Triplets’ Attack: Game Over Daddy Chapter 246
“I’m sure you’re relieved now, Mrs. Surrington!” Gwendolyn replied.
Back then, Angeline brought a check along when she met Gwendolyn, and she wanted the latter to leave her son.
Gwendolyn refused the check, but she did whatever Angeline told her to. In spite of this, Angeline thought
Gwendolyn was unwilling to follow her instructions and never believed her as the latter did not want the money.
Since Gwendolyn and Alice had shown up here, Angeline should be at ease.
Angeline lowered her head slightly. “Naturally, I’m relieved now.”
Gwendolyn nodded in return. Then, she headed for the doorway.
As she passed by an area with black roses, a girl in a red dress was smiling cheerily and instructing the
housekeepers to water the flowers.
“Be careful. Don’t touch the petals.”
“All right, miss.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe girl held a stalk of black rose near her nose and smelled it. She narrowed her eyes and murmured to herself,
“Smells good.”
When Gwendolyn walked past the girl, she nodded at the latter as a form of acknowledgment.
Suddenly, the girl called out, “Please wait, Ms. Ashton.”
Gwendolyn stopped in her tracks. “How can I help you, miss?”
Rosalie Chavez shook the stalk of black rose in her hand gently. “I am Rosalie Chavez, the youngest child of this
family.”
A sudden realization dawned on Gwendolyn. “Hi, Ms. Chavez!”
Rosalie Chavez? Could this be Kevin’s house? Kevin’s family was the only family in Avenport that had this last name.
Therefore, Gwendolyn was certain the girl was Kevin’s younger sister.
She knew Kevin quite well, so she also behaved warmly toward his sister.
Rosalie scanned Gwendolyn from head to toe while tilting her head. “Are you currently Patrick’s girlfriend?”
There was a hint of hostility in her gaze as she asked that question.
Gwendolyn was no fool and sensed the hostility.
However, she had already told a lie earlier. It was too late to cover it up at that moment.
As such, she nodded. “Yes.”
Rosalie’s expression changed. “In that case, do you know what his favorite flower is?”
Although Gwendolyn had known Patrick for several months and even worked as his personal secretary, she knew
nothing about him apart from his coffee and dietary preferences.
She shook her head. He’s a man. Does he even like flowers?
Rosalie waved the black rose before Gwendolyn’s eyes and laughed heartily. “As expected, you don’t know. It shows
that he isn’t serious about you.”
After that, she turned around happily and resumed ordering the housekeepers to water the flowers and remove the
weeds.
Gwendolyn did not fathom the meaning of their prior conversation.
She eventually understood what was going on. The black roses were most likely planted by Rosalie.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGwendolyn strode out of the greenhouse. She had just exited it when she overheard a conversation between a few
housekeepers.
“Have you seen her? The young lady brought by Old Mrs. Lowen is so beautiful. Apparently, she’s Mr. Lowen’s
girlfriend.”
“I bet Ms. Chavez must be really upset.”
“Ms. Chavez has always liked Mr. Lowen ever since she was a child. Old Mrs. Chavez also intends to let her marry
Mr. Lowen. Isn’t Old Mrs. Lowen a close friend of Old Mrs. Chavez? Why didn’t the two of them help the girl out?”
“Don’t worry your heads about it. Ms. Chavez is the only woman who’s fit to be with a man of Mr. Lowen’s stature. It
doesn’t matter how many girlfriends he has. In the end, Ms. Chavez will definitely be the one who marries him.”
Gwendolyn raised her eyebrows upon hearing those remarks.
Apparently, there was already an arranged marriage involving Patrick. Felicia assumed she was the best woman for
him. From the looks of it, it was hardly possible for her to marry into the Lowen family.
Gwendolyn reflected on her own situation, too. Getting married to Patrick was simply out of the question!
Although Gwendolyn did harbor romantic feelings for Patrick, she felt inferior and figured she would not get married
in this lifetime. She only wanted to live a peaceful life with her three children.
As she pondered over this matter, she decided to keep her feelings for Patrick a secret.
