Perfect CEO

Chapter 311

It was the first time that Gwendolyn had heard him talk about his parents. She did not understand much about the Lowen family.

She pursed her lips and replied, “Mm, I got it.”

She tightened her hold on his hands. His countenance appeared to be exceptionally grim and cold whenever he talked about his parents.

The temperature of his hands dropped. They felt rather cold. She exerted more strength in her grasp to warm up his hands.

Patrick felt the warmth she was giving him. The corner of his lips curved up faintly. He found Gwendolyn to be quite thoughtful and sensible.

The chemistry between them was getting better. She did not probe about matters that he did not wish to bring up.

Similarly, he would not mention anything that she was unwilling to talk about. The two relied on each other and understood the other person's feelings the way an old married couple would.

When they reached Platinum Plate, the chauffeur opened the door for them. Patrick got off first and walked over to her side. He reached out a hand to support her and used his other hand to cushion the top of the car for her. His actions were gentlemanly and considerate.

A few women who happened to pass by exclaimed, “Wow, are handsome men so caring? I want to be that girl too!”

Gwendolyn overheard them and smiled happily. Grabbing onto his arm, she felt utter bliss and merriment.

When they stepped into Platinum Plate, the boss of the restaurant personally welcomed them.

“This way please, Mr. Lowen.”

He brought them to Patrick's favorite private room called “Remember Partings.”

The name was rather fitting, considering the occasion. Gwendolyn raised her head to look at the sign. She pursed her lips.

That's a very sorrowful name. Can he really have a nice meal if he eats here every day?

She suddenly regretted her decision. She should have said that she wanted to eat at a different place. She wished that he could have a nice meal.

They stepped into the private room. The boss poured them some wine.

“Mr. Lowen, this is a premium brew. Please have a taste.”

Patrick nodded. “All right. I'd like the usual.”

The boss looked at Gwendolyn and chuckled.

“Your girlfriend is very pretty!”

“Thank you!” Patrick responded. It was evident that he had a good relationship with the boss. It was possible that the boss would have a drink with him whenever he came alone.

When the boss was just about to exit the room, he suddenly said, “Oh, right. Mr. Gomez is here too. He's in the room next door. You two used to come here together. Should I tell him that you're here?”

“There's no need. I only want to dine with her today!”

A date was meant for two. He did not want a third wheel disturbing them, even if they were his good friend.

The boss understood his intention and laughed before leaving the room.

When Gwendolyn heard the name “Mr. Gomez,” she thought of Lucy. It had been many days since she last corresponded with her.

She remembered that time Lucas had run away.

She pursed her lips and stood up.

“I'm going to the bathroom.”

Patrick could see through her lie, but he did not expose her. He knew about the relationship between Lucy and Gwendolyn. Lucas running away concerned a child's life. Gwendolyn couldn't ignore that.

Gwendolyn exited the room and glanced at the one next door.

She pushed the door open and strode in. The first thing she saw was Lucas kissing Lucy in his embrace.

Gwendolyn's eyes widened as she called out, “Let go of her!”

Lucy was obviously there against her will, but she did not dare to go against Lucas. The man was persistent and forceful. Lucy's clothes were a mess. If Gwendolyn had not appeared, Lucas might have his way with Lucy then and there.

The more Gwendolyn thought about it, the angrier she got. She wanted to punch Lucas so badly.

When Lucas heard her voice, he frowned with displeasure and let go of the woman in his arms.

Lucy hurriedly stood up and tidied herself. Her hair was in a mess, while her lips were slightly puffed up. Her pitiable appearance made her look rather tempting.

“Why are you here, Gwen?”

Lucy approached Gwendolyn anxiously and pulled her to a seat. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Gwendolyn felt rather disappointed. Lucy had an aggressive temper and a tough personality. Gwendolyn thought Lucy was much stronger than herself.

So, why did she allow this brat to bully her?
