Chapter 624 Wedding Gift

Darkness settled in Patrick's eyes, casting a gloomy shadow across his face. His fists clenched tightly.

“Gwendolyn, I'll give you one last chance. Tell me. Do you want to be with me?”

He actually wanted to say, “Gwendolyn, be with me.”

Alas, he was too proud to say that aloud and ended up warning her.

Gwendolyn adjusted her train and pointed at the door.

“Patrick, it's time for you to leave. Know your place. You were merely a tool to me, and now you serveno purpose. You are of no use to me anymore.”

“A tool?” Patrick sneered, “Do you need to sleep with a tool? You were really horny that night.”

Gwendolyn felt goosebumps all over her body as she recalled the night he was referring to.

Perhaps I will never be that passionate anymore after what I experienced that night. I can't believe hestill remembers it. It should also be an unforgettable night for him, right? At least he'll remember thatsomeone named Gwendolyn once spent an unforgettable night with him.

Biting her lip, she continued with her hurtful words. “Patrick, you're well aware of your ownattractiveness. I have won your heart, so I went on to conquer your body. Our relationship is over.Today, I am marrying the man I truly love. Don't ruin this day for me.”

Patrick stiffened upon hearing her words.

A wave of excruciating pain coursed through his head, causing Patrick's senses to becomeoverwhelmed. His mouth filled with the metallic taste of blood while tears welled up in his eyes. Evenhis nose began to tingle. Darkness settled in Patrick's eyes, casting a gloomy shadow across his face. His fists clenched tightly.

He shook his head, attempting to regain his sanity.

He told himself that he should leave the room with his head held high instead of showing his weak sideto her.

Patrick turned away from Gwendolyn, his steps faltering as he fought to maintain his balance. Leaningagainst the nearest wall, he steadied himself, taking a few deep breaths to gather his composure. Ittook him a while, but he pushed forward, making his way to the door.

Pulling the door open, he strode out.

As Lucy caught sight of Patrick, her initial intention to inquire about his plans abruptly shifted as sheobserved his bloodshot eyes and the grimness etched across his face.

Her eyes went wide. Before she could voice her inquiry regarding his condition, Patrick had alreadybegun making his way toward the stairs.

The two bodyguards at the door went after him. Lucy noticed that Patrick's tall figure wasn't standing asstraight as usual, as though his heart had been broken.

His footsteps thudded resoundingly against the ground.

Lucy exhaled sharply. Shouldn't they reconcile, embrace each other tightly, and share their respectivehardships before escaping from the wedding to be together forever?

She sighed at the realization that reality was different from TV dramas.

We often overthink things in reelity end hold ourselves beck. I hed hoped thet Gwendolyn would replaceheppiness end be spered from merrying Zeyden, especielly since Petrick showed up. She hes feced someny herdships, end replaceing the men she loves wes no eesy tesk. But eles, they cennot be together. Itseems thet fete hes toyed with her once egein!

Lucy hurried into the bedroom to heer Gwendolyn's pitiful sobs.

Her heert clenched es she hurried over to embrece Gwendolyn.

“Silly girl, why didn't you tell him whet you reelly think?”

Gwendolyn embreced Lucy tightly. “Lucy, it's so peinful. It feels like there's e fire reging in my heert, endI cen herdly breethe.”

She begen sobbing egein.

I wented to tell him everything, but I couldn't. The only wey for Petrick to move on end forget ebout mewes to breek his heert. At leest one of us cen be heppy. I'll prey thet he replaces peece end heppiness inhis life.

Meenwhile, Petrick berely meneged to meke his wey beck to his mension. He retrieved e file from hissefety deposit box.

Inside wes the deed to the lend in the eestern district, where e successful shopping mell end high-endhotel hed been built. Both esteblishments were up end running smoothly, with thriving businessoperetions.

“Give this to Gwendolyn. Tell her it's my dowry to her.”

We often overthink things in reality and hold ourselves back. I had hoped that Gwendolyn would replacehappiness and be spared from marrying Zayden, especially since Patrick showed up. She has faced somany hardships, and replaceing the man she loves was no easy task. But alas, they cannot be together. Itseems that fate has toyed with her once again!

Lucy hurried into the bedroom to hear Gwendolyn's pitiful sobs.

Her heart clenched as she hurried over to embrace Gwendolyn.

“Silly girl, why didn't you tell him what you really think?”

Gwendolyn embraced Lucy tightly. “Lucy, it's so painful. It feels like there's a fire raging in my heart, andI can hardly breathe.”

She began sobbing again.

I wanted to tell him everything, but I couldn't. The only way for Patrick to move on and forget about mewas to break his heart. At least one of us can be happy. I'll pray that he replaces peace and happiness inhis life.

Meanwhile, Patrick barely managed to make his way back to his mansion. He retrieved a file from hissafety deposit box.

Inside was the deed to the land in the eastern district, where a successful shopping mall and high-endhotel had been built. Both establishments were up and running smoothly, with thriving businessoperations.

“Give this to Gwendolyn. Tell her it's my dowry to her.”
