Perfect CEO

Chapter 103

With that, she began to wipe her tears again. The hatred in her eyes was so intense. How dare she sayI'm ugly!

She had pulled Gwendolyn's hair to serve as a warning just now. However, she had never expected thelatter to retaliate and seemed to learn combat skills before.

Feeling resentful, she was determined to give Gwendolyn a lesson.

With a sneer, Patrick lowered the projector screen, clicked on his phone, and started to play footage ofhis office.

Felicia gaped at the screen in utter shock because Patrick had zoomed in on every single movement ofhers. Everything was clear now.

It was obvious who was in the wrong between the two.

As the footage ended and the projector screen retracted to its original position, Patrick smiled faintly,sending a chill down Felicia's spine.

Felicia swiftly sat up straight and tried to explain, “Patrick, she called me ugly! That's why I grabbed herhair.”

Upon hearing that, Patrick scoffed, “Well, she's only telling the truth.”

That was undoubtedly another pierce to Felicia's heart, making her feel even more miserable.

“Patrick...”

She got up and sat next to Patrick, trying to hold his arm.

However, Patrick moved aside as he said coldly, “Felicia, we're only business partners, and I havegiven you some benefits and authority. Others may have to treat you with respect just because you'remy woman, but not Gwendolyn. Do you understand?”

Felicia nodded, even though she was unhappy that Patrick was protective of Gwendolyn.

She's only a secretary. Couldn't she show some respect to me?

Still, she pretended to give in.

“Understood. I promise I won't mess with her again. Please don't be angry, Patrick. By the way, didn'tyou say that you want me to go home with you tonight? I didn't get to see Old Mr. Lowen that day.Hence, I bought him a gift today.”

She then took out a box of health supplements.

“It's good for elders.”

She smiled faintly, thinking Gwendolyn was no longer her concern after gaining the Lowen family'sfavor and becoming Patrick's woman.

Once I have Patrick's heart, nothing can stop me from bullying Gwendolyn anymore!

Meanwhile, Gwendolyn returned from photocopying the documents and saw Felicia was smiling. Mr.Lowen is not only a capable person but also good at coaxing a woman.

Putting the documents on the table, she informed, “Mr. Lowen, I've made the document copies as yourequested.”

With that, she returned to her table and continued her work. However, she felt uneasy in front of thecouple, feeling as though she was a third wheel between them.

Hence, she stood up and stated, “Mr. Lowen, Mr. Derner said we're running out of coffee beans andasked me to buy some from the store.”

As soon as her words fell, she grabbed her bag and left. They had indeed run out of coffee beans, buther initial plan was to get someone to send the coffee beans over. Buying coffee beans from the storewas just an excuse.

“Okay!” Patrick replied.

He thought Gwendolyn was in a bad mood and probably did not want to see Felicia. Since he neededFelicia for an act later, he could only let Gwendolyn leave for a break.

Initially, Patrick told Felicia that he needed her for an act, and the driver would pick her up at six o'clock.

Never did he expect she would arrive earlier and bump into Gwendolyn.

When Gwendolyn exited the CEO's office, Liam arrived. He greeted with a smile, “Ms. Ashton, whereare you going?”

Gwendolyn flashed him a charming smile.

“Mr. Derner, I told Mr. Lowen that you asked me to buy coffee beans from the store just now. Pleasecover that for me. Thank you!”

She put her hands together and bowed at Liam.

Liam felt a tad surprised.

What? Ms. Ashton, are you kidding me? How could I get you to run an errand? Oh, no. I'm doomed!
