Chapter 499

Gwendolyn found Patrick a little unfamiliar when she saw how disappointed he was.

She didn't know how to put it into words at the moment.

Still, she was concerned about her three children, so she turned to look in the direction of the Ashtonresidence. “Patrick, could you stop the car, please? I want to go back.”

Patrick's expression changed when he heard that. He abruptly pinned her against the car window, andGwendolyn's head hurt from the impact.

She widened her eyes as the handsome man emanated a chilly vibe. His eyes were dark andseemingly bottomless, making Gwendolyn feel as if she was about to be sucked into his gaze.

“Gwendolyn, are you still thinking about Zayden?”

The woman shook her head. “No, I'm worried about my children.”

Patrick didn't believe anything she said at the time. From his perspective, the children were just herexcuse.

His large hand gripped her chin tightly as if he wanted to crush her jaw. “Tell me, Gwendolyn. Do youlove me?”

A certain someone had always been very confident, and he was absolutely confident in everything hedid.

However, he lost his confidence in an instant that night.

Does this woman even love me? After everything we had been through together... Which was real andwhich was fake?

Gwendolyn was stunned for a moment after hearing that. Does he not know whether I love him or not?I've already given myself to him. Wasn't that love?

Men and women had different mindsets. Men could have sex without love, but women could only havesex if they were in love.

Therefore, Patrick didn't understand, and he had to ask her about it.

However, Gwendolyn didn't answer him, so the two just stared at each other. Since a certain someonewas overly tense, his head began to hurt all of a sudden.

His brows were furrowed, and the pain was simply unbearable.

He let go of her, sat back in his seat, and said coldly, “Stop the car and let her out.”

The driver stopped the car obediently. Gwendolyn opened the door, got out of the car, and watched asPatrick's car drive away.

She stood on the side of the road and stared at the car as it merged into traffic until she couldn't tellthem apart anymore.

Gwendolyn frowned slightly. This night has been far too chaotic.

Patrick was angry, and she could clearly feel it. Let's hope he calms down first! I will explain everythingto him later, and I will also explain everything clearly to Grandpa as soon as possible.

Gwendolyn felt much better after thinking about it that way, and she hitched up her skirt and walkedback home.

She returned to the Ashton residence after walking for about half an hour.

The banquet had ended, and Zachary and Candace were seeing the guests off. When Zachary sawher entering the residence, he complained, “Where have you been? You are the star of the banquet.How could you ask us to help you see the guests off?”

Gwendolyn glanced at him. “You guys should go and get some rest. I'll take care of the rest.”

She stood at the door and began to send the rest of the guests off.

Candace straightened her back and smiled as she nodded to each of the guests that were departing.When she saw guests that she was acquainted with, she would exchange a few pleasantries withthem.

When no one else was left, Candace approached Gwendolyn with a cold glint in her eyes. “We are theones who allowed you to return to the Ashton family, Gwendolyn. You are now Ms. Gwendolyn Ashtonof the Ashton family, and you are marrying into the Surrington family. You've taken all the good things,so don't even think about Fel's man anymore, do you hear me?”

At that moment, Gwendolyn finally realized that Candace and Felicia had planned tonight's banquet.

Her eyes narrowed slightly. “Candace, did you expect me to thank you? Heh, Patrick is mine.”

After saying that, Gwendolyn turned around and went inside, intending to look for her three children.

Candace was so angry that she trailed after Gwendolyn. “Gwendolyn, have you no shame? Youalready have Zayden, and you've given birth to his children. Why are you still thinking about Patrick?Do you take Patrick as a fool?”

Candace was terrified when she thought of the possibility that the children Gwendolyn had given birthto were Patrick's.

If the Lowen family found out about this, Gwendolyn would've done a great favor to their family bygiving birth to the triplets. The Lowen family didn't have many children, so the two elders woulddefinitely be overjoyed.
