Chapter 603 Not The Right Man

Gwendolyn shook her head. “Grandpa, they didn't bully me. In fact, they even helped me secure a

significant betrothal gift from Zayden's parents!”

She was being honest. Apart from the traditional betrothal gift, the Ashton family also requested two

pieces of land.

Despite the excessive request, the Surrington family accepted it.

However, she had already told Zayden not to give away the land titles because her father and uncles

were blatantly taking advantage of Zayden's family. They were the ones who wanted the land, not her.

“That's good, then.” Michael chuckled.

Gwendolyn went on to feed Michael half a bowl of oatmeal porridge. He ended up eating more than

usual that day. After his meal, he took his medication and dozed off.

It's good that Grandpa is able to eat and sleep well. Gwendolyn then said to Zayden, “Zayden, I'm

staying here tonight to keep Grandpa company.”

“Mr. Surrington, I'll send you back.” Suzanne walked up to Zayden and held his hand.

When Gwendolyn was about to bid them farewell at the elevator, Zayden suddenly reminded her,

“Sleep early tonight and don't overtire yourself. You'll be a bride in two days, so you wouldn't want to

have dark circles under your eyes.”

Zayden thought she would regret it if she were to look ugly during her wedding. After all, the wedding

day matters the most to a woman.

“Okay. Grandpa won't be on an IV drip tonight, so I won't stay up,” Gwendolyn replied. We have nurses

and caretakers around. If I get tired, I can go to sleep.

When Michael fell sick in the past, Gwendolyn was the one who accompanied him through the nights at

the hospital. Although she was young, she was good at looking after a patient.

Upon returning to the ward, Gwendolyn tucked Michael in.

A housekeeper then prepared a bed for Gwendolyn and said, “Ms. Ashton, we're right outside. Please

call for us if you need help.”

Gwendolyn smiled and nodded. Afterward, she couldn't help glancing at Michael. I hope Grandpa gets

well soon.

With that in mind, she sat in the chair next to the bed and held Michael's hand. Grandpa looks weaker

by the day. I don't want him to die. Back then, he protected me when I was staying in the Ashton

residence. Without him, I wouldn't be who I am today. However, I was still hurt by that pair of mother

and daughter in the end. I eventually left home, grew up, and became a sensible adult. Now, I just want

to spend a few more years with him.

As she thought about that, her eyes became misty, and her tears began dripping onto Michael's hand.

Michael woke up to see Gwendolyn sobbing. “Gwen? Why are you crying?” he asked.

Michael knew Gwendolyn was scared of him dying, and he also knew that she was the only member of

the Ashton family who wished to see him live.

Seeing that Michael had woken up, Gwendolyn suppressed her tears and wiped her cheeks dry. “I'm

sorry, Grandpa. I must've woken you up.”

When Michael fell sick in the past, Gwendolyn was the one who accompanied him through the nights at

the hospital. Although she was young, she was good at looking after a patient.

“It's all right. We can chat for a while.” Michael smiled.

Gwendolyn sniffled and nodded, but her eyes were still brimming with tears. I don't want Grandpa to

die... I want him to live and watch my kids grow up.

Noticing that, Michael heaved a long sigh. “Gwen, I'm old, and I'll die sooner or later. If I die, I can

finally be free of pain. Thus, there's no reason to be sad.”

“No, Grandpa. You'll live well into a ripe old age.” Gwendolyn started sobbing again. I can't accept it.

I'm losing the only family member close to me.

Michael lifted his hand to help her wipe her tears away. “Don't cry, Gwen. I prefer to see you smile.”

Gwendolyn couldn't help it, but she knew she had to pull herself together. I can't let Grandpa feel bad.

“Gwen, marrying Zayden is a good thing. Of course, he's not as incredible as Patrick. Patrick is

handsome and capable, but he's not the right man for you. Let Fel have him, okay?” Michael uttered.

Gwendolyn was stunned when she heard that. What? Does Grandpa know everything?

Michael chuckled when he saw the surprised look on her face. “Have you forgotten about the fact that I

was the one who gave you those three mansions? I know who you meet all the time. Still, you should

listen to me, Gwen. Distance yourself from Patrick. Otherwise, you'll get hurt.”
