Chapter 101

She chose to ignore Felicia's words. After all, she herself knew better whether or not the man was old.

Felicia looked at Gwendolyn with a smug look, assuming the latter would feel sad. Gwendolyn,however, would not let Felicia get her way and changed the subject.

Judging from the luxurious manicure with real diamonds on Felicia's nails, Gwendolyn could tell thatthe former was well taken off in the Ashton family.

“That looks nice.”

After saying that, she returned to her table and added, “I'm talking about your nails.”

She did not compliment Felicia on her appearance, as the latter was always an ugly duckling to her.

Felicia had known about this since childhood.

In truth, both of her parents had a good look. However, she inherited their shortcomings of having smalleyes, a round face, and a flat nose.

Speaking of which, Felicia was livid. Somehow, she was glad that she had secretly had injectables toimprove her facial appearance these few years. At least, she was considered pretty among the crowdnow.

Things were the opposite whenever she stood together with Gwendolyn, though.

Felicia was furious at the thought. She wished Gwendolyn could die, but the latter was still alive.

Clenching her fists in rage, she gave Gwendolyn a cold glare and said, “Even if I'm not as pretty asyou, I am the apple of the Ashton family's eyes and have a better life than you. Look at you! You grewup without a mother, and Dad never liked you. Now, you even have to earn a living and raise three kidsalone at such a young age. What a pity!”

Gwendolyn's expression slightly changed when she heard that.

“Who's the culprit behind all of this, then? Felicia, what goes around will come around. You and yourmother will have to pay for it sooner or later.”

The two ladies started quarreling. As Gwendolyn began to turn the table on Felicia, the latter crossedher arms and stated, “Gwendolyn, go get me a cup of coffee.”

Gwendolyn was organizing Patrick's schedule, and she still needed to study and prepare herself foruniversity. Since she had a stable job now, she wanted to start improving herself.

“Mr. Lowen said I'm his personal secretary and serve only him.”

Patrick had never said such words before. However, he was not around in the office, and thus,Gwendolyn could bluff anything.

Infuriated, Felicia got up and approached Gwendolyn with a menacing look.

She swept everything on Gwendolyn's table onto the floor and scolded, “Gwendolyn Ashton, you'reonly his secretary. It's a job. Do you think you've become his wife just because of the headline?”

Gwendolyn was stunned when she saw her cup shattered. The cup carried a special meaning, as shehad made it together with her three children.

She immediately got up from her chair and pushed Felicia to the side.

“Are you crazy?”

Bending down, she picked up the pieces of the cup. Still, the photo of the four of them on the cup hadshattered. Damn it! She's still the same despicable girl I know.

Being pushed to the side, Felicia was enraged. She could not bear seeing Gwendolyn being aroundPatrick every day and wanted to get rid of her.

Hence, she stepped forward to pull Gwendolyn's hair. The latter, however, was no easy prey.

Back when Gwendolyn worked in Night City, Zayden had found her a coach to learn self-defense skillsto protect herself. Eventually, she earned herself a black belt in combat arts.

Hence, when Felicia pulled her hair, she turned around and pinned the former onto the floor.

Felicia did not expect Gwendolyn to fight back, and the pain was unbearable for her.

“Help! Gwendolyn is hitting me!” she screamed and cried, her voice sounding miserable.

When she raised her hand to wipe her tears away, a sinister smile could be seen on her face.

Let's see if you can stay in this company, Gwendolyn. I bet he'll definitely fire you.
