She had a surprised look on her face. Then, she could not help but laugh.

Patrick's expression hardened, and he stared at her coldly.

Earlier, when he was at the supermarket, the cashier had also stared at him like that. He was alreadyslightly annoyed by it.

However, Gwendolyn was also currently looking at him as if he was a fool, making him even moreirritated.

He had been considered a genius since he was young and had never been looked down on by anyonebefore.

“I didn't know which brand you like, so I bought everything.”

When Gwendolyn heard that, she laughed again and hugged him.

“Mr. Lowen, I'm not ridiculing you. I'm just happy. It's the first time I ever felt that you are the same asus ordinary people.”

Previously, she had always felt there was a gap in between them. He had always been the onesuperior to everyone, giving off an intimidating vibe.

She could not believe it even after she had become his girlfriend, as she still felt a distance betweenthem.

However, at that moment, she felt that the gap between them had narrowed considerably.

Although Patrick was annoyed, his mood was lifted significantly after she took the initiative to hug him.

“Do you still want it?”

Gwendolyn let go of him and took the two bags. She felt that he behaved like her two sons when hewas awkward.

She picked out the pack of sanitary pads for night use and headed toward the bathroom.

Patrick took a heat pack and made a cup of ginger tea. Then, he sat on the couch and turned around toglance at the master bedroom.

After a while, Gwendolyn walked out and saw the cup of ginger tea on the table. She smiled.

This guy! He's quite good at coaxing a woman! I'm so happy and blessed.

She sat next to him and wrapped her arms around his neck before pressing her lips against his.

Patrick froze at first before his lips curled into a smile, his eyes filling with adoration.

After a while, Patrick, who had seized the upper hand, let go of her.

“Drink the ginger tea.”

He did not understand the point of drinking ginger tea, but it was what he found on the internet when helooked for ways to alleviate menstrual cramps.

Gwendolyn looked at how earnest he was and grabbed the cup of ginger tea. It was warm against herpalm, spreading warmth to her heart too.

She had always been alone when handling these matters since she was young.

As she did not have her mother by her side, nobody could teach or share their experiences with her.

It was the first time someone had made ginger tea for her while she was on her period. She felt deeplymoved.

It felt as if the distance between them had narrowed again in an instant.

At that moment, she felt that she would be willing to marry him.

Patrick took out the heat pack. “Do you want to paste this?”

The product's label stated that it was able to warm the womb and relieve menstrual cramps.

Gwendolyn finished the ginger tea in one go and felt her body warming up immediately, especially herabdomen area.

She shook her head. “Actually, I don't get menstrual cramps after I gave birth.”

Before she gave birth to the triplets, the menstrual cramps she had been experiencing were indeed

severe. However, she did not experience menstrual cramps anymore after childbirth.

Patrick was still worried. “It can warm the womb. You should paste it.”

He tore the packaging and pasted the heat pack onto her abdomen area.

She yawned, as she was very sleepy.

“Patrick, let's sleep!”

She thought it would be their first time that night, but it was no longer possible. Although she felt slightlyapologetic, she did not have a choice.

Maybe it's not the right time yet. Let's wait for a few more days.

Patrick stood up and held her hand, leading her to the master bedroom. They lay on the bed.

The distance between them was a little far, and Gwendolyn turned to look at him.

“Patrick, can I sleep in your arms?”

She felt slightly uncomfortable that they were too far apart, as she enjoyed sleeping in his embrace.

Patrick frowned slightly and licked his lips lightly.

“Gwen, I'm feeling a little uncomfortable. Can you help me?”

He had initially wanted to control himself, so he had suggested sleeping separately.
