Chapter 52

After arriving at the fourth floor, Alice took the elevator down. Her housekeeper and Felicia immediatelypanicked.

“Old Mrs. Lowen, where are you going?”

“Be careful, Old Mrs. Lowen.”

They followed her to the third floor. Alice searched everywhere, but the boys were nowhere to befound.

Disappointed, she came to a stop. Shortly after, Felicia and the housekeeper caught up to her.

“Old Mrs. Lowen, slow down. Be careful not to trip yourself.”

Her housekeeper held her arm, afraid that she'd walk away any minute.

Alice let out a disappointed sigh. I yearn for a great-grandchild too much. Even the sight of childrenresembling Pat made me think that they were his children. I must be crazy, for that's impossible. Pat's asmart boy. He'll know if he gets a woman pregnant. Besides, he had remained single all over the years.Gwen's the only exception, but unfortunately, she already has children.

As a grandmother, she didn't want her grandson to get a divorced woman with three kids. Patrick wastoo outstanding a man to settle down with a woman like that.

Felicia's lips curled up as she asked, “Old Mrs. Lowen, are you tired? Should we have some teatogether?”

It suddenly occurred to her that Alice was too old to be going shopping. Thus, she changed her plansand suggested taking Alice to tea.

Alice wasn't in the mood for shopping anymore. Misery crept up her heart as she thought of Patrick'smarriage and Hector's illness.

“Let's head back,” she ordered calmly.

Hearing that, the housekeeper pulled out her phone to inform the driver to pick them up at theentrance.

Despite her dismay, Felicia dared not voice her objection.

She followed Alice back to the Lowen residence.

Meanwhile, Gwendolyn arrived at the pawnshop and showed her ring to them.

“How much can I get if I were to pawn this ring?” she asked.

After checking online, she found out that the diamond was expensive, so she'd get around two million ifshe were to sell it. However, she only needed five hundred thousand to treat Melanie's condition.

The staff took her ring and examined it under the UV light.

He then headed into the shop to inform his boss. Soon, his owner came out to greet Gwendolynpersonally.

“Miss, we can offer two hundred thousand for this ring,” he said.

Gwendolyn shook her head. “Five hundred thousand.”

The owner took another look at the ring and responded, “Then we can't take it.”

Gwendolyn retrieved the ring and gripped it in her palm. I checked and confirmed it's worth two million.How could they offer me only two hundred thousand? That's too little. They are clearly trying to rip me

off, but I'm not a fool.

Hence, she stood up and left the pawnshop to head to the elevator.

Gwendolyn had never wanted to sell the ring, not even when she was at the toughest point of her life.However, she made up her mind to pawn it after seeing Melanie and Lucy's plight to help them out.

It was more important to save Melanie's life than wait for that scum to replace her.

She had waited for years, but the scum never showed up.

Sometimes, she couldn't help but wonder if she was hallucinating or if the man had indeed existed. Sixyears later, all she had for him was pure hatred.

That was why she decided to pawn the ring in exchange for money. She scrutinized the ring carefully.Hmm, I wonder if other pawnshops will give me a better price?

Right before she put the ring back into her bag, a man appeared out of nowhere and snatched the ringfrom her.

At once, Gwendolyn went after the thief. Alas, she was wearing heels and sprained her ankle. As aresult, she failed to catch up with him.

Breathless with anger, she burst into tears. How could the thief do this to me? I need the ring to saveMelanie's life!

When Gwendolyn called for help to catch the thief earlier, a crowd had gathered. The security guardalso showed up and led her to the security room. He showed her the surveillance footage andconfirmed the footage containing the thief.

“Miss, we've gotten his photo. We'll hand it to the police and inform you when he has been arrested.”
