Chapter 379

Patrick's well now, so it's okay even if I bump into them.

At that thought, Gwendolyn smiled and called them sweetly, “Hello, Old Mrs. Lowen and Old Mr.Lowen!”

Warm was the best description for Hector's expression at that time. Alice was startled for a secondbefore raising her hand to pat his shoulder, voicing her curiosity wordlessly.

Don't you like Felicia a lot? Don't you want Pat to marry her? Why are you looking at Gwen with thatexpression?

Her husband ignored the hand on his shoulder and stared at Gwendolyn instead.

This young woman is the wife I've chosen for my grandson. She would have long married Pat if I didn'tbecome unconscious after being poisoned. Dear God, please let me recover as soon as possible sothat I can have Pat be responsible for her and have my three great-grandchildren reunite with theLowen family.

Just as Hector prayed earnestly in his mind, Zayden reached out to hold Gwendolyn's hand.

“Are they Old Mr. Lowen and Old Mrs. Lowen?”

Hearing his query, she came back to her senses and replied, “Yes. It's them.”

Zayden already saw the elderly couple's expression. It was apparent that they were delighted withGwendolyn and were also immensely fond of her.

Hence, he kept holding Gwendolyn's hand to assert that she belonged to him.

“Old Mr. Lowen and Old Mrs. Lowen, I'm Zayden Surrington from the Surrington family.”

Only then did Alice notice Zayden. This young man is quite good-looking. Even though he's in hospitalclothing, he still looks dazzling while sitting in a wheelchair.

“Mr. Surrington, what happened to you?”

Upon scrutinizing him, she noticed something was amiss with his gaze. His eyeballs were unmovingand dim.

Zayden's face broke into a smile.

“I got into a car accident during New Year and injured my eyes at that time,” he said straightforwardly,as though he did not mind sharing his story.

However, everyone at the scene knew he was merely pretending to be tough.

A thought instantly struck Alice at that moment. It's a pity for such a tragic accident to befall ahandsome child like him. Not only is he famous in Avenport, but he's also a capable person. Yet, hewent blind just like that.

Meanwhile, Hector fixed his eyes on Zayden's hand that was holding Gwendolyn's. Bitterness and furywashed over him.

Kid, take your hand off her! She's my granddaughter-in-law. I forbid you from holding her hand!

The elderly man glowered at Zayden, his eyes bulging out of their sockets. Infuriated, he tightened hisgrip on his wheelchair.

The housekeeper was terrified. “Old Mr. Lowen, what happened to you? Are you not feeling well?”

Alice was shocked to see him in that state. “Quick! Push him into the building.”

Afterward, she bid Gwendolyn goodbye anxiously. The latter was startled too.

“Old Mrs. Lowen, don't panic. We're in a hospital now. He will be fine.”

Initially, Gwendolyn was chatting happily with Alice and even invited the latter to go shopping andwatch a movie together before Hector started behaving weirdly.

While she was puzzled, Zayden's lips quirked into a smile. He could tell that Hector liked Gwendolyn alot as well and was incensed from seeing him hold her hand.

Gwendolyn did not have the mood to stay outdoors anymore. “Zayden, let's go back too! The wind is alittle strong here.”

When she turned around and pushed Zayden, a tall figure not far away from them paused for amoment.

Liam, standing beside the figure, was also frightened. That was because he thought Gwendolyn andZayden looked like a couple when she draped a blanket over his body.

No wonder Mr. Lowen is in a bad mood today. As it turned out, Ms. Ashton came here today to takecare of another man.

How he hoped he could raise his hands to cover Patrick's eyes so that the latter would not get anymore enraged from looking at the duo. Otherwise, he and his colleagues at the office would no doubtlive a more challenging life than before.

With a chilly gaze, Patrick stared at the figure intently. She's so meticulous when taking care of thatman.

He only strode to the hospital after Gwendolyn and Zayden left his sight. However, he did not head tothe inpatient building but to the building where Hector had his checkup done.

Alice and Hector were in Kevin's office at that moment.

Kevin poured Alice a cup of coffee. “Old Mrs. Lowen, have a drink.”

Hector's countenance was grim. At the thought of what had happened earlier, he was irate.
