Gwendolyn only headed back to the office after seeing off Alice and Rosalie.

She was outside the office when she heard the other secretaries talking among themselves.

“Did you see that? That was the third daughter of the Chavez family. Her grandmother and Old Mrs.

Lowen are best friends, and as the rumor goes, that young lady is the one who'll actually be Mr.

Lowen's future wife.”

“She looks rather young, but she's quite cute. She and Mr. Lowen would be a good match.”

“Then what about Ms. Ashton? Is Mr. Lowen really planning to keep her as his mistress?”

At that, they burst into laughter. To them, Gwendolyn was just someone who had managed to use her

beauty to win Patrick's favor temporarily.

She couldn't compare to Felicia, and she definitely couldn't hold a candle to Rosalie.

Nonetheless, Gwendolyn was not the least bit bothered by their nasty remarks. She used to think that

way too, but Patrick had told her he'd stay by her side forever. She had to trust him.

She strode into the office, her heels clicking on the floor so loudly that it startled the women gathered in

the cubicle. They dashed back to their seats, not daring to say anything more.

By the time Patrick returned to the office, it was already half past six in the evening.

Gwendolyn was in the middle of a video call with her children. Juliette was in the center of the screen,

facing Gwendolyn directly. Meanwhile, the two boys were on either side of her with only half of their

handsome faces showing.

“Mommy, are you working overtime again?” Juliette's voice rang out.

Patrick heard it loud and clear, and he knew at once that Gwendolyn must have given the children the

excuse that she had to work overtime when she was actually going on a date with him.

Gwendolyn gave it a thought and glanced at the good-looking man sitting in front of her desk. He was

frowning, and his gaze was grave. She could also detect a hint of exhaustion on his face.

It had been a long day for him as he had been in four or five meetings, and Gwendolyn's heart ached

as she thought about how overworked he was.

“That's right. I have to work overtime today, so all of you must be good and listen to Ms. Ziegler. The

piano teacher will be over soon, Juliette. Remember to pay attention in class.”

“Don't tire yourself out,” Justin said softly.

Julian piped up, “You're completely capable of raising us now.”

He was reminding Gwendolyn that she did not have to work so hard because her two boys could earn

money. Moreover, she had all those assets.

Gwendolyn smiled. “I know. Bye!”

She was still beaming after ending the video call, feeling all the tiredness from a day's work melting

away after seeing the beautiful faces of her three children.

She rested her chin on her hand and thought about how the trio was the greatest gift from the heavens.

At that moment, she felt utter bliss and contentment.

Patrick found the sight of her being lost in thought sweet and heart-warming. He said softly, “Come

here, Gwen. Let me hug you.”

His voice jolted her to her senses, and she got up and walked over to him. He pulled her onto his lap

and hugged her close while she opened her arms wide and wrapped them around his neck. Smelling

his faint fragrance gave her an unparalleled sense of security.

As for Patrick, all his fatigue seemed to fade away as he held her in his arms, and he felt revitalized

and full of energy.

After cuddling for a while, she patted his head and said, “I'm hungry.”

After all, it was almost seven o'clock in the evening. She felt like she could practically eat a whole cow.

Patrick chuckled. “Okay. Let's go and eat.”

They got up and slipped on their coats, then turned and headed toward the door.

When he walked up next to her, he reached out to take her hand as if it were the most natural thing in

the world.

Gwendolyn lowered her head, her eyes flicking downward. She wanted to pull back her hand since

they were still at the office. There might be people who hadn't left yet. If someone saw them, she would

become the subject of gossip again.

However, he refused to let go. “I'll never let you escape in this lifetime. Just be good and stay by my

side.”

From the first day I let her work in my office, everyone must've already picked up on my feelings for her.

Hence, she doesn't have to worry. She can openly show everyone that she's my woman.
