Chapter 307
Alice noticed Gwendolyn's blushing face. She had clearly seen Patrick attempting to kiss the woman.
Then, the old lady realized that she had arrived at the office at an inappropriate time. Alice would nothave disturbed the two of them if she had gone there later.
Holding Gwendolyn's hand, Alice smiled happily.
“Gwen, it's been a long time since you last paid me a visit. I've missed you.”
Meanwhile, Gwendolyn sat next to her on the couch. Rosalie was grinning sweetly as well.
“Gwen.”
Seeing this, the other woman gently nodded. Every time she met Rosalie, the latter would smile at her.She seemed harmless and cute!
“Old Mrs. Lowen and Ms. Chavez, let me make some coffee for both of you.”
As Gwendolyn knew that Alice liked to drink coffee, she rose and walked toward the entrance,intending to make a cup of coffee for her.
In the meantime, Patrick was seated at his office desk. He received a call and signed a few documents.Thereafter, he got up and approached Alice.
The man lowered his eyes and scanned the treats on the table. He did not like to eat those desserts.
After that, he sat beside Alice and wrapped his arm around his grandmother's shoulder.
“Grandma, why did you come to the office?”
Then, Rosalie beamed at him. “Pat, I went to window shop with Old Mrs. Lowen just now. After that, Ibought some strawberry cake so you can have it during teatime.”
It was only then that Patrick glanced at her indifferently and replied flatly, “Haven't you started work yet,Rosalie?”
His words implied that she seemed to be too idle.
Since Alice was a shrewd woman, she understood the meaning behind his words. However, she justsmiled and gazed at her handsome grandson. Then, she adjusted his tie for him.
“You haven't been home recently. Have you forgotten about your grandma after you had a wife?”
Rosalie was not angry, for she knew that was Patrick's character. The man did not care about others'feelings and always spoke his mind without a care in the world.
It was because of his frank character that Rosalie was so into him.
She replied, “That's because the New Year is around the corner. I'll only start working after the NewYear.”
Actually, Rosalie was going to work in Chavez Group, which was a company owned by her family.Hence, she could start her work whenever she wanted.
Hearing that, Patrick kept quiet. He glanced at the clock and asked, “Grandma, I have a meeting later,so I can't accompany the both of you. How is Grandpa doing lately?”
Alice knew that her grandson cared deeply for Hector's health. She knew how much they mattered toPatrick and that he was a filial child.
The incident involving Patrick's parents had impacted him greatly. Hence, he had never mentioned hisparents before. As the man lived with Alice and Hector since he was young, he was extremely close tothem.
During the six years when Hector was unconscious, Patrick would visit his grandfather whenever hewas available.
Sometimes, he would talk to his grandfather and stay overnight in the ward so he could take care of hisgrandfather himself.
Recalling that, Alice smiled. “He's all right. Nonetheless, he behaves like a small kid and often looks atyour childhood photographs. He probably misses you. Anyway, I don't understand what he says mostof the time.”
Patrick nodded and replied, “I'll visit him tomorrow.”
Following that, he got to his feet and walked toward his office desk.
There was a meeting he had to attend subsequently, so he had to go to the conference room soon.Contemplating how Hector kept looking at his childhood photographs and how he behaved before his
illness, Patrick felt that his grandfather wanted a grandchild.
Patrick was the sole successor of the Lowen family. Therefore, Hector was afraid that no one couldcontinue the legacy if Patrick did not have any children. Hence, he had always been nagging at Patrickto get married and birth a child.
That was the reason why Patrick believed that Hector was the one who had arranged for thosepassionate nights six years ago.
Yet, he had Gwendolyn presently. Whether what happened six years ago was a scheme or not, he didnot care anymore, for he wanted to hold on to the reality he was experiencing at the present moment.
The reality he was experiencing told him that Gwendolyn resembled the woman whom he had sleptwith six years ago.
Just then, Gwendolyn entered the office with the coffee in her hands. Patrick helped her to hold thedoor. Seeing that, Gwendolyn raised her head and smiled at him.
“Mr. Lowen, here is your coffee. Do bring it with you to the conference room so you can drink it there!”
