Chapter 301

She did not realize it before. Yet, now that she heard what her son said, she realized she was a richwoman.

The houses were a hundred and fifty million, and so was the necklace on her neck.

That meant that she already had three hundred million worth of assets.

However, she still felt pity that it was not in cash. After all, there was no way she could sell the housebecause the three houses were gifts for the children from their grandfather.

Thus, she would have to keep the houses for them. Besides that, the necklace might be hers, butPatrick told her that she would have to keep wearing it.

All in all, she was still poor.

“Sweetheart, work is important to me. I have to work no matter how rich we are.”

At that moment, Juliette ran over and noticed the beautiful dress Gwendolyn was wearing after shetook off her coat.

“Gwen, this dress is stunning! Did you go to a prince's ball?” she asked as she blinked her big, roundeyes in envy.

Gwendolyn smiled. “I went to work, not a prince's ball. I'll hold a grand birthday party for the three ofyou when it's your birthday. That way, you'll be the little princess, and your brothers will be little

princes.”

Juliette jumped in joy at her words.

“Hooray!” she exclaimed.

Then, Gwendolyn changed her shoes and looked at the time.

“It's getting late. You should all go to bed now.”

Justin and Julian looked at the time and replied calmly, “Okay. Juliette, let's go upstairs to bed.”

The children had already taken their baths and were already in their pajamas. Justin wore blackpajamas while Julian and Juliette were in cartoon pajamas that Gwendolyn had bought for them.

The children had different personalities. Justin was very particular and independent like a tiny adult.Thus, he would never wear pajamas with cartoons on them.

As Gwendolyn looked at him, she could not help but think he looked like someone.

Yet, she could not pinpoint who exactly it was. She then went over to them and hugged them all.

“Let's go. Let's go upstairs together. I'm going to bed too,” said Gwendolyn.

In reality, she intentionally said that for her sons as she planned on sneaking out later.

With that, the four of them went upstairs together. Juliette returned to her princess room while Justinand Julian still chose to live in the same room. Gwendolyn finally let out a sigh of relief when she sawthem close their doors.

She then returned to her bedroom and showered. After the shower, she grabbed a set of whitesportswear and changed into it. She already came up with an excuse that she was out for a night run ifshe happened to stumble across her sons later.

While she sat in front of her dressing table applying skincare on her face and hands, she picked up herphone and took a look at it.

She noticed that there were more than ten missed calls on it. Her eyes widened as she was puzzledhow she got so many missed calls when she had only gone for a shower. Thus, she quickly clicked onthem to have a look.

She could not help but chuckle when she saw that all of them were from Patrick.

Then, she opened her WhatsApp and saw a couple of missed video calls there too.

In the end, she sent him a text: What's up, Mr. Lowen?

Meanwhile, the man standing at her front door had almost finished an entire pack of cigarettes.

He quickly pulled out his phone when he heard a notification from it. When he saw what was on it, hemade a video call right away.

Gwendolyn answered the call, and her face showed up on the phone screen. At that moment, her hair

was down without any makeup on her skin. Still, she looked beautiful with her porcelain skin and cherryred, plump lips.

At the sight of that, Patrick's mind went blank. Even though he had seen her without makeup in thepast, it was the first time he saw her after coming out of the shower. She was stunning.

His Adam's apple bobbed sexily, and his dark expression seemed to brighten up a little.

“I'm at your front door. Come out.”

It turned out that Patrick had already waited for her for more than an hour. Thus, he was almost out ofpatience.

Still, Gwendolyn smiled and teased, “Oh! But I'm not sure if Justin and Julian are asleep yet.”

Patrick took a heavy puff of his cigarette as a hint of amusement flashed across his eyes.

“Aren't you already in your sports attire? They can't do anything if you say you are going out for a run,right?”

Gwendolyn beamed like a flower in full bloom at his words. He saw through me. What a sly, old fox.
