they were competing against him. No wonder
she caught the three of them in such a harmonious scene together.
Noticing her return, Camille walked up to her and said in a low voice, “Gwen, the kids are so happy
today. It seems like Mr. Lowen is a great father, after all.”
Gwendolyn changed her shoes and nodded with a smile. “Okay!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe went to the living room and sat next to Patrick. “What are you guys playing?”
They were entirely focused on the competition at first, but after hearing her voice, they all looked up at
her with excitement reflected in their eyes. Each of them only had eyes for her.
Juliette asked, “Gwen, where did you go? They are competing with Mr. Lowen!”
Gwendolyn was startled at that question. Knowing that she could not answer the question honestly, she
shifted the topic and asked, “Who will win then?”
Julian and Justin picked up their paces, with one studying the manual and another looking for the spare
parts. They had a clear division of work, resulting in their impressive speed.
At the same time, Patrick also fixed his eyes on the manual. After studying the manual, he quickly
looked for the spare parts and picked up his pace.
Juliette was carried away by Gwendolyn's attempt to change the topic and said, “Mr. Lowen, you got
this!”
She wanted to call Patrick daddy instead, but she dared not do so as she did not want Gwendolyn to
reprimand her. Anyway, she figured it was only a matter of time for her to finally call him daddy.
Justin glanced at Patrick before asking, “Did you go to the hospital to see Mr. Zayden?”
Julian also chimed in and asked, “How is he now?”
Gwendolyn's expression changed. She wanted to stop the topic, but it was already too late. Her lies
from earlier were exposed just like that.
