Chapter 673 Poor Gwen

Lucy was caught by surprise, and she uttered apologetically, “Gwen, I didn't know they would be here.I'm so sorry.”

“It's all right. After all, he has forgotten all about me.” Gwendolyn flashed a smile.

With that, she stepped forward, glanced at the dishes on the table, and smiled. “We've known eachother for a long time, haven't we? Do you guys mind my presence? If you do, I'll treat you guys to ameal next time.”

As expected of a CEO. Although she was stuck in an awkward situation, she could still react gracefully.

If they were not to welcome her presence, they would look petty.

Right then, Kevin rose to his feet and pointed at an empty seat across the table. “We're honored tohave you join us, Ms. Ashton! Please, have a seat!”

With that, Kevin cast an indifferent glance at Patrick. Let's see if Pat has really forgotten about Gwen. Ifhe has, there's hope for Jocelyn! Also, it would be a situation worth celebrating!

Meanwhile, Lucas looked utterly innocent when he saw Lucy glaring at him. What did I do wrong? Iinvited her, but she was the one who brought Gwendolyn along.

In truth, it wasn't a big deal because they could still have a meal together as friends.

However, putting Gwendolyn and Patrick together in a room was a recipe for disaster, considering theirrelationship now.

Lucy sat next to Gwendolyn and turned toward the latter. “Gwen, if you don't want to go through this,let's just leave together. We can have dinner ourselves.”

“It's okay. I like it here.” Gwendolyn flashed a sweet smile. I'm no longer the center of his attention, butat least I can see him. Unlike before, he's cold and expressionless. He hasn't even spared me a glanceever since I arrived.

Patrick poured himself a glass of wine and uttered, “I'm glad to see everyone here. Thank you foreverything you guys did over the past few months.”

With that, he clinked glasses with everyone.

Gwendolyn took a sip of the wine and furrowed her brows. Woah... This wine is too strong.

That was her first time drinking white wine because Patrick had always stopped her from drinking thatin the past.

Now, however, no one would stop her from doing anything anymore.

Lucy noticed the frustration in Gwendolyn's eyes, but she couldn't deny that it was an awkwardencounter. That's especially the case for Gwen. The man she loves the most has forgotten about her.Heck, he doesn't even notice her presence anymore. It's as though they're complete strangers to eachother.

“Gwen, don't drink so much of the wine. Eat more food instead,” Lucy urged. After all, all the dishesPlatinum Plate serves are delicious. Besides, commoners usually can't get a reservation. The members

here are prioritized, and only those with status are eligible. Since we're already here, we should at leasthave a nice dinner.

Lucy went on to pile food onto Gwendolyn's plate, even when it was already close to overflowing.

As Lucy did that, Lucas stared at her fixedly with his brows furrowed. What's with this woman? Is shetrying to finish all the food to compensate for the awkward atmosphere? Having said that, she's soadorable!

His gaze was becoming increasingly heated by the second. The moment Lucy noticed his intensegaze, she retracted her hand and stopped what she was doing.

After that, she glared at him and silently challenged his intention. What on earth is he staring at? Hashe not seen a pretty girl before? Could it be that he's trying to stop us from eating?

When Gwendolyn looked down and saw the amount of food before her eyes, she held her foreheadand asked in bafflement, “Luce, what made you think I could finish all this?”

That was a question she had asked Patrick in the past, and as soon as those words fell, he cast aglance in her direction before averting his gaze in the next second. He served Jocelyn some food andsaid, “Jocelyn, you ought to eat more. You're too skinny.”

Jocelyn was shocked because she didn't expect him to serve her food.

Letting out a chuckle, she uttered, “Oh, okay. You should also eat more. You've just recovered, so youneed your nutrients. Also, you shouldn't drink so much wine.”

As she spoke, she took his glass of wine and said to the others at the dining table, “I'll drink his wine forhim.”

Upon hearing that, Patrick met her gaze with a hint of a smile in his eyes.

Kevin couldn't help holding his forehead when he saw that. I feel so bad for Gwen!
