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 serve
no 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 he
still remembers it. It should also be an unforgettable night for him, right? At least he'll remember that
someone 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 own

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 become
overwhelmed. His mouth filled with the metallic taste of blood while tears welled up in his eyes. Even
his nose began to tingle.
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 side
to her.
Patrick turned away from Gwendolyn, his steps faltering as he fought to maintain his balance. Leaning
against the nearest wall, he steadied himself, taking a few deep breaths to gather his composure. It
took 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 she
observed 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 already
begun 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 as
straight 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 respective
hardships 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 reality and hold ourselves back. I had hoped that Gwendolyn would find
happiness and be spared from marrying Zayden, especially since Patrick showed up. She has faced so
many hardships, and finding the man she loves was no easy task. But alas, they cannot be together. It

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, and
I 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 me
was to break his heart. At least one of us can be happy. I'll pray that he finds peace and happiness in
his life.
Meanwhile, Patrick barely managed to make his way back to his mansion. He retrieved a file from his
safety deposit box.
Inside was the deed to the land in the eastern district, where a successful shopping mall and high-end
hotel had been built. Both establishments were up and running smoothly, with thriving business
operations.
“Give this to Gwendolyn. Tell her it's my dowry to her.”
