Perfect CEO
Chapter 376

Chapter 376

Liam did not think much about it. He knocked on the CEO's office door, strode into the office, andplaced the document in his hand on Patrick's desk.

“Mr. Lowen, this document requires your signature.”

When Patrick was signing the document, Liam turned his head to look at Gwendolyn's desk. It was stillthe same as before.

Liam said with a smile, “Congratulations, Mr. Lowen! Is the marriage between you and Ms. Ashtonnearing?”

He thought Gwendolyn's resignation meant they would announce their marriage soon, and theirwedding wouldn't be far away.

Patrick glanced at Liam coldly after listening to the latter's absurd words.

“Liam, are you very free recently?”

Liam was shocked. “Mr. Lowen, I have been very busy recently. The hotel and the commercial center inthe eastern district are under construction, and I have been watching this project.”

Patrick's expression turned grim when he heard Liam saying the eastern district. He had placed theland under Gwendolyn's name. As for the hotel and commercial district, they would be her propertiesafter the completion of the construction in two years.

At that thought, Patrick pursed his lips. He was paving the way for their future.

He worried that Hector would think she was a daughter from an ordinary family and their familybackground wouldn't match.

Therefore, Patrick wanted to give Gwendolyn a lot so that she could become rich. Then, no one woulddare to doubt her, gossip about her, or even speak ill of her anymore.

However, Patrick was unhappy when he thought about Gwendolyn taking care of another man.

“Go out. Don't come in if there's nothing urgent.” Patrick's cold voice that was filled with anger soundedin the huge office. Liam quickly took his document.

“I'll leave right away!”

Liam turned around and trotted out of the office.

Amber, who happened to be outside of the office, smiled and asked, “Is Mr. Lowen in a good mood?”

Liam frowned as he recalled almost being sent to Alendor.

“Ms. Johnson, tell everyone to be careful today.”

Amber immediately understood what it meant. Whenever Patrick was not in a good mood, the wholeLowen Group would turn gloomy, and the next moment, everyone would be extra careful.

However, the atmosphere in the CEO's office was so tense that whoever entered would be scoldedheavily, and no proposal would pass that day.

Even a proposal from a year ago would be revoked, and everyone had to work overtime to develop anew one.

Liam wiped his cold sweat off as he lost count of how many times he was scolded that day. He was soscared that he planned not to come to the office the next day.

Liam went to the pantry and poured himself a cup of coffee. While drinking the coffee, he took out hisphone and called Gwendolyn.

Gwendolyn was dozing off on the couch in the hospital as Zayden was taking a nap. She sprung upimmediately and grabbed her phone as she heard the phone ring.

“Hello.”

Her voice was sweet and gentle, evoking the sensation of a warm breeze.

“Ms. Ashton, did you quarrel with Mr. Lowen?” Liam asked as he thought about the atmosphere ofLowen Group that day.

It was like a disaster, and everyone almost froze to death.

Gwendolyn stood up and walked to the living room outside.

“I guess you could say so. He was not happy that I resigned.”

Patrick was being very petty. Even when Gwendolyn had made it clear that he was the one she loved

and she only took care of Zayden to repay him for helping her, Patrick was still mad and jealous aboutit.

Gwendolyn did not want to coax Patrick. He can do whatever he wants.

Liam finally understood the cause.

“Ms. Ashton, how about you just come back to work?”

When Gwendolyn was in Lowen Group, the atmosphere was great. They did not have to face Patrickbecause they would send Gwendolyn to comfort him whenever something happened or when Patrickwas not in a good mood.

Now, they missed Gwendolyn and hoped she would go back to work.

Gwendolyn let out a sigh. “To be honest, I want to go back too, but I have something going on recently,so I won't be able to go back to work at the moment.”
